/lit/ - Literature

their (NOT 'there') quest should be to find out why a gamer nerd is hanging out with a rich sociopath. seriously, the two classes never meet. ever.

you may want to consider choosing a sympathetic protagonist, rather than an asshole.

>>2017980

Well the rich guy isnt a stereotype rich guy (full of hate) Hes 27 years old and hangs out in the alternative scene. He prefers them to snobs or hipsters. those are the people he really hates.. And the nerd guy needs needs some kind of social interaction even when his friend only tells him how he hates him. Its the same for the rich guy he needs someone too. But your idea is not bad. I neverr mentioned why they hang out. (and if im honest i dont know) and i will figure out something. The rich guy is an orphan btw... Maybe they met very early in their lifes. That would be an (easy) explanation. But I still need a quest lol

Both characters are you. The nerd is who you really are and the rich guy is who you secretly want to be. There, I just blew your mind. Now try again

lol. u nearly got it right. but they are losely based on my and some of my friends.
that a crime?

>>2018003
>he prefers the alternative scene to snobs and hipsters

what the fuck am I reading

this is why i cant read modern fiction anymore

Jesus kid, that is NOT how you write a story.

You don't just think up two nondescript characters that appeal to you, and then cast around wildly for some sort of plot (or quest as you call it lol) for them to go through.

Your premise sounds juvenile and, frankly, embarrassing. It sounds like some sort of closeted wet dream. I had to google what the "E3" was, and I'm glad I did, because otherwise I would never have appreciated the humor of:

>and the main char is amazed and wants to join him

I don't think ANYONE would be 'amazed' that their gay nerd friend won tickets to some nerd convention; let alone the sort of protagonist you describe.

There is a small, very suppressed, optimistic side of my nature that hopes this is all some sort of weird trolling attempt.

>>2018813
E3 is the largest videogame convention in the world.
It is not open to the public. It is for industry insiders and journalists only.

>>2018813

how to write story

must be a troll.

ops post is too fucking sad and pathetic. cant be serious. who would read such shit?

>>2018819

Oh, Wow. I'm so sorry. That actually is like, super fucking amazing. I mean, I'd be amazed. Literally. An EXCLUSIVE video game convention? The largest in the world?! Man, I think if anyone I knew won two tickets to that, I'd probably blow my load on the spot. In fact, I'm going to call up all my friends right now, and tell them, for posterity, to make sure I'm sitting down if they ever have something that amazing to tell me, because like, otherwise I'd probably have a heart attack. You've really succeeded in convincing me that I was wrong to consider an E3 convention anything less than awe striking.

... or you know, its still a gaming orientated nerd fest that no right minded man would ever give two shits about.

>>2018830
The same could be said of any convention that is for a certain subject.

Your sarcasm only makes you look like a jerk.

>>2018830
>2011
>seems to think it's 1988
>still uses the word "nerd"

ohyou.jpg

>>2018830
What do right-minded people people give two shits about?

>>2018830

You do realise this is a board entirely for books right?

Reading is for nerds. I've always been raised to believe that. Which is why I'm a nerd.

>>2018836

I'm sorry. It's like how it's more polite to call a 'retard' mentally handicapped, or a faggot a homosexual. What do your people prefer to go by these days?

>>2018835

Yes, yes it could. Your story would be no more compelling if the windowlicking sidekick won two tickets to any other sort of convention, believe me. but it might be less pathetically juvenile

>>2018839

Wealth, health, status, women, education, responsibility, family.

>>2018850
How much of is this is your personal opinion and how much is trolling?

It can be damn near impossible to tell the difference sometimes.

>>2018840

In that case you were raised in a culturally impoverished family and I feel sorry for you.

Fantasy and sci-fi novels are for nerds. Comic books are for nerds. Video games, hentai, and sitting at home all weekend in your underwear drinking mountain dew, eating doritos, and jerking off is for nerds.

Literature is for any intelligent adult who doesn't want to be an unprivileged, dimwitted prole.

>>2018852
What sort of music is non-nerds like yourself?
Since you are from /mu/.

>>2018851

It is neither. The various things above listed are objectively considered to be the only reasonable things for a right thinking male in the 21st century to give two shits about.

