>mfw books are better friends than real people

All they want to do is be read and enjoyed and learned from and they will never leave you or betray you or hurt you

>>13580196
Why not both?

>>13580220
Why not reading your friends and learning their formal and informal systems?

>>13580196
>not reading books about people who had fun with friends

>>13580226
>reading your friends and learning their formal and informal systems

Exactly why I don’t have friends

>listen to audiobooks while working
checkmate

Time enjoyed is not time wasted. Now stop being a worryfag and just live your life. You only get one you know. Also, you posting this thread constantly is gay as fuck.

the two poles cannot be approached in one time, it will annihilate one another

>I'm glad I spent all that time having fun with friends instead of contributing to the betterment of society and/or producing an intellectual oeuvre
You are why people suffer.

This is actually worse than op. Worse as in your statement is absolutely cringe

>>13580798
No it isn't, man. Mindlessly being with friends nonstop doesn't make for a good life well lived.

Do something while you're alone that matters. :3

>>13580798
>having values is cringe
Sad!

Me

A righteous farmer is far more important to me than a malicious, base entrepreneur who "betters" society with wealth. (Not that they're mutually exclusive.)

>>13580196
How is "having fun with friends" going to help one come to terms with his or her mortality* and impermanence, dumb faggot?

>>13580196
No matter what you do, you will regret it. Anyway, why should the opinion of you on your deathbed matter more than that of you at any other point in your life? Maybe dying people aren't actually that good at judging what they should have done differently.

>malicious, base entrepreneur who "betters" society with wealth
I'm talking about betterment, not "betterment."

I feel bad about myself bros

crush up addy and put it in your anus

This except unironically. Knowledge is eternal

all magnets are bipolar you retard

>>13580196
Imagine having friends who don't read books.

>>13582289
Magnetism is only an emergent phenomenon arising from the alignment of spins

>>13580196
This, but unironically. Books are glorious!

>>13580196
You and me both, brother.

Now shut up, I've been trying to finish Anti-Oedipus for the last three weeks.

>>13580196
Time with friends is worthless now. Books aren't.

I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room
Safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock
I am an island

>>13584230
>People missing the point of the song that much.
What a rube.
>A rock feels no pain.
A rock feels nothing.
>And an island never cries.
An island is perpetually alone. It has nobody to cry to.

>/lit/ is a slow board! Please take the time to read what others have written, and try to make thoughtful, well-written posts of your own.
Wow, what a thoughtful, well-written response to my post. It definitely doesn't prove that you don't have an argument and as a result resort to ad hominem attacks.

>>13580859
now what?

>>13580196
friends are worthless though. all of them at most can speak about like 12 topics at most dealing with normie subjects like mediocre relationships, pop culture, drinking and ....?

>>13580196
Unironically wish I had spent less time with friends and more reading books

>>13580196
