A colleague, whom I worked with previously at the other place downstairs, and who nowadays likes to pop by my desk and talk his fill of rubbish, said to me today, after looking at my latest read on my table.
"Reading one book a week just means that you've got nothing better to do. You need to get yourself a guy."
Then he adds "want to take out an ad? It'll just say something like, 'looking for someone, have strict requirements - must be a man'."
I laugh it off and stare daggers into his back as he walks away.

woah that was mean and tactless.
anyway is that a new nick hornby book i see? paperback out yet?
well i was about to write up a post on it but here's a short version: it's a collection of his columns from The Believer magazine.
Did a search on the Kino website for it but they don't seem to have it. Then again, a search for "nick hornby" only threw up one result, and it wasn't even written by him - methinks they need to redo their search site.
gosh, that was just so rude.
some people can be so insensitive.
