Face it, /lit. You wish you were this guy. Yeah, sure, you say that you're all "real" intellectuals and that all his posturing and superficial analysis makes him worse than you. "I actually read the books and this guy probably doesn't read!!" you whine and cry. But I doubt you've read as much as him, even with all the clear bullshit in his reviews. And deep down, you wish you could have the identity of the handsome, 6'2"+ well-read, cultured man. You wish you had the confidence to pull off this guy's personality, but in reality, you're all introverted bitch boys who read alone so that you can pretend to yourself "I'm misunderstood!" "I'm a genius they just don't know it!!" when really, you're doing something that everyone in the world can do.

I really dont see how people can find him attractive. He looks like a shiny Randy Johnson. But anyway he's obviously well read and it is probably difficult to say substantial and intellectual things about difficult works when talking into your computer by yourself.

If you genuinely think he's handsome then you must be one ugly motherfucker.
As for the rest of this guy's shtick, he is quite clearly a pseud.
He might be somewhat well read but it does not matter, as he cannot live without showing the world just how "down with it" he believes himself to be. He will never publish a great work and will likely struggle with this for the entirety of his life. He wants what he cannot have and he will never have it, rest assured.

He is what happens when you pump the romanticism of "the starving artist", directly into the soft heads of semi-intelligent people. They become self-aware just enough to realise they are not as stupid as Joe The Plumber, but too self-obsessed and petty to not want the whole world to acknowledge their "superior" taste/intellect/whatever.
I just watched one of his videos and I can guarantee he was raised in a comfortable middle class home, "privileged", although I hate the term. The only tragedy he has ever experienced in his comfy little life is the death of a parent or a pet. He wants to feel hard done by, though. He wants his life to resemble a Russian novel, he wants you, the viewer, to believe that he lives a down-low, edgy, hyper-aware "literary lifestyle"... But, he does not and he never will.

I wouldn't want to be him If I was legless.

Speaking of legless... peep his Perec video. There's a part where he walks dryly down a set of stairs dragging his bulky kmart sneaks wearing floods painted on his peglegs. Dude looks okay from the waist up, but is a puny fuck below. I kek'd heartily.

How so? He looks like the caricature of a semi-handsome man. He knows this and overcompensates by dressing and grooming in a particular way so as to mask his deep rooted insecurities.
Swept back hair, leather jacket, poorly groomed (but groomed nonetheless) facial hair, exaggerated purposeful hand movements, speech that lacks any understanding of the text he is spouting about... and I already touched on the rest. This isn't always bad, some people can pull it off... he can't.
It all boils down to him essentially, trying too hard to be cool. In this case, "cool" to him, means fitting the stereotype character from some Dostoevsky novel.

This guy is not classically handsome in any way. He is not handsome in any way unless you yourself are ugly... which probably explains why his shtick doesn't work so well.
When you are handsome you can do just about anything and it will look graceful. It attracts.
I am willing to bet money that the only chicks he attracts are girls that have been bullied, or are otherwise average, boring social outcasts who hide underneath the facade of being a reader or an author or my personal favorite "I'm an artist", whatever the fuck they it's cool to be nowadays.
He is a 6/10 at best, you have my word.

Nah, I really don't respect the trendiness. The hair flipping, the drinking of some kind of special chilled wine that he feels compelled to recommend to all (usually the type of person who feels a deep sense of satisfaction when they 'introduce' something to someone else, even if that someone else isn't at all interested), and then comes the life advice...

Then again I don't watch his vids.

I'd rather be an attractive, well-read woman than a handsome, well-read man though. The man will still have a lot of troubles in his life, even if he's confident and tall. The woman will live a relatively cushy and worry-free life, and have a much easier time finding a partner who fits her taste.

Okay so I just watched his Journey To The End of the Night, Ask The Dust and Perec reviews and like this guy >>8425956 I'm fairly sure he hasn't read most of the books he reviews. For someone who's supposed to be (or thinks he is) an intellectual he certainly is vapid as fuck.
