rtcvb32: Heh, let's see what my Ruby book says...

=begin Someone needs to fix the broken code below!

Well that was illuminating...
Someone should write a book called: "Reading between the lines: the hidden wisdom of programming books"

Who knows, it might turn some programming books into bestsellers!
"I was hallucinating almost, and I was choking, and I needed air"

I'm into BDSM apparently...

From: Journey to the center of the Earth

Should've gone with page 69. It reads "A most curious volcano indeed, whose crater is rarely vistided" ( ͡° ل͜ ͡°)

This is a loose translation from Croatian/Bosnian language from first expanded sentence (and little bit more) on the page 28 in the book "Humans and Apes" (or Monkeys) written by Fadil Hadzic.

After a month absent minded science professor had proposed to the colleagues in the teacher's lounge that they should again organize book club evening with famous authors, but the headmaster has replied:
- Not even Tolstoy shall pass doorstep of this institution!
- But he is dead! - whispered warily the professor.
- I know that my dear colleague, but some people think already that they are next Tolstoys and it is better not to let them in. It seems to me that great names of literature are bigger seen from the distance - concluded headmaster.

xD
Seems to me that I'll have to join book club or to become famous author to have sex life.

"Ein paarmal schlief ich ein, wachte wieder auf und blinzelte in den halbdunklen Raum, aber sie kam nicht." (Clemens Meyer, Die stillen Trabanten)

Translation: "Several times I fell asleep, woke up again and blinked into the semi-darkness, but she didn't come."

I didn't expect anything good when I saw the author, but this one is really depressing. ;)
"The next day, Denny came home from Dayton, Florida, unhappy."

Well, that is certainly something.

Kindness and intelligence are the preoccupations of age. Being cruel and thoughtless is far more fascinating when you're twenty. - Dandelion Wine by Ray Bradbury

So I should be a bad boy this year?
"But they all laughed at that—an appeal went to a committee for study."

CymTyr: My sex life will be non existent. I am asexual and do no chase women (Or men for that matter). I do not need a sexual relationship and have no desire for one.

Yes, asexuality is a thing now. If there are virgins reading this, it's absolutely NOT a big deal and don't worry about having it. You get the same thing by masturbating, there's no need to involve another person you might not even like or be attracted very much to.
Any book that says that deserves to be burned :P
