If you don't like a book that you are reading, do you finish reading it anyway? Or do you put it aside and read something else?
Most of the time, yes, I finish reading.

Sometimes, it's been a factor of getting acclimated to the author's style - - both in fiction and non-fiction books.

Thank goodness ( for me, at least ), she and that kick-a** tornado scene are the only two ingredients that keep that movie from falling into gushy, over-the-top sentimentality :)

Why are Nickelback so disliked?
I've heard much dislike for them, too.
To me, I don't much like them because somehow, to me, so many of the songs I've heard of theirs sound the same.
I don't very much like the lead singer's voice,either.
On the other hand, everything Enya does sort of sounds the same, too, and I like her a lot, so some of my reasoning about Nickelback doesn't hold water!

Do women like when a guy shaves his whole body? I do it I'm muscular and I think it looks Clean
I'm coming from a gay male's perspective but, in my opinion, "Hair, no hair, some hair" all can look great.
If you like how you feel/look, I'd think your satisfaction and ease with yourself could only help in your attractiveness-quota or whatever.
In general, I'd think some women would like it, some wouldn't, and to some it wouldn't matter.

I feel world weary, I know I will bounce back, but how do you cope in these situations?
~ When I get really weary, "focusing" on the positives doesn't work. It sometimes strikes a false air within me.
Yet, at the least, I do find simply 'acknowledging' the positives helps keep me in a somewhat neutral state and that can prevent me from become more and more weary.
~ I try to accept the feelings I have, rather than 'fighting myself' into a different state of mind.

Though many times, the effort is worth the time and can be valuable in one's life.

Do you like to watch movie trailers?
I absolutely hate to see trailers.

If I'm with mates, I always offer to get the treats and refreshments during the trailers.
If I'm alone, and if it's a trailer for a movie I might want to see, I've actually plugged my ears , closed my eyes and went " lalalalala"
