Nobody goes to the library anymore - 01-27-04

And no wonder...there's so few public spaces available in cities anymore. It costs £50 to join the only decent library in my city(the linenhall). It isn't a public library, they are an affront really! It seems that if you don't want to drink alcohol or coffee during the day, there's just nowhere to congregate. TheLinenhall is a haven for people who just want to hang out and do something productive, like talk and educate themselves. Libraries are cool. I can really relax at the library. I'm a geek. lol but that's better than being boring so i shouldn't complain.

It isn't geeky to like a little peace and a relaxing atmosphere to read in. If you were reading Star Trek, that would be different.

I go to the library lots. Not to hang out though, just to grab books and go. I'd buy books, but I'd rather read them for free.

How about parks and beaches?


have you seen my marbles?

I must say, I love going to the library, wheter it is to study, or just read and be away from my family....

Also, for the types of girls that I date, it's easier to find them in a library. Whether it is the public library or the school library.. it's all good

*small note: I don't like to pick up women at bars and clubs, they are just too wild for me.

Yeah, i'd only buy a book if i really liked it (or the cover).

You'd be lucky to find a clean beach or park here!

So you think girls who go to the library are quiet and meek?

Libraries never have the books I want to read.
So I don't go to them.

Plus they're usually empty of people..so it's kind of spooky..all quiet and empty and..evil...like a slasher movie or something.

Get a book and read it for free? I love libraries. I have 3-5 books checked out at all times, for 2-4 weeks.
