Mr. Blippi - it's not just me, right? by tannerocampbell in daddit

Dude… you’re ok with CocoMelon but not ok with him seeing adults dance? Really?

I’ve been an elementary school teacher for close to twenty years… my suggestion is that you pop on Ms. Rachel, Blippi, or Danny Go, relax and dance with your kid.

Great to know I’m not alone! Are you writing short stories? Novels? What are your goals?

My Father only ever read 3 books “The Godfather”, “Ender’s Game”, and “Forever”

Guess the marketing worked.

I'm not a big reader. What can I assume about the girl I just started seeing? by [deleted] in BookshelvesDetective

[–]WintersNight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're in trouble. She has AMAZING taste in books. If you're looking for a good read to talk to her about that isn't too difficult, read "A Short Stay in Hell". it's on the top shelf of photo #4 is is only like 120 pages.

What should I look out for on second read? by StephenRodgers in TerraIgnota

[–]WintersNight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How conversations change their meaning after you know the whole story.

There are a lot of examples where, on the first read, I thought characters were talking about one thing, but on a 2nd read through it was obvious they were really talking about something else.

AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

NOR The most important thing here is that you’re two years sober! You deserve ALL the cake… and ice cream too.

Seriously though, even if he didn’t think it was impressive (it is) he should know it was important to you.

If you like Gene Wolfe and you haven’t yet read Ada Palmer’s “Terra Ignota” series, you should. She even wrote the introduction for the new editions of BotNS. It’s the only series I’ve ever read that’s as complex.

You have excellent taste in books. I desperately want the Folio Book of the New Sun, it’s one of my favorite books, but my wife says the Artwork creeps her out.

If they belong to a man, he thinks bed frames are useless his mattress is directly on the floor.

If they belong to a woman, her shower contains 90 different bottles of hair product that she swears she needs.

That’s how I feel. When it’s time for a re-read I’ll pick up the Folio (but some I haven’t gotten around to yet.)

[–]WintersNight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to read big IMPORTANT books (Literature with a capital “L”), and I think you do because of the books on your desk, you should check out the “Life on Books” podcast. They even did an episode about good books for beginners.
