Haha thank you! I too would run out of fucks if I was trying to read Proust.

Definitely although the book is more like the size of a collected works of Poe.

Well he has many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore upon which to ponder.

Library is not alphabetized and so Skeleton doesn't seem very pretentious at all. Just seems like it knows the best way to spend it's time.
mtomsky OP t1_iyee20z wrote
You're not wrong and I am probably judgemental of people who read Proust.

Found the pretentious Redditor
( Jk )

If was pretentious I would know the difference between 'it's' and 'its'. Wait a second...
(I may actually be the pretentious redditor, but I'm too high on drugs to know for sure, either way my opinion is probably garbage and to be disregarded.)
Edit to laugh at my own horrible grammar.

Why's that? Genuinely curious, not a trap or anything. I've never read Proust

Mildly pretentious skeleton that doesn't organize their books very well.

One day I hope to become this skeleton ππ€
mtomsky OP t1_iyelq5p wrote
In all honesty I'm not but it's one of those books that people wheel out to impress people. Famous one for people starting it and not finishing, very long and philosophical.

I designed and made this from scratch

Thank you, I design everything I make myself.

Awesome
Jo_Doc2505 t1_iyezj3p wrote
It's awesome! Encapsulates my love of reading and all things gothic. The only thing similar that I've made is a miniature bookshop (whisper, from a kit)
mtomsky OP t1_iyezwr2 wrote
Thank you!
Jo_Doc2505 t1_iyf0ew5 wrote
In fact...could I maybe print your picture and see if I could somehow include in my shop? I'll PM you some pics of my project and you must totally say no if you don't like the idea

I was thinking about a skeleton reading in my shop

I wrote this bf I realised you had a fully fledged business thing going on so I apologise for asking for a 'wee printout'! π³
mtomsky OP t1_iyf4biq wrote
Haha thank you!
mtomsky OP t1_iyf4mbx wrote
Honestly your bookshop is super cool, if it's literally just a tiny print to hang in your bookshop I'm happy for you to do that!
Jo_Doc2505 t1_iyf59mu wrote
Fab! I'll play around with it and send you anything bf I use it. You're a superstar! Come back to me if you every need 87 tiny books in a rush!π π π π

I'll definitely keep you in mind if I do!

Both the smoke and the drink wouldn't reach his lungs or stomach (assuming he also has a mouth). Just sayin'.
