the book return
 

please insert books spine-first into the slot so as not to damage the pages!


since the corral is empty i am setting up a chat thread here~

-inserts self spine first as instructed-

OxO wow, you are awfully flexible to make it through the slot like that. you deserve something nice!

I also think I'm stuck folded up like this for a bit
Oh well

eh, you can advertise yourself as an origami roomate? ideal for small flats!

I mean, I can turn into a face so that may be overkill

And you can travel to all kinds of cool destination just by mailing yourself in a small parcel. Much cheaper than a plane ticket.

*doesn't return book, because I am a disastrous thief of literature*
>w> Sorry.
I'm keeping this for at least 9 more days.

Book? What book are you talking about?
Shh! I don't have any books...
*hides book under mattress*

been a while since I've read anything rip

me, the guy that pretty much prefers everything in an online format because i'm a dick like that: what the fuck is a book

Having a physical book is nice when staring at a screen hurts

books are nice to hold, and sometimes, there's stuff in books that can't be found online, which is kind of frustrating at times, but kinda not most of the time.

>w> I haven't returned a book without paying a fee since grammar school, hehehe, and even then, I still have borrowed books from 1st and 3rd grade. x3

I can't read books online the same way, but I have read online before. :T But I guess I like turning the pages and lookin' like a flippin' nerd in public. x'D

I think the last time I went to a non-school library I was in elementary school

I've been wanting some type of e-ink reader since I imagine it's easier on the eyes. But feel like I don't have enough time to commit to reading anyway.

>u>; I feel like I'm not allowed in libraries anymore. Like I'm a wanted criminal, that was banned from all libraries. <w<;

Actually, though I can visit libraries outside of school, I uh, feel out of place in them tbh... >.>; Dunno what it is. Maybe it's kids, maybe it's the poor underfunded computer stations, maybe it's the layout of it, but I feel more at peace in university libraries. <:]

Hey bio your avi makes me think of Cher

I want to visit my local library and read to kids as Belle .u.

Awh! <x3
That sounds cute!
:[ I question however, whether kids today know who in the heck Belle is.

Not sure if that's a good thing since I'm personally not a fan of Cher.

how about you're looking very Bob Mackie

o_o; Isn't Cher like, 190 years old?

I like Cher :c

Also they do. =w= Thankfully LOL

*Sees people at the book return and silently judges them for returning 18 books at a time when I'm emptying bins.*

Bins? Get on my level :L

We had bins. That nice little convener belt ferrying those spine-first returned books? Straight into the effing bin. Big bins; bend at the waist. I loathed them.

Do it do it do it do it! :p-cute:

as someone who routinely would return no less than ten books at a time every single week i feel NO shame or empathy for the bin sorter XD you must suffer for my pleasure! i'll read all of the full-colour semi-glossed field guides i can get my grubby paws on!

*dilly dallies about to beach music in front of the book return, not returning any books at all*
>3> ~Let's go surfin' now, everybody's learnin' how, come on and safari with meee~

*slowly pushes an arm through and tries to feel out any book-like objects* mrrrrrrr.....

Hey! Watch where you're shoving that!

Oooof. I have not been to a library at all in literally 14 years.

*slowly retracts limb* ....mrrrrrr......


oh golly, nearly half of my whole life since your last visit? you make me feel heckin sad with that admission

Let's see, last time I went to a non-school library, I was in fifth grade
So that would've been the 2005-2006 school year
It's been a while for me too

It's been about a year since I last went to the library...

The library is about a half hour's drive from here, and is out if the way from where we shop for groceries
