       Today I have learned that an independent bookshop in town is into cruel and unusual forms of punishment.Memo to self, never shoplift from Chapters.

       @tekIt turns out there are fates worse than death. And at least six of them involve reading works written by a randy auld bollix as he experiments with the English language.

       @swamptin Ulysses is the only book I’ve ever grudge-read. Damned if I was going to let that thing defeat me, even if I hated every minute of it.

       @tekThat's a level of commitment! Fair play. I never actually finished either Ulysses or Finnegans Wake. I started both. Both were exercises in self torture. Figured I'd read something a little less taxing so picked up Zen and the art of Motorcycle Maintenance instead. 😂

       @swamptin True story: when we were moving into our last house, our new next door neighbor introduced himself and his cat. I had just finished reading “Zen”.“This is Fay!”“As in Phaedrus?”eyes wide: “YES! How did you… What?”We got along great.

       @tekOh that's really funny. 😂 I bet those neighbourhood BBQ evenings went on for hours and hours.Actually that's another book that has so far beaten me, Lila. The follow up about morals while travelling canals. It's quite heavy with the philosophy. Our maybe it's just less accessible to be because I don't care much for boats?
