The book is great. It's the best advice I ever had.

Oh sure,i was just being facetious, because the kind of person who seriously thinks they are better than hoi polloi also often shows themselves up for not fully understanding the phrase - because that kind of person is often also the kind of snob that would thnk it important to demonstrate their superior knowledge,…

I'd love to live in a Nordic country more than anything. Canada would work too, but much more difficult to get into. And I do love everything about Scandinavia, so I hope I'll be there in a year or two.
Also not cheap in any way, of course!

no need to say the hoi polloi. 'hoi' means 'the'. people who disparage hoi polloi should know their Greek :)

I lived in Switzerland for a while. It's great ! I'd love to go back with more money.

Kara & Leoben just have terrific chemistry. That whole paint sex dream thing was really hot.

Haha!

Reality's an illusion! The universe is a hologram!

I still mostly want Abbie and Ichabod to be a strong friendship, because not EVERY show has to be about a slow burning love story - but then again it would be cool of the show to do it just because Abbie is not white and Ichabod is. But I like them best as equals and friends, and I really don't want there to be a…

that is kind of a super hot thought. that's a threesome anyone would want to be part of.

A novelty account I can approve of.

I know it's silly of me to focus on romance, and possibly anti-feminist etc too when I should be looking at politics and overall storytelling. But I am so annoyed about the stupidity of the romance decisions they made it has soured the rest of it a bit for me. Partly that's because I don't have faith a series of…

It's really nice round there.

I was on board with that interpretation too, yeah.
