/lit/ - Literature

I haven't been on /lit/ in months. This place has really gone to shit.

I haven't been into anime since like 2012. I haven't been on /a/ in more than a decade. Does the autism really help them over there?

It's... uhhhh *profusely sweatting* uhm, well, you see, it's uhh, b-b-b-board culture! G-get it? F-funny DFW pictures! L-like the frogs, b-but less rip-off-your-skin-I-hate-it-here kinda stuff?

DOES ANYONE HAVE THE LINK TO THE VIDEO OF THE GUY SHOUTING DFW* OUT A CAR WINDOW? I CANT FUCKING FIND IT /lit/ PLEASE. HELP A BUDDY OUT.

SINCERELY,**
ANON

*DFW is an abbreviation of the famous author's name David Foster Wallace
**One of the overarching themes of David Foster Wallace's work was sincerity, here, anon is ironically using the complimentary close of a letter format in his 4chan posting.

Don't let anon gaslight you, it wasn't always like this. /pol/his/jesus/ hasn't always been here.

DFW posting was a /lit/centric thing. It was like frogposting but actually funny. It never spread to other boards. It was our own little in joke. Now everyone just posts frogs or gets accused of avatarfagging. Remember avatar fags? Remember tripfags and namefags? Remember how Slow /lit/ used to be? Remember how mods actually deleted non-book related threads? Remember how we would talk for 250+ posts about nora's fat ass and thunder words? Threads upon threads of platonic dialogues out of sheer spite. Actual discussion about labor theory of value. Catalog of ships jokes. The only things left that are truly /lit/ are the Science Fiction General and the Writing General, which, come to think of it, basically is all of /lit/. Everything else is filler.
