  • I think I have the opposite issue. I’m deceptively calm. I think I can count two times in my life when I’ve shown anger, and they involved extreme circumstances. I don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing because sometimes I just let things eat me up on the inside instead of expressing them in an outburst to get it over with.




























  • I never understood counting books this way. It would make sense if all books took the same time and effort. But you can read 30 modern novels in the same time and effort that would cost you in reading perhaps 1 book by, say, Hegel or Kant. I’m not saying that the easiest reads are useless or bad but they are different. Even in novels some are easy to get through and I might read one in 3 days or so, while some can take me a month to parse. Unless you are speaking of a specific kind of books requiring roughly the same effort, the measuring of number of books doesn’t convey much information.
