Don't get me wrong, I'm not in favour of PDA at all. But your stance is maybe a little extreme. I have seen many people kiss in public, or even a hand placed on some chest, during my childhood. That...

I would describe my accent as ever changing, because it really is. When I am talking to native speakers (from Irish to Southern English) I tend to kind of take on their accent. But only slightly. I...
Gosh, I don't know. I am dating, but terribly confused. Why do people even bother..
At Sinterklaas (a Dutch holiday somewhat like Christmas in the form that children get presents) last week I got a box set of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, so I will finally be reading those....
I don't think the publishing industry is dead at all. It might have taken a set-back in recent years due to the availability of free ebooks but it will most likely survive. We have seen the same...
I am currently a bachelor student in Economics, the Dutch government thankfully subsidizes the tuition fees and gives every Dutch student a monthly grant. Therefore working is not a necessity to live...
Hahaha, opinions differ on that subject. I can tell you that. The NS (the national railway company) is criticized a lot over here. But I'm glad someone has something good to say about them, finally...
I've got nobody on my ignore list. No worries mutatis, I'm one of the people that enjoys your posts too much to ignore them.
I completely agree, if you decide to do something interdisciplinary it should be interdisciplinary. I do think this is quite difficult to achieve though since you don't want to get into that other...
Ah I get it, thank you for the clarification. I agree, literature nowadays is undervalued by most whereas theatre and film are still popular. It would be good to incorporate the influence of...
I think I would agree most with LIB's definition of a god. Although the real definition of god is I think non-existent. Religion and god(s) are very personal things, and there are probably as many...
Well, as far as maths go I have a very clear opinion on that. In secondary school I was horrible at maths and I plainly hated the subject in itself. I did however choose to study economics and...
I am not sure what it is you're trying to say here. What would you like to change in academia. I get that you'd like it to be more interdisciplinary but in what way does your example of novels,...
I have read one play of Moliere in French and I read another one in Dutch. I had French in secondary school which is why I read one play in French, and that is also the only good thing that specific...
Thankfully, parking is not a problem I have to deal with in my city. My city was built around thirty years ago and therefore we have a very modern infrastructure. Enough parking space everywhere,...
Well, this film has been sitting on my hard drive since it came out and I still haven't taken the time to watch it. Maybe I should take this as a reminder and just watch it this weekend or something....
This does not relate to previous posts but to the general topic. I was just studying and decided to put on some classical music. First off, I had forgotten why I loved listening to classical music so...
Hahaha. Well, not the manner of walking (though I'm sure there's a creepy manner in which people can walk as well). It's more that saying you like walking around at night when everyone else is asleep...
I love walking around the streets at night (not in a creepy way). Just being the only one there, the complete silence and quietness gives such an awesome atmosphere.
As someone already pointed out this question has been asked before, but I just have a quick question about your first book. Why is it the third book in the HP series and not the first?
Well, probably most of these new users will not stick around (realistically). But there might be a few that will stick around, and those that decide to stay around will most likely contribute to the...
Well in that case. Modern-day media are very much responsible for our heroes nowadays. That makes sense because a lot of things (I dare say, most) we know these days are due to media. Whether it's...
Are we talking about the heroes depicted in films and books or at real-life heroes that were made to be these heroes by modern-day media?
Hahaha, welcome to the forum. Next time, read the actual post. This was from 2008 and Fifty Shades was only released last year.
It might have been socially acceptable in certain age groups, demographics and/or countries. I am talking about approximately ten years ago among tween/teen boys in Holland. I don't know how big your...
