BookishFeminist MAKE AMERICA READ AGAIN 8y
Elisa 😄😄 8y
Zelma Or if their only books are Ayn Rand. Or Bret Easton Ellis. 😬 8y
shawnmooney Or Dan Brown 8y
BookishFeminist @Zelma LOL AYN RAND 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 8y
Sue All of the yes!! 8y
Lauren_reading But what if they buy you books first? 😍🤔 8y
BookishFeminist @LaurenReads it's a trap 8y
Shortstack @LaurenReads that's how my boyfriend won me over. We started out long distance and once a month or so I'd get surprise book packages of his favorite books for me to read. 8y
Yamich49 🙌🏽🙌🏽❤️❤️👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 8y
Shortstack @Skiles men who don't read buy books for girls? That's just weird to me. 😬 8y
Yamich49 @Skiles @Zelma @shawnmooney 🙌🏽🙌🏽 YES LMAO 8y
BookishFeminist @Shortstack YES I had a boyfriend buy me books but never read 🙅🏻🙅🏻🙅🏻 8y
Shortstack @Skiles well a gift card is no fun! Who wants a gift from someone that isn't picked without thought and love? If they can't pick a book I'll love to get me then HELL NO!! 8y
Shortstack @BookishFeminist how did he figure out what books to buy you? I guess Chaz is the only guy to really buy me books and they were all books he read that he thought I'd like. 8y
Shortstack @Skiles Man! Life is scary! Although I'd love to have a $300 gift card to my favorite gift card. 8y
BookishFeminist @Shortstack I didn't say he was any good at picking the books out 😜 he did ask a friend once though and that went better 8y
Shortstack @Skiles I've had my share of 💩 in my time! One of my exes didn't know basic Greek or Roman mythology. How do you not know who Zeus is?!?? I mean he was 💩 for so many more reasons but yeah. Lol 8y
Yournewfriendsams @Skiles I am loving watching this unfold. I once dated a dude may have been illiterate 😖 damn dudes in bands. You're right, CONSTANT VIGILANCE. 8y
Shortstack @BookishFeminist Well at least you got better books then?! 😂😂😂 I hope you find a magical reader man! 8y
Yournewfriendsams @Skiles also, back to the Tolkien warning. Run! Run! 8y
Megabooks When I was on Match, if a guy couldn't come up with the last book he read, forget him! And that was hard because I was in a small ass hick town in rural Kentucky. Only one guy fit the bill. 😕 8y
BookishFeminist @Shortstack I have a magical reader man who not only buys me books I hadn't even heard of but also rebinds and makes them for me! Also he reads so that helps @becausetrains 8y
Yournewfriendsams @BookishFeminist don't let him go! 8y
Yournewfriendsams @Ebooksandcooks I always joke that every single dating profile says they like reading and the outdoors. Lies! LIES!! 8y
Shortstack @BookishFeminist Goooooooooooooooood!! You deserve it!! 8y
Shortstack @Yournewfriendsams I went on a date with a guy I met on online dating when my profile name was something like ReaderGirl and when I met up with him he told me he didn't believe in reading. What does that even mean? Needless to say our date did not end well! 8y
BookishFeminist @Yournewfriendsams @Shortstack Don't worry he's not going anywhere! If I haven't scared him off yet with my choices in creepy reading and tv material then I doubt I will 💀🔪👀 8y
BookishFeminist @Shortstack @Yournewfriendsams Wait. I. Did. ...did you just say DOESN'T BELIEVE IN READING??!!! 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱 that's disgusting 8y
Shortstack @BookishFeminist good! It's crazy when you find one that fits, doesn't it? 8y
Shortstack @BookishFeminist @Yournewfriendsams Pretty much. He went on and on and on about it. Why even ask someone out who's entire profile is a list of books she likes if you don't believe in reading?! 8y
Yournewfriendsams @Shortstack what?!? Don't believe in reading?!? Wtf does that even mean?!? 8y
