the best possible response

Wright looks exactly like he writes.

>One of the things that made me suffer no regret when I was called away from the cramped intellectual jail of atheism into a wider and more wonderful world, was my growing conviction that my fellow atheists were shallow, men without insight into real human nature.

It makes me so happy that all those fedora images actually have basis in reality because there is a real person out there that actually talks like this. And it's even better that he does it while somehow NOT being an atheist.

John C. Wright looks exactly like the garbage tier reader who would read his crap

>>11219964
That's really an off day for him, there is no purple prose, no convoluted insults

>>11220007

>>11219989

As a convert from atheism to Christianity this one resonates with me. One of the best reasons to not be an atheist is atheists.

>>11231097
Truly there is not a more obnoxious entity on the planet than an atheist.

>>11229305
your diary desu

>>11222504
he has foreseen the death of the canon

>>11231388
But could he foresee THIS? *punches you in the face*

>>11231540
i slip your first haymaker with ease because you're overzealous and looking for the KO, which was clearly evident based on your body language and mewvement, then I immediately counter with a left uppercut right elbow hook to the nose combo, step in for a hard judo toss but instead of tossing, I do a quick capoeira handstand and donkey kick you square in the nuts, now you're reeling in pain and I turn to face the other guy, but he's not even ready to go because he's worried about what I'm capable of doing because he just saw me kick you in the nuts, he goes to square up but I throw a lightning fast straight fingered jab to the eyes, causing him to immediately recoil and cover his face with both hands, which, you guessed it, leaves his groin unprotected, and of course I capitalize, quickly sliding to my knees like I just scored a goal in soccer, and ripping a Mendes-esque right uppercut square to the bottom of the scrotum, crushing both testes between my hard uppercut and the pelvic bone, at which point I turn around and quickly crack you with an oblique kick but it lands directly on the front of your throat and now you can't breathe, so I ensure that my rear foot is placed directly on top of your testicles, but the second guy is beginning to get up, covering his balls and his eyes, so I wind up and put all of my full body torque into a tornado kick, but just as the kick is about to land on the side of his temple and likely kill him, I land gently on my feet, tip m'fedora and walk out of the bar, everyone staring silently with their mouths wide, and just before I walk out into the street I turn and stare directly into your eyes and say fuck u goof, I whip out my phone and I've already got fight pass loaded up, I click on recent additions to fight pass and quickly locate a spicy banger, and it buffers as I step out into the street

If I had a girl, and he was alive, I'd let him eff her.

>>11218867

Why hadnt anyone posted him yet?

>>11228635
Cant say my beard will ever be as thick as that, but wouldnt it be annoying to have hair almost up to your fucking eyes?

>>11231963
You just like him for his gun.

/fitlit/ was a better /lit/.

I've noticed that every great, consequential writer is interesting to look at. Not necessarily handsome, but their appearance leaves an impression on you. I've never really seen a picture of a great writer that was totally plain and boring.

>>11231566
lmfao the fact that no one has reacted to this yet shows what a pleb board this is.

>>11234629
This includes Stephen King BTW.

Stephen King confirmed a great, consequential writer. /lit/ absolutely BTFO.

He lived a very radical lifestyle for his time. He needed to be able to defend himself, or thought he did. Became part his persona. People say he was a good shootist, which is interesting considering his wife.

>>11234752
>calling a long post joke "bait"
You're particularly retarded.

>>11235569
Sorry nobody fell for your shitty bait.

Solo was pretty good.

>>11236295
this should ne cringe but he actually looks dope

>>11235678
It wasn't mine but it's not bait just a well written joke that I enjoyed.

>>11236427
Don't worry, I'm shitposting here but I actually enjoyed it myself and have already reposted it multiple times on other boards.

>>11225217
I know that he's 90% beard but I wouldn't know that was supposed to be him without the text.

>>11236457
There's another picture where she's wearing more rings so she's distinctly recognizable as him but I like that one because she's wearing less clothes and thus is sexier.

>>11236469

Well I was planning to read his books because middle-aged Japanese women tickle my fancy, which one should I go for first if I want some of that? I think I have The Windup Bird Chronicle already, will that one work?

and young boys, and cats, and shadows, and classical music, and potato salad

>>11229251
>dreadful suffocating feeling
which you enjoy. You want this feeling and enjoy it.

>>11236295
I read some of Peterson's work. Wasn't all that impressed. His oratory is ways better.

>Mr Jim Hines takes exception to the grave insult done to all fans of LEGEND OF KORRA by asserting, first, that I am the only one dismayed and dissatisfied by the bad writing, cheap ending, lame out-of-nowhere romance between two female characters (neither of who previously was homosexual) being shoehorned into the last scene in the closing episode of LEGEND OF KORRA for reasons of Political Correctness; and second, that the reason for my dismay was not my artistic judgment, love of the show, and a normal human sense of decency, but the pure evil of my character.

>As for the first point, it is the informal logical fallacy known as ad populum. He is asserting that the minority opinion is always wrong. And it is a false assertion in any case: Their great claim to moral superiority of the pro-irrationality faction Mr Hines represents rests on their inferiority in numbers or in power or both, that is, on their underdog status. If they are in the majority, that claim evaporates.

>As for the second point, it is ad hominem. Evidently Mr Hines imagines himself to be The Shadow, who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men.

>Sadly for him, the evil is not where he detects it. I am not the bigot here. The bigot is the one who denounces everyone whose opinion differs from his own as bigots.

>He makes much ado of the fact that the scene is so short and so trivial, and therefore it shows a lack of judgment on my part to take offense, or a lack of moral uprightness. But, by the same logic, if the scene is trivial, then those who celebrate it (including, by their own testament, the writers themselves) are celebrating a triviality. The scene cannot be a landmark only for those who praise it, but at the same time be a triviality too small to notice only for those who dispraise it.

>>11225111
I don't really like Vox Day but he does have Stross's number on being a numale.

>>11219915
It all makes more sense when you realize he's LARPing as G.K. Chesterton.

Let me get this straight. The enormously fat fedoralord also cares way too much about children's cartoons? This guy just gets better and better.
