    Why is it so bloody hard ..

    I'm another person that doesn't find many of the movies intended as comedy to be funny or enjoyable. I don't like slapstick. I can't make any recommendations.

    Want to know how many wpm you read? Click here!

    I scored very low but the material is boring and there was too much junk involving numbers. I can't read "numbers" fast - if I read them too fast I will likely miss their meaning. I don't know about anyone else but I read significantly faster when I'm reading something that interests and/or...

    Pointless question time!

    Roll tongue, turn tongue over in either direction, pat my head and rub my tummy at the same time and then switch hands, and other useless feats of coordination.

    Can you ever catch up or is it a losing battle?

    I know the feeling. There's dozens hundreds of books I would like to read. Wanting to read something new doesn't necessarily stop me from rereading something though. Personally I don't think about how much I have read and how much more I have yet to read, rather I focus on what I want to read...

    Need Help 2 Select A Good Manga!!!

    Blade has some beautiful graphics. I have 13 of the 14 released trade paperbacks. It's by far my favorite manga. :)

    spamming/hijacking?

    This is the way I see it: Spamming - posting nothing in relation to what anyone else has said, including those who are off topic. Random comments for the sake of getting attention or/and boosting post count. If the thread is about beer and I were to comment that you smell like poopie - that...

    what's everyone up to today?

    Today has given way to night - I'm preparing to hunker down in bed with a book and a cup of tea. Eventually I'll go to sleep.

    anywhere at anytime!

    Parents that let their children run wild without consideration for others. My 3 yr old is a big guy and is sometimes mistaken for being older but that's no excuse at all for other kids on the playground screaming at him to run, as though he should join their game, and then ploy right into him...

    General Chat Divided - Yay or Nay

    I voted "nay". I don't think it'll solve anything. PM people, PM mods, start a new thread, drag the discussion back on topic.

    Say something to the people

    Now that you've hurt my feelings I don't want to sit next to you either. Ha!

    I just finished reading...

    I just finished reading Peer Gynt. I'm sure there's some important intellectual message in the writing but I haven't bothered with thinking about the meaning of the events. It was amusing and interesting. I'm not accustomed to reading plays though, so I did struggle a bit to get through it.

    Say something to the people

    Aww. That's just so sad. I'll join you for moral support but I'll probably just sit on the ground eating orange popsicles. :p

    Say something to the people

    Licorice is supposed to help prevent gingivitis and plaque formation. Being naturally sweet, licorice tea requires no cavity promoting sweeteners and it's completely free of caffeine. It's not just an indulgence, it's good for you. :D *disclaimer - too much licorice is said to cause...

    Adaptations

    A friend of mine has been enjoying titles from Graphic Classics. I haven't checked any of them out personally but they have a pretty good selection of authors and stories.
