The next real literary “rebels” in this country might well emerge as some weird bunch of anti-rebels, born oglers who dare somehow to back away from ironic watching, who have the childish gall actually to endorse and instantiate single-entendre principles. Who treat of plain old untrendy human troubles and emotions in U.S. life with reverence and conviction. Who eschew self-consciousness and hip fatigue. These anti-rebels would be outdated, of course, before they even started. Dead on the page. Too sincere. Clearly repressed. Backward, quaint, naive, anachronistic. Maybe that’ll be the point. Maybe that’s why they’ll be the next real rebels. Real rebels, as far as I can see, risk disapproval. The old postmodern insurgents risked the gasp and squeal: shock, disgust, outrage, censorship, accusations of socialism, anarchism, nihilism. Today’s risks are different. The new rebels might be artists willing to risk the yawn, the rolled eyes, the cool smile, the nudged ribs, the parody of gifted ironists, the “Oh how banal”. To risk accusations of sentimentality, melodrama. Of overcredulity. Of softness. Of willingness to be suckered by a world of lurkers and starers who fear gaze and ridicule above imprisonment without law. Who knows.

this guy is wrong, I remember the thread this was made in, the actual focus is on Nietzsche's demeanor i.e. a ruthless killer.

This is mainly because it was this kill that won the games for nietzchy boy

The worst part of this is that people on this board will actually believe this. Thereby disproving how smart they think the board is.

>>7876132
I love the top half of this image. Do you have that picture on its own?

>>7879723
Projecting this hard. Maybe this isn't the board 4u.

>>7879722
that's hilarious.

Lit posters post more because this board is more dedicated to dialog. Obviously we're gonna get faster response times because we post more, and use the captcha more.

>>7879728
Ye you're right i should hang out with you over on /b/ and /mlp/

>>7879722
Bull shit.

>>7879726
well its the cover design to his book Fanged Noumena iirc and if that helps

>>7875443
I did this too, I don't see how it's humorous. I wish I were back then, everything was so easy fml

>not the one with the stirner bird

>>7876754
This is the exact conclusion I came to as well. At a certain point I decided I was going to be sincerely sincere in my view of life. Not that I never use Irony but that I always have a sincere opinion I refer to.

>>7875324

Is this non sequitur or was there something in the book I had missed?

>>7880971
>I swallowed hard.
Why is that sentence in past tense?

>>7880971
I wonder what this would look like for Joyce, Pynchon and DFW.

Take me down
To the Ithica city
Where Penelope lays
And gets fucked silly
O, won't you please take me home

Just a Grecian livin' on the sea, I'm a
Trojan killa that's tough to beat
but I love to have feasts
where there's lots to eat
young dawn with her rose read fingeeeeeeeers
Gotta get me home and uncuck

Penelope's waiting o so they say
Gotta keep sailin' dealing with my shipmates
They keep fucking up I hope they die
Gotta go kill the suuuuiiiitoooorrrssssss
Better show up in disguise

Take me down
To the Ithica city
Where Penelope lays
And gets fucked silly
O, won't you please take me home
Take me down
To the Ithica city
Where Telemachus lays
And acts like a pussay
Take me home

Well now I've hit land, I've a
met with the daughter
of some important man gonna
let me in his larder
now I'm in Ithica and it's time to diiiiiiiie
let me string my bow up now

Take me down
To the Ithica city
Where the suitors are dead
And my bed is stationary
O, won't you please take me home
Take me down
To the Ithica city
Where I reign king
And plow my earned pussay
Take me home

>>7881501

I would totally read this, both ironically and unironically.

No. It implies.

>>7881108
It saddens me that neutrality became something some people aspire to. I always have these encounters, specially in the US, with people that have no opinions on anything but menial matters. That helps the ironic way of living to survive as it protects the people. The rebels you mention would have to abandon this and be ready to be dispossessed and be pariahs in a world that won't value them until they finally succeed in creating a new culture.

>>7883153

I don't know why this made me laugh so hard

>>7883815
This messed me up man. Life is so surreal.

>>7875526
Iconoclasm is the backbone of cynicism. Crates and Hipparchia's relationship is one of the first in history to suggest the idea that both partners are equal, and Hipparchia came from a wealthy family and gave it up to live in the streets with her hazubando, which was sufficient enough to be accepted by their contemporaries so who gives a shit what some modern scholar thinks? Cynicism is about living virtuously in accordance to nature and challenging the status quo, but there are still many inconsistencies and contradictions. A good cynic would not work and did not concern themselves with intellectual pursuits, but they obviously taught and studied philosophy and panhandling is a form of work. Cynics reject religion and spirituality, but Diogenes sought advice from the oracle. It is easier to understand this bullshit if you keep in mind the goal of Cynicism was to basically emulate Heracles.


Personally I find it fascinating but in more than a few ways, it's basically the ancient greek version of NEET culture.

>>7879386
>thomas
Thomas Moore?
Thomas Aquinas?

>>7882682
It's basically Iceburg Slim but not as G.

>>7884547
Is it simulationist to believe that reality is numbers and we're just a set of solutions?

>>7884552
so nihilism is only for rich people then

>>7884901
Poor people can not give a fuck either, they usually just hold family as too important to leave.

>>7884996

Saved. This is clearly the best one of these yet: we've really pushed it past the limit here. This is also, I think, an excellent pedagogical tool to illustrate Bloom's theory pf the anxiety of influence.

Not to mention that the autofellatio guy is probably more interesting than his perfectly generic dragon sculpture.

>>7888048
Dude I'm a huge fan of Carl Jung and the need for symbols but fuck no. Autofellatio guy is not interesting at all. It's crude and shallow.

>>7888051
it's somewhat amusing as a self-reflecting symbol of a certain strain of contemporary art, the artist auto-fellating by proxy of the art object

still crude and shallow, but at least somewhat amusing

pinkos

>>7888076
Amusing doesn't imply symbolical interest

>>7876635
>>7876688
These are actually great

In my entire time of experience at a number of participating pediatric care facilities, talks with highly renowned medical doctors and neurotherapists, as well as countless hours of non-participant visiting on anonymous “anime” image boards such as this, I have really learned a lot about autism and my ability to gain any amount of personal experience with it, much more than I had bargained for, in fact. I have found myself rolling around the boards a few times here and there, addicted in a way, crashing a billion planes and became a bigger guy than Max Stirner or Frederich Nietzsche could ever hope to be, in this life or another, in this plane of existence, or any lower or higher one. That being said, I really think it is necessary and proper to bring up the white elephant looming in the black corner of the room. I think, personally, that the introduction of the theory that meaning and unmeaning are a dual relationship in a dichotomy that nearly never find themselves transcended nor passed over each other that it is completely certain that this level of autism surely would transcend the dichotomy just as much as Al-Karkei’s severely underrated “The Birds, The Frogs, & The Mosquitoes”, in which the periwinkle pursuit of principle and persistent processes put on by people and presentation as presented to us in the post-postmodern world is clearly contorted by a false sense of right brought by the rise of the left and the onslaught of the consistently overflow of degeneracy in society and its depreciation in decadence, thus easily and laymanly giving a clear example of the meaning/unmeaning dichotomy. In conclusion, it’s abundantly clear that anyone with any amount of regular brain function would realize how fucking stupid that sounds.
