Do you know where you are?

This is by far one of the worst things in existence. Why would anyone buy this. Why do you like the cartoonish look? Are you an actual imbecile? What the fuck were they thinking when they put this together?

I hope Bloom doesn't find out about this, I don't want him to have a heart attack.

No, no, my dear. Quite wrong. You may only choose one of the phrases preceded by a green angle bracket.

You're reacting as if Marx is some indispensable, canonical author and not a historical curiosity.

I never thought I'd live to see /lit/ defend harry potter.

They're about as artistic as Breaking Bad. Think of how much money it takes to produce, market, and sell video games and think of the number of people involved. Then think of how many people are involved in writing a book.

If your "art form" is completely dependent on a market of young male consumers then it's going to be shit. See also: fantasy novels.

I don't get it do people get a rise out of pretending to be "le redpilled"?
I see a bunch of posts everyday by people acting out on their image of the /pol/ boogeyman, why do they do this?
Is it shills? Shitposting? Bait?
Just explain to me.

I find him funny in small doses but Taipei was just a grind. Someone as uncharismatic as Towelin should not broadcast his entire life to the internet like some tween girl with a nexopia account in my opinion. At least he doesn't upload pictures of his advance cheques yet. Our fucked up generation deserves a better writer, for example where's our Almost Transparent Blue (which apparently Shaolin liked)

I guess kids like boring books with swearing and sex in them

wow medieval europe great setting for a fantasy novel george no one has ever thought of that before

wow knights and peasants lords and ladies this will be familiar and easy to digest. I mean I like "Speculative Fiction" and read 1.5 of these ASOIAF shits and they're just not that good. At least people fighting over them reminds me of the old days of /lit/

>sports

that's just one thing I will never get. Sitting around watching highly paid retards run around chasing balls and yelling at eachother makes zero sense. who cares who wins? the few times i was forced to watch that crap as part of a family occasion I was bored stiff. I don't even watch the olympics, why should i it has nothing to do with me. I mean when the booker prize is announced do drunken idiots disrupt traffic and fuck up downtown?

Does Harold Bloom post on /lit/?
