It seems that it is once again time for a periodic reminder of what behavior is acceptable where. Congratulations, everyone: it has been eight (8) months since my last post on this topic. A new record! However, let us not rest on our laurels, as I have recently borne witness to some of the most horrifying behavior yet.

Acceptable Library Behavior:
› Reading
› Quiet contemplation
› Listening to music
    › This insistence on Philip Glass over, say, Chopin continues to grate, but that is a topic for another time.
› Studying without narrating your thoughts aloud

Unacceptable Library Behavior:
› Eating fragrant foods
› Making out like a pair of schoolchildren
› Loudly humming to the aforementioned classical music, and in the wrong key
› Clipping your toenails ‼️

You may be asking yourselves: "Niko, surely no one is clipping their toenails in the library. Why even add that?" I regret to inform you that I saw it with my own eyes (I will not name names), and that it is the worst thing I have personally witnessed since Shaq's album release party in 1993. (Did you know Shaq released an album? Now you do.)

It is a small ship. Let us try to be kind to one another! And, if at all possible, spare each other such unpleasant sights.

[arasch]

Public shaming is very effective.

[witlessbay]

[arasch]

I like extremes.

[witlessbay]

[arasch]

Did I not just call it a monstrosity?

[witlessbay]

[arasch]

Keep it away from us.

[witlessbay]

i can already feel it coming back

[adequacies]

I assumed you were the toe guy.

[arasch]

Me too.

[adequacies]

Surely we have some spare tape somewhere to begin the Wall.

[witlessbay]

that was a hangnail and it was bugging me

[adequacies]

It’s very brave of you to admit to your secret hobby.

[witlessbay]

and it was on my hand, to be clear

[adequacies]

A convenient “clarification.”

[witlessbay]

you need to have more faith in me

[adequacies]

Not as much as you need to moisturize.

[witlessbay]

i shower

[adequacies]

I […] I never said you didn’t. They're not the same thing.

Cal, why do you believe it’s the same thing?

[witlessbay]
