| | trevoramueller | Here's a cameo appearance of Seiko from Used Books. Granted, she's not necessarily dressed or acting like she would in that comic (nor is the book store in a mall), but I thought this would be a good chance for the first Drunk Duck cameo for this comic.
Also note that those items listed are all things that Laura does enjoy reading. ;) What kind of books do you all enjoy reading? -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: trevoramueller | | | Wow, work and the weekend were so busy, I didn't have any time to comment to people on Friday. Sorry about that, gang.
usedbooks: Yes, porn is a terrible gift (and yet everyone keeps encouraging Trevor to get it for Laura).
GTLB: Susie loves the porn...I mean, come on. She's technically undergoing puberty in many ways - she's got to be a canister of hormones just waiting to burst open!
Short_Circuiting: Ah yes, Akira was freakin' sweet. I should go out and buy those, since my first read through involved borrowing them from my neighbor. And by borrow, I mean steal - but I did give them back after I read them all. ;)
BetaJess: Neil Gaimen is awesome! Just about everything he's written is gospel as far as I'm concerned. Also, yes - I'd expect a girl to break up with me if I got her porn. Well, maybe I'd take some naked pictures of myself as a joke.... :P
kiandranishan: Interesting...a lady who wouldn't mind porn. If someone were to get it for you, however, would you feel that it was a "good gift?" I mean, maybe if it came with a card or something.... :)
harryq: Hell freakin' yes!
seventy2: I love his Ender series, but I haven't read anything else by him. Does that make me a bad nerd?
lba: I do enjoy some good graphic novels, and I tend to put them down on my wish lists...although no one gets them for me. Either they don't want to try to look for it, or they just don't know what they're looking for.
Jimeth: I feel, after graduating from college, like my intelligence has started to slip a little. I'm not cramming new information into the long term (or, more often than not, the short term) memory. Everything feels very fleeting and not important beyond the immediate need at hand.
kyupol: No fooling...everyone loves some good ol' fashion porn! :P
amanda: Ah yes, we've spoken about books before. Neil Gaimen is an awesome writer (be sure to thank Jess every day for introducing him to you), and George RR Martin sounds like a lot of fun.
Warpedwenger: Nope, i had no idea. ;) -Posted on Apr 07, 2008 | | User: Warpedwenger | | 5 | | I'm a Shonen Jump man! Oh you couldn't tell? -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: amanda | | 5 | | Yay for Seiko! My favorite book EVER is "House of Leaves" by Mark Z Danielewski. I like George R. R. Martin (got Jess hooked on him, haha), Neil Gaiman (Jess got ME hooked on him), Kate Elliot...My other favorites are "Tale of Two Cities" and "Wuthering Heights." Yep. -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: kyupol | | 5 | | thats a nice gift!!! -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: Jimeth | | 5 | I used to read tons and then I just ran out of stuff I was interested in reading. It's a shame because I think my intelligence is actually suffering as a result.
Last thing I read was Eric Clapton's autobiography. I'm not a big fan of his work but I love first hand accounts of the good old days of music. It's just not the same now... -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: lba | | | I love graphic novels and comics. They fill my entire closet. Particular favorites would be Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse and The Farside.
Porn would make the worst gift for anyone. -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: seventy2 | | 5 | orson scott card books....or anything of the likes....
and the ocasional porn... -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: harryq | | 5 | | H.P. Lovecraft. -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: kiandranishan | | 5 | I'd enjoy porn as a present...as long as it's good porn, no fake breasts *blegh*
I like scifi and fantasy, comics/graphic novels, anything about history, and books on religion. ^^
Oh, and porn. XD -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: BetaJess | | | I love fantasy novels. The Song of Fire and Ice series by GRRM. Anything written by Neil Gaiman. I'm also a sucker for old classics. "I Capture the Castle" is beautiful, and I'm currently reading "Wuthering Heights."
Oh, and, not to be a princess, BUT if a boyfriend ever gave me porn for my birthday present, I'd break up with him. -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: Short_Circuiting | | 5 | | i like the nightside series. it's crazy delightful disturbing stuff with lots of dark humor. i also like the akira graphic novels and anything by hajime ueda. xD -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: GTLB | | 5 | And of course Susie is reading the porn.. lol!
As far as books go I of course like to read a lot of comic books and graphic novels. On top of that I am a sucker for the good old musician biography. -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | | User: usedbooks | | 5 | Nothing says "I love you" like porn. XD -- Seriously, a terrible gift for *most* women. There are so few porn/smut things intended for a female audience... I have a friend who does enjoy Playgirl, though.
I read old school murder mysteries. I am right near the end of The Hound of the Baskervilles at the moment. -Posted on Apr 04, 2008 | Only registered members may vote. Sign up here! | |
