Everything known about you suggests a man who stinks. And you do in fact stink. So I was right.

Y'all got more of them selfies? I'm curious, let's keep this going |
|
Whenever you wear that hat I think of you as the worst member of a British colonial safari.
|
I like the hat though. It fits your beard for some reason
|
Gotta keep the sun off that pale skin when you're trolling the playground for a girlfriend.

Thank you all for your kind remarks, and for skirting around the natural reaction, which happens to me every time I look in the mirror: Wow that guy's old!
|
You look like a great person to browse a used bookstore or share a pot of coffee with
|
Does that mean he's interesting enough to pass the time during a boring activity but not so interesting that it distracts from the boring activity? Don't get me wrong I love a used book store but to me that's a single person activity cause having someone else there I'm talking to will ruin the concentration I need to properly peruse used books and now I'm just pointing at random corny sci fi books and being like "Hey, doesn't that look like a corny sci fi book lol?" And **** sharing a pot of coffee.
|
Maybe it means that he's not a dunderhead who just wants to gawk at sci-fi books.
|
How are you supposed to browse books together though? The act of picking up a book, looking at it, reading the back cover, reading a page or two, etc, kind of forgoes a social aspect so for it to be a social thing you kind of have to not really be browsing in any meaningful way. I've done that at the Barnes and Noble at the mall while waiting for a movie to start with a friend but that's pretty shallow as far as book browsing is concerned, and consequently the activity of browsing books wasn't that interesting and I'm just looking for books as conversation starters.
|
"Have you read this one?"
"No what's it about." "It's about crawling through mud and existence etc." Don't blame the act to cover for your shallow friends. |
Bookshops are a solo activity
There’s nothing to talk about |

Ok well I like to browse used bookstores with company. And drink coffee. Not my fault you guys are bad conversationalists.
|
I don't know I just like to absorb myself in a used bookstore in a way that other people would be an intrusion. It would be less of a thing at a Barnes and Noble where the capitalist whore setting is whatever, but a used book store run by some person who just loves books and has a store dedicated to their passion just necessitates my full attention and **** you go away cause there are random gems to find that I just might want to be internally excited about all by my ****ing self until I get to the counter and nerd out with the proprietor.
|
Oh I see it's because you're so deep you can't formulate the words for us plebs.

I've listened to a lot more albums than I've read books because it takes generally less than an hour to listen to an album and I can do so on a much more casual basis than it takes to read a book, so there's way more of a chance at being able to talk about "that album over" than there is "that book over there".

you obviously never invested in speed-reading courses

Just take the speed and read, Batman, it's not that hard.
