A djinn comes to you and may give you one of the following:

A. Two of your favorite books merge together and you get a third book with everything you liked from the former two.
B. You may now read 4 times as fast.
C. Pick a language you have some skills at. You may now read any kind of literature in that language.
D. That book. You know, that book you've always wanted to write but didn't because you thought you lacked inspiration and/or writing skills? Well you have both now.
E. $50000 in your bank account, right now, but you may only buy books with it.

But everything has a price: in order to get what you want you must kill one tripfag as a sacrifice (the process of killing is instantaneous: just tell the tripcode and its owner will die right now).

Now, what do you get and what tripfag do you kill?

Is that even a question? Take cash, kill Deep&Edgy of course.

>> No.2022553

D. Deep & Edgy. Both are no-brainers.

>> No.2022554

B.

Deep&Edgy

>> No.2022555

If I had two options I'd say D&E and D&E. But since I must pick only one, I'd say D and Deep&Edgy.

And I would kill Gundra because she hasn't been posting here since 2008, the slut.

Also it is nice to see another threade aboute mee.

>> No.2022582

B would be fun but I enjoy reading slowly, so I'll take D.

One tripfag? Hell I'd ask him to kill them all.

>> No.2022589

B is pretty awesome, but goddamnit D.

>> No.2022593

>>2022564

>> No.2022597

E and Deep&Edgy

Anyone not taking the cash is a faggot

>> No.2022599

Am I the only person who wants E? That would get me all 1,600 books on my immediate wishlist, the entire back catalog of New York Review Books Classics, a large collection of fine editions from Folio Society and all kinds of other books.

Of course, it'd be best to combine it with B, but a large personal library is more desirable than speed-reading ability, to me. It benefits more people, at least. Unless I can retain full comprehension with the four times as fast reading.

And I'd kill Brownbear, but I think he's dead already.

>> No.2022606

>>2022599
Same, but I'd kill Deep&Edgy. His semen would poison Brownbear, and kill him while he's sucking D&E's cock, it's a way of killing 2 birds with a single stone...

>> No.2022607

B. I read really slow. Its fucking frustrating at times. I contemplated D for about 4 seconds, until I realized, with magical assistance, how sure could I be it was entirely mine? I want to write that book. ME. Personally. Otherwise, there is no point.

Also, Quentin.

>> No.2022627

Realistically, I couldn't take a life.

But since this is just a game, I'd kill the first tripfag I see and claim C for Vietnamese. Also, I guess Deep & Edgy is going to die.

>>2022597

I could never read $50 000 in books, especially when anything over a hundred years old is free

I am not reading a book and I don't want to cram books into me. Though I would love to see Catch-22's humor of bureaucracy combined with nearly any other book/play/poem, I think Grapes of Wrath would go great with it, I would also love to be able to read (and speak?) french, and that would benefit me more, so that.

And I would kill Quentin, there is no other tripfag that rages me with 100% of their posts.

The only reason I wouldn't kill Quentin is that he's so obviously trolling. Like, I can't even take him seriously, sometimes he's even funny.

>> No.2022753

E for sure. How is everyone not picking E?

Kill abatap. But not instantaneous. Slowly and painfully. With pliers and a blowtorch.

>> No.2022781

>>2022736
Quentin is trolling, it's too obvious.
However I couldn't tell for D&E. He's either a masterful troll or a very, very, very pretentious and worthless asshole. If I had to kill one, I'd probably choose D&E.

>> No.2022817

What if i take D and my dream book is the true to life story of the extended torture and humiliation of Deep&Edgy in a 50yr long stay at a Vietnamese prison camp? Will that cancel the instantaneous death?

>> No.2022821

B. or E.

If I were forced to make a choice, probably E.

I can teach myself to read at a faster pace, right?

Oh shit I forgot about Abatap lol

The guy who is pretending to be Abatap isn't the original who left a long time ago. That guy is insane!!! According to Green oval that guy has made over 65k posts (if you add all the different trips that he has used)

More than all the /lit/ trips combined! He really is a fucking monster.

The OG Abatap wasn't trolling. this new guy is just psychotic. I mean really, think about it this way, if you are going to devote all of your time to trolling by using a well known troll name and then emulating their style badly.

It's like the guy was to stupid to come up with his own trolling identity.

He can't even troll right, yet he does it in such a high quantity, that you can't help but feel sorry for the psychotic bastard.

>> No.2023026

What would be the point of any of these things if I couldn't use them to make Deep&Edgy jealous?

But B, I think. Assuming you get just as much comprehension, this would be a quick way to advance my career, become extremely erudite, and generally have a lot more time and choices in life (for, say, D). It makes all the other choices much easier.
