What books are you reading as an adult? Because this is one of the sillier things I've read today. Nearly everything I've read as an adult as meant more, delved deeper, and had a more lasting impact than any 'chuldren's book' I've read. Seriously, how are people starring this?

I couldn't disagree more. A few years ago, my friend remarked to me (in our late 20's) that he 'missed stories about good versus evil,' and that he was disappointed that things were so complicated these days. I was astonished — I absolutely loathe anything that dares to simplify to unambiguously good, or even worse,

Oh man, my list of influential books would all be grown up books! As a kid, I never put down a book after finishing and had to take a break from reading because my heart hurt or I was so drawn into the world I couldn't yet pull myself away.

Not true. Way to make excuses for not reading as an adult.

You're reading different grown-up books than I am.

I remember my first chuldren's book. It was ..... wait.

But didn't she only come at him after he hit her the first time?

Well she has managed to perfectly time the activities of her womb to best influence the vote for Scottish independence. That in itself is quite an achievement.

I'm trying to imagine this bike accident and I have to tell you, things are getting a little nuts!

It's because we all know that it's not actually that good, but we're attached to it anyways due to nostalgia and convenience. If there was actually something to defend, I might be more aggressive. I do take offence to the idea that it's worse than Dunkin Donuts though. Hell no. Tim's is passable in a pinch, but DD is

Dunkin' Donuts coffee AND donuts are complete shit: like a photocopy of a photocopy of a bad original. I take cans of Tim Ho's coffee as hostess gifts to my midwestern relatives, my nephew (all 6' of him) floats in the air with delight when he sees a box of TimBits. Before Tim's came to the U.S., the FIRST

No seriously dude, Dunkin is some terrible, awful, ridiculously terrible shit. I grew up in a fairly non-Timmified part of the country, so only came to Tim Hortons in my adult life. It is Americans who are wrong here.

It's not just Canadians who are obsessed with Tim Hortons. I moved to Ohio about 6 years ago and before that, I'd never heard of this establishment. But Ohioans are kind of nutty about their Tim Hortons, as well. More than one American citizen living in the state of Ohio has waxed poetic about Timbits or Tim Hortons

AGREED! I'm from Maine, where we have both, and Tim Hortons is just better. Dunkin used to have good donuts (or I used to be less discriminating in my taste, but I swear they changed something in the late 90s), but they suck now.

I am not Canadian,I do not drink coffee and I am horrified that there's an entire country that doesn't know how to drink iced tea. However, Timbits are amazing. Those doughnut hole at DD have nothing. There are seasonal Timbits that I consume like a soccer mom knowing the pumpkin spice latte will go away.

"For those Americans not yet familiar with Tim Hortons: it's basically like an infinitely shittier Canadian version of Dunkin' Donuts."

Nope. This is so wrong. I'm not Canadian, but A) Dunkin Donuts is the effing worst, & B) Tim Hortons is delicious.

I live in Massachusetts, the ancestral home of Dunkin Donuts, and I'd give up every single DD in the state for a single Timmy's. Timbits are godly and their mint hot cocoa is wonderful. That is all.

Okay, I'm neither American nor Canadian, but having lived in Canada for 10 years, I'd say Canada kicks American ass, and fuck a Starbucks.

of course it sucked, there was no Tatiana Maslany
