Personally, I feel like the most important parts of a book are plot and characters. Everything comes secondary, including how the book is written. If plot or characters are bad, I probably won't enjoy the story even if it is well-written.

I wonder if it is possible to meaningfully appreciate literature without going deep into prose. Most literacy analyses I've read often have a part where they discuss some specific aspect of prose like hidden nuance of a word or something. Are prose essential for analysis? How much I can get out of a book if I don't care about prose?

After seeing how smoking scenes are depicted, I have an urge to try out smoking for the first time. I am completely aware how smoking is bad for health but I think there's no harm if I do it once. Where to find fine cigarettes?

The full effect of this card is confusing to me:

> While you have a "Toon" card in your field or GY, your opponent must keep their hand revealed, also you can look at their Set cards at any time. If you have a Toon monster and a "Toon" Spell in your field and/or GY: You can declare 1 card name that is not among the cards/effects activated in this Chain; negate the activated effects of cards with that original name until the end of this turn, while this card is face-up on the field. You can only use this effect of "Mind Scan" once per turn.

I don’t understand the purpose of the bold line. I assume "this card" refers to mind scan itself. Doesn’t it sound redundant? You can’t activate effect of a trap while it is faced down, no?

Bonus Q for those who can understand jp:

> このカード名の②の効果は１ターンに１度しか使用できない。①：自分のフィールドか墓地に「トゥーン」カードが存在する限り、相手は手札を全て公開し続け、自分は相手フィールドの裏側表示カードをいつでも確認できる。②：自分のフィールド・墓地にトゥーンモンスター及び「トゥーン」魔法カードが存在する場合、同一チェーン上で効果を発動していないカード名を１つ宣言して発動できる。このカードが表側表示で存在する間、ターン終了時まで宣言したカードと元々のカード名が同じカードが発動した効果は無効化される。

In the first sentence, shouldn’t このカード名 be このカード? Is it typo?

So I have over 10000 tabs combined in my pc’s browser spanning multiple windows, safari in my iphone, browser in my android phone. I want to begin organizing my tabs. Any tips? How long it might take to sort everything?

So I was reading monster arc in comix and I noticed there is a huge jump from punch 167 (the coolest hero) to punch 168 (gains). I wonder what happened there?

I have no idea what the word "family" means. What draws line between a family member and a stranger? If I pick a random people on this planet around my age, the chances are that they are my 13th cousin or something but can they be considered my family?

I am located in Canada and I am an unemployed loser who have no hope for employment of any kind after obtaining math degree. I have no experience and network. I am thinking about going to rit for cs masters. I wonder if it is worth a gamble in current tech market. Also I am hearing impaired if it matters.

Nowadays I noticed near me there are lots of young ppl into gundam or other anime tcgs. I have no interest in them. I wonder where are yugioh players these days. Where do they hang out?

I made a grave mistake of applying for graduation on January and I can't undo my application because I fulfilled all my degree requirements. I am genuinely depressed about the thought of attending graduating ceremony next month and I am considering skipping it.

To me, graduation is a death sentence. I feel like a prisoner on death row awaiting an execution. So far in my UBC career, I have achieved literally nothing. I have average grades but no coops or real work experience. As a commuter, I have never got involved in clubs. I don't have anyone who I can consider "friend." I am basically cooked to ashes once I officially graduate. I can't imagine there are any companies in current market who can hire nobody like me to do software/IT work. I don't have anything to show besides a handful of personal projects.

I will likely become a NEET leaching off my parents after graduation.
