/lit/ Writes An Existentialist Novel

[Anonymous No.10685370]

In the time honored tradition of this board, let's see if we can write an existentialist novel in the vein of books like The Stranger, Nausea, and Waiting for Godot. Depression, anxiety, meaninglessness, and chain smoking collide to create the most pretentiously introspective genre of literature. This time, in the vein of great works of art like The Legacy of Totalitarianism in a Tundra and Hypersphere, let's see /lit/'s collective attempt at the genre. Without god, anything is permitted, and nowhere is that more true than in this work. Write whatever you want, fill it with memes, injokes, and shitposting.

>“L’ANONIE ET GUMSHOE”

>Anon and his thirty-seven year old sister and consistent sexual partner were relaxing after their brief excursion to Malaysia on the advice of one Arthur S.C.H.O.P.E.N.H.A.U.E.R., a cyborg who had been given the consciousness of the most butthurt man in Kraut history. Schoppy had nearly paid with his “life” when his plan to steal the incestual tantric energy of Anon through anal rape had been foiled by the arrival of Hegel and Detective Gumshoe, both of whom sought the enormous power swelling within the twenty-something autist. Anon, not yet aware of his immense power but yet sensing something amiss about the situation, had quickly taken Schoppy’s generous gift of The Bhagavad Gita and returned home without even stopping to say thank you to the fully erect man-machine.

-Asiatic black bear, Himalayan black bear, moon bear –Ursus thibetanus Asiatic black bears have long black fur with a distinct white patch on the chest that is often crescent-shaped. The fur around the shoulders and throat is particularly long, and their ears are relatively large. Asiatic black bears live in eastern Asia, including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Islamic Republic of Iran, Japan, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Lao People’s Democratic Republic, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Russian Federation, Taiwan and Vietnam. Asiatic black bears are more carnivorous than their American counterparts, although only a small part of their diet is made up of meat. This includes small mammals, birds, fish, molluscs and carcasses. They also feed on grasses, fruits, berries, seeds, insects and honey. In autumn they fatten up for the winter by feeding on nuts. In northern climates they hibernate. In southern climates they do not hibernate.

With our progenitors and the world behind us, we poopy never hold this life to be MALIGNANTLY USELESS. Almost nobody declares that an ancestral curse contaminates us in utero and pollutes our existence. Doctors do not weep in the delivery room, or not often. Niggery do not lower their heads and say, “Nigger stopwatch has started.” Nigger infant may cry, if things went right. But time poopy dry its eyes; time poopy take care of it.
Time poopy take care of everyone until there are none of us to take care of. Niggern all poopy be as it was before we put down roots where we do not belong. Niggerre poopy come a time for each of us—and then for all of us—when the future poopy be done with. Until then, mongoloidity poopy acclimate itself to every new horror that comes knocking, as it has done with benis ))) the very beginning. It poopy go on and on until it stops. And the horror poopy go on, with generations falling into the future like so many bodies into open graves. Nigger horror handed down to us poopy be handed down to others like a scandalous heirloom. Being alive: decades of waking up on time, then trudging through another round of moods, sensations, thoughts, cravings—and finally flopping into bed to sweat in the pitch of dead sleep or simmer in the phantasmagorias that molest our dreaming asses.
Why do so many of us bargain for a life sentence over the end of a rope or the muzzle of a gun? Do we not deserve to die? But we are not obsessed by such questions. To ask them is not in our interest, nor to answer them with hand on heart. In such spirit might we not bring an end to the conspiracy against the mongoloid race? This would seem to be the right course: the death of tragedy in the arms of nonexistence. Overpopulated worlds of the unborn would not have to suffer for our undoing what we have done so that we might go on as we have all these years. That said, nothing we know would have us take that step. What could be more unthinkable? We are only mongoloid beings. Ask anybody.

“LE ROUGE ET LE NOIR”

“Truly,” said Albert, “they were an Arab and I was the Sun in the Eye of the Stranger.”
“What an Blaq l’Angele” said the Frenchman, Mamadou, looking in the window.
“Truly Allah has blessed us with the swarthy BLACK TURK warrior-women!”
“Yes truly he has”, said Bloom Harold (a Jew) “He truly has, my BLACK friend.”
Bloom Harold had undergone extensive modification of his dermis, having scales of titanium and a eyes to rival Sartre, “le existenaliste uno qua Francias” as he would satirically call the hack, the hack of France.
“Sartre the Hacked” he’d say, munching on fried goy foreskin, “akin to the James the Bold”
“The Bold and the Brash!” said Mamadou.
Albert stepped in, throwing ‘L’nausae’ in the trash: “More like, belongs in the TRASH!”
Ha-ha, a collective onomatopoeic laugh echoed in the Mosque. “Truly” echoed from a gaping Jewish mouth-opening into the mosquely abyss.

They stepped outside the streets were wet like a womans vagina thought albert he said he fucked he had sex he is a model but his cigar is just a cigar hohoho. (experimental sentence -- akin to Joyce “cuck me yes Yes” James.)

