This is not bashing, nor intentionally humorous. It is, in fact, a series of very shrewd psychological insights comparing real life with literature. Quite eye-opening, for both sides.
To go in the dark with a light is to know the light.
To know the dark, go dark. Go without sight,
and find that the dark, too, blooms and sings,
and is traveled by dark feet and dark wings.
~Wendell Berry

hrmnn! there were quite a few interesting topics on that thanks for the link! i like how the author always related it in the end to a romance novel, showing that what we think is the "best" way to behave is rarely the way we actually go about doing things. i especially like the entry about how when a woman wants people close to her she acts like a bitch :P i have had that happen to me a few times!

A) They don't know you're gay.

B) Admiring you from afar.

Pick one.

So I make a A&A thread but do I put it here?  No.  Of course not.
