I have this mug. I am drinking from this mug right now.
I'm sitting in a room, lit only by my computer screen. I just sit here browsing /lit/; this is a daily occurrence for me.

This is because everyone hates me, the only time people talk to me is to make fun of me or laugh at me. People have just hit me before for no reason, I don't even talk to them and they think it's funny to hurt me.

I tried talking to some other people who like books and they just ignore me, I thought that I could at least have a conversation with someone about some literature and maybe make a friend. Even here people ignore me all the time and on the tinychat.

Why do you do this? I'm so lonely. Do you people have no empathy?

yeah the tinychat people are kind of insensitive faggots sometimes. also people say that the tripfags are fucking each other. no its the tinychat community that is.

Go back to /r9k/.
Actually, don't. /r9k/ is a cesspool of negativity and robots are some of the most amoral, selfish, people in existence.

Anyway, "We are what we pretend to be".
If you carry yourself like an asshole who hates everybody or go around bitching about how pathetic your life is, of course nobody is going to want to be your friend. That shit is just irritating and brings everybody down.
Anyway, are you still in high school or what, because I can't think of a single situation in the adult world where somebody would go out of there way to injure you for no conceivable reason.

Well, not being able to see you should make a positive difference, I'd say. I don't know why people ignore you here.

So, what's the latest book you've read, and tell me in max. 20 words what you liked about it?

My latest book "The End of Mr.Y" by Scarlett Thomas.
I really was pleased by the interesting use of the book-within-a-book technique.

I tripped for a pretty long time.
After awhile I realized it was just making yourself a target for no reason. You could post the most intelligent thing and all you'd get is "Fuck tripfags".
It's fun at first, but then it just kills conversation.

Ok, nice. How do you select, if you select at all, which book you buy?

Me, I prefer reading English language books but I'm very limited in my choice in regular bookstores. My technique is to visit shops where they sell second-hand clothes. They get clothes from the UK, for example, in huge bags, together with English language books. Each time it is a surprise what will be available, so I just pick what looks interesting, and the price is good, because they cost $1 on average.

I'd be willing to chalk this up to Internet reflexes. It's more likely people will stop hating you if you can stop hating them first. Or at least resisting snarking them until you've built up a bit of a rapport.

>> No.1406273

No, don't fake it.Don't be an asshole.
Just don't go around spouting misery and negativity and try to e friendly to people. The only difference between regular people and somebody like you or OP is regular people know when to keep their private insecurities and neurosis..well, private.

Well, that sucks. The problem with schools is that it's not easy to avoid the assholes, since they share the same building or classroom as you. But after school things will get better. The assholes will go to asshole-land, and you will find your own area where you will feel comfortable, with people you like and who will like you.

It was the same from me. When I was finished with school I never looked back, and I've never seen or met any asshole since then.

no i just thought that 'ugly ppl dont deserved to b loved' thing was contained to /fa/ because of their obsession with things like that. like a amateur model can post on there & /fa/ find something wrong with their face. & also anyone that says things like oucasts are gay/ugly/failures etc is probably insecure themselves.

OP: I like your mug, 'tis very nice. As for topic - not sure if troll thread or not, but I'll give it a go. First things first, with regards /lit - dude, it's still 4chan, might not be as idiotic as the peeps who troll /b/ but still, you're gonna get some 'extreme' reactions / ignored. If you want to interact with people more, go join a messageboard / forum / community etc, etc, that caters more to the things you're into.

As for 'society' / the world offline. Who gives a shit if people don't talk to you? They probably haven't got anything interesting to say anyway. As for people hitting you - either hit 'em back, or tell someone. If that someone doesn't do aything to prevent it, contact the authorities (if it's serious).

No, it's not. When it comes to people who just generally act like twats for no apparent reason, and who you can't seen to reason with, realistically there's two options:

1: Fight 'em - No offensive to the OP, but he hardly seems the type to hit back.

2: If you haven't got the testicular fortitude to fight your own fights, then might as well let someone do it for you.

You are attention-seeking. Your tripping isn't perceived as you being responsible for your posts, but you trying to get attention or trying to be recognised as a popular tripfag. These fucking tripfag circlejerks and 'best tripfag competitions' are just encouraging you fucks to feel like some celebrities or something. Cast off your trip and post without. See, then, that your posts are judged not by what is said but who said it. If you are Anonymous, only what you said counts. That is so much better. I used to be a tripfag until I realised that it is better to contribute to a community purely so that you have contributed, not so that you are remembered as having contributed. That is true contribution. Otherwise, join a BB forum with fucking rep stars and shit where they see posts as more important if the person who said it has green reps and lots of posts. Just give, man. Just give and don't expect recognition or love. That is what being Anonymous is about.
