Epic win, 4Chan. Epic win.

Is… is this the end of the debate?  I feel like if reform-haters read this, and thought about it, they’d have no arguments left.

Disappointed that no one named Eco’s “Foucault’s Pendulum,” which (I discovered when I recently re-read it) exemplifies one of the most crushing forms of literary badness: The Book That Can Only Be Read Once.

We’ve got a Kauri wood candle holder dated at over 30,000 years old, a present from a friend in NZ. It’s extremely tacky thanks to the cheap gold-metal fitting that’s been fastened into the candle hole. 33,000 years, and what is some lovely fine-grained wood got turned into artless cheap-looking tourist bollocks. There’s something profound in that about human nature.
