that chink needs to fuck off my books sparks joy even if I’ve finished them
she do know how to fold clothes doe

>>15466909
If I follow her advice, I get to keep my holy book, the Bible, and history and science books that I deem to be most essential to my writing inspirations. Having thirty books is still very constricting for me, though. I have not numbered my entire collection, but I probably have closer to double that number, plus more. I wonder if in a few years I will have the amount of a hundred books?

>>15466909
She's directionally correct that you will only be referencing a few dozen books again in your life unless you're a writer or anademic

>>15466999
>... unless you're a writer or anademic
>anademic
Why not just call it analdemic?

>>15466853
it's cute and all, but i just use my uni's library and the limitless of internet to download into my kindle
maybe i would want to have few books that i can't find in internet but i don't see why i would buy books that are for free in the internet

>>15466853
Are you trying to tell us something with your little owls, OP?

literally just saw this posted in a different thread >>15464979 and find it relevant.

i would kill to have a real home library. this dumb bitch >>15466909 should khs

>>15466853
imagine living in a cozy home like this and not in a empty apartment in a huge city like a rat colony or something like that
i hate how much of a student i am
i wish i could go back home after an exhausting day of uni and be comfy like this
i wish i had a comfy armchair like this
i wish i wasn'r living cramped with hundreds of people fighting for their lives
why big city living so much like insect living? i have fucking nothing other than "i need to have a degree"

>>15466853
i fucking hate the major European city bourgeois flats with tons of books. All my friends' parents' places have l'être et le néant for everyone to see yet they're fucking physicians or architects and couldn't explain a paragraph of Descartes. goes on my nerves

>>15467158
yeah it blows, im not even a student anymore but all day its construction noise, all night its neighbors blasting subwoofers, go to the park and its full of noisy niggers. cities are schizo hives

>>15466853
Only books you actually have to have is The Holy Bible and the constitution of your country.

Everything else is a bonus and flies with me.

>>15467184
I own neither of those but I own all 5 asoiaf books.

>>15467211
Dang.

You should get murdered or something.

>>15467225
Hmm, I don't wanna die tho. I own Madame Bovary, does that balance it out?

>>15467244
Oh God, you really have to die now.

>>15467253

>>15467184
imagine believing a bunch of lies on a piece of paper mean anything.

>>15466853
I hope so.

>>15467762
grow up

>>15466853
not as much as IJ

>>15466853
It was to the man who got me kicked out of my home and caused me to become homeless for two years

>>15467184
That's a great way to stay spooked.

>>15466853
Just imagine how much this must cost? I just spent $150 on like 6 books, that is a fucking pittance. Why are books still so expensive anyways? Its literally just paper. And the bookshelf, that alone would easily cost over $1000. What in the actual fuck. I will say though that it does look pretty, but is it really worth it?

why is this board so garbage now

>>15468469
>I will say though that it does look pretty, but is it really worth it?
You answered your own question.

Is having a large home a provocation?

>>15467184
>Your rights being on a piece of paper means your government follows them
Or maybe you meant that people should know their rights, in which case yeah that's fine.

>>15468490
been garbage for the past year or so

>>15466853

I love to collect books, but I primarily read all of them on my Kindle. It's just easier and more pleasant. I get to zone out a bit more and put myself in the scene more with them.

>>15467762
Euphoric moment

>>15466872
XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD OOOOO MAAAA GOOOOODD AHHHEHEHEHE!!!! XD XD

>>15467184
What about these nuts on your chin?

>>15466853
I don't mind at all. If someone actually owns decorative additions, I'll actually be impressed. And if you actually read, I'll be personally interested in you. You have no idea how sick I am of the cookie-cutter masses.

Glad i got out of the megacity literally the month i finished my studies.

>>15468469
If it's just paper why don't you just buy printer paper? It's fat cheaper :)

>>15466853
For the weak minded. Only person to ever acknowledge my library is my low self esteem retarded bi-polar sister in law. Any knowledge outside of a classroom is unknown to her. I told her about terrorism in certain African countries by al-Shabab and she wanted me to give her a study proving it.

wat

>>15467184
>the Bible is a book
It is a library dumbass

>>15470328
ni hao

>>15466909
Gay as fuck, better to let your floor be covered in books, have books stacked up to the ceiling, use stacks of books as end table, etc

>>15466853
If you read a book a week then you have 52 books a year, 520 books in 10 and 3120 books in 60. Having a library at home becomes a necessity if someone wants to actually keep them. Why would it be a provocation? It simply is the outcome of reading a lot.

>>15466921
Wikipedia's quality issues start to show after reading the EB in my experience.

Knowing your rights means nothing if you not also own a gun and have a lawyer

>>15466853
when I run out of space for books I just burn the oldest ones

>>15472687
