Kid you are not going to impress no one with your book collection, you are literally the 99.99% of the filth that roam in this board; the only thing you enjoy about books is the air of elitism that dance around you while you list to someone(on the internet) what you have read.

They should talk about these books on /co/.
Everybody would be happier, comics readers plebeians don't have prejudices and enjoy many things in life.

We as the elite would enjoy our philosophy without having any care about these lesser books.

Let's make a proposal for a new board, at this point this is the best solution for everyone.

The possibilities are two:

1:/co&fic/ A new board fused with /co/ where shit books can be discussed by the masses.

2:/fic/ A plain new board for those jokes.

Wouldn't be better for everyone ?

Honestly though, another board might remove discussion about sci-fi and fantasy and whatnot, but what it would really do is to remove the entire feeling of elitism on the board, leading to a decrease in ostracism, which in turn would decrease the wish and will for visitors to improve.

Besides, if you can't handle some discussion that does not entice you, you are a child.

It's amazing how people on this board feel intelligent and cultured while the only outwards appearance is that of an ignorant.

I'm truly astonished at the sheer amount of idiocy present in this board, but if this amaze me there's another thing that make me lose any hope in humanity.
That is the disgraceful combination of stupidity and illusory cultural enrichment, never in my life i've seen such a dense number of people hit by such an horrible disease.

People tends to forget that they are in an almost dead section of 4 fucking chan.
Be elitist as much as you want, but you will never have the balls to tell people(you don't know people just your monitor) that you talk about post-modernism or philosophy here on 4chan with underages,pedophiles,necrophiliacs etc.
