/lit/ - Literature

That's a horrific tattoo. That red outline looks like a skin infection.

>>9061516
I'm gonna get this:
Where we're standing right now, in the ruins in the dark, what we build could be anything.
tattooed somewhere, at some point. Well, realistically, I'll just carve it into my leg with an exacto knife, but...
fuck it. I'm doing it now. Wish me luck dudes.

>>9061535

If you don't deliver, everybody will know you're a bitch.

>>9061568
give me a couple minutes, jesus christ

>implying this is the greatest tat ever

>>9061584
its been more then a couple of a minutes

>>9061626
okay, so I sorta ran out of room.

>>9061631
Damn your blood coagulates fast

I really wanted a Trystero tattoo for a while ngl

Then I realized that I shouldn't do it if I ever want to get buried in a Jewish cemetery. Also the fact that every memelord and their mothers has one.

>>9061646
Yeah. I'm gonna try to fit the rest in, then I gotta smear alcohol in the whole thing.

>>9061535
>>9061631

>>9061710

>>9061614
>a random bunch of books discussed on r/books

>>9061631
Include me in the screencap

>>9061631
you're going to regret this when you're no longer underage

>>9061631
You are an actual retard

>>9061805
Jokes on you. I'm 26. Don't worry anon. It'll be completely gone in 6 months, tops.

>>9061535
>>9061631
Is this what the literary lifestyle does to you?

>When they were introduced, he made a witticism, hoping to be liked. She laughed extremely hard, hoping to be liked. Then each drove home alone, staring straight ahead, with the very same twist to their faces. The man who’d introduced them didn’t much like either of them, though he acted as if he did, anxious as he was to preserve good relations at all times. One never knew, after all, now did one now did one now did one.

>>9061829
No. A lot of psychological problems does this to you. Don't worry anon.

>>9061805
>>9061812
Before anyone get's all up in arms, >>9061631
isn't shit. In a week, the cut's will be closed. In 3 weeks, the scabs will be completely gone. In a month, nobody but I will know whatever was written there.
>implying I'd cut for the first time on fuckin' /lit/.

>>9061813
Why are you still melodramatic enough to do these things at that age?

>>9061898
alcohol

>>9061631
move onto the other leg I guess

>>9061631
the madman

>>9061614
LMAO

>>9061614
holy fuck

>>9061662
Using antiseptics directly on the wound will just make it heal slower. With superficial cuts like that it's better to just wrap it with something clean and let it heal

Autistically comfy thread, lads.

>>9061631
>Cutting
Lmao next time do it properly and extinct yourself, you fucking pathetic cunt

>>9061631
oamling at your life rn t b h

There is no proof that this is you, you could have found this online or gotten one of your faggot friends to do it.

Time stamp please

>>9061516
Pathetically earnest, desu.

>>9061631

I kinda wanted to get "This too shall pass" somewhere on my body, inner arm maybe. I like the phrase a lot.

>>9062494
that song is good i cant listen to it though its a bit too depressing

>>9061516
Not /lit/ related, but I always wanted a tattoo of the lyrics:

"I can't believe how strange it is to be anything at all"

From ITAOTS, until /mu/ made that song a meme.

Thanks, /mu/

>>9061631
>Let's cutting boys

>>9061614
Cringe.

>>9061898
Faggotry.

>>9061631
EDGY!!!

>>9061843
Wow that is bad

>>9061843
this is dfw isn't it

>>9062680
yes that is the point. The rest of the book is in service of blowing this style of writing to shreds

>>9062522
From the same album I always wanted the lyrics "Dont hate her when she gets up to leave" thats my favorite song and its always hit me hard. I like the lyric you chose you like mine?

>>9062736
Real good lyric, that whole album is great.

>>9061631
HE DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID ITTTTTTTTTTTTTT

>>9062003
Snorted

>>9061631

>>9061516
i never no if i could date someone like this. on one hand they are reading which means theyre ahead of the general normies. on the other hand they waste their time reading trash. what are your thoughts?

>>9062702
"an extremely compressed history of postindustrial life," or whatever the title was

>>9061631

>>9062494
I did as well after hearing this song. But I'm not worthy of a tattoo until my body is like I want it to be. That, and the desire to get a tattoo is also a passing feeling. Then again, it would be a nice reminder.

Maybe I'll just get a bracelet or ring.

>>9061631
Holy shit, you're a retard.

>>9062494
>>9062501
>>9063133
Please tell me you're talking about this song.

https://youtu.be/-kPkkqxsjIY

>>9063147
what else bigboy

>>9063161
Google "this too shale pass song" and be moderately surprised that the best one is the least listened to.

>this thread again
It's pathetic enough that the tattoo has become a meaningless item of petit-bourgeois fashion, but to permanently ink yourself with text is in abysmally bad taste. It's telling and deeply ironic that the modern code of the tattoo is "what it means to me," as a unique expression of personal initiative, when in premodernity the tattoo, as with scarification, circumcision, and lip rings, only signified your otherness insofar as it marked you as a member of your tribe.

>>9061631
what a time to be alive

>>9061631

>>9061528
It's a brand new tattoo dumb dumb, that's why it looks odd.

>>9061631

Just get a real tattoo friendo.

That probably won't even scar, but you know that.

>>9061631
It's like 2003 all over again

>>9061631
my sides

>>9061843

this is about as halfdeep you need to write to be successful

>>9061813
are you dumb? my friend carved his name and a girl's name into his hand and it stayed over two years

>>9061662
Well anon, were you able to do it?

>>9064541
Depends on how deep is the cut, the one's in the picture don't seem that deep

>>9064578
I think he's still "smearing" the alcohol in

>>9061631
>white people

>>9061516

Yes, unless you're a vegan
