Today we’re preoccupied with getting rid of the Tories – so finally we’ll be able to unite in celebrating 4th July!

What about the comic made you think it was implying that?

Neato :3

yikes

What kind of music do you play? Big fan of a few bands with prominent mandolin, so curious :)

love of the Mexican currency.

I’m not particularly bothered; this seems just semantics to me. Depends on if you view ‘hiding on the other side of the cylinder’ as being too far away to see. I don’t think it is, but if you feel differently that’s fine.

Not necessarily. A surface (e.g. a cylinder) isn’t ‘flat’ in our dimension, but is 2D

For what it’s worth, I think it’s an excellent horror novel told from the perspective of an unreliable narrator.

I would not describe it as a great romance novel.

“There are two books whose final lines make me cry without fail, irrespective of how many times I read them,” Rowling told BBC Radio 4. “One is ‘Lolita.’”

(The other one, based on the context of the interview, seems to be “Emma.”)

Like many other admirer’s of Nabokov’s novel of a pedophile who pursues a 12-year-old girl, Rowling loves it for the writing style.

“There just isn’t enough time to discuss how a plot that could have been the most worthless pornography becomes, in Nabakov’s hands, a great and tragic love story, and I could exhaust my reservoir of superlatives trying to describe the quality of the writing,” she said.

I don’t think anyone is telling you that you have to find her attractive? It’s more a complaint at those people who say that she’s unrealistic as a love interest and that no-one could be attracted to her, which is simply hypocritical misogyny.

WRT the last paragraph, I’ve always liked James Joyce’s love letters. Sex and body image has become far too sanitised in media in my view.

RIP Graham Chapman. Well worth reading his Wikipedia page – of all the pythons it’s tragic that he died so young

For balance: I think it would be funnier if it was more horny. The bulge on the deer was far too small.

He boots too big

Someone read the prince :P

Aw come on; I wouldn’t expect you to know about the BOFA plan

Thanks. I am not American, and hence the federal nutrition programme went over my head.

Thanks
