Back in the 20th century there was an institution known as the "library." I believe you could somehow barter with the feudal rulers of these domains in order to take home, for a time, one or more of the tomes within.

I will not read books off of the computer screen. Firstly, I get a bit worn if sitting for more than ten hours straight in front of the can, and also I'm immobilized. My book can accompany me out to the house in the country, or under the aardvalk, down by the sea.
Thoidly, the font and appearance are mostly ugly compared to a nice book (LOTR Illustrated, mmm).

Oy. It's really hard to not mention you-know-what when you-know-who keeps being obvious about this stuff.

even when Harry Potter was at the height of his popularity, i kept getting him confused with Colonel Sherman Potter on M*A*S*H.. cuz he was played by Harry Morgan, so whenever i hear 'Harry' and 'Potter' together, i always just say 'horse hockey!' and walk away. My friend Jen said that if she met Harry Potter and he was real she would molest him. I can't stand him myself, we don't talk much about it anymore, for obvious reasons, and I was never interested in the books. One time when I had my own apartment, i put the monitor sideways on the bed and downloaded eBooks of 'Federation' and 'Final Frontier'.. it was satisfying.

Around the time when the movie came out, I went to the Chapter's book store, and placed an order for Rememberance Day by Henry Porter. First, I asked if they had any Henry Porter books in stock, and the young fancy lad with blonde a tipped hair head like all the punks today who think they're all cool and shit pointed to like The Prisoner of Azkobob or whatever the hell that book's called, so I threw him in a dumpster behind the store, but not before I spilled hot Starbucks yuppie juice on his pasty ass forehead, and slammed the door on his face.
Harry Potter sucks. And if I ever see some little nerd ass kid shit stain dressed up like that little homo again, I'm going stick that broom up his ass and give him a scar on the inside of his damn forehead.

You read books? So you didn't perhaps take the wallet from his limp body, buy a bottle of peppermint schnapps for the doe, get shitfaced on the sidewalk outside his store and piss on it? And when you woke up, someone had stolen your pair of 1957 "stars'n'stripes" C.E. suspenders?