BookishFeminist @Shortstack I mean, probably a guy that imagines he has something to prove and by prove I mean be a mansplaining jackass about 8y
Yournewfriendsams @Skiles @BookishFeminist @Shortstack @Ebooksandcooks I love that we can call commiserate over horrific dates where guys can't read/don't read/are unaware what a good books is 😫😂😖 8y
Yournewfriendsams ^and apparently I can't spell/type either. #friday🍻 8y
Yournewfriendsams @Skiles they seriously have every other dating site combo. Have you seen that shit for Disney lovers?! What has this world come to?!? 8y
Shortstack @Yournewfriendsams I have no idea!! I stopped listening pretty closely. He did take me to a famous restaurant that a ton of famous writers used to frequent called Musso and Frank's before telling me this. So I guess that was cool? The bartender told us a story about Hemingway and Yogi Berra that made the night as a whole worthwhile! 8y
Shortstack @Skiles @Yournewfriendsams @BookishFeminist @Ebooksandcooks a dating site for readers?! That's a great idea! Or just not agree to go on a date with a guy until he shows you his Litsy or Goodreads. 😂 8y
BookishFeminist @Shortstack That's a fuck of a silver lining to take away from a date with a guy who doesn't believe in reading- good job! 💯💯 8y
BookishFeminist @Shortstack @Skiles @Yournewfriendsams @Ebooksandcooks YEP 😂😂 you learn a lot about someone from what people read and rate- my favorite is to look and see whether he has a politics shelf and what contents might be in it 👀 8y
Shortstack @Skiles hells yeah I am!! North Hollywood to be exact. 8y
Yournewfriendsams @Shortstack @Skiles fuck yeah! IRL friends in the making! 8y
Megabooks @Shortstack @BookishFeminist @Yournewfriendsams @Skiles Seriously! We need some positive confirmation of reading! Doesn't believe in it? Wtf does that even mean. Is reading Santa?! I'd totally go for a dating site that scans your reads and TBR and matches you. Litsy for Lovers perhaps? 8y
Shortstack @Skiles crazysauce! I've been thinking of putting together a mini Litsy meetup to The Last Bookstore or Book Soup sometime. You know for locals. 8y
Shortstack @Ebooksandcooks if I was single I'd be all about helping create, test, promote that app in any way I could! 😂 8y
Shortstack @Skiles that's so disappointing! I've never been to Book Soup. I go to The Last Bookstore whenever I can since it's just a red line ride away. Also Grand Central Market!! Do you know other locals? 8y
Megabooks Ok @Litsy ? You listening? We need a dating site!!! I'd pay! Eharmony with books lol! @Skiles @Shortstack 8y
Megabooks #litsyafterdark for sure @BookishFeminist 😉 8y
Shortstack @Skiles I love the importance of parking in LA! 😂 I avoid driving outside of work and groceries. I walk and take the Red Line wherever I can. 8y
BookishFeminist @Ebooksandcooks DEFINITELY #LitsyAfterDark 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💅🏼💅🏼 8y
Megabooks @Shortstack @Skiles "Everywhere you go has valet." #clueless ? 8y
becausetrains @BookishFeminist @Ebooksandcooks #sexylitsy (thanks to @Skiles) 8y
Smrloomis I know nothing about anything discussed on this thread and still enjoyed reading it immensely 😂👏🏽 Thanks my fellow Littens! 8y
itsbrb ^^* @Smrloomis completely agree. That was fantastic. 8y
mauveandrosysky YES! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 8y
GinaAnderson @Skiles Truer words were never written. My college boyfriend. Named his dog Strider because Lord of the Rings was the only book he'd ever read. Turns out, he was a dumbass. 8y
tnorris Agreed! 🙌🏼🙌🏼 8y
[DELETED] 3558467437 😂😂 8y
MCYmermaid Absolutely!! 8y
MrBook 😂😂😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻 Words to live by! That's one reason why @BookBabe and I are so profoundly close 😁! 8y
MrBook @GinaAnderson Ah maaaan. So few intelligent people in this world 😕. What @Skiles said 😊. 8y
