Tell me! You're nerds, right? And you have stuff?

[thebitterguy]

I'm gonna start with a generalization that we, as geeks, will accumulate stuff. Our hobbies tend to be based around things, whether books of some kinds (periodical graphic novels and collections and rpg books and paperback novels and old pulp magazines)

I'm also going to state that we tend to let them out to like-minded folk. Can I borrow your copy of X? is a common question.

So, I have questions.

And I would like to just state right now, if I've fucked conjugating the word "to lend/loan/let" repeatedly, I am sorry.

I tend to view all my things as being universally communal. I'll lend anything to anyone, and am not very posessive about getting them back. I have enough general faith in people that I figure most of it will be returned, and I don't care enough about anything to let the rare occasion when something goes AWOL deter me from the project as a whole. So I'll lose some stuff. No biggie. Small price to pay for rampant sharing!
