You misspelled Putin

How does it work when the diplomat / head of state has been sentenced by an international court for war crimes or crimes against humanity?

Anyone… Or anything!

The tires look in good condition too!

You can’t run people over because they crossed outside a crosswalk.

Unless they are black and poor and you drive a big truck in a southern city at night. Then, it’s just another unfortunate accident.

Never take the ambulance. They will suck your money and your soul.

OK, thanks! As a quasi alien to the Star Trek universe, I humbly accept your explanation!

OK, now I get it! Good old capitalism strikes again

I’m out of the loop on this one but I will seize the opportunity to say all the bad things I think about that book.

First, the writing is overly complicated with no other apparent objective than to confuse the reader with extremely long and circumvented sentences.

Second, the story is constantly chopped with long and boring chapters that are solely informative on various aspects of sperm whale anatomy, ecology, behavior (riddled with dated errors andmisinterpretations), as well as whaling specifics, ranging from the work of the carpenter to the process of removing the head of whales.

The first duty of a story is to entertain, its second is to instruct. Good writers manage to do both seamlessly. Melville makes a total messout of it, breaking the fourth wall when explaining how hard it is to collect accurate information, citing his sources in the body of the texte, and completely losing the interest of the reader in the process.

There.

I’m trying to finish it for the sake of it. It is painful.

Yeah, thanks. I’m trying.

WHAOUDUDE!

Netflix happened before Reddit. Also, one could add Facebook and Amazon

It has more to do with the direction the world ils heading. I’m trying to get rid of the dread, not successfully

Thank you for sharing! Have a great weekend!
