Aeschylus and Yeats are my favourite authors. I turned 18 yesterday.

>>20550016
Barely any do so no. It's why threads like these get made and why threads with potential turn to shit a few posts in.

Of course it is, this webm was just posted on the homosexual containment board /fit/

>>20550028
Shame /lit/ is such a shit board.

>>20550012

>>20550012
Twitter threads about some e-celeb they didn't know about 5 seconds ago.

I wish he was licking my penis, and not that icecream, if you catch my drift.....
Not gay btw hes just really pretty

>>20550012
They just masturbate to pretty teenage boys.

F Gardner novels

>>20550012
There's no way the average zoomer is reading as many books as a similar reader a few decades ago. You have to remember (if you're old enough) that there really was nothing else to do. I used to have an hour long bus ride before and after school. That gave me two extra hours a day to read with no smartphone to distract me. Then there was lunchtime reading too. Movie rentals were once a week at most. There were video games, but the further back you go the less attractive and addictive and portable they were. There's no way I would have read Robert E. Howard before grade three if I was born after YouTube. No way I would have completed The Lord of the Rings before I was out of grade four. In short, zoomers don't really read. The ones that do are an anomaly.

Zoomers want blood so badly but struggle to pull the trigger on a airsoft gun

>>20550012
Would you?

>>20550395
He's on /lit/ so he doesn't read.

>>20550426
You misunderstand, so I ask again
Would you?

>>20550026
Any books on how aoc has fooled so many people?
Ted K's The System's Trick?

I hate zoomers so much it’s unreal

>>20550464
yeah

>>20550012

He looks 14 you sick fucks.

i'm 20 and currently steeped in pynchon, eliot (t.s. and george), philip roth, and nathanael west

>>20550560
He looks 18-22. Meds.

This webm makes me nauseous.

>>20550464
Fuck that's a good freeze frame.

>>20550565
No he doesn't you sick fuck.

>>20550560
Erm...source on that claim!?!?

>>20550659
Look at his face

>>20550645
I’m not even one of the fags but he’s obviously not 14

>>20550645
16-18 maybe

>>20550680
>>20550696
are you guys saying this because you don't want to admit that you're attracted to a 14years old

>>20550361
>There's no way the average zoomer is reading as many books as a similar reader a few decades ago.

Because there's nothing for them to read. Millennials culturally gentrified the genres meant for them. It's called young adult for a reason, but yet only millennials read that shit. As always, millennials ruin everything.

>>20550392
>Zoomers want blood so badly but struggle to pull the trigger on a airsoft gun

Typical millennial projection. Last I checked, it was a zoomer who shot up a Texas school and Buffalo supermarket. Meanwhile, millennials are online whining about Harry Potter house trivia and frog memes.

>>20550560
>He looks 14 you sick fucks.

>>20550560
Even better.

>>20550731
Zoomers are so superior to millenialcucks it’s not even funny.

>>20550680
He looks less developed than my 17 y.o cousin. Fuck off pedo.

>>20550769

Every generation is, not just zoomers. Millennials are a glorified speedbump in the annals of history.

>>20550769
I hate millenials so much it’s unreal. Behead all those who insult zoomerfrens. Protec zoomers from kvetching millenials.

>guys coom over youthful babe
>seething roastoids and elderly bottoms come out of the woodwork
Every time

>>20550809
>I hate millenials so much it’s unreal.

I don't hate them. There's plenty of decent millennials around. I just love poking fun at the boomerlennials, the ones who just regurgitate what their parents said at zoomers because they think it gives them power. No, it just implies you know deep down Mom and Dad were right: wasting your life being terminally online is just for guys what a gender studies degree is for a woman. But don't take my word for it - wait a decade or two for the suicide statistics to roll on in.

Okay, let's have a real answer here: Boy zoomers don't read, girl zoomers read WattPad stories and maybe 13 Reasons Why.

>>20550869

Neither boy nor girl zoomers read. Shit, son, nobody reads, period, except millennial cat ladies and Dan Schneider (Cosmoetica) types.

who is he?

uni media students at goldsmiths read joan didion & zizek

>>20550012
we don't

>>20550012
Fiction wattpad stories about some gay shit or something so unrealistic that zoomer girls set unachiavable standards and it takes them ages to realize that their wattpad bullshit isn't real life.

Other than that - zoomies don't read. Period.

>>20550027
>Aeschylus
He wrote a cycle on homosexuals. Sophocles is better.

>>20550026
Good thing us zoomies are all cowards

>>20550012

What's it like being handsome? The idea of having innate and ostensible value is so deeply alien to me. God I wish anyone would love me.

>doe eyes
>no facial hair
Oh so he’s just a low t bitch

>>20551070

Millennial girls read that shit, anon. Trying to pass off a decade of millennial femcels as zoomers....lol, what a crock. We really are blessed to live in an age where lunatics aren't thrown into padded cells but are instead encouraged to broadcast their every waking thought to the world, though. That's why I wish boomers would stop being so hard on you losers: you're God's gift to comedy. Can't wait for the suicide statistics to skyrocket once y'all realize frog memes and Harry Potter house trivia ain't gonna get you anywhere. Faggots. Rib busting faggots.

