Nabokov's Laura; to burn or not to burn?

[sparkchaser]

Understood. They are a wily bunch over there and the talks do tend to get spirited - especially when Sir Chris is involved. It's definitely no place for someone with a thin skin. Plus moto smells like cabbage. And they have that dark orange shag carpeting that looks dirty no matter how many times you vacuum it.

Just some wilted daisies on the stoop. And some skunk cabbage in the back.

Wilted daisies eh?

Billy forgot to water them.


But I digress...this is about Nabakov's Laura and, to a lesser extent, whether Pontalba will break down and read it or not.

Funny, I didn't even have you in mind when I posted that; it was just a general observation about the people that frequent The Hen House - they all seem to love a rough and tumble "debate".

I'll read it. The forbidden fruit is the tastiest fruit. Unless you're allergic to fruit.

 

[pontalba]

Still, you haven't invited them to THH?!! For shame!

SIL knows better.

1. Nabokov

2. Oy!

Definite pass on THH for me!

Make that a double pass.

For shame on me. Stewart will rap my knuckles for this indiscretion later.

 

[pontalba]

I've been condemned to Hell and appear to have developed a bad case of Stockholm syndrome.

However - on a brighter note - I've recently read a really, really good book that I'm going to do a search for here.

Details woman! Wotcha readin'?

Selling tickets? :innocent:

Of course I'm only asking because it ties in with Laura, and Nabokov.

Peder ,you are really confusing me,you are passing on a reply about a person having thin skin to debate and discuss,which is exacly what THH is, I see you back out of every time you are confronted with something and you blame it (again another innuendo) on "being sent to the Suggestion Thread if you do reply.

I really wish you can say all of what you need to say and not leave your "Lest I get referred to the Suggestions again" remarks. (which I reffered you to if you had a problem with any Moderator)When I said this to you ,I said it to you,if you need to say something to me,say it to me.

If you have a problem with a certain Mod,there is administration to complain to. You can reply to anything in this forum,it's childish of you to say you will be sent to the Suggestion Thread,really now.

If that's debate, this place is a kindergarten playground.

Yes, not why I come to the Internet at all.

Oh! Is there something in the rules that a poster cannot quote a post unless it is directed at that poster?

I think Peder can talk for himself,do you always have to tag team?
or don't you think he can handle it?
