I have toyed with the idea of STftMB, starting a thread on the music board asking what people’s favourite flavour of crisps is or something.

I always end up thinking better of it.

They’d only reply with a very specific ranking then a lengthy explanation of why the ready salted crisps you could get in 2003 are obviously better than the ones you get today.

And without a Simpsons meme, so everyone’s a winner.

i think you’ve found possibly the only thread that hasn’t been made yet

you should do it, seems to be a few people who only post on the music board, they should be brought into the fold

No. I rate this idea Paramore/10.

Films or shows set in the past (by which I mean, pre-me so before 1984)
Films or shows within the fantasy genre. Basically if it couldn’t happen in real life I automatically reject it.

These issues limit my choices somewhat.

I haven’t seen any ‘ScandiNoir’ dramas and I am not going to start now.

‘Coming soon to E4, CÜNTUCH - A 24 part subtitled police procedural set in some very cold country all about murdered young women’

Steady on.

I’ll be honest that while I enjoyed both of these responses I don’t think I fully understood either, much less so Mute Branches.

For me I guess it’s depressing books, maybe? I did actually read The Fact of a Body which had that sort of description given all over Twitter and it was a tough and depressing read but enjoyable…

But yeah in general I’m thinking of books like ‘A Little Life’ (I think?) that everyone from here who I follow on Twitter goes on about being amazing but heartbreaking. Fuck that. I read books for enjoyment not to feel down.

Ditto for films, I guess. I don’t mind drama etc but I really don’t want to watch something where the soul purpose seems to be to wallow in dreadfulness. Who wants to do that? I like to be happy m9s x

Surely it should be ‘Things that you keep at arm’s length’. If it keeps YOU at arm’s length, that means it doesn’t like you and wants to keep you away. :zipper_mouth_face: @anon5266188 @plasticniki

Well now bigfoot, remember when I made you a Leader? This is exactly the time where you can shine and grammar correct the thread’s title. :smiley:

No he can’t.

Non-fiction books. I use my brain enough at work. I read to escape and be told a story. I don’t want to read in detail the details of the WWII Desert Campaign, my Mills & Boon is perfect thanks.
