/lit/ - Literature

So? It's a text. Stop being a self-righteous prick and text/call her back.
This thread is pointless.

Aw man... conflicted feelings right there.

>Contact cute girl
>Go to party with her
>Pig party

look at it this way op, it's at least a step up from "ur gr8"

>>857005
>text her back
>get immediate reply
>"I kno, rite?" and Twilight reference
>myface

>get number of cute girl in park playing guitar
>get text from her
>"Your great"
>mfw I made this up, and remember that girls don't actually talk to me.

Fixed.

Funny, I've never heard of someone being made a eunuch by an apostrophe.

Who was playing the guitar?

ITT: Prescriptivist wannabe-grammarians

Guize, performing well on grammar tests in elementary school doesn't make you smart. Hating people who performed poorly does make you dumb.

Low education, yes. Low intelligence, no.

You're wrong and he's right.

Commas cause a pause in the sentence. Putting a comma in sentence "mfw I made this up, and remember that girls don't actually talk to me." creates an unnecessary and unsightly pause in the sentence. That sentence looks like shit with a comma.

HOW ON EARTH DO YOU GET A PHONE NUMBER FROM SOME RANDOM GIRL IN A PARK??

>>857102
Ahaha, have you tried talking?

>>857109
Well actually, yes

And by yes, I mean no.

Oh yeah.
The Twilight movie actually came out recently, didn't it..
Did any of you guize go out to see it? Ya know, out of curiousity. Or to troll..

>>857092

I wasn't commenting on that specific sentence, I was commenting on the statement "comma before an "and"", which implies that it's never okay to put a comma before the word 'and'.

>>857129
Pretty sure the guy was going for the same thing I was saying and not that it's never okay to have a comma before and. The comma before and in this instance is just unsightly.

>>857102

they will give it to you if you do no not stare incessantly at her breasts and don't stink

Chances are they will instead give you the number for the pedophile hot-line or something. Because women think that shit is funny for some reason.

>>857147
it is
not their fault you look like a pedophile
maybe you should try asking women instead of little girls?

>>857137
>The comma before, and in this instance, is just unsightly.

fixed.

>>857150

ahha ahha ahha. Such a clever response.

Stupid whore.

>get number of cute girl in park playing guitar

>she wants to fuck

What did you play OP?

>>857164
I'm guessing Green Day or some hipster faggotry you made up yourself.

>>857158
male here, actually
go take a shower and shave, put on clean clothes, THEN ask for a girls number. Hygiene works wonders

>get girl her nr
>go to party, have a good time, make out
>think she's immensely stupid, i can't date this girl very long
>she plans all sorts of things, let's do that, and that, and that, ...

Also, auto complete can fuck words up if you don't double check everything.

Also you could be write about auto complete.

I hate myself and want to die.

>>857457
Why do you have a man-face?

Unless...
(not that there's anything wrong with that)

>>857480
Eh, I didn't feel like looking for a picture of a terrified female.

Hang out in the book store next to your favorite genre and talk to the guys that browse in the area.

Mission Accomplished.

>girlfriend suggests we take turns reading a book aloud to each other because it's cute
>She reads, only three words at a time, often repeating or mispronouncing words
>Book is "Through the Looking Glass"

Fucking hell, took me 10 seconds to figure this out.

Enjoy being alone forever.

>>857522

Why would you agree to that? Seriously. Are you mentally retarded in some way?

>>857522
Could be worse, she may have wanted to read Twilight.

>>857004
At least she capitalized the first letter of her sentence, OPrick.

The question is why any of you have such low standards as to go out with an illiterate whore in the first place.

>>857635

Have fun being a whipped loser forever.

Jesus, what is wrong with you kids that you think you have to acquiesce to every whim a woman has to be in a relationship? There is this neat fucking word. It goes like this. "No."

Pretty neat huh.

Every time I fuck your mother. She squirts like a fire hose and it stings in the eyes.

>>857692

I think it's implied in that linguistically we require enough grammar to effectively communicate, even though it might not have to subscribe to certain outdated rules.

>>857457
Most girls I've known that considered reading a hobby usually stuck to the fantasy stuff, though I have one friend that I managed to get to try Lovecraft and some Dostoevsky. Now if I could meet someone that voluntarily read that stuff I would be all up ons.

>>857522
Have her try some Nabokov for intensely hilarious results.

>>857457
my last girlfriend loved twilight, so I feel your pain. any advice on where to meet girls like you? (other than /lit/, that is)

Right now, I'm in the middle of Pale Fire. I actually bought it while I was hanging out with a guy I was seeing at the time. He looked at the table of contents and told me it was a ripoff "because only the first 30 pages were the actual poem."

I honestly don't know if there's a particular place to "find" girls who like literature. I happen to be spending the summer with two other girls who are really into science and literature, and one sadvirgin guy. I mean, I go to bookstores and cafes occasionally, but most of the time I'm just around town, biking, shopping, just going about my usual business. Meh. Where are literary young men?

>>859438
pale fire is easily one of my favorite books ever. you're killing me here -__-

well, bookstores I guess. I'll occasionally read in coffeshops, although not that often. I was recently visiting a friend in NYC and in the midst of a book I couldn't put down, so I'd read it whenever I was on the subway or eating or whatever. so there's that.

>>859513
Ha ha, this gives me hope I might run into someone who has actually read Nabokov someday.

I also love art museums. My favorites are the American Folk Art museum in NYC and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. They're usually pretty empty when I end up going, though. But yeah, that's all the tips I can think of.

>>859540
art museums, that's a good idea. at the very least you could meet girls who value thinking. do you have AIM by any chance? I usually find myself asking that in cancerous narcissistic "rate me" threads, but you seem like you'd be interesting to talk to. mine's mogwaiinthesky if you wanna chat.
