It's a more real, tactile experience. I like the crisp black on white of the ink and paper, the feeling of holding the book in my hands and turning the pages. The Kindle (and other e-readers) are more cold and electronic. It's like the difference between baking a fresh baguette with water, yeast, salt, and flour, and buying an industrially made one from a chain supermarket full of preservatives and other shit.

They did not violate or even come close to the edge of the posted rules/ Unless someone is there to tell you how much you are loved, you do not want them there.

Success is simply not a word in your book. At least your handle makes sense. The forum is depressing and it makes sense for you to run it as simply a fuck with posters forum. I honestly believe you like it that way. Kimmo sure does. Delete - fuck with posters posts. Lock out the site to posting. Jam posters up. Again you idolize Kimmo and want to be his wanna be.
