The Bookworms discussion

I'm sure that everyone has something they can't stand when it comes to books. I hate bent covers and creases. They seriously bug me so much.

Yeah, illusions in a book's physical appearance are not cool.

Ik. I hate it when the cover drawing looks unprofessional.

Liz, is that my cake pop?

I'm guessing Liz is asleep like a normal person.

Bibliophile or bibliomaniac?

Yup

It is your cake pop. Lemme say, yum!

Thanks. K

I hate it when the author's name is bigger than the title. I mean, I buy/borrow a book because I think it looks interesting, and the blurb sounds good. I do NOT read a book because I like the sound of the author's name. That would be stupid, even by my standards. I don't even agree with the practice when it's an author who's whole selling point is that they are that author (Stephen King, for example, could just fall asleep on the keyboard and still make top 100), because if I liked one of their books, I'm naturally going to want to read the rest. I'll look for it. No need to signpost. Oh, and the blurb goes on the back cover. Stop randomly putting it either on inside front cover, inside back cover, or not having one, and then putting quotes about your book on the back. I don't think I've ever picked up a book and said "Well, this looks awful, but the Telegraph (or some other newspaper) said 'a turning point in the history of space-ghost-detective stories' so it must be good!" NO BODY CARES WHAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE SAID, OTHER PEOPLE ARE IDIOTS.

Well, all I can say is that's how I feel. I'm going to do jigsaw puzzles on the National Geographic website until I feel I can continue being not-ranty-angry-Badgerlord.

If you're trying to pschoanalyse me, quit it.

And don't get condescending, either.

What does that mean?

It means I'm an idiot! Mwahahahahaha!!!!!!!

Randomness is big with us, and the population of us goes to show that things like that happen.

No, your not.

I know that, I think. I was joking around. I did put Mwahahahaha!!!!!!! After it.

Sorry, that is a math symbol, and I had to make it proportional.

I can delete it, if you want me to.

I don't see anything. Just blankness.

Oh? Your computer must work different. It looks like a fancy italic lowercase f with no straight lines.

Oh, I'm on an iPad.

You can leave it. I want to look at it when I get on a computer.

Ok.
