So I teach elementary school ESL in Korea, and I have gotten that quite a few times. We always have a nice laugh about it in the office.
Lieflik; baie dankie. Ek sal kyk of ek iemand in SA kan vra om dit namens my te koop en te pos.
Nee, hy is een van die digters wat in die dertiger-jare bekend geword het, saam met ander soos N.P. van Wyk Louw en Elizabeth Eybers. Hulle word die Dertigers genoem in literêre sirkels.
Ek sal enige boek deur Uys Krige aanvaar, in harde kopie of digitaal. Ek wil net weer van sy skryfwerk lees.
Op soek na 'n Dertiger digter.
Hallo. Ek is op soek na boeke (bundels of romans) deur Uys Krige. Die enigste probleem is dat ek nie in SA is nie, so Takealot of Exclusive Books sal min help (en ek het al daar gesoek, met geen hulpvaardige resultate nie). As enige iemand my in die regte rigting kan wys, sal ek baie dankbaar wees.
Nice. I'm happy for you if you like it. I haven't used that specific model of theirs, but I'm sure it's fun.
How do we feel about FPR?
I am currently in the process of learning to love my FPR Himalaya V2. I was disappointed in it when I first got it, but I recently pulled it back out, and it is winning me over slowly but surely. I have been researching a bit about ebonite and how it is made, and it has given me a new appreciation for this pen. It is completely unique, and I absolutely love that. I have always preferred loving craftsmanship over clever engineering, so a pen like this would make sense for me. What do you guys think?
NPD - Magna Carta Denima
So I just got this new pen today. The ordering and shipping process was highly unpleasant, but the product itself is pretty damn good. If you can't tell, this pen is made of denim, which I think is pretty cool. It writes smoothly, and it's big and hefty. If you can get one from a reseller, rather than the official website, I can recommend it.
Hi. I'm probably a bad candidate for this, but I would love to be involved in some way. I'm in Korea, so it's a completely different timezone. But still. Hit me up. Let me disappoint you.
And here I am, just about ready to publish my new EP. Any alternatives to Bandcamp out there?
I worked at an ice cream parlour in my hometown for a summer job. After three shifts I knew it was horrible and it wouldn't get any better. Two hours before the start of my fourth shift, I walked up to the boss and said, "I don't work here anymore. You're a cunt."
Yeah, I read about that on the internet. Honestly, it doesn't bother me. If the book is not about people I know about, my brain doesn't care how factual it is.
Just started Papillon by Henri Charrière, the 1973 translation. It's great so far, although I'm only about 50 pages in.
Be honest. Did you write the Shavian just hoping someone would remark on it? Like I just did?
You are half correct. The movie is essentially a parody of the book. The book is unironic.
The irony here is that Starship Troopers is pretty damn fashy, and a lot of the manosphere leans in that direction as well. So it does ring true, in an odd way.