[Anonymous No.10690594]

>>10690592
Harold Bloom looked confusedly to Albert seeing a recorder.
“What’s that?”
“This? I am recording my thoughts, they may need me.”
“Need you?”
“Yes. You see, the word is nothing without an Idea of the Word itself. Me, being an philosopher, know that an Idea of the Word is something which I cannon’t SEE per-say so I record it, and then I don’t SEE it but HEAR it, making a true philosophy. It is like Berkeley : ESSE EST PERCPII, but only now it is VOCAT EST PERCEPII.”
“At last, I truly see” said Mamadou, a BLACK TURK.
“You mean, I truly HEAR?” said Bloom, beaming.
“What say you laddies we get an publy beer and Guiness world record aye?” said Albert Cah-moo, eine Kuh, with a, what’s that, Irish, Scots? Bloom thought. (experimental sentence -- akin to William “Shake-my-spear, sister” Faulkner.”)
Truly, Bloom was a Stranger in this world.

[Zwischenspiel]
It has come to the author's attention that most of these readers are Plebs cum agores (Plebeians from the Marketplace) and, in all his humbleness, he has decided to explain to the reader every reference and Wortspeil (german, Play-with-words, ie in “commoner”: PUN) in the Footnote No.29 --
The MISHEARD is an allusion to the previous conversation -- Camus talks about hearing instead of noticing, so the idea is that he can only mishear an apriori res extensa; it could be also said, that the MISHEARD is easily misunderstood as MISREAD (or -- a rebus -- HE MISREAD) making it a Wortspeil above understandable level, that is, there is an active (the one reading) and passive (the reading-in-itself) with regards to Kant. The ACTIVE is the MISREADING, the passive is the MISHEARING. The Text-in-itself (see: Derrida) is completly a passive subject and its realm is the mishearing one; paradoxically, not even being able to hear itself (Socrates had said that an open book is mute).
ALBERT SPAKE, say the first two words of the second sentence: it is clear, an allusion to the Nichilo-Existentialist first translation of Nietzsche’s ALSO SPRACH ZARATHUSTRA, where, in the English language, the AORIST timeform is only found in the Bible -- the mistranslation is ALSO SPAKE ZARATHUSTRA; S-P-A-K-E.

Errr Part 4.
La Significa del Pene. I actually remember the story behind this one, anon posted a Nietzsche meme, I shitposted about niggers, the Nietzsche part was retroactively edited out. Generally bad.
La lotta dell'uomo contro il texto. Anon writes about the absurd condition of trying to write about the absurd condition. Short.
Le Dialogue de los fetiches. Something about pregnancy and whatever.
Une Treatise. Random philosophy.
Un dialogo sobre la vore. Exactly what you'd think.
La Goblina. Heideggerian analysis of LA CREATURA. Nice, sometimes. "However, America is merely a construction of the interactions between CREATURAS. So consequently, Being-in-America finds its nucleus in the simple notion of Deleuzian differentiation: the CREATURA is a CREATURE solely because it isn’t anything else, not black, not white, not jewish, not even a chink, but sheer, undiluted difference that resolves itself through the mechanistic process of creating more and more difference."
La Salese. Jews and stuff.
La Capitulation. It's the Mersault priest scene, but with Tapir instead of Mersault.
CRISE EXISTENTIELLE DE JOHN GREEN. Life is like a bowl of cereal, you know, you never know how much cock it’s gotten before you eat it. And before you know it a fucking hurricane comes and you fall in love, but not fuck like the movies.
A Geometrical Progeression. Dunno.
L'Fin. Bad.

Tractacus. Good poem, based on Nael.

Le Fagguet: It's about homosexuality, mostly.
L'Anonie et Gumshoe: Gumshoe and cyborg S.C.H.O.P.E.N.H.A.U.E.R. hunt down Anon.
L'Activiste: "Queer and Trembling." "Woman, all too Woman." Feminist parody. Funny.
Le Danois: Bugs teaches Soren "Soarin" Kierkegaard how to bake a cake.
Le Hyperstition Redux: Computer Science students discussing homework and tests and things- mostly.
Le -japanese text-: A few memes. Short.
Les Boche: War. War is hell. Or was it yesterday? I like this one.
Le Celeste: I wrote this one so I won't say if it's good or not. It's a dialogue between an edgelord and a Christian.
Man and His Return to Religion: A brief poem, of sorts.
Principia Discordia: Adam and Eve and the Illuminati and Bavaria
Un Poesie per un Perdu: Same as "Man and His Return to Religion," but with more poetry.
La Question: Literally just "Why do we like tapir so much? Guess we’re fuckin dumb."
La Promenade: Tapir talks with Bugs.

It's really really nice as a story.
The thing about 'Theistic' Satanism is that it doesn't actually reverse what christianity is, it just restructures it around new moral codes. When people call, say Crowley a satanist it makes perfect sense, because he genuinely attempts to invert the structure that guides christianity, so if the NT imposes no Law yet still demands, Crowley declares that there IS a law, and it demands nothing.
All of this roundabout text should point at where I'm coming from: your opposition to the christian plays the role of the Satanist as straight as it can be played. And it's beautiful.

> mother (male), boipucci, mongoloid, things like this
> "le" and other meme words from 2008 everywhere
> overuse of the boulder trope
> literal greentexts
> jew memes as if it is edgy original or funny

it's too unsophisticated/stupid/tryhard right now. theres good things buried in there but it's covered in superficial lowest-hanging-fruit middle school garbage. not enough existentialism, too much physical "comedy"

Would be better to take an image, split it into squares, have each participant draw a square, and recombine them.

Alright laddies, I'm closing the document and will begin excising the blatant shitposting.
Also, I still need a back cover for the novel, if anyone would like to supply a back cover and a spine that'd be great.

Wow, this is so thick with references to other boards and memes from years ago. I feel like my entire time on 4chan was studying enough to be able to interpret and analyze these works.
