Unironically books can't be scary. Horror films can be unsettling and scary because of the primal horror that visual media can convey, but words on a page will never be actually scary. It's a meme genre in the literary world.

college is for banging cunny, getting shitfaced every night, and graduating with a piece of paper that allows you to get a decent paying job. never forget that and you'll have a good college experience.

I would prefer not to.

ive come to the conclusion that books cannot be scary. I have read many of the horror classics, 20th century horror, and contemporary horror novels in search of something genuinely frightening and have been disappointed every time. if you want to feel fear then watch a scary movie. they are more visceral and appeal to a more primal part of your psyche. although after awhile you will find that even horror movies aren't scary. once you figure out the formula that horror movie directors use you will be able to predict every scare. I can watch a movie I've never seen before and tell you the exact moment a jump scare will happen down to the fucking nanosecond. and all those "slowburn atmospheric" horror films that are allegedly superior to mainstream movies are simply not scary. anyways the point is: stop reading genre fiction.

"school shooter"? Is that the best thing niggers can come up with to insult their white masters? You do know that nothing a nigger says can ever offend a white man, right? I am bulletproof to nigger insults.
