Stop making low-effort threads.

>>19822741
I hope someone mentions me

>>19822741
Well,
>>19822748
There's this guy.

>>19822741
I fucking hate c*mgenius

Shout out to all you schizos out there.

>>19822754
>Shout out to all (You) schizos out there.

What about the guy who was trying to get his manuscript published and kept going to increasingly extreme measures?

>>19822741

This guy >>19822751 who discovered this guy >>19822748 is pretty important.

>>19822754
>>19822755
This guy is a personal favorite of mine

>>19822754
Hey! We're all going to hell because that's the natural fate of human consciousness.

>>19822746
Is this a bot? How is it always the first post made within minutes of the thread being up?

>>19822940
People don’t like low-effort threads. Why are you surprised by this?

>>19822950
I'm not surprised that people don't like low effort threads, I'm surprised by the consistency of which the same post is the first post in every thread.

does anyone remember Laura Numeroff?

>>19822961
I think it is mostly one anon with no life, there is a definite time period in which these posts happen. Low effort OPs often result in great threads and sometimes a good OP does not require much effort. The anon should focus more on making the sorts of threads he desires, the board is once again slow enough to keep a thread bumped for days without much effort.

I liked to think it was really her, getting off at hiding in plain sight, being everything her public image does not allow her to be.

I remember someone wrote a story about her shitting all over his dick or something, it was really funny...

I miss the Wittgenstein poster from a few years back. The bulldozer one still kills me everytime.

>>19823153
Name of book??

>>19823203

>>19823209
I still cannot tell if F Gardner is some 5D Chess genius. Or genuinely retarded. He fucking memed himself into being an author from 4chan ads

>>19822751
The impresario himself, the guy who mentions other guys. Truly the most gregarious and selfless of posters, concise in his post, causal with his "Well", non commital to "there's this guy" - to the point but without being overblown.
>>19822940
Notice how it's only the first post on actually shitty or low-effort threads?

>>19823241
he's retarded, and gets money from his rich dad. simple as.
also, no one reads his shit.

>>19822741
>Can we have a thread about memorable characters of /lit/?
Girardfag was by far the best /lit/ poster of all time & it's not even close. He captured a feeling that I have never been able to shake. Those cosmotech threads were a manic rollercoaster with no seatbelt. I miss that nigga like you wouldn't believe

I dont know

There were some brilliant posts over the years. The board has lost its rigour lately. The zoomers aren't as smart as the older people that moved on

>no mention of D&E
I should have left this place a long time ago.

>>19823153
lmao

>>19823153

>>19823105
Yes, actually. He literally died last last year. Cancer.

This guy >>19822761 is where things began to take a turn towards reddit

>this thread will be deleted before anyone mentions me

>>19823634
kek, I wouldn't come here if it weren't for based reddit delineation anon.

>>19823241
He’s both. F Gardner is a based retard who thinks the Earth is flat.

>>19822741
What happened to Jeff Mangum? He was the only tripfag I liked.

>>19823381
It's not that bad. Simpanon is fun.

Deep&Edgy was once so memorable that this was required.

>>19823626
Yep. RIP Will.

He’s a nice guy, and he was an anonymous here before he started this

that gay playwright that everyone thought was thomas pynchon dropping mad clues because he repeated something that was plainly stated in one of his books

chazanon said he lurked lit. has an enormous personal library

Remember Feminister? It was a tripfag claiming to be a woman. Butterfly simped for it every day and every night for a very long time, and it was clear they were chatting off /lit/ (Butterfly used to be a big camwhore with other tripfags). Then Feminister accidentally left HIS trip on while posting on /adv/ and admitting HE was a man.

He was called out on /lit/ and never made a post with that trip again. But Butterfly continued to simp and dissimulate because it is very likely she had been flirting with this tranny/man in private chat for a year.

Butters lies every time when this come up but anyone who was here remembers.

>>19823848

in that pic you?

>>19823876
Dishonest as you are inaccurate.
“She” may have been male, this had never been made conclusive, I admit leaving without a word was admission enough, just not conclusively.
I liked “her” contribution, but “she” was a straight who said she had a boyfriend already. I don’t simp, and certainly not for some straight girl with a dude in tow.
No lie.

