/lit/ - Literature

pic related, it's what she looked like, only she was prettier and a little less slutty

you're a madman

a MADMAN

You did the right thing.
Personally I didn't make it past page one of Catcher In The Rye.

>>1627969
You poor poor man;.

Don't let his troll work.

Please just sage and report!

We might get him banned.

Do it like a bruva

Anonymous is the cancer killing Brownbear's /lit/!

>>1627969
Do you know who the girl in this picture is. I keep seeing her and I am in love. Complete and total love.

>>1627980
hey mog

>>1627976
I'm with you. Thread saged and reported.

but what does this mean
>snort a lie of a dead romanian child's ashes in the bathroom
i'm romania and dont speek english veree good

>>1627997
>>1627997
should be 'line'

>>1627997
These tripfags only ever read the same books assigned to them by their English teachers, or maybe they go the extra mile and brush up on philosophy by reading Wikipedia. You can't expect them to have any creativity or cleverness about them.

Interesting thread.

I'm actually starting to appreciate these stories now. You should try and get published. You could be the next J.D.Salibger.

If I ever get into Catcher in the Rye, I'll make sure to do it at a bar with a kindle.

Brownbear, I'm beggining to feel concerned about you. It started out where, in all your stories you were simply quite pompous. But, with each sequential story you seem to be more 'bothered' by the events, true or not. Is it really that you're becoming more alienated and perhaps experiencing depersonalization?

10/10 as always though. Excellent read.

Why is it that every time that I'm on /lit/ the first thing I see is a thread where brownbear claims to have been reading at a public place and when a girl hits on him he instantly turns them down?

>>1628006
so, thahts what you imperialists scum do with our children? snort them in the bathroom? you make me seek.

>>1627992
Hey Fab

Id' Fa your B, if you know what i mean.

How are any of you old enough to sit at a bar but you haven't read The Catcher in the Rye?

Anyway, I loved it when I was 16. Upon rereading I wasn't as impressed.

:(
i think i'm just becoming intrinsically linked with /lit/
i feel like a Zimbado guard, no longer sure of who i am, instead i'm linked with a common goal i'm not sure about, i was an individual, now i'm just a member of a hate mob which no longer knows why it's there.

help me? ;_;

>>1628028
well aren't you just the blooming intellectual

>>1628020
What?

>>1627992
hello fabuu

>>1628033
You know, this is going to sound like a silly recommendation, but Existential texts really helped my through that phase. Sure, Nausea worsened my mental state, but Kierkegaard's 'The Present Age' really got me thinking.

Try to stay on topic, Fab.

I'm not up to that challenge

maybe i can try to balance a spoon on my nose or something

i haven't read any philosophical texts, is this one a difficult read for a person new to it?
or is it more 'entry-level'
i will pick it up if it's the latter, thank you

>>1628066
Keirkegaard can be really out there at times. Perhaps you should start with some Existential Fiction. Kafka, Sartre, Dosoevsky, and I think Kierkegaard and a few others have some stories. From there, once you think you have a grasp on 'Existence', just read the shortest works you can find with a more treatise spin, and work your way up to 'Being and Nothingness' length-d texts.

Actually, The Count of Monte Cristo follows the same ideals, but doesn't pay any lip service to the philosophy.

brownbear, have you ever actually had a girl approach you while reading? I genuinely want to know, bullshit aside. If you have, I'm happy for you, even if you told her / them to go away because their hair parting was on the wrong side.

>>1628089
he's around here somewhere

I miss tybrax ;_;

>>1628091
I haven't seen him today.

Tom Harper was a fucking faggot, who never contributed shit to this site. Good riddance.

what's wrong with what she said?

>>1628125
>>1628125
have you read Catcher in the Rye?

>>1628125
Nothing. It's called trolling. Or maybe retardation. I don't know if Brownbore understands what an opinion is.

>>1628143
>>1628143
i'm sorry but please refrain from trolling in this thread
either contribute or do not post please and thank you
xoxoxoxo

>>1628061
Every time I see that I just straight up think 'Edward Norton'

These are pretty sad threads brownbear, I'm sorry you actually take the time to write all that crap

>>1628155
HAHA same.

Yeah Brownbear, you should compile these stories. I like them.

Does /lit/ even have any moderators? This thread has nothing to do with literature and the fuckhead of an OP ough to be banned. He's also boring and stupid.

>>1628228

Fuck this place forever.

Brownbear,

I KNOW YOU POST ON /V/ TOO

Why do you need so many trips?

>>1628270
You are now aware this is mostly samefagging.

Yes, the guy has no life.

>>1628274
>>1628274
jealous of my life
why would i samefag with a sage?
you retard

>>1628273
>>1628273
i post on a lot of boards, be happy that you have me here as Brownbear

>>1628282
The question is, why can't the Brownbear post pics unless he is indeed the White Whale /fit/ has been hunting for?

MAYBE SOMEDAY BROWNBEAR WILL GET A BOYFRIEND OR A JOB.

BUT I DON'T THINK SO.

Don't know about the rest of you, but these threads and the discussions which ensue are an entertaining feature on an otherwise stagnant board.

>>1628320
Nice dropped trip, BB.

>>1628320
It's a board about books, what do you expect. We're not running at a pace comparable to /b/.
Anyways you're a faggot so go die in a fire.

>>1628335
Implying I was talking about the speed of the board. Come on, the same books gets discussed over and over and over again on here, there's a thread about an ereader once every couple of days and a homework help thread every day.
At least threads like these generate interest if nothing else.

>>1627965
I love you and everything you stand for

>>1628348
Go cry over some doughnuts oBesebear.

>>1628299
>>1628299
i do post pics on /fit/
however that board is for health and fitness and so everyone can be mirin my abs.
this board is for literature
so i do not post pictuese of myself

>>1628349
>>1628349
thank you

>>1628389
Well you still haven't posted an pics in the /fit/ thread, whale boy.

>>1627965
why arent all you faggots banned yet is the mod such a douche he likes you or are one of you faggots mods?? i mean seriously do you guys ever even leave /lit/?

>>1628401
>>1628401
why would i post pics so you guys can save them and repost them?
ask any of the other trips if i'm fat
post a pic of yourself topless bro
wanna see dat fat

>>1628409
>wanna see dat fat
Go look in the mirror, blubber boy. I've done more squatz and oatz than you've had hot dinners, and that is saying something. The thread in /fit/ is still alive, if you want to prove me wrong.

>>1628409
>>1628433
forever alone, so much faggotry i think ill never come to 4chan again

>>1628433
just look at that obese fuck

>>1628433
>>1628433
lololol of course bro
try SS instead of just squatz and oatz faggot, help you lose the blubber and gain some muscle?

i wish this thread wasnt

>>1628456
Haha, SS. I do interval training, and have been for a few years now. Get with it. Now I don't believe you go on fit at all. What shitty advice.

>>1628486
>>1628486
>saging because you didn't want me to see the reply
interval training?
are you a runner or just a fat ass?

and if i was to give advice to anyone who wanted to lose weight and gain muscle
eat less, move more, SS.
come back in 3 months.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaanyways
catcher in the rye?

>>1628599
So I read it when I was like 15, do you think I should go and have another read of it BB? Will I get anything out of it now that I'm the overman?

>>1628523
>saging because this is not fit
The only people who do ss primarily are runners, for marathons and things. SS will get rid of as much muscle as fat, interval training will actually build muscle, which will also increase your calorie consumption. So bad bad advice. Not to say there isn't a place for ss, but it's not something to focus on. Don't believe me? Go ask fit, though they'll be pissed you couldn't be bothered to read the sticky.
