Yes, poor areas are refereed to as the hood. Do they call rich black neighborhoods "the hood"


Is your mind blown yet?
Nope. tfw you know black grammar makes them sounds stupid , but speak its natively

>That feel when all of the social recluses in the entire history of mankind has had these feels before...but because they had no internet, they had to bear these feels all alone in their in their room, sitting in their big red cushioned chair and reading hundreds from an oak bookshelf while smoking a fine tobacco pipe. Years from now, archived 4chan posts will let historians of the future know about our feels. But all those pre-internet feels will never be known. Ever.

My captcha was "ventcge ascendens". Even the spirits of the social recluses of the past guided me as muses in making this post happen.

if you were >>2318262 then you're partly excused. not that you should care. seriously. i would argue that the youth of today has been saying the same shit for centuries. finish school and get a real job. worry about food on your plate or that your children are taken care of. and you'll know why older folks will roll their eyes when they hear people talk of intellectualism and anti intellectualism. it's some serious masterbatory bullshit.

cool story, bro. there are more ways to better oneself than a person can experience in a lifetime. i love to read too, and that's why /lit/ is my stomping grounds, but at least i don't act like it's some saving grace from idiocy.

Your favorite contemporary writer will die in your lifetime.

Hello /lit/. I want you to recommend me a good book which will help me to get on a journey. A journey that shows me that there is still passion hidden in this world, a journey that shows me that people can leave the circle of indifference in todays society.

I just want to feel again since there is nothing more left from me which I would call a numb psycho. Everything I feel gets blocked from an outer shield which makes life more bearable but also worthless. When I feel love or anger only numb pieces reach my consciousness. I want to read something that is able to break through this shield of numbness.

Thank you guys.
