/lit/ - Literature

well I would give you a response but because of the first 5/7 of your post I can tell you're an entitled little cunt so I'm sure you can find stuff on your own

you mean the wife of bath? and what foreign country do you come from?

>>5638459
hey man, try the dedicated homework board
>>>/hm/

>>5638459
>only in top five
>second best writer
>only second
also, says who? your mommy?
post an excerpt of something you've written and maybe, MAYBE, I'll help you with your homework if it isn't horse shit.

>Top 5 student
>English wiz
>Second best writer
>Can't figure out how to do his own research.

Let me guess, inner city school?

Even if not, high school doesn't mean shit. I know lots of people who thought they were amazing at something in high school, only to go out in the real world and realize they're just mediocre at it, and the fact that the competition in high school is so low, they just looked amazing.

>>5638459
This has to be a troll, otherwise there is no reason to list all your high school accomplishments.

Underaged, b&, saged

lol stop feeding the troll guys pls

>>5638524
How mad are you that someone thinks well of themselves you fucking bitch?

I feel sorry for all of you /lit/.
Frankly, I thought this was a board away from all of the prosaic garbage on 4chan.
I apologize for my inconsiderate waste of your time for viewing a legitimate question.
Thank you.

>By the way
As I said, I've done my own research, yet wished for a like-minded person to provide a differing opinion of the false piety of the wife of Bath. I once again apologize for my naivete and faith in a board dedicated to literature.

>>5638553
Not very. It's fucking high school dude. You can easily be the best at something in your class, only to go out to where there's real competition and find out you're only mediocre at it.

You know how many guys i went to high school with who thought they'd be in the NBA, or win a Pulitzer prize by age 20? Lots. Guess how many made it? None.

>>5638573
And here you are still hacking at the dude's sense of self-worth. What are you, a sadist?

>>5638578
>What are you, a sadist
Yeah, kinda.

>>5638578
Honestly, thanks man, you're the only person here who hasn't been a twat. What's your opinion on Chaucer's work? (OP here)

>>5638570
shutup faggot you're like sixteen, I probably work with your dad or something

This website isn't for kids and nothing about it is prosaic. your overly grandiloquent speach just goes to demonstrate your faux, made up "stature"

Go to Reddit, they love your type there. Or post some of your "work" if you're such an esteemed writer. Please, amuse us

>>5638570
>I've done my own research, yet wished for a like-minded person to provide a differing opinion of the false piety of the wife of Bath.
Yeah, you never provided an "opinion of the false piety of the wife of Bath" to differ with though, you fucking retard.

>>5638597
I would actually enjoy fueling your apparent hatred for decency. So, I'll retort by saying if you worked with my father, you'd most likely be either dead, or a highly decorated military officer.
>Frankly, I doubt you are either, and if you were, you'd know when to stop talking.

>>5638609
You do not need my opinion, I just hoped for one to compare or contrast my personal thoughts. Would you like to here a "fucking retard's" opinion?

>>5638610
Damn, sick burn bro. I bet your tearing up that underage pussy.

>>5638589
It's shit, why couldn't he just use normal people language?

>>5638610
okay this thread is bait. had me going for a second but this post was too ambitious

>>5638570
Pls b real

>>5638570
>le entitled teenager face

>In a college level English class

In canada the college level courses are where we place the stupid kids

>>5638583
That generally comes in the form of delusional combating of a sense of inferiority anon

>>5638628
>le superior Canadian face

>>5638628
When I was in high school, they'd let you take college level courses if you did well enough though. It was just LIT101 basically, which was basically the same thing as a high school lit class.

Does anybody here have any knowledge even pertaining to Chaucer? Or am I wasting my time?

>>5638637
the dude lived a long time ago I donno

>>5638631
Maybe, but you're still a three dollar word spouting faggot.

>>5638597
>Or post some of your "work" if youre such an esteemed writer. Please, amuse us
While this board luckily doesn't have a hubbox when it comes to writing, making it a shitty place to share your stuff only makes it harder to see what other people is doing and improving on ones work. Don't try to prey at someone's work just to show how much of a grown up you are, because besides doing the exact opposite of that, you are shitting up the board more than, OP.

