Just one pair to make me rethink my rent?

#11… why…

Isn’t that the mindset we want to change? Therefore the comments should be less about praising one size over another and celebrating health and beauty in general… not saying things like, “I’d rather have her than a bony girl,” or, “OMG yes she is overweight.”

Dont #3 and #4 contradict with #5?

I’m glad that they are using models of all sizes, but once again I am disappointed that a lot of the comments are praising her but bashing thin people/models. Some people are naturally small, and some are naturally bigger. I hate to be *that person* but we should be celebrating health, not size.

Sometimes these can be childish, but other times they can produce a great pairing of a great story with beautiful and wonderful artwork. This is not always a case of handing every little detail to the reader. Who is to say what constitutes “great literature” for every single person? Why does literature have to be delegated to lengthy prose or poetry?  Also, if it is a great story, who cares how it is delivered? Sometimes I want to read something great that isn’t necessarily a giant block of words or a well-written but wordy account.

#18 - This book is TERRIBLE. There is literally a two or three page passage where the protagonist checks his mail and balances his check book. About 50% of the book is just a group of people traveling to various bars or cafes to drink or eat, with little more description than “The beer was cold. It was good. They drank and then went to the cafe.” #34 - This essentially has the same plot as Ask the Dust by John Fante, written in 1939. A semi autobiographical tale of a young man traveling to Los Angeles in hopes of making it as a writer. I failed to finish reading On the Road because I had already read Ask the Dust and Ham on Rye which, though written later in 1982, also had the same plot.

Uh, is there really a difference between #21 and #5? Or how about #3 and #28? Also, #25 - that is NOT crochet at all.. that’s just yarn.

How do they know which people are dating and which are just friends trying to enjoy a ball game without awkwardness?
