  There’s a special place in hell for people who ruin a book for a meme.

  Is basically the same place where the deep-shit who burned books are roasted inside boilers. But you just stay outside, tied to a confortable door watching them burn from porthole of the hatch. Then once in a while a big green like button lit up and a steam of vapor boils your face.

    Mass printed paperbacks aren’t sacred texts. Everyone should feel free to write on them, highlight them, cut them apart, paint on them, and make art with them. Especially books made by a trash bigot.

      Mmm… ok… then he sit a bit backwards and the steam cook a chicken instead of his face. But he’s hungry, and no chicken.

      History of evil is something we need as well. If nothing as an example of what we can become if we didn’t keep our shit in check.

    your enthusiasm for protecting books is commendable, but not all books deserve your reverence. Mein Kampf comes to mind, and some more recent books that only spread hate and prejudice.

    Book could have already been damaged to be fair. Does it matter if it’s just ruining it more?

    Have you ever read a Clive Cussler novel? That shit is everywhere and they’re objectively terrible. I would not shed a single tear for the smug fuck who wrote them if all his books got bean stains on them.

      I like Clive Cussler novels and I still agree with you, lol. They’re stupid fun, a cross between James Bond and Indiana Jones but not quite as good as either.

    Captivating fanfic of Harry Potter. lol

    50 shades of grey was originally a fanfic of twilight.

    Not every book written is a literary masterpiece.

    Looks like it might be AI to me. Check the right hand and the bit of book near it.

      This is AI psychosis in the opposite direction.

    Same with wasting food.

  I had a lot of nose bleeds as a kid, so my sister would never let me borrow her books because I’d always give them back with drops of blood on random pages.

    it’s just because you were growing your brain with all that knowledge.

    she was just jealous and didn’t want you to get smarter than her.

  Is a first edition of Harry Potter actually valuable?

  source

  • Grimy@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    The first few are 10k and up. The first one had like 500 printed only at first. After the third or so, they become much less valuable.

  Contrariwise there is a certain synergy being a book boy and bidet boy

  Sometimes when I do this, I imagine an archaeologist finding my book millennia from now and surmising my diet from the accidental smears.

  “We have found that Canadians circa 2000-2050 enjoyed a diet that included tangerines and microwave burritos”

  It’s easier, just glue the already read pages with chicken, euh, gluyey.

  I’m sure you simply missed it and this is just a mistake but this was already posted on lemmy. Please be more careful in the future.
