I like reading.

This dude messaged me on kik last week and said he'd give me money and buy me clothes if I modelled then for him (I'm a guy and he's a closet gay). Then I convinced him to buy me a quarter ounce of marijuana wax (which is a pretty considerable amount of money) up front so I could "sell" it for him and split the profits with him, but I'm actually just going to take the wax, delete my kik and never talk to him again.

This is my most recent sin but I do a lot of weird stuff like this for money.

I found an ARC copy of some historical fiction novel. I contacted the publisher asking if they want it back.

They still haven't asked for it back.

I'm very OK with dog-earing my own books if the pages are thin. I'm also not fussed if the spine of the book creases.

I have War & Peace, Don Quixote, Anna Kerinininer, Masons & Dixons, Ulysses, Gravity's Rainbow, Infinjite JEst, Harry Potter & The ORder of the Pheonix all on the same shelf because I like big boogs all on one shelf and it looks like I really like reading big boogs.

My best was a gay prostitute for like 2 years, and he made $100 per session to let dudes in their thirties blow him while he kept his eyes closed. That's too weird for me and I could never do that. If some dumass weirdo messages me on social media and acts all predatory though, I feel like it's morally permisable for me to separate him from his money.

I was a big fan of Dan Brown when I was 16.

Better at 16 than in your 40s like most of the people who bought Da Vinci Code.

I remember that shit, plenty of TV specials suggesting that the book was based within fact rather than fiction. Irritated the hell out of me.
>>
Books I hate go in the bin.

Ethically speaking, you shouldn't be allowed to charge people for books or literature within the public domain.
>>
>>8009204
I read fragments of the Da Vinci Code, I didn't like it. At the time the book I read was Angels&Demons, and I was impressed by the many reference (false culture) of the book. Years after I gave the book to my mother because she still is a big fan and has all his books.

>>8009227
Dan Brown really scored a jackpot back then. I don't know if it's just luck or part of a plan, but pretty sure the author got shit load of money out of the trade.
>>
>>8009081
I masturbate into library books; only classical Greek literature though.
>>
>>8009251
but they put their money into printing and shipping and shit. Even if they host it on a server or something, there are still electric cost, etc. Sure I agree public domain should be free of charge but people have to pay the transportation cost or no one is going to do the job and the lit would stuck dead in some forgotten pit.

A book that creates controversy is a book that sells, whether the book is good or bad. Also atheist books where at their peak at the time.
It was the "right book" at the right time.
Nowadays it'd go fairly unnoticed.
>>
>>8009122
Same, I kinda think that if the spine of a book doesn't have any creases then it's probably never been read. I'm not saying the spine needs to be so heavily creased that it loses any structure integrity, but a light crease is fine
>>
I had, and have, an extremely potent fap fantasy that centers around Martin Luther and heavily involves my fetish.

I'd love to seduce and make love to a sexually repressed Ayn Rand. Make her come out of her shell when she's with me. Make her want to be pretty for me.

I write poetry that comes off as deep and complex but is really just a mask for my own aspirations, entertainment, and secrets. Every character and plot is taken from an anime, book, or vidyagame that I twisted to fit my own narrative.

A recent example (which you guys praised exercepts from over in the critique threads) is really just a combination of FFVII, FFXIII, Gurren Lagan, a guro fetish.

I read genre fiction to literature on something like a 10:1 ratio, and unironically enjoy urban fantasy paranormal detectives.

I read the Harry Potter series something like 5 times through completely as a kid.

I am addicted to porn and only come here for the company even though I despise almost every post I see. It's comfortable.
Also I bullshit about philosophers I've never read and even engage in specific arguments with people about certain areas of philosophers' works and tend to do quite well by being insulting and obfuscatory

>as a kid.
Nothing wrong with that. Hell, I'm even okay with teen girls liking Twilight because at least they're reading something. It's the adults that are still into YA or kid stuff that are a problem.

Either you post here a lot, or there are many other posters like you.

I fap to Totally Spies.

ARC? Also, which novel?

>>8010367
You know it's me if whenever it starts to look as though I'm not winning the argument I turn to the 'all is subjective, nothing is knowable' or 'its all interpretation' and choke hold them with it while being mean until they give up or til it just becomes a pure shit throwing contest

i like to read crossdresser porn stories

How about this. I read the first 3 twilight books in about 6 days, most of which were school days in 8th grade. That was before the 4th one came out.

I get triggered if I see a book in the bathroom because I know you've been reading on the toilet and now that book is completely tainted with poo particles fused into the paper and should be burned.
