Weekend Reading
It’s Friday!
Literary Stuff
- For Breaking Bad fans: Walter White’s “I am the one who knocks” as written by other authors. We’re still catching up to the final season!
- You can now read Mary Shelley’s original handwritten manuscripts of Frankenstein online.
- Your favorite books and their original, awful titles. The Great Gatsby (reviewed on here this week) was originally supposed to be called: “Trimalchio In West Egg.” Ew!
- This awesome Reddit thread from a few months back asking Redditors to submit their best two-sentence horror stories.
- A look at the Talmud, the book of Jewish law, that has surged in popularity.
- I posted this link yesterday, but it’s worth a repost. Decorative Gourd Season.
Insightful Articles
- This article from The New York Times that explores happiness in long-term relationships, particularly the ‘new love’ bliss, how long it lasts, and reasons for disappearing.
- This Huffington Post piece from Greg Savage that asks when it became ok for people to be late to everything. I can’t agree more!
For Fun
- These honest slogans are hysterical.
