TIL I'm both chaotic good and lawful evil

Chaotic Evil would be ripping out every page you've read.

I was in the memorizing the page number gang, but then I had to go on valprolates.

Chaotic evil here. Books exist to be read, anything you do to aid that endeavor is justifiable

I'm not represented here. My two go-to's are powering through to the next chapter so I don't have to remember the page number, even though it's way too late, or using whatever random shit I can find to wedge into the book. Most recently it was a can of bullets.

You don't memorize the page number, you just sort of remember where you are and find it

I'm all over the board.

Chaotic war-crime: dog-ear where you make the fold exactly big enough so it points to the line you left off on.

Yes I did this sometimes as a kid and I still feel bad for the librarians who had to see the devastation I wrought.

Just a reminder that you shouldn't put plants in your book – seriously, that can ruin the paper.

Today I learned I'm neutral evil.

I read books to read what's inside them, not to save them forever as objects. So chaotic evil it is. Unless there is a receipt handy.

Book Darts are the way. The only way. (That's a "sentence pointer" made out of copper. It's archival quality, so it won't damage your book, even if you leave it there for a very long time.)

I'm lawful evil. But I think they mixed up neutral evil and chaotic evil.

Burning the page you just finished reading so you can read the next page, while standing there in a dark labyrinth ~~where a minotaur is lurking~~.

I fold dog ears everywhere, in variable sizes. The bigger the dog ear, the more important the passage.

Where does using the flyleaf as a bookmark fall on the scale of evil?

Tear the page you're on out and keep it in your pocket to look back to when you need to start again and you can find the page # on the torn out page. /S

Chaotic good. I have bookmarks, I just forget to use them.

I have a very old book (published in 1794) that has leaves, spiders, some writing, as well as fire and water damage. Not worth anything in the condition it's in, but it's mine and I love it. I've always wanted to know why there were spiders in it, but I'm thankful it's not bound in human leather.

Save for a few I bought second hand, and the first book I ever owned (I managed to have it signed by the author 20 years later) the rest of my books look like they are fresh off a bookstore shelf.

ebook is the only way to guarantee I can read the book. page material and gloss, layout, spacing, kerning, etc. can all combine in various ways to make me inexplicably unable to read or have a really hard time reading where I have to focus really hard on each letter rather than each sentence. Oled has made is possible for me to read large bodies of text on phones but for full books I always go for the eink.

Chaotic Good, or I'm just listening to an audio book.

As with tradition, chaotic good.

behold. LEAF

I'm re-reading Eye of the World for the first time in about 15 year and see both CG and CE going on in spades...

I listen to audiobooks

Guess I'm chaotic good. Library gives a receipt for checked out books and even puts it in the book, so I just use that.

Ugh, I feel unrepresented. I sort of remember where I was, read a bit to see if I recognize it, and then skip a little forward or backwards depending. I have definitely skipped entire chapters before because the style/sentences sounded like what I remember.

I'm consistently in the middle of many, many books. I use dollar bills so I get a reward for actually finishing.
