• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Communism?

    Everyone still seems to be conflating power corruption with a lack of altruism among ordinary people. These are two separate arguments.

    Communism?

    Too bad Orwell was a self-described socialist who kept Trotskyist pamphlets in his drawer. :(

    Re: Beauty is a good letter of introduction I'm a bit bemused that no one has commented on these. I think they're very good.

    I think I've read that, but remember literally nothing about it.

    Police Brutality

    I'm told that some people took this seriously and were a little bit horrified by it. Never take anything I say seriously. If it wasn't already clear: I am absolutely against police brutality. I think it should only happen between two consenting adults.

    Police Brutality

    Is there really much to debate about this? Personally, I'm in favour of police brutality, and I expect most of TCoD is with me.

    I'm going shopping for... that sort of thing, yes. I was also thinking of buying a few books from the reading list, in case they're in really high demand at the university library. Do you think that's a good idea? I don't think I'll know anyone when I get there, but the same thing...

    A*AAB: Maths, Politics, Econ, Further Maths. Moving in September 18th, I think. And I'm afraid they took down the sociology-ish episode of Fry's English Delight.

    Got into St Andrews! By the way, you ought to listen to Fry's English Delight. It's like Stephen Fry + Sociology.

    What are you reading?

    Wordsworth Classics use translations that are out of copyright, I believe. Their translation of Dante is from 1805. Their translation of Homer appears to be by George Chapman, who died in 1634. It has the distinction of being the translation which Keats wrote a poem about, but as you might...

    Which Fossil Pokemon?

    Yeah, Freeziepop (link). I still talk to her occasionally. Not sure if she still loves Cradily. Edit: On topic... I like Omastar the best.

    Are you sure a five-euro one-volume edition is going to be a respectable translation? I have my doubts.

    The funny thing is that we are as silly now as we were then. Especially Xikaze.

    What do you think of fellow forumgoers?

    I feel terrible forgetting to mention you in my original post, Watershed. I forgot about Furret as well. Sorry, you two! I wasn't thinking. Well, Watershed, you are intelligent, you write poetry of a high quality, you can be a little harsh here on the forums, like me, but you're actually...

    I find it a bit sad that it's gone. It was nice to have a record. Of course, I'm assuming that "archived" is a euphemism.
