Re: people are apparently shelving books 'backwards' (page first) and other people are mad

Lots of people already buy books for display only, including fake blocks sculpted like a row of antique books, so I guess this isn't that far a stretch.

Though yes, I agree it's one of those obnoxiously pretentious little details that doesn't really matter but is immediately off-putting.

That said, I am waaaaaaay more horrified at people who cut up books for crafts. Now, if it's a common and useless book, fine, like if you want to chop up Twilight to make a tacky lamp base power to you, but mostly people do it to vintage and antique books unfortunate enough to "look cool" and I'm just like holy fuck noooooo...
