Date: May 16th, 2012 9:49 PM Author: Fear-inspiring histrionic cuck forum Viewed negatively:
- Comics - Printed porn kept in visible locations (unless this is a bachelor pad) - Romance novels or other trashy pulpy fiction - Shitty pop culture magazines
There's no such thing as too many books as long as the residence isn't made slovenly by them |

The books tell you that I'm smart enough to know that books represent the proposition that I'm smart. |

Most people who have no books visible anywhere don't read jack shit. Joe 6 Pack has probably never finished an entire book in his lifetime aside from "See Spot Run". |
