@DestryBrod @hulsopp3 If you're a 19th century steel worker, probably.

@TheNeedling You spelled my name wrong in that quote.

[AMC @cashmonger]

@jseattle But it is loud.

@rhymeswithleia I taught myself with my mother's 1930's era typing book and it was probably one of the best decisions I've ever made. Such a useful skill.

@BAPostmaisdead Yep, you got me. Running off to cancel Nabokov and ban some books right now!!

@ReReadingWolfe I think Wolfe could have found more elegant ways to show Severian's immaturity about women and found some way to humanize Jolenta. Which is a compliment, really -- the clumsy parts of the book (books?) jump out at me because of the unclumsiness of most of it (them)?.

@HistoryGonzo @mhjb @ReReadingWolfe How can you not see them? They're as big as melons. Each one is as big as her head. Her spine is probably aching trying to support them (to be fair -- the last one is a reason people get breast reductions).

[AMC @cashmonger]

@BAPostmaisdead And I can't imagine living in a mindset where I can diagnose someone's entire thought process about literature from one quickly written sentence. But that's twitter for you.

[AMC @cashmonger]

@ReReadingWolfe The narrator, who was created by the author, along with every word he says, therefore the author. And yes, each one is "as big as her head", though I'm not sure how the narrator knows that since he never looks that far up.

@NWSSeattle Knock on wood when you post stuff like this, OK. Otherwise, it'll be another 100+ heat dome before you know it.

@_Nic_Diamond_ That's so sweet! I'm pretty sure kid me would have loved audiobooks if they'd been around.

[AMC @cashmonger]

@aeirlys I mean, why???? I was especially disappointed because the narrator for the first book was so good.

@thejasonkirk I was just thinking today how the extent of my bird knowledge is that I can tell a bird from a fish. Not sure about frogs though.

@mpgPhD "The question is moot!"

[AMC @cashmonger]

@BrotiGupta What are you rebelling against?

What do you got?

@kohidave Been there! I have had good experiences calling those nurse telephone lines insurance sometimes has. It's a good alternative to the internet telling you that, yes, that bump on your arm is definitely going to kill you.

@emilystjams Also, there are other possibilities besides implosion. They could have floated up to the surface, or be tangled in something below the surface. This lays out the possibilities pretty well: https://t.co/lOofNj1voQ

@Subzidion Ha. I was just about to look to see if they'd posted mine.

@CheezieBreezie All my ads are for bras designed for small boobs. They're right that I have boobs. Way off on the size though.

@SheRidesABike I know next to nothing about jazz, but I like Blakey and the second I read this I felt like putting on "Mingus Ah Um" by Charles Mingus. So, that?
