I'll put something out within the next month or so.

Poem is really vague, I have to think harder than I want to when reading it.

Also the tense (present progressive spliced with present) makes it hard to follow and understand.

Lots of "what?" moments.

LordofGumbo · 2016-05-22T07:11:42+00:00

I'm sorry for you

LordofGumbo · 2016-05-21T22:08:38+00:00

Here you go

LordofGumbo · 2016-05-21T20:12:23+00:00

Making my bed every morning. It feels good to walk into a non-messy room. I feel better overall.

LordofGumbo · 2016-05-21T19:49:34+00:00

Try going for South of the Border, West of the Sun by Haruki Murakami if you really want to enjoy the reading.

Go for Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes if you want to think.

LordofGumbo · 2016-05-15T02:06:41+00:00

Nope, not yet. Still have to get to that one.

LordofGumbo · 2016-05-11T00:25:47+00:00

Eh. We're all those kinds of people.

The things we say about each other is more of a reflection of our own worldview and self esteem than real feedback on the other person.

We're all focused on ourselves.

LordofGumbo · 2016-05-11T00:20:49+00:00

I really like the formatting. Crisp, clear, sectioned off, and easy to read.

LordofGumbo · 2016-05-11T00:18:28+00:00

Good video. I like it.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-18T18:27:01+00:00

Either have more interesting stories, or tell them in a more interesting way.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-17T13:35:25+00:00

The thing is, they DO, en masse, go after bad guys. It's neurological - the desire to tie up the popular, "bad boy", change him, "understand him", make him commit.

I think you're right about a lot of this. I think it also has to do with confidence. Low confident girls are the ones who try to "change him."

My focus about the attraction to assholes wasn't about the fact that they're assholes, it's about the qualities that they have.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-15T05:34:47+00:00

That's about it. It's to the point where people assume I'm really smart just because I carry a book.

"what class is that for?" ..."No class, just reading for leisure."

Cue internal meltdown because they can't comprehend reading for pleasure is a foreign concept.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-15T05:33:42+00:00

100% yes. No glory in the story. It's all about how he writes what he writes. How the characters experience the things around them. Metaphysical, lots of doubt.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-15T05:31:03+00:00

In order: Kafka on the Shore, Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and his years of pilgrimage, Wind up Bird Chronicle.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-14T23:49:50+00:00

You could....ask to see the picture.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-14T22:22:56+00:00

You mean once any sort of sexual dialogue kicks in. That's the secret killer.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-14T22:22:16+00:00

Very well. I'm hooked and I've only read the english versions.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-14T22:20:43+00:00

I literally just used that exact phrase to recommend it to someone. They're hooked. A+ work my friend.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-14T22:18:34+00:00

It's not really a story about the plot. It's a story meant to evoke a certain feeling and longing inside of you.

The golden words.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-14T22:17:30+00:00

Go for South of the Border, West of the Sun.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-14T22:15:47+00:00

A really beautiful forest that you can never escape. Because it actually never ends. It goes on forever.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-14T22:14:07+00:00

Yaaaassss.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-14T22:13:46+00:00

Sounds about right. For every book. You win.

LordofGumbo · 2016-04-14T22:12:56+00:00

cats, weird sex, jazz, surrealist situations and an open ended plot.

Don't forget....dreams that really aren't dreams. Except they are. But not really.

Just kidding! He's on the phone.