Also, OP, make a more succinct post if you want answers. Maybe even open up to other related stuff that isn't for your assignment but is nice to read about. I'm not from an english speaking country and the canterbury tales as we get them are heavily edited in the translation, it's nice to see this stuff in the correct light.

>>5638628
maybe that's because your higher education system is for retards :^)

>>5638637
Oddly enough, last time i read Chaucer was in high school, so I don't really remember shit about it. There was a guy with a face like a nut......about all I got, fago.

In Ontario they separate classes into three academic streams University, For normal kids, College, for dumb kids, and Open, for the kind of kid who would eat staples on a dare

>you will never be a slutty 17 year old cheerleader that gets gangbanged by the whole football team

>>5638573
That makes me sad

I remember a friend wanted to be NBA

It hurt when I asked about it when I saw him at college, it wasn't that he laughed at a childish dream and he moved on, it was that he said he wasn't good enough for that

People too easily give up their dreams I don't think he even tried nor did he mention any new goal

>>5638615
It's nice etiquette to have something about the topic in the OP so people interested know they'll be able to have some interaction, otherwise threads can become opinion dispensers without any interesting talk.

>>5638628
How does that work?

>>5638636
Most first year college stuff covers topics you could had seen in HS, but that has more to do with HS being useless.

>>5638639
What's the deal with americans and giving price to words? Would a ten dollar word be more useful or just more obscure?

>>5638609

>you'll never be a cute but shy bookish 17 y/o girl schlicking while thinking about being confident and sucking off that guy who reads Pynchon and is sure he knows all about the powers that be who's as shy as you are.

Read the fucking story you idiot.

>>5638658
>What's the deal with americans and giving price to words? Would a ten dollar word be more useful or just more obscure?

I think the saying actually is "ten dollar word". It's a saying that hasn't been used since the 1930s I think, so I think I got it wrong. Just trying to be funny in any case.

>>5638524
Lots of people who thought they were hot shit in high school get to college and completely murder their GPA their freshman year since they find out college isn't autopilot easy mode like high school where you don't even have to study.

I've seen it happen over and over again.

>>5638640
Avatarfag, plz go.

>>5638685
I didn't try very hard in high school or college and was a B+ average student throughout both lel

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Guys I'm an esteemed and established literary canon language entrepreneur that won 100 spelling bees and 20 fiction sweepstakes with inspirations from top writers that you've probably never read such as George Orwell, Raul Dohl, and Stephanie Meyer don't like to invite the comparison but I'm the next Hemingway

Would you guys like to be enlightened with my unilateral wit? I don't know if you know Neitzhsch but he discovered gravity and said that God is dead, I can tell you more if you'd like

>>5638686
My posts are 100% well though up quality and I strive to make /lit/ a better place. You're jelly that you can't have a gimmick like me, but you can also do it, anon, I believe in you!

Aren't you a tranny too? Disgusting.

Kolsti pls go

>>5638724
I think it's adorable that you have to pretend that pointing out the obvious about your repulsive, friendless life is "trolling" you.

>>5638726
top kek

I know you guys like to talk to me this much, but you should really at least sage or you'll look desperate!

>>5638710
That's a bad gimmick, everyone does it already!

>>5638713
Well, I do what I can. I sometimes make inflamatory comments to take the discussion in a certain direction, it's nicer to discuss a topic than to present a complete and closed idea.
Still, thank you for checking, hope things work better in the future.

>>5638738
Thanks! You're adorable too bumping this and answering my posts to stop paying me attention! You're great at it!

>>5638761
>Le respond to me xP
I've played that game for longer than you've know this website exists.

>>5638693
Maybe you went to a shitty college.

>>5638761
are you a male or female? what the fuck

>>5638814
Does that matter?

>>5638847
sure

Could you possibly be any more pretentious?
