Oooft, for me it would be a room full of classic 80's arcade machines all set to free play.

Almost certain doom!

@EricAlper

I can do this!

*sees “computer science texts, 1970-1998”*

I can’t do this.

@EricAlper Make it a library and I’m not getting out.
@EricAlper
Books. No way out.

Isn't that basically the ending of The Name of the Rose?

@EricAlper Just the SFF section, then I can walk right out. Oh wait, they have some board games. Better check the discounted bin. Damnit, they got me.
@EricAlper are there chairs? I was at a bookstore yesterday and it did not have chairs.

@EricAlper

I can relate to this. When I was about 9 years old, I was locked into a Waldenbooks in a Mall in Miami, Florida after closing because they didn't see me reading in a corner. Long before cameras and angled mirros.

@EricAlper The bookstore is where I go to escape.

@EricAlper Been there, done that.

Family gave me only one hour to visit. I think that for a first time visit three hours would have been fairer. I've told the family I'll want a full afternoon next time.