>>2018852
Something tells me you're unemployed and a repressed homosexual. Also, I'd just like to point out a few things
>you're a tripfag
>/mu/, worst board on 4chan
>which part of wealth, health, status, women, education, responsibility, family does 4chan fit in?

>>2018856
Who created these arbitrary and "objective" criteria?
Sounds like a poor attempt at an appeal to authority.

>>2018855

There's a spectrum. It goes like this:

[most nerdy] anime soundtracks -- j-pop -- metal -- shitty ambient electronica -- dad rock -- entry-level indie -- actual indie -- most of classical and jazz -- a list of hyper cultured artists that I'm not going to bother naming [least nerdy]

Of course, radio rock and pop is also technically down the least nerdy end of the spectrum; but it hardly counts because it rates high on the stupid scale - and everyone knows it is better to be a clever nerd, than an ignorant moron.

ITT: The interrogation of d4rk000kingof/mu/
But it's okay, because tripfags love attention.

>>2018859

this queer's fucked.

I'm out.

>>2018861

Sounds like you haven't realized that appeal to authority is not a logical fallacy in every circumstance - if it was, then you would have very few justified beliefs. Do an epistemology paper you mongol.

>>2018857

Nope and nope. I am a law student, I work the bar at an expensive club, and I am straight (though I dabbled in homosexuality once (as I freely admit to all who know me), so if I was gay, I would hardly be repressed).

/mu/ is not even close to being the worst board on 4chan - which fits broadly under education by the way - being a good source for emerging music, and debate.

>>2018871
>/mu/ is not even close to being the worst board on 4chan
Only thing you've gotten right so far, bro. Enjoy being a pretentious idiot who can't even use proper English when trying to insult others' writing abilities. Maybe if you concentrated on enjoying life and the actual beauty of art and emotion instead of status symbols, gender roles, and fulfilling somebody else's ideas of what is "acceptable," you wouldn't die alone.

>>2018883

You think my English is 'improper' within the specific context of this board? Then tell me why, and cite examples.

Don't get too upset man, we're just having fun aren't we? I must say though, this board never fails to disappoint me. Even when I play devil's advocate, the intellectual caliber of this board is too poor to provide me a decent argument.

>>2018903
>just having fun aren't we
>to provide me a decent argument.
>never fails to disappoint me.

So you want there to be no "decent arguments".
You are afraid of challenges and if one posed itself to you, you would brush it like so.

Your "wanting to have light-hearted fun" seems to contradict the "serious arguments" part.

I posted most of the previous anon posts as well for a change of pace.

>>2018920

>I posted most of the previous anon posts as well for a change of pace.

Well that explains why the quality was even lower than usual.

Did it ever enter your brain that maybe I consider rigorous arguments to be fun? The two aren't mutually exclusive, you frothing vagina.

>>2018932
Then you are looking in the wrong place for fun then.

>>2018903
You're a tripfag. He's anon. QED.

>>2018932
>Well that explains why the quality was even lower than usual.
lol

>>2018938

That has nothing to do with my writing ability. And if you payed the slightest attention to the thread before jumping in, you would realize that most of the anon posts (probably that one included) are really just Bothersome.

>>2018871
>/mu/
>good source for emerging music, and debate.
Good source for hipster bullshit and pretentious tryhards who feign enjoyment of obscure bands that sound like shit just for the sake of obscurity.
>4chan
>fits broadly under education by the way
Pedophiles and neckbeards are now an excellent source of education it seems.

>>2018948
I don't know what to say to this.
You are warning me of myself.
I'm well aware of myself.
I assure you of this.

>>2018945
Yeah, okay, says the guy using "XD" in his posts now and make a lot of pop culture references.

>>2018945

The following is addressed to you and I demand you read it twice for clarity.

Pododo deeble skudda wib wong, sheeba shodohbew mit mot nottlefarm.

Thank you for your time.

>>2018946

I think you missed the word "broadly" - no matter what you think of /mu/'s posters - it is still as good a source as any for what music is being released. And one would be better educated to understand both pedophiles and neckbeards, and the culture of anonymity on the internet, than to be ignorant of these things. I never claimed that 4chan was the only source, or even an important source for my education. That would be silly.

