Well, that certainly narrows it down. Thanks Oswald.

Doing fine. I've published one, another is in editing stage, two more finished drafts, two halfway through the first draft before I petered out (but I will return to both), one in planning stage that I'm going to start writing in a couple weeks, and one I've been thinking about for a year or so now but never got around to actually write.

Turn on all the fans you have, open windows, take a cold shower. Then just write like your life depended on it.

Another hilarious /pol/ poster!

There is something I can't remember. It's a story, but I can’t remember if it's a poem or a song or what. But it's about a cowboy who's on the run from the law when he meets a beautiful young girl and they plan to run away. But they get betrayed by someone else who loves this woman and the law comes and accidentally kills her instead of the cowboy. It's a fairly long story and I heard it in school if that helps. i vaguely remember there being a farm and the guy who betrayed the two lovers was described as not very attractive (stringy greasy hair, etc.)

>Trust me, it's not the first haha. I have looked at Plato, but Nietzsche just kind of destroys his idealism in "The Problem of Socrates". I assume you are pointing me towards Stoicism?

Go ahead and sage. I'm not entirely sure how I'd find a citation of it, m8. I kind of just thought it was common sense.

>>5573875
Yes! Exactly, I'm just saying this includes (but is not limited to) white super powers. That's why I probably should have said it was more of a cultural thing than a race issue (though when venturing to new regions, there tends to be a close tie with race and culture).

I don't get what you're trying to say, honestly. Your point is not even contradicting mine.

You got me, anon. absolutely epic :)

Anyone thinking somebody will read this book apart from /lit/ faggots is fucking delusional. We might as well keep the shitty parts in there because nobody will ever completely agree on what is shit and what is not. If we are lucky it goes down as /pol/s art post and becomes somewhat internet-cultury, otherwise we will all have a book on our shelves with which we have a nice emotional attachment.

Plus I think the chances of it gettings somewhat of a "cult" status are greater if it's shit, because then it symbolizes everything anonymous is about. Which is poop.

Nothing special. Jeans or combats, black timberlands, some random t-shirt and then usually a zip or zipless hoody.

I don't really give a fuck about looking good, I just wear whats comfortable. It works. Same with my backpack too really, see all these people on campus with some tiny little messenger bag and then half their shit under their arm. What is the point in having a bag if your shit doesn't fit in it?

You need to read between the lines my friend.

Why do you think she only has one shoe on? Why do you think everything stopped for her? Dude didn't just abandon her, he forcefully penetrated her and dumped her.

Not being married isn't social ruin, but getting raped is mental ruin.

Why do you think she raised the fruit of that rape to get back at men?

Reading isn't about being "fun" you dumb sack of shit, or at least "literature" is not. If you want to read shitty YA fiction and genre fiction novels, then go ahead, but it's not the same. Reading (literature) is about education, not "passing the time."

>asoiaf is a bag of steaming shit but pretending it isn't 'literature' is just desperate.
Desperate? What do you think this is exactly? I'm not even making any kind of claims as to how good it is, but if it's not literature (see the definition) then why should it be here? The writing might not even be bad (I've never actually read the series), but seeing as the general consensus has always been that it's not of "literature" status, I don't see why it's posted on here.

>not Western Canon
>not philosophical work
Like I said, I'm not even saying it's bad, just that I don't think it quite fits being posted here.

>entry-level
Jesus Christ kid, just because it was in your AP Lit class in high school, doesn't make it "entry-level."
