I been reading Christopher Marlowe which turned out to be short plays and yesterday i ordered Flannery O'Connor because people here told me to do so. Apparently that's all short stories. When will i find a t h i c c book again.
>why don't you look up page numbers / research the texts beforehand
NO.

>>15971273
It's really small for a man

>>15971273
I don't see much wrong with it

>>15971306
How do you take a picture like that?
The phone must be really close to your head and you have to press a boton and hold it with the same hand. I don't get it.

>>15971306
>>15971314
fuck off, can we not have a thread like that one?

>>15971260
This is the same sniveling sort of asswipe that would watch a season of his favorite show in one sitting.

>>15971322
You mean a season of Bojack horseman that is like 2 hours of a season of some drama that is like 10 hours?

>>15971369
Oh look, a bugman jumping to the defense of his co-tribal. How cute.

>>15971395
Just asking a question. Not defending anything but i do watch full seasons of friends in a day so you are prolly right.

>>15971314
Are you taking pictures with a laptop? Why couldn't you press a button with the same hand that you hold your phone? Try it.

>>15971408
What kind of phone allows you to do it right and how deformed your hand must be?

>>15971306
Did you not wipe your ass the last time you shat? Fucking disgusting. You should be clean enough to have no skid marks in your undies when you take them off.

>>15971273
It’s not black

>>15971528
How dare you oppress this man with your outdated White European standards.

>>15971260
well Dune IS a pretty dull read to be honest.

>>15971306
>I don't see much wrong with it

>>15971596
It puts me right to sleep. So do the film adaptations. I can't imagine ever being able to finish that story. I simply won't watch the new movie, 'cause fuck hollywood. I'm destined to never get in on this part of culture.

>>15971586
Skidmark apologism and unfunny jokes? You must be a hit with the ladies

>>15971586
My bad, that was some damn upsetting moral objectivism I engaged in. Everything is relative, after all.

>>15971598

>>15971675

catching up on all the books you skipped for high school reading?

These mongrels of the mind can't handle anything beyond 'young adult' fiction.

>>15973477
Don't larp like you read even half of those classics. You forgett where you are.

>>15971260
>taking pictures of it to post on media instead of reading it
Do american really?

The only required reading for my classes were F451, To Kill a Mockingbird, Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, The Great Gatsby, Of Mice and Men, Oedipus Rex, Antigone, The Catcher in the Rye, and I know I’m missing a few more.

>>15971260

>>15971260

schools don't require you to read that many books. threre were like 2 books I had to read for school.

>>15973514
and why would he need to? They're simple and the reading level is extremely low for them. No one is even slightly impressed you have read those literal beginner books.

>>15973659

damn that sucks, most people here hate reading because we had to read so many books during our schooling but i guess that is better than the alternative

>>15973773
Public schools in germany are becoming more and more of a meme. The vasall staat transforms ito its master.

>>15971260
Is dune a good place to start if i want to read sci-fi?
Brainlet here

>>15973959
no it's very long, dense, filled with weird names
start with Hitchhiker's Guide or something

>>15973991
Thanks
I've also wanted to get hitchhikers guide or neuromancer

Something really off putting about that edition. It looks too small

>>15974001
Hitchhiker's Guide is one of my favorites, and i'm actually reading Neuromancer right now - that wouldn't be a bad place to start either if you already have some cyberpunk background
otherwise you might feel a little lost, but i'm loving it
