Daniel Khent — Bookmarking Alignment. You...
Then there’s the person who used a fish.
What? Like a dried fish? What kind of fish? A mackerel? Halibut?
Dead, not dried, goldfish. 😂
Ok
What part of that right there was in an way OK?
Just meant message received. Haha
Yeah it was not okay. 😂 The librarian who dealt with it will curse them for years.
& the taco
Lord what is wrong with people?
🤷🏼♀️
Chaotic evil *shame*
It’s never too late!
I tend to lose bookmarks. I don't know how😂 I admit that if it's a graphic novel I'll probably use a post-it note instead
Chaotic Good! The library slips. 🤣
Library hold slips stay in the book BETTER than bookmarks supposedly designed for that purpose!
ABSOLUTELY!!
...I use a proper bookmark...some I have purchased, some I have made...have a few. If I purchase a book, I have learned to use it: write notes, underlines, pages folded in half. It's mine.
Chaotic good.😇
Could I ask, who would put a book down mid sentence though?
That should sit in the Chaotic Evil section. 😳
Well, Daddy is needed NOW not at the end of the sentence 😃
See.
Chaos!
Also. Nope. 😁
I do always use an actual bookmark, though 🙂
😁😁👍
Neutral and chaotic evil make me scream
Does it count as a real bookmark if I laminated a leaf and add a cute piece of ribbon to it?
I'd argue laying the book face down is way more chaotic than the dog ear
Certainly once pages start falling out it's more chaotic.
Where do we stand on using the flyleaf as a bookmark?
That's neutral good (certainly better than the silly pointers),
at least until the cover has wandered off from the book.
Using it in other books is chaotic good.
A fine catergorisation
👍
Gets complicated once you get to the middle of the book.
You just need to make a decision when to switch to the rear flap
(I say this in all innocence of any possible misinterpretations)
the resulting damage to the cover feels like it ought to be chaotic
Yeah but, when you're done, the leaf goes back to where it should be and the weight of the book straightens it out.
Good as new.
Hence, neutral
Lotta assumptions being made about the % of books completed round my house 😬
All, bar remembering the page number and the sentence pointer.
I’d add other acts, but fear recrimination.
Chaotic good 👍
Another book as bookmark
Usually, chaotic good.
True neutral
And if you find anyone who is chaotic evil call the police immediately! 😀
Bingo.
Non-fiction = chaotic evil for pages I want to review, chaotic good for where I left off. So both in the same book there. It's a pretty good system actually...
Fiction - mass market is nearly any of them, "important" fiction is chaotic good, true neutral, or lawful good if it exists.
I'm either chaotic good or lawful evil. No in-between.
I was NE as a teenager but then all teenagers are
I reposted saying dog ear for life, but I do remember a time where I would just "lightly fold" the page in half and set the book aside. Where does that go on the chart?
Quasi evil I'm guessing
I think I've done all of these except for neutral good
Wait a second. According to this I was a chaotic evil kid and then grew up to be a chaotic good adult. I am pretty sure my moral arc has gone in the opposite direction.
I don't know. Books are a pretty good diagnostic...
Kids are quite evil. Maybe I am holding my adult self up to a higher standard than that book ruining demon that I once was.
more respect for book, less respect for capitalism 👍🏼
Chaotic good and now chaotic neutral lol
where do all the sweeties who use adorable magnetic clips fit, answer: NOWHERE we are out of this world
I use these all the time 😸
As a child (under 10) I was apparently chaotic evil.
Nowadays I am very much a "Fuck fuck, I wanna save this page, what can I use, oh! That thank you card I got from that Etsy shop, you are my saviour!" type of chaotic good.
Chaotic good - my books have more scraps of paper than the recycling bin does
Evil across the board, as far as book habits go.
A lot of my proper bookmarks used to be envelopes when they arrived in the mail.
I like to grab a few paint samples to use for bookmarks. 😂
Chaotic good
Chaotic good and true neutral.
Not all notebooks have a ribbon though
Wait! Mine is literally a sprouted bookmark leaf!! 🤔⁉️
I'm an aspiring lawful evil, but always regret it. Sometimes lawful neutral. Rest of the time, chaotic good.
dog earing, is at worse, neutral evil, since there is some minor damage to the book. it's a super common and effective strategy. i'd reserve "chaotic evil" for things like the guy that rips out the pages when he's finished them.
Right, so ... what if I use all of the above? 😬
The escalation of chaotic evil would be the dog ear in a book, that actually comes with a book ribbon.
I'm Neutral Evil or Chaotic Evil if it's my book and Chaotic Good if it's from the library.

what does it say about me that if you combine all the alignment charts ever made, i have like a 98% "chaotic good"
I have progressed, from chaotic evil,
to chaotic good,
only ever used a leaf once, as it left a mark.
Lawful good (if there is one)
Chaotic good
Neutral evil
Chaotic evil (only sometimes, I'm not a monster)
I don't use a bookmark on ebooks because the app or whatever remembers where you are?
I used to be Chaotic Evil, but I have since become Lawful Good (kinda, I use a magnetic clip-on with a ribbon on it).
I'm definitely Chaotic Good or Chaotic Evil, depending on whether or not there is anything handy to mark the page with.
I have in fact used a cicada as a bookmark.
I have the time it’s just there’s never a good time. I’d give you some of mine if I could.
Chaotic good or chaotic evil. I do have proper bookmarks, but they are never to hand when I need one!
Woman says : I have a child who doesn’t like fish… I don’t know what to change it with ?
Man: a cat. cats love fish
Chaotic Good. I use the library slips. 🤣🤣🤣
North!
I eat a lot of fish, so it is good to know I will have some available too!
I fish. People ask how I feel when I get skunked. It's OK because
1. I don't have to catch fish to have a good day fishing, I just like being on the water
2. I don't have to deal with fish I've caught.
If it's a book I'm reading for fun, usually chaotic good; sometimes true neutral if I have one handy.
If it's a book I'm using for school or work then often one of the evils. Most often neutral evil, then chaotic evil. Sometimes lawful evil but I write it down in my notebook rather than memorize.
I don't remeber the comedian who said it, but "a goldfish cost a $1.50. What kind of fish you using?"
I have transcended good and evil, chaotic and lawful (started writing down what page I'm on in a spreadsheet)
have you seen some of the commenters I get? it's fish in a barrel with a hand grenade.
Chaotic good or chaotic evil. I have got proper bookmarks, but I can never find them when I need them
There's like 19 Nemos!! One is a fish, have you heard of the damn fish, I sure have!!
I have a character who I wanted to make a fish of some kind, but I think I wanna make him an eel. What kind of eel tho 🤔
I don't have it up right now, but when I have a second screen it's chaotic good
ok enough being chaotic.
time to make some good coffee, eat fish over rice and paint something neat.
then, i think about what cool chaotic shit i can do this year. i'm not making a difference rn and it bugs me. /gen
I have a deba, it is kinda wasted because I don’t really work with whole fish, but still it’s good to have. You never know!
okay hold the phone, though, I want to know about this fish-eating-fish story. Was it a betta fish and everybody was just unaware of them? was it some kind of illicit fish that should have never been in a tank? what kind of freaky grey market pet fish store were you going to? what the hell!
Well, I try to be a good person. I'm chaotic, but in a fun, feral way. I don't have any use for cops or arbitrary laws. I'm not evil. So, I figured that's a good spot.
