My Twisted World by Elliot Rodger

Old Testament, my man.

>Buddhist nihilism
wut?

>>6476322

I was Nihilist in knowing that humanity will never outcompete itself in senselessness and futility, but I was Buddhist because I wanted to affirm what existence we do possess through a concentrated attention and discipline on the most minimal and basic requisites for life, wisdom, and what I attempted to uphold as compassion.


But I realize that the other fuckers have been having their cake and eating it too and its about time I watched their fat, indulgent faces twist in horror, agony, and pain as the greatest punishment for what they have neglected is inflicted upon them to the most harrowingly and delightfully painful degree.

It's very enlightening how petty and vengeful the old testament god is

You need some fucking chillwave and a beach or something

Im not looking for no romantic pussy bitch shit, I'm talking straight up using literature as a weapon and inciting feelings of redemptive violence and liberation through the infliction of pain.

Take a cold shower bro.

Thank me later.

This looks like your kind of thing anon

Read pic related, it's basically Black Metal: The Book.

>In this arid wilderness of steel and stone I raise up my voice
>that you may hear.
>To the East and to the West I beckon. To the North and to
>the South I show a sign —
>Proclaiming, "Death to the weakling, wealth to the strong."
>Open your eyes that you may hear, O! men of mildewed
>minds and listen to me, ye laborious millions!
>For I stand forth to challenge the wisdom of the world; to
>interrogate the "laws" of man and of "God."
>I request reasons for your Golden Rule and ask the why and
>wherefore of your ten Commands.
>Before none of your printed idols do I bend in acquiescence
>and he who saith "thou shalt" to me is my mortal foe.
>I demand proof over all things, and accept (with
>reservations) even that which is true.
>I dip my forefinger in the watery blood of your impotent
>mad-redeemer (your Divine Democrat— your Hebrew Madman)
>and write over his thorn-torn brow, "The true Prince of Evil —the
>King of the Slaves!"

>>6476513
>No hoary falsehood shall be a truth to me — no cult or dogma shall encramp my pen.
>I break away from all conventions. Alone, untrammeled. I raise up in stern invasion the
>standard of Strong.
>I gaze into the glassy eye of your fearsome Jehovah, and pluck him by the beard — I uplift
>a broad-axe and split open his worm-eaten skull.

>I blast out the ghastly contents of philosophic whited
>sepulchres and laugh with sardonic wrath.

>Then reaching up the festering and varnished facades of
>your haughtiest moral dogmas, I write thereon in letters of blazing
>scorn: — "Lo and behold, all this is fraud!"

When you're feeling misanthropic always remember how horrible life is and how people are all in a torturous death trap. Maybe watch the news for a bit.

Then be happy that mankind is already being punished by mere existence at that existence itself will end soon enough.

Dr Fischer of Geneva, Graham Greene
Hangover Square, Patrick Hamilton
La Reine Margot, Dumas Pere (to add to the Comte de Monte Cristo above)
The Art of Joy, Goliarda Sapienza

Plays:
Under Milk Wood, Dylan Thomas (since this is probably further than you'll sublimate your rage to, but honest)
Duchess of Malfi, John Webster (try to see it performed at the new Blackfriars, beautiful closet drama)
Phaedra's Love, Sarah Kane (most of Kane could go here)

I'm not sure you know what any of those things mean. A nihilist that values buddhist values? This must be the dumbest shit I ever heard.

Stop giving in to feels and read more books.

Sounds like the general premise for "American Psycho," OP. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned it.

Edgiest thread on the board this week. Go join IS or something.

Coming from a guy with some pretty heavy anger management issues, a modest two gram dose of Psilosibe Cubensis put me into a state wherein I was so detatched from my usual state of mind that I recognised my anger as being unnecessary and ultimately impotent, and ssimply found something more interetsing to do than being angry.

Of course it didn't stick permanently, as we all return to the mundane world and our usual conventions of thought sooner or later, but it did give me a bit of a perspective shift.

That's what I do when I can't get laid and feel like a prospectless loser.

It works really well.

Thomas Bernhard (Woodcutters, Old Masters, Gathering Evidence/My Prizes)
Léon Bloy (Exégèse des lieux communs)
Louis-Ferdinand Céline (Voyage au bout de la nuit, la trilogie allemande)
Arthur Schopenhauer (anything he's written about hegelianism and post-kantian philosophy in general)
August Strindberg (By the open sea, Black flags, Getting married)

I hope you get the catharsis you need OP.

>>6476571
This.

>I hate everyone and everything.

No you don't. You hate a thought of your own construction. You are the one who erects the barriers others destroy. The annoyance is created by you, not the source of your annoyance.

>>6476693
This notion that anger is immature is perpetuated by spineless people. Anger is a healthy and valuable emotion and if you think its a bad thing to feel angry you have an emotional defect.

>>6477427
It's not a bad thing to feel angry and frustrated, what's bad is how you deal with that anger.

Read the OP and tell me that looks like a mature way to deal with anger.

>>6476284
Genuinely curious frogposter-kun, what event and unfortunate things actually happened to you in your life to lead you to this state of mind? Do you you have a plan to carry out?

Crime and Punishment. Your sin is the same as Raskalnikov's; you've forgotten love.

>>6476571
This actually makes me feel better.

Thank you strange anon for this gem of wisdom.

>>6476284
That one Elliot Rodger book.

>>6477465
Reading is an immature way to deal with anger?

What's they're looking for is no different then listening to a song that correlates with the mood you're in. OP is just looking for a release. It's fine.

Ingratitude, disloyalty, resentment, rancor define the plebeian soul in every age and characterize this century.
