>>8754750
into the wild. its non fiction and kind of pleb but youl be dead in a few months so youl forget you even read it

>>8754750
Don't do it. Repent and believe in the Lord and you will have the light of life.

>>8754750
If you die, will you stop shitposting?

>>8754750
>in a few months
So you're an attention whore who will never do anything.

>>8754750
Read some Camus

Why not just do it now?

What will the point of reading a few books beforehand be?

>>8754936
probably gotta get their affairs in order

Id just write some short stories.

>>8754750

better leave something worthwhile behind or at least try to.

ive contemplated it before but the idea that i have potential pulled me out of it after a while.

>>8754939
>19 year old
>affairs
>suicide
LOL wut. When you are dead it's all over. Who cares. And what edge teen has "affairs" that take months to get in order. Please kill yourself too.

>>8754750
>committing suicide when there is still more to read
only thing keeping me alive is Bottom's Dream t bh and other /lit/ meme stuff I haven't read yet

There is a problem with your logic. When I was your age, I decided to do the same thing. I'm now 36 and still planning to off myself when I run out of great books. There are quite a fucking few great books out there.

>I'm committing suicide in a few months

Don't kid yourself, fag. You aren't actually going to do it. You just made this thread for attention. But if that's what gets you off, who am I to judge?

>>8755291
Is that how Trump and Bush got in?

lol?

Moody teenagers kill themselves and talk each other into killing themselves, why is this being portrayed like one of those Satanist cult mania things were?

why you do dis?

Why do you want to kill yourself? Do you know that you have value?

>>8754841
It would be extremely painful

>>8754750
>I'm committing suicide in a few months, so I want to read all the books I heard about but never got around to reading.
>Almost done Atlas Shrugged. It's entertaining, and not bad.

Wow you actually took my advice when I said kys

>>8755319
If only you knew how dumb you are.

>>8754750
Moby Dick
Book of the New Sun
Magic Mountain
AEgypt
In Search of Lost Time

>>8754750
are you friends with the anon that is dying from cancer?

>>8755323
It's just another teenagers thing, right, nothing new here. Suicide is just a normal stage of growing up, anyway.

>>8754750
The sooner the better. Nice blogpost by the way.

>>8754750
Read the Western Canon, then you have my permission to exit stage left into the abyss.

>Atlas Shrugged
What sinister conspiracy convinced Murricans that this book was
a classic? I don't think other countries are even aware of it. Seems disproportionately huge in the States.

Anyway, for your theme try Lord Jim, Moby Dick, The Odyssey, The Aeneid.

>>8754750
>Killing myself in a few months.

If you care about something enough to put it off till an opportune time, you care about something enough to live for it.

>>8755323
>why is this being portrayed like one of those Satanist cult mania things were?
It's the daily mail. They're trying to sell papers or get clicks or whatever the fuck.

The only time nobody cares about your death is when you are an unpublished 99%er. If you arent terminally ill you should farm that before you die

>I'm committing suicide

Makes fucking sense. Don't take Rand, go read something worthwhile, like Nietzsche, or Dostoyevsky (depending on what appeals to you)

>>8754750
As someone who has seriously considered suicide before, if death is really what you want then seeking out new knowledge is the worst thing for you. It will only lead to longing for more which in the long run will rekindle your passion for life. It's about as fucking horrible as it sounds.

Op would be a wise guy

DMT by Strassman

>>8757266
I have to ask, why is Atlas shrugged hated so much? It was interesting though some parts where pretty ridiculous. In the end what I took from it was, one should never stop trying to better themselves and help others who want to do the same.

>>8757735
Because it makes them feel disappointed and ashamed of themselves, and it implies or more than implies there should be no governmental welfare

They are not classics, but Tom Holt's The Walled Orchard and Alexander at the World's End are something to behold. Shame that he doesn't write like that anymore. Even the stuff he wrote as KJ Parker is lacking.

> It's entertaining, and not bad.

you kidding right? that book is gold

no wonder you are killing yourself, you dont understand a damn thing she is saying

>>8760000

>>8760000
fuck dig deeper
> reducing man to a dollar sign

Money represents a man's effort and the value society places on those efforts.
Society places more value on doctors than McDonalds workers


therefore a man's value to society is in the wealth that he has

she talks about that and how money is not the root of all evil but trade between men

>>8760050
>Money represents a man's effort and the value society places on those efforts
Sure it does pal

>>8760050
Not really, though. And I'm no commie.
If garbage men didn't exist, there would be widespread disease and chaos.
Don't reply saying "anyone could do that" either, because I'd love to see some yuppie wall street scumbag who was raised rich attempt to be a garbage man. They'd probably suicide within a month or less.

>>8755283
This is probably normal in Russia, including the flying whale.

READ THE HOLY BIBLE AND BE REBORN IN THE EYES OF THE LORD!

Do not focus on reading books, but on writing them. Your life story will probably serve as valuable literature in the years to come. People write their best stuff while in a state such as your own. If you are committed to killing yourself, at least make sure that your story serves as a warning to others, or that someone doesn't reinterpret your life for you after you're gone. This assures that you have a lasting change on the world, long after you pass. Reading is nice, but you won't be able to use that knowledge when you're dead. So head my words, and go write something marvelous.
We're counting on you, Anon.
Best of luck.

If you're procrastinating now, you're not going to do it later.

Which is good. Life is bretty gud 5/5 would live again.

>>8754750
idk how about the bible mate

>>8755319
Still trusting MSM ayy thought this board was supposed to be high Iq

>>8754750
I don't believe you. If you wanted to die, you should have done so instead of posting.

Also, gib sauce faggot

>>8760636
I agree with this statement.

But I also recommend reading all holy books known to man. The Bible, Koran, Tipitaka, etc. Maybe you will be "saved".

>>8754750
I've considered suicide before but I know i'm just gonna die anyway. I just decided to live 100% on my own terms, which I recommend one do suicidal or not. I highly recommend Siddhartha by Hesse, Zen Mind: Beginner's Mind by Suzuki, Letters from a Stoic by Seneca for starters. All very easy reads, you can finish all 3 by this time next week.
