1. I don't really see the point of writing fiction. When I do write it is almost exclusively thoughts that have been stuck in my head that need to be released through some medium.
2. Every story in Dubliners is very comfy.
3. I see no reason to use that word. If I plan to insult someone for being celibate I would use a more creative slur.
4. I don't care about any "established" literary politics
5. I have many original thoughts about the books I read. The problem is how does one know if their thoughts are original if not everyone's thoughts on a particular piece are accessible. That's stupid. Only God can know that, and I am not God.
6. I am 21. While I am no genius allow me to remind you that Mozart wrote his first symphony at age 8.
7. Assuming that there is a cutoff for excellence is a false mentality.
8. No one can be right about everything.
9. I like showcasing my organizational skills.
10. I rarely start threads, but when I do they are not meant to ask questions or get yer noggin joggin more to troll and to create jest.
11. I have never visited that website before. I imagine it says that many of the books that are in /lit/'s yearly top 100 books are in it which would make everyone who uses this board a brainlet.
12. I have never done that.
13. When I first discovered 4chan(circa 2008) I would shitpost for hours on /b/ with posts that contain well under 5 words. I imagine my average is still under 10 words per post simply due to my old barrages of filler.
14. I am not a fast reader. I read very slowly and end up most of the time having to read sections multiple times.
15. I have never done that. The closest thing I would do is just calling someone whose opinion I don't like a "faggot".
16. Western civilization is not in a decline, it is shifting, but a decline is too pessimistic for my taste.
17. In public yes, online no.
18. In all cases no. For example the Lord of the Ring movies were far better than the books.
19. It's fun to use
20. I don't own a car and when I move I try to move at the slowest rate possible.
21. Never read one, not even to be ironic.
22. I have mostly been exposed to secondary sources, and I don't think that one is especially fit to be solely for learning. A combination of primary and secondary is necessary to ensure proactive learning.
23. I have been in a deep depression for many years now, but I have been turning around gradually.
24. God is Good
25. I haven't read any of his works yet.
