Dunk paradise and put in a library

Home
Published by dchud on September 21st, 2006

Today was one of those days where you tear your hair out for hours only to realize that the new stuff you're using and had just updated now has a critical name clash with your old stuff and there isn't much of anything you can do about it.

And where you take a break upon realizing this to go to one of your favorite restaurants for mole poblano only to realize that it's not there anymore and in its place is a Dunkin' Donuts.

All these years we librarians have fought our little battles over whether we should open little coffee stands in the library. But the answer's been right in front of us: we should open little libraries inside of coffee shops.