>>2018953
>One would be better educated to understand both pedophiles and neckbeards, and the culture of anonymity on the internet.
If you typed that with a straight face, I salute you.

Thankyou. Unfortunately I never type anything with a straight face as I am a stroke victim and a faggot, you dig?

blow it out your ass magical pig

>>2018959

Remember these fucking words damnit

Pododo deeble skudda wib wong, sheeba shodohbew mit mot nottlefarm.

I mean this with all sincerity Deep. Best of luck to you, Christ knows you'll need it.

WRITE A STORY ABOUT A WHITE GUY GOING TO JAPAN DRINKING AND FUCKING AWAY ALL DAY EVERY DAY, TO THE RIDICULE AND DISBELIEF OF THE DENIZENS OF THE ONLINE COMMUNITY HE FREQUENTS. TIE IN THERE SOMEWHERE ABOUT HOW HIS EASY-GOING ATTITUDE TO LITERATURE ALSO MAKES THEM SO MAD, ESPECIALLY WHEN HE READS MORE THAN THEM

OP, FROM WHAT YOU'VE SHOW-CASED, YOU HAVE MORE THAN THE CAPABILITIES OF PULLING THIS OFF AND REAPING THE REWARDS

YOU CAN ALSO ADD "A TRUE STORY" AT THE END, FOR THAT EXTRA GOOD STUFF

THIS THREAD IS GLORIOUS

trolls trolling trolls trolling newbs
remember, at least for sake of this thread, tripfag = troll
oh, and what OP posted is, sincerely, just a bad idea

hey guys remember the time capsguy posted on japanese clockwork orange inspired pornography

you should write about that op

>>2018968

He also knows shit-all about literature. Trust me.

D&E is just the same as everyone else.

Plays video games (PC), reads junk, and who knows what else. Probably secretly underage like so many other tripfags.

>>2018968

Have you already forgotten what I taught you about mutual exclusivity a few minutes ago? Do I have to draw you a fucking Venn diagram?

>>2018970
THIS IS ALSO WORTH WRITING ABOUT

I GOT BANNED FOR POSTING THAT

EVEN THOUGH I REMOVED ALL THE NAUGHTY PARTS OF THE BODY

REPOSTING BECAUSE I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO POST A PORNOGRAPHIC IMAGE IF I REMOVE ALL THAT MAKES IT PORNOGRAPHIC

I lift weights as well don't forget that

>>2018972
I'm aware.
I remember when D&E used to make good posts.
Oh so long ago.
But all his tripfag friends left him.
So he's been out of sorts.
He has posts whining about their departure.
It's hard to live on /lit/ all day long when your circlejerk leaves you.

>>2018980
I am a fucking Venn diagram.

>>2018979
I'm sure there's a lot of things you do.
At this rate, your two huge posts on how to argue with you are going to be worthless. So much wasted time and effort on your part.

>>2018977
beautiful, why it didn't get an oscar?

>>2018986
The Japanese make porn parodies of everything.
It's a dime a dozen.

>>2018986
IT'S TOO GOOD FOR THIS WORLD

>>2018989
WHERE DOES CAPSGUYS (PLURAL FORM) GO?

>>2018982

>>2018987

don't you mean diamond dozen?

>>2018989
That is a correct assessment of my posting.

>>2018982
pleased to meet you, i've never met an intelligent venn diagram before
how's life going without a body to speak of?

>>2018992
No, I don't.
You are the one with the corrupted idioms.

>>2018993
>implying I'm intelligent
>implying the circles aren't my body
>implying you wouldn't get a response like this.

>>2018996
still, a plenty good reply for someone who doesn't have arms or brain

or soul

>>2018999
No one has souls.
The soul is a religious concept.
Just because you think have one doesn't mean you do.
Who needs arms? They are overrated. Just use thought activated. The brain cannot be seen because it doesn't exist on the 2d plane.

I have no idea what I'm talking about because I'm a silly American who should be sleeping.

no one is deleting their posts from this thread
not at all

WELL IT'S NOT A MOD, SINCE MY PIC IS STILL THERE
