  1. After the explanation I still find you mysterious.
  2. Welcome. How did you get to your name?
  3. The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness - The National
  4. I'll consider books with at least 50 years, as a rule of thumb to consider pieces that have impacted and endured multiple generations. As a personal rule, it should also be a book that I read some years ago and still resides in my usual thoughts, creeping in while I'm daydreaming or thinking about a personal situation. I haven't read many of the books here mentioned, although it seems I have read most of the more often mentioned. Alphabetical order: "Crime and Punishment", Fyodor Dostoevsky "Jane Eyre", Charlotte Brontë "Wuthering Heights", Emily Brontë Like so many others here, I'm fond of gothic fiction.
  5. At the moment, I usually take a caffè latte for breakfast and an espresso after lunch. Sometimes I take an espresso and green tea for breakfast and another espresso or caffè latte later. What about black tea, you might ask, and that is a reasonable inquiry. P.S.: I also usually drink one or two cappuccino decafs at night.
  6. The title of this thread describes me as a person.
  7. My first action as Supreme Kaiser is to make the following decree: Mods, close this thread. My word shall be final.
  8. Der Ring des Nibelungen - Richard Wagner
  9. Shepherd of Fire - Avenged Sevenfold

  12. Let's pivot from all these sleepy songs with a classic banger. Kickstart my Heart - Mötley Crüe
  13. Regarding that last grand prix, I think it was unreasonable how Hamilton near the start simply cut through the chicane, gained an unfair advantage and the officials didn't demand him to return the place or give him a 5-second penalty at the box. https://youtu.be/7QJ-N-AQJYc?feature=shared&t=42
  14. Red Dead Redemption 2 introduced me to "Mountain Hymn". Nice voice.
  15. Your detective name: Viking November Your Superhero name: Black Chilly Your Rockstar name: Navy Blue Strange-Tailed Tyrant
  16. Conversely, you might get a groaning emo.
  17. This Haaland guy is like Uthred. Born in England and raised as a viking.
  18. Thanks for the answers, they are interesting. @lunababymoonchild thank you. I could try removing them partially. And if I don’t like empty shelves, I could also get smaller shelves. @Chrissy nice thought about the instinct. @Madeleine tastes change, and I have purchased too many books without having the time to read them or because they’re must-reads. Now I just buy one book at a time, when I want to read it, if I have time to read it. And still the book might not reach my expectations, and in those cases I don’t want them in my collection to give a false impression of my tastes. @poppy for years I’ve been thinking of an ebook reader, they seem practical.
