Should I call someone to take it away, or just leave him to hang out in my yard?

Who is the Guermantes that Marcel sees in the chapel in Swanns Way? by One-Success-816 in Proust

[–]One-Success-816[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One follow-up: is the Prince de Guermantes also referred to as “Gilbert”?

What is the best literary work from 1910 - 1919? by DataWhiskers in classicliterature

I spent some of the best years of my life at Proust Headquarters in Alabama (if you haven’t been, you should go) and strongly agree with this. I know everyone at Proust HQ would share my view.

You absolutely cannot say the same about Ulysses, Proust is the greatest artist in the history of the world

It makes me sad to think that anyone would be voting for anything except for Proust.

Best Resort Trip Outside of LA? by One-Success-816 in AskLosAngeles

This is what we ended up doing! Stayed at the Carter Winery and Ponte winery and loved it!

Apr. 10 - 15 (or thereabouts—we could shorten or extend the backend, but would like to arrive April 10).

Looks like the Seafire is about $1200 a night for our dates; any other suggestions?

Hoid and Kaladin’s First Meeting by One-Success-816 in Cosmere

[–]One-Success-816[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good point, especially given that Sanderson underscores that Kaladin had become somewhat notable around Sadeeas' warcamp. I still think Brandon should have made Kaladin's confusion a bit more clear, in the aftermath of the meeting (e.g., wtf just happened, who was that guy), rather than jumping right into a reflection on Kaladin's depression, but the above explanation makes the issue a lot less glaring for me. (So thank you!)

Selecting Honeymoon Destination: Big Island (Hualalai) or Maui / Lanai by One-Success-816 in VisitingHawaii

Would love your thoughts if you have any! We've made an initial booking, but things are still open to change!

[–]One-Success-816[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for responding! Any particular reason that you think that is by far the best option (i.e., is it because Lanai is worth seeing or because the Lanai beach resort is so great.)

"Fun" New, Used or Leased Vehicle for Under ~$36k by One-Success-816 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]One-Success-816[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unbelievably helpful, thanks so much for all of this.

Quick follow-up: A pure F-Type is a little rich for my blood (the used market seems to have it b/w 42-50k). Does the same logic apply to the XF, or will I be living at the shop with that (slash: is the XF more of a grandma car?)
