I read a book by a well-known author and perhaps i picked the wrong one to start with but 100% of the characters in it were simply unlikeable. There were some good ideas in the book, but man, they could’ve all died at the end and i would have been fine with that.

I saw it in a theater and enjoyed it (because, yes, i knew those tropes) right up to the point where one of them asks “so what did your parents do to you?” I completely checked out right then and haven’t watched it since.

I super hope that kids deface every sign every time they get put up, forcing the schools to keep hanging new signs. Go kids.

I only ever saw it on a b/w TV, so assumed that the whole movie was color. Caught it on a TV in a common room in college and just thought it was a b/w TV as well until, whoa! Color!

As a self-published writer, whose latest book is his finest yet, he thinks the question exposes larger themes—themes that are explored to a satisfying conclusion in both of his last works (available at IndieBound)—through which his captivating prose puts him on par with other literary greats... no.

I have used a semicolon, in somewhere over 50 written pieces, exactly once. (In the story, anyway. It shows up a few times in the publishing block at the beginning of books.)
