That whole novel made me so hard, all I could think about was catniss sucking my cock for nourishment because the hunger games left her starving for a fuck and some nutrients, I would just lead her out into a safe place in the woods and make her crawl on her hands and knees completely stripped to her little wet panties, and take her by that fat braid on the back of her head and force my cock deep into her wet throat and fill her starving coal miner's daughter belly with my hot salty custard until she was strong enough to go out and win THE 74TH ANNUAL HUNGER GAEMS

Which should I read first: The Trial or Amerika?

I'm not exactly new to Kafka—I've read most of his stories—but I've never attempted these two. Which is better? I'm in the mood for something....Kafkaesque.

I guess the idea I was trying to get across is that if you travel too far along this liberal line of thinking, you become a hypocrite as your sense of self-righteous self entitlement grows overweening

such beautiful blossoming cancer polyps in this thread

>mfw mysticism and other delusions are now /lit/'s favorite "philosophy".

>lol

mfw this is a great book and this whole thread is DandE samefagging because he wants the barrage of shit he forced himself to read for the sake of it being "literature" to feel validated.

Don't know the context for this picture, but I think it would be quite funny if he was a well versed post-structuralist thinker; what with the hairstyle, he needs some fancy thinking to match.

You saying that he was a conspiracy theorist makes this picture ten times better, though....

The whale in this picture is a staunch Lacanian, famous for his tracts on the sudden proliferation of Long John Silver franchises in the midwestern states in relation to the drop in birth rates of Chinese hermaphrodites to wealthy couples in Singapore

I've got something involving an ungainly Northern lad, a sort of sexual bildungsroman. He doesn't get any nookie so he ends up becoming a graphic's designer, you know the sort, bald and bespectacled. On contract with an erotic ware's company, he designs this ultimate dildo that is ridiculously pleasurable and puts it into production off his own back. Along the way, he develops a sort of magical connection to the orgasms he is indirectly responsible for, think that sort of weird Being John Malkovitch pespectivism. This instigates several weird episodes that plumb the sexual, political and consumerist mores all this narrative sort of begs, all the while him developing into a sort of alpha guy that recognizes himself as this sort of vicarious male proustitute. Think anything shallow and contempory along Palahniuck lines.

>mfw this might be quite fun to write some day.

>Because there are many ways to be intelligent, there are also many conceptualizations of intelligence. The most influential approach, and the one that has generated the most systematic research, is based on psychometric testing. This tradition has produced a substantial body of knowledge, though many questions remain unanswered. We know much less about the forms of intelligence that tests do not easily assess: wisdom, creativity, practical knowledge, social skill, and the like.
This is quoted from the second resource. Psychometric data was what was required from OP. All these forms of other intelligence mentioned are useful and characterizing for people. Note the heavy emphasis also on environmental factors in the study.

>let me express a heartfelt fuck-you for bitching about proof instead of looking it up yourself
As an elite, educated and enlightened member of this board talking to an obviously intellectually blinkered, bigoted and brainless, it's my responsibility to educate you in good academic practice. Besides, the onus has never been on me to support your arguments. What you have provided is one specious piece of research in a small, unvariegated sample, along with quite a nice, balanced report on the difficulties of testing intelligence that you should read yourself.

What I can't help escaping from, is OP's dp pic that is frankly disgusting stuff and the '>pure biogical abilities and disabilities' he desires to be enlightened, all suggesting that we have a closet white supremacist looking for grounds to suggest his racial superiority. All very unsavoury.
