I don't know, what reading level are you at in that regard?

Just completed Higgs' latest book - Stranger Than We Can Imagine: An Alternative History of the 20th Century.

I found my eagerness increasing with each successive chapter while Higgs ushered his readers from one decade to the next. By the time I reached postmodernism (expertly described in the context of Super Mario Bros) and the pivotal transition from the hierarchical absolutist worldview to the communal network culture of the millennials, I was on the edge of my socio-cultural seat.

A brilliant read!

I don't care what your talking about; no matter what it is you manage to make it infinitely more interesting and cultured

Please write a book.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

Reading a post where a moderator is sucking up to a member because said member is infinitely more hipster, cool, and pretentious, than said moderator is.
