Why are all the best writers lefties?

What would you do if you bump into him?

John Green is the best author.

>A weak man is not as happy as that same man would be if he were strong. This reality is offensive to some people who would like the intellectual or spiritual to take precedence. It is instructive to see what happens to these very people as their squat strength goes up.

Who is this guy and why does /lit/ keep shitposting about him?

>As Simon pulled the sheets over himself he felt warm. It's the same kind of warm you feel when you meet that special girl with a beautiful soul and a kind heart. The kind of girl who you just instantly can make jokes with and listen to her problems with other men on your picnics. He knew that nothing could ever pull him from this happy, warm moment. As he began to dream about cleaning the house for her to show how much he cared, he felt a strange sensation coming from his groin. He lied there helplessly as his member began to release his love all over his sheets.

Who actually buys this?

I myself employ the John Green method where I read aloud or revise something in my head and if it could pass as something john green has or could potentially say or write then I scratch the whole thing and start over.

How does /lit/ revise its prose?

>he fell for the Arabs saved Aristotle meme
this was just pushed by John Green in his youtube ""history""" series to push the idea that the world can cooperate together and all races can live in peace hippy bullshit

>Now, however, the war was over, and Arthur was beginning to feel the same urges again, especially when his co-workers watched his wife sashay out of the Minister's office after feeding him lunch, all of their eyes (at least in his head) tracking her fine ass as it swayed hypnotically out of the room. Arthur imagined them taking her holes, one after the other, as she screamed and moaned and gasped in pleasure that he would never be able to give her.

>The party was like many another. Conversation began desultorily, gathered a swift but feeble energy, and trailed irrelevantly into other conversations; laughter was quick and nervous, and it burst like tiny explosives in a continuous but unrelated barrage all over the room; and the members of the party flowed casually from one place to another, as if quietly occupying shifting positions of strategy. A few of them, like spies, wandered through the house, led either by Edith or William, and commented upon the superiority of such older houses as this over the new, flimsier structures going up here and there on the outskirts of town.

How did he become a rich alpha by writing about all of his high school beta fantasies?

Can you write better than this man?

I usually wait until there's already a couple of threads about him, but what the fuck. You know the drill, /lit/. Gimme some of your best memes. Anything about John Green should go in this thread. Shitposts are welcome. Non-shitposts are also welcome. You don't even have to hate the guy. Just come on in and make yourself a nice cup of coffee. There's creamer and sugar somewhere around here as well, if you're not fine with having it black. I think Janice left some donuts somewhere, too. Might be in one of the drawers. Yeah, I know, that's a dumb place to put a box of donuts, but you don't know Janice. She's fucking crazy.

Let the pedophilia accusations and fake quotes begin.

Greetings, everyone. I am new. (One second – let me get this cancerous boy out of the way.) My name is John, but you can call me the Cuck of Indiana. (I’m laughing aloud.) As you can plainly see, I care a great deal about equality. That is why I have come here. To meet similarly egalitarian people, such as myself.

I am 38 – thoughtful for my age, however! – and I delight in picturing myself as the Crest Complete tube of my girlfriend. (I fall in love like others fall asleep. Please approach this subject maturely.) It is my favorite fantasy, as it adequately displays cuckold manners of behavior such as I possess.

She behaves without fidelity – of course – but I wish to meet more individuals of her and my kind. As the saying goes, “the more in the bowl, the merrier the husband.”

Ah, it is to laugh. Anyway, I hope to make many friends here, so please comment freely.

She is a hurricane!

That is simply one of many examples of my cuckold actions. Ha, ha. Fare thee well. I wish you much love and tears.

Yours,

The Cuck of Indiana.

>What kind of person is it who clamours for this meaningless desideratum, equality? Certainly not the beautiful person, because to him equality, if it could be achieved, would result in bringing him down to the common level. Neither can it be the person specially gifted in any of the arts and sciences; for, again, equality, if it could by some miracle be wrought, would amount to wiping out the advantage of such special gifts. The self-reliant, the strong, the skilful, the able and the desirable, in all walks of life, are never stirred by this cry for equality; because they look down from their eminence, and cannot therefore conceive that levelling could possibly prove an advantage.

>It must therefore be the undesirable, the unskilful, the incompetent, the ugly, the ungifted, in all walks of life, the incapable of all classes, who want equality. And they want it because, looking up from their position of chafing mediocrity and ungainliness, and beholding their more gifted brethren, they realise that equality must redound to their benefit. A moment's reflection would tell them that it is an impossible ideal; their mortified vanity, however, is stronger than their reason, and urges them to believe in it, ridiculous as it may be.

What did he mean by this?

>"Like the differences between races are only skin deep. Obviously Europeans have longer noses, and Africans have longer... you know, haha..."