>>19823854
he's based because he's loved in ways you'll never be

>>19823912
sentimental simping for ecelebs. you’re the worst thing about this board

>>19823907
That is a smiling woman without makeup, not a thing. Need your eyes checked?

>>19823285
i clicked that link hoping that would be the song and it was. appreciate you anon.

i'm glad you had a good time. i did too, Cosmotech was fun as hell. i think it was a wave caught at just the right moment, like a nice little electro dance party here on /lit/ to bug out for a while and go ape-shit thinking about stuff. there's room for these things in the universe. we threw a completely rando improvised party and people showed up and it got totally out of control, the way a good party should. that's the stuff i remember most fondly, those rad conversations where people could just about read each other's thoughts. /lit/ is a pain but sometimes it's just fucking fantastic too.

manic and no seatbelts, as you say, but there was definitely something really interesting going on for a spell. there surely wasn't a more fun place elsewhere for me to be, internet or otherwise. and it formed this weird little artifact afterwards, like a little crystal of life as it was lived at warp speed for a few months, weirdness and all. probably worth doing even if it's hard to say exactly why. maybe someone else will figure it out someday, or just go in there and mine it for Whitehead and Land quotes to finish an overdue essay. besides the philosophy greentext stuff i just really got a kick out of sharing music and art too.

give a listen to these guys some time, they're terrific.

one of the best. monsieur guy as well. and the classicist/historian who posts five-post walls of text and discussed strauss and rosen with me then never emailed me. really I hate most of the board now though.

>>19823876
Current butterfly is feminister. Real lesbian butters left before feminister got caught with his trip still on trying to be his own gf on /adv/
All the butters since then are just internet trannies trying to be lesbians

>>19824512
Stupidest theory.

>>19824461
Doubtful, he's gonna McCandless himself within a year.

for me, it's mira gonzalez (before she turned 23 and hit the wall)

I hijacked this guys thread pretending to be him, said he was transgender and had a botched surgery. Good memories

>>19824461
Yeah, this is pretty much your brain after living like le epic bacon unabomber and drinking piss-based moonshine for years in a row, all to impress a couple of 4chan schizos.

>>19824454
This was my post. I remember reading Monk's Wittgenstein biography around that time and sharing those quotes. Fantastic biography, by the way, for those who haven't read it.

>>19822741
No one remembers shitpost-pessoa? I hardly remember his personas. Just two:
>norwegian cabinfag
>"three existential crises, the latter of which was described as having a depth and profundity matching a man twice my age"-fag
There were a lot more though.

I'm confused as to why you retards hate F.Anon so much.

>>19825030
This guy posted a 200+ page completed book of philosophy where the selling point was that he had never learned philosophy. Pure retard but in hindsight I admire it

>>19825030

>>19825051
Those are real? I knew the first one was but I thought the other three were meme posts made by the Wittgenstein poster.

kek reacting as if i just insulted your favorite kpop boyband. this air of reverence that you're trying to impose is both corny and disingenuous, given the general attitude toward other eceleb trash here, and it's not gonna work my friend. at the end of the day, a faggot filming himself reading a book is a faggot filming himself reading a book, even if it happens to be ~in da forest~

>>19825111
Sounds irrational and more like a you problem then to be honest.

>>19825053
norwegian cabinfag was FAKE?? my weekend is ruined

Can someone write smut in which butters is tricked into having secks by two nerds through some literature/reading game and discovers her heterosecksual side?

>>19825111
>kek reacting as if i just insulted your favorite kpop boyband
I don't even watch jewtube I was just intrigued by your rage. If anything your reaction is weird... F.Anon was always kind to anons when he was here and nobody had a problem with him. The few of you who seethe this hard are pretty new in the timeline. So I question how long you've even been on /lit/

>>19825185
>rage
>seethe
yeah dial it down buddy it's not gonna work today. anyone expressing any sort of dislike for this guy appears to trigger his fanbase every time. it's plain simping. i have no beef with the dude in question
