That's all I want from life, if only I had the money

I think my life is over. I should just get it over with and just become and tranny and go beat women's records or something so that autists on the internet can call me "based"

For legal reasons I feel like I should clarify that this post was a joke and I can't actually relate to Holden Caufield. I don't even have a younger sister.

The billboard anon posted was a retarded example, especially since it was an advertisement and not art, but I think it's safe to say that art is dead, or maybe just close to death. It has been deconstructed so much as this point that the pieces can never be put back together. So much of modern art is just artists trying to one-up their predecessors by being more "avant-garde" and "subversive" and "deconstructionist" when it's not trying to appeal to the popular masses. It either has to appeal to the pretentious pseuds or be dumbed down enough for the sheeps, and because of that pandering there's no art that checks the boxes of being both talented and passionate, not to mention the corruption of individuality in the west where people think "self-expression" means being an attention-seeking degenerate rather than an expression of one's self-prescribed values and experiences.

how do I learn to write more memorable and snappy dialogue?
I don't wanna become some second rate pulp writer but I want to be able to write some stuff that's as punchy as sailor slang or a quentin tarantino movie
I'm already halfway good at it but I have no clue how I can learn it better
