Why does /lit/ always let this one guy--and I know it's just one guy, he uses the same charts and graphs in every thread--successfully derail every single thread he shows up in? Jesus Christ, this board bites on bait worse than /co/.

Can we please ban "books for this feel" threads? They're just stealth /r9k/ threads.

Man I am actually fairly right-wing/reactionary, but I look at posters like this and all I can do is despair. We're never gonna get anywhere if this is the state of the forces arrayed against Modernity.

It depresses me a little that this is the only lasting meme we've managed to create in the last year or two.

>number two is real

Is this what people like to read? Who could read that without putting the book down in disgust?

Are all Christfags this retarded?

This is the biggest fucking example of non sequitur I've seen, congratulations.

>this whole thread

I've been having this idea for a novel and I wrote a sketch of the first few chapters.
It's really short so if you have the time, comments are welcome
NOTE: I know the language is not great, but this is only an early draft.

Okay, I don't even know what is going on at this point. Peter and Martin have genuinely agreed to quit TAR, I guess they were as fed up with the bullshit that as going on as I was. Mommy and Daddy are friends again. I'll quit acting like a er... Prole now.

Naturally I don't make policy, so I can't say beyond the shadow of a doubt this is going to happen once I've talked with the other guys. But what I want is for TAR to go back to being the casual, fun marketplace for all of /lit/'s writers to take part in. No more talk of relentless "expansion" to the detriment of everyone else, no more talk of extreme quality control that filters 50% of submissions. No, What I am hoping that we can accomplish is a return to the enjoyable shitstorm that is /lit/. Fuck editor drama, this should be about authors

Thank you all, now I for one am going straight to bed.

OP, if they're anything like the Torchwood one I'm reading right now, just don't. It's... just don't.

Of course I do. Why wouldn't it be? Does it insult you on some personal level? Does it hamper your freedom in any way?

Holy shit, /lit/, this is worse than the whole gay marriage thing.
Gay? Meh, not my business, it's your life.
Read teen novels? Rot in hell.
