Real life vs /lit/ logic thread.

I'll start:

Real life: Somebody just told me their idea. I will offer support and maybe some advice.

/lit/: Somebody just told me their idea. I need to ruin that idea for them.

>> No.1483573

And that's why I spend so much time on /lit/.

>> No.1483576

Real life: Fantasy is a good genre and some great works of fiction can come from it.

/lit/: Only 300 pound neckbeards can enjoy anything that involves magic. Also if you like fantasy you're STUPID.

Much like Ashton Kutcher, Ryan Reynolds, Jason Biggs and James Van Der Beek, Stephen Baldwin has been denied by Hollywood an authentic chance at being an actor, instead being torn to shreds over the years by the system by being shoehorned into a series of oppressive roles that prevent these actors from displaying their true virtue as men and consummate actors.

Real life: Kindles are a handy item for travel, and offer a cheaper in the long run alternative to those that want to buy newer books.

/lit/: If you buy a kindle, you're a hipster/corporate tool

>> No.1483604

Real life: DFW's best work was his insightful non-fiction and concise short stories.

/lit/ logic: Well obviously his best work was that 1200 page novel with all the footnotes. 1200 pages, footnotes - got to be some deep shit in there if I can be bothered to read through all the waffle.

Only fat weaboos like fantasy irl. Its crap literature (i wouldn't call it literature at all but c'mon...). No one who knows about great authors or take literature a little bit serious would say this irl. Trust me, i know plenty of people who like books.
