Are there any books about a white man witnessing his white daughter marrying and breeding with a non-white man, to the upmost horror and existential dread of the father?

>"Is that book as good as they say Anon? I thought it would be boring like every other old book people talk about."

How do we alleviate the fears of these people who hear how "difficult" certain books are so they avoid the medium altogether?

you are clearly the type of individual who cares more about owning a book than reading it. a pure decorated hardcover collection is fucking dumb.

Why explains the longevity of certain memes? Pepe and Wojak have been endearing elements of 4chan culture for *years* now. However, Pepe's already a dead meme among the public.

My theory is that the emotional sincerity that often accompany Pepe/Wojak memes increases their longevity. On twitter, facebook, and other public social media memes that have any kind of emotional connotation just don't exist because you aren't anonymous, and normal people usually don't like sharing their feelings to everybody else online.

I'm just writing what comes to mind here, but perhaps the idea of emotional sincerity with wojak/pepe memes is more complex. On 4chan, those memes are usually accompanied by a greentext of some sort, and the archetype we establish of them is some raw, painful/awkward/cringeworthy/funny-in-a-sad-way experience. The authenticity of these experiences keeps the memes themselves fresh, as opposed to just pure, dumb memespouting with other memes like Spiderman or "Yo, dawg".

Additionally, the longevity of baneposting interests me. It seems like the community surrounding it survives off of some self-awareness of how tired the meme is, and the fact they're squeezing every last drop from plane scene that they possibly can. The mere fact they're still around baneposting is, in a way, what justifies their zeal (I know on dubschan they're drawing the entire plane scene frame by frame).