>>20551813
Yes, literally built for cock

>>20550850
Shut the fuck up, loser lmao

>>20550012
>It's another midwit millennials give their milquetoast regurgitated opinions about Zoomers thread
I fucking hate this site

>>20550012
am Zoomer, 20: just read Mystries by hamsun, and Heart of Darkness. Am gonna start à la recherche du temps perdu (swanns way) today, and am slowing getting through either/or also. In addition, my favourite book (for the moment) is either V (Mr. Pynchon), The Collector, or To the Lighthouse. (Am lit student btw)

>>20550012
>zoomers
>reading

>>20550012
Mainly light or YA novels. Not many of us read to begin with, but there are some who do.

Currently reading Red Badge of Courage myself

>>20550850
>wasting your life online
uh..where else am i supposed to go again to have fun? outside? lol..

>>20550012
I'm 19 and finished the plague recently. Reading brave new world at the moment

>>20550012
The majority of posters on /lit/ are 18 to 21 years old, literally zoomers. So just check the catalog I guess.

>>20553071
Sure if you want to know what incel nazi zoomers read. The "normal" ones read Heartstopper and Song of Achilles. Unironically.

>>20550027
sweet anon i had my birthday yesterday too

>>20551351
It's literally just that. The issue is that, like anything, you get acclimated to it, and it no longer gives you a high as when you first realise it; then of course comes the pain of its inevitable loss.

Not that I'd know lmaooooooooooooo

>>20553110
If you read the song of achilles you're not normal, you're a 29 yo white fujoshi on tumblr.

>>20550012
nothing
they're literally more retarded than millennials

>>20550012
Nothing, they're almost as retarded as millennials whose iq goes into to the negative, making them read Harry poofta

>>20551892
this is one of the saddest posts i've read this week
go to the gym or something man

>>20553708
I fucked your gf on vacation fat millenial kys.

>>20553712
what's your 1 RM squat again

>>20553719
>27
>not a zoomer
lol nvm faggot you don't even have a woman. I'm sorry

>>20553737
i would bet my house that I had more sex with more women last sunday than you have in your entire life

>>20553740
Nah you didn't but really i will stop bullying you it's not right to harass the mentally deficient. Enjoy your funkopops son, ah and let me know how the new Thor film is. Go to the gym though and shed some weight.

>>20550012
They read porno self insert fanfiction and published picture books

By and large? Not much. We statistically read less than every generation before us, including millennials. The more enticing way of getting information (which is highly valued among Gen Z) is through long-form Youtube video essays. Anyway, I worked at a uni library and the ones that do read tend to go for YA and "life-affirming" stuff like The Midnight Library, basically positive affirmations in paper form to keep them from killing themselves. We're definitely the weakest generation of all time, mentally. I worry for Gen Alpha.

>>20553749
yeah that's definitely incel prose
we're done here. i don't waste my knowledge and time on men who can't even do a pullup

>>20553755
>ao3
>comics and manga
>zoomers read this
Anon...

>>20553761
t.Fat

>>20553756
90% of video essays could be done in ~10 minutes. It's impressive honestly how they manage to spread it out to be hours sometimes

>>20553770
That's youtubers in general desu. Midrolls used to be good money and the culture of getting 10+ minute vids stayed.

>>20553765
Yes they do

>>20550464
YES

this is in the top 3 worst threads on /lit/ right now

>>20553880
These ones always are lad.

>>20550012
I find it hilarious how the webm from twinks I post on /lit/ perpetuate their sporadic existence here for ages.
Easily influenced closeted homosexuals.

>>20550564
>>20551784
>>20552657
>>20553018
every time somebody makes a thread asking about what zoomers read we get all the zoomers crawling out of the woodwork "hurr durr look im 18 and reading wittgenstein and pynchon and arno schmidt see zoomers do read" no shit if you're on /lit/ then the chances are you do read books; we're asking about the normal zoomers that don't visit this place

>>20553931
What do millennials who arent on lit read? This thread has been disingenious from the start niggy you know it too. This whole thread is whining. Feminine thread frfr no cap.

>>20553922
Insane yea, usually these threads are pure cope from old heads but with the homobait OP all the old fags come here to see what the jizz is all about. I'm surprised there's only been a few "Source?" replies.

>>20553931
post the other homofag files you have. i am certain 90% of them you will have ripped from /lit/ threads, hence me

>>20553756
while this is technically true, i cant help but feel like its a big disingenuous to the few zoomers who are actually reading not with the goal of appearing smart or copying an aesthetic (pseudo-intellectuals) but who are actually reading for their own sake or to further a genuine personal goal or interest

>>20553966
why are you so defensive over videos of this guy? are you his real boyfriend or something?

>>20554008
I just wish you retards would one day contribute something original yourself and not just repost whatever you saved from someone else.
Seeing the same old files is boring.

>>20554008
>its a big disingenuous
*a bit disingenuous

>>20554011
I made these two webms myself so i don't know what to tell you. also your twink is a lot less attractive with the acne and the faintly visible pube-stache and is almost repulsive when he starts acting like a degenerate

>>20554028
Does this person ever wash their face&hair?

>>20554028
yeah I can read your file names dont worry.
and not my twink. stop projecting your vicarious living personality.
But I have never seen this video before, msut be less than 6 months old. Congrats!

>>20550012

>>20550012
Yaoi and other Jap shit. Or fanfiction. Or any other smut. As long as its not too problematic. I.e more sex and paedos and less toxic masculinity.
