I saw a guy with a "No merci" tattoo today ... I wonder if it was meant to mean "no mercy" or "non, merci" ... or maybe it's not a spelling error at all but shows his dislike for a certain chocolate called "Merci"?

The dislike for the chocolate would be hard to understand though, since the packages come with different types of chocolate and you can always sort out the ones you hate and graciously offer them to your guests. Not that I would ever do that of course. I always share all kinds with guests ... I just eat my way around the bad ones while I'm at it :p


Also - I finished City of Bones and found it kind of insignificant and now I'm reading two vampire books and they aren't really five star material either ... and ... I just wonder if I have become too picky with my reading. Didn't a friend on here say something very similar recently? Maybe, when you're reading a lot you have higher expectations and get more easily bored because there are only so many ways a plot can go and you are more likely to guess them?
