When you've spent almost the entire break conversing in the comment section but then a couple of pages show up early and you don't want to read them because it's probably an accident and maybe it's embarrassing to Minna but all the people you've been talking to have moved on to new pages so you suddenly find yourself with no one to talk to and you panic and find yourself in the forum and post random nonsense just to get through the next couple days.

Whew.
And when it almost literally hurt that you missed the event (even though you know it's better that you didn't have that temptation, but oh gods, why!)

I just found 3 bookmarks for SSSS buried amongst everything else marked over the last year+ in my Bookmarks tab. That makes 4 links for the comic (1 as a quick link on my browser), 1 for the forum, and 1 for aRTD. The only other thing I have that many links for is my Etsy business.

I'm an addict, and I don't want to change.

I was on a concert in Nidarosdomen a few days back - you know, the greatest (only?) cathedral of Scandinavia, the Heart of Norway, the goal of many pilgrimages - and I sat there thinking HM I WONDER IF THIS IS A TROLL NEST IN THE SSSS-VERSE
you'll know where to find me.

When you're in this thread reading every single post and nodding when you should be instead doing your homework. In fact, it's open in another tab, but this one is so much more relatable and interesting.

[Also what Curry said]

You know you're addicted when you find that your new phrase for anytime somebody doesn't speak clearly is "he speaks like he has a potato in his mouth". Also, when I don't feel like I've communicated well, I swear, "Potato!"
Also, "Messy Swede" is now an official term.

When you see a neighbor walking a pug dog with an extremely smushed-in face, and you immediately think "CEILING-PUG!!"  (Happened this afternoon.)

I love it!!! I would snag that book off the shelf so fast to see what it was about, and then probably buy it. :D I'm a total "judge a book by it's cover" kind of person, so great job.

I also like it very much! :)
The only thing that disturbs me a little is that the text is first placed in the middle/centered (?) and the part about the author is left-aligned. But I guess you did that on purpose?

Thanks guys! :D It was kind of a slapdash effort so I wasn't sure if it looked good.

Heh, why do you say that?

Yeah, I thought it looked better left-aligned because I wanted Minna's name in bold caps like that. I actually added a little picture of Minna next to the bio this morning, which offset the margin and made it look a little better.
