Explain yourself, faggot.

No, you're a pockethomo.

>pockets (whatever that means) and hardcover are the only choices
>he doesn't have all his books bound and customized with his own personal hardcovers containing his family crest
explain yourself poors
I don't buy books since I'm not a faggot, faggot.

>tfw having to hand-deface every single fabric crest after being officially disowned by my family
Really let it sink in
I value the content more highly than the cover and so just get the cheapest.

But i just wanted to fit in.
My life's more suited to paperback right now. Later on, if I get the big house with the big library, I'll start transferring shit to hardcover so I can be the big showoff I know I'll want to be
