Cheese.
Cheddar, bûcheron, feta, camembert, gouda, roquefort…
It's been too long

New Poll - Transmigrated Into Book World

I'll probably remember the gist of the work, some important details, and only a few names here and there. That's just how my memory works. Considering all the stuff I've read (both fiction and nonfiction), how much I remember surprises me… as does my inability to rememb...

New Poll - First Comic
(18 posts, 1000 views) Posted: 3 months ago by blackluna in News
I'm honestly not sure what is meant by "comic": do you mean anything drawn in panels telling a story, or does it need to be at least an entire page long?
If you include newspaper comics or comic strips (what some people call the "funnies" or the "funny pages" ) then the a...

Le petit prince isn't a comic — it's a children's book with illustrations. You say "Euro" (as in European, right?), but all three titles you mentioned are French (linguistically; in other words, Franco-phone).

Ethnic foods strike again! Because I was just in Little Odesa this morning and visited a Georgian bakery there:
Megrelian khach'ap'uri with t'arkhuna!
(Khach'ap'uri is a cheese-filled bread, while t'arkhuna is tarragon-flavoured Georgian lemonade. )...

Why do both these polls equate being dense and being stupid? They're not even similar!

New Poll - Ice Cream

Honestly, I like almost all those flavours. And I have a hard time picking just one favourite (not just with ice cream, I'm always annoying this way).

I've been reading mostly webtoons lately, and my library's selection of manga is poor, so it has basically all been electronic.

New Poll - Religion (Raised)
(34 posts, 1733 views) Posted: 5 months ago by blackluna in News
Could someone other than zarlan moderate this?! I'd like a third party — someone impartial.
As it is, I'm starting to wonder if I really did somehow insult them without realizing it. And if my posts could be considered trolling.

Next time, re-read the entire exchange AGAIN before replying. (Try the threaded view of the conversation, it'll help.)

That may have something to do with the number of Muslim-raised users on this website. Same goes for people raised with "no religion."

I beg to differ: most Christians do actually read the Bible (not merely memorize portions of it). The same might well be true of the Quran and Muslims (but my knowledge of Islam is far too limited; I wouldn't be surprised either way). In fact, most for denominations of Chri...

Agnostic means you believe there's a higher power, but don't ascribe to any known religion and don't do anything spiritual.

"Christian - Catholic" is what I answered, since I am a practicing Catholic, a traditionalist at that. Thing is, upbringing-wise it's a bit different.

I have no idea how to answer this poll, because my reading patterns definitely aren't of the "slow and steady" type. I only regularly follow 20-ish at any given time. I periodically binge which ever of the other things on my reading list I'm in the mood for, aiming for wh...

Yesterday, it was huà méi followed by gulab jamun (going to ethnic grocers will do that to you). Now I'm craving garlic bread. None of which I'll get to eat anytime soon.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild…
That said, I've been wanting to play games I miss to which I don't presently have access (Age of Empires II, Metroid Zero Mission, and AmsterDoom). C'est la vie.

My thumbs are black, so to speak. I used to think that I'd one day have a fragrant garden of herbs and edible flowers, but I can't even grow weeds without killing them. It's basically the same for indoor houseplants. I've managed to keep poinsettias and Easter lilies aliv...

New Poll - Hero vs Villain

Isn't choosing one a kind of conceit? —At the very least, it'd be unhealthy (mentally speaking), no?
A person without some kind of overly-high self-esteem or egomania is probably a "mob character," so to speak.
(Not to insult anyone who is choosing an option for the hell ...
