Hopefully, what one "gets out of history" is the ability to resist asking sophomoric questions on internet discussion boards.

Grumbler once again shows his class. 

Must be hard being himself, given how much condescension he tries to project.

I find the question of what you get out of fiction more interesting. I've been thinking about it a lot lately. I've become a hardcore Trollope fan, and I can't work out what it is about him I enjoy so much.

Here's an idea, you should start a thread about that question; you could well get some more interesting answers than in this thread.

I don't think it deserves a thread

I try to keep the number of threads I start to a minimum.  Otherwise we'd have threads with titles like "what is your favorite and least favorite architecture styles", or "If trapped on a desert island with every member of Languish, who would be the best to cannibalize first?"

Of course.  And I teach sophomores to know better.
