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.

Whilst I totally see where you’re coming from this does make me laugh.

I will like a thing, therefore I won’t get involved. Happiness will be brought to me – not interested.

I know that I like the few Fall songs that I’ve heard.

I also know that if I really get into them, I’ll end up spending way too much money on their back catalogue, to the exclusion of other artists.

I’m not curtailing my enjoyment of music, just curtailing its concentration towards one artist.

Weird punctuation in books, just makes it a struggle to get into it in any way. Tried to start Bonfire of the Vanities a couple of times…but it’s written with a lot of ellipses…makes me wonder if the author forgot about commas…can get right to fuck…
