Yes, it happens a lot. Maybe it is to generate more profit, but I also know, that books translated in German need 15-20% more space and pages than in English for example. The first book of "A Song of Ice and Fire" would have more than thousand pages in a paperback, so I understand, why they split each book in two parts.

I was hoping for a time machine or something... :<

The first thing that came into my mind was an incident that happened a few years back.

And friend and I walked down a quite street that had many apartment buildings. Suddenly in one building, just at the entrance, there was a weird fight happening. One man stole the luggage from another man. They did not yell at each other, they did not hurt each other. They were only fighting for that black luggage. As soon as the thief was successful, he fled with the suitcase into a car and drove away. We asked the other man if he needs our help as witnesses and if we should call the police. But he kept weirdly calm about it. He said he knows the thief.

I still wonder, what was in that suitcase and how this weird situation played out from the beginning.

Yes, the crystal! I still have the scribbles of my map I drew back then. I loved the feeling to get "lost" in there.

Dragon Age: Origins. BioWare has the talent to fill your heart with lovely characters and their stories until it overflows with joy and care, only to stab a knife into it to make you bleed. Beautifully painful. :)

Was hätte man denn von der "Klimapanik"? Also, was glauben denn die Skeptiker des Klimawandels, was man damit bewirken möchte? Ich verstehe nicht, wie man da eine Verschwörung sehen kann.

It makes me sad to see what happens on Reddit, but actions like this keep my hopes up. Not for Reddit itself, but for the community and its people, wherever it will be. :)

A great history lesson! :D

To add something to your wonderful story: In Germany many toilets had (maybe still have?) a poop shelf, for similar reasons, as far as I know. I haven't seen them in ages, but I remember them when I was little.
