/lit/ - Literature

Fuck off faggot.

>>9328682
Is writing the last resort for uglies beyond salvation? Is literature the entertainment for ugly people?

How sad is that? Isn't that a humongous insult to one of humanity's most intellectually sophisticated activities?

>>9328676
and

I'd swipe right for a young Carson McCullers

No. A good writer is forged in struggles. Otherwise why not live a life instead of writing about it?

Life is a privilege for mediocre people - Cioran.

Also, having years of wisdom to form actually genuine insights and articulate them in a way that doesn't sound incredibly cringe does take age.

Now kindly get the fuck off our board, normie scum.

ps.
>caring about something as superficial as how someone looks, rather than what they say
You must be a woman

only if he works out and lose that baby fat on his face and drop the dorky stare

>>9328705
>>9328699
also a better haircut

>>9328702
>Otherwise why not live a life instead of writing about it?
That's like asking why watch a movie when you can live a life.

Because you can do both, dumbass. Life feeds literature. Literature enriches life. I might be a faggot, woman, or anything, but I am also a better writer than you will ever be.

>>9328714
Someone who is satisfied will not be compelled to ask the big questions. The more unsatisfied they are, the more motivated they are to search for the answers. Now fuck off back to plebbit, normie.

>>9328676
this is why women are not welcome on this board

>>9328718
Why do you think being handsome makes someone intellectually satisfied?

Getting dates on Tinder is crazy easy though, I'm an average looking, 5'9 guy and I've got some 30 or so dates with decent looking girls, some even messaged me first.

>>9328729
Why do you think getting laid doesn't make someone satisfied? It's no great secret that most great thinkers were seriously cucked.

If you are underestimating the degree to which loneliness can warp and focus the mind then you must be a woman because women just don't get this. (Spoilers: It's because they have free attention whenever they want it).

>>9328737
>average looking
Many writers fail to jump over this "threshold" though.

>>9328713
Yep. Here's a better picture

>>9328761
Approved.

name?

>>9328737
That means you are a normie. You have no idea how hard what you described is for some men.

>>9328764
I'm definitely not a normie, I spend most of my day on 4chan but I can emulate normie behavior very well.

>>9328763
Albert Camus. Handsome, womanizing Frenchie but mainly a great writer. Quite jealous tbqh

>>9328781
I know a handsome French author that's in his 30s now, or 20s, but I can't remember his name. France seems to produce beautiful people.

>>9328781
>>9328797

Fucking fags, if you're so gay why don't you suck my dick

>>9328687
No, you're thinking of comedy.

>>9328764
I know for a fact those men simply haven't tried. not that anon but im average looking, dont work out, spend most of my time on 4chan, masturbating or smoking weed, have few girl friends and ive gone out with plenty of matches from tinder. lost my virginity thanks to it too. i was feelposter literally a year ago, now I can't believe my past stupidity. if you shitpost on /lit/ you are wittier than the average guy, period. it's self-hatred and hesitance that holds you back bruh bruh

>>9328847
t. Average looking 6 ft white man

>>9328698

>>9328854
yep. center of the bell curve for 4chan imo

The fact of the matter is that most people aren't particularly good-looking. Why do you expect authors to be any different?

>>9328883
If anything, it seems to me that most popular American writers have been good-looking.

>>9328676
I don't know but I'll roll around in a bed with Melville.

>>9328944
delet tis

>>9328941
For example?

All those bestselling female romance writers are hideous.

>>9328761
I don't think Camus was that tanned.

How isn't Mishima good-looking? He was a male model.
Although, he wouldn't use Tinder.

What's a good way to open conversations with tinder girls? It seems you have to be very brief, but also very effective.

Mainly out for dick though.

>>9329828
>playful/teasing joke about her bio
>ask her what she's doing
>tell her basics about yourself
>ask her to move the convo to Facebook or Snapchat or what have you
after a couple of hours ask her when she's available to grab a drink with you

Guys on Tinder are fucking bellends, if you're even slightly above average emotional intelligence you shouldn't have any problem getting a girl interested in you. Don't comment on her looks to often, she gets that all the time and probably unmatches. Don't flip-flop with your answers and be confident and honest instead of sucking up.

>>9328941
Lol, I'm sure you won't find that surprising if you think about it for a couple minutes.

>>9328797
Camus was Algerian retard

>>9329836
Shame that Buckley schooled him so hard

>>9328676
Rimbaud was a handsome guy

>>9328676
I'm pretty, OP

>>9328685
>>9328694

I would let Kerouac on my road if you know what I mean...
I'd let him into my dharma bum if you catch my drift...
I'd let him go subterranean if ya feel my vibe...

I'd let him suck on my big sur ya geddit?

Veronica Roth incoming.
Your assumptions are false, OP.

The problem with writers is not they are ugly. It's they don't care about looking-good. I see tons of seemingly meh looking writers that could easily turn into 8,9,10/10 with a bit of grooming and working out.

Case in point. This was Veronica Roth before she decided to groom herself, lose some weight, and lose that hideout haircut.

>>9331222

She's not even wearing make-up and that's like a crime in women's world.

>>9329773
He had an eye for the ladies.

Those are some big ass fish.
10/10 would eat.

Did you draw that stache one? Kek

>>9333491
one eye on the bitches, one eye on the streets
sartre was a real mothafuckin nigga

>>9333482
Pa.

Yes.

Why are we so ugly?

Ugliness is a specter in the valley. A cold attribute of the world that hides at the peak of the mountains. We are the wolves of earth's bounty in beauty and we strike hard. We strike fast. We strike.

Pa?

Yes.

Nothing.

He spat.

>>9333494
Hemingway caught them all, sorry.

>>9328856
Sexy as fuck

>>9334297
*yourself

>>9334558
"your self" works too

"yourself" is a reflexive pronoun

"your self" is, literally, your "self." A noun "self" modified by a possessive pronoun "your"

t. Not Him

Things went sideways when he decided he wanted to look like the owner of a comic book store for the rest of his life

>>9328676

>>9328758
You're ridiculous

>>9334597
>>9334558
If we translate the two sentences into French we see the difference clearly.

Kill yourself.
Tue-toi.

Kill your self.
Tue ton soi.

>>9334630
She was cute before

>>9334597
Nah

>>9331340
B-but she looks like ten times more a QT here, anon

>>9334614
What the fuck

>>9335182
Cute!

>>9330096

He did no such thing. Buckley went so completely buttmad after Vidal called him a cryptofascist, that he effectively proved himself to be an even bigger homosexual than a guy who actually banged men.

>>9331602
looks like a schoop. I can tell.

if i read this will i be ready for Hegel?

>>9334614
What the fucking hell, he was a cutie
You're not wrong with the "owner of a comic book store" description

>>9334630
Christ! And they say Russian women are beautiful. Heh.

>>9337720
>was

he stayed basically handsome for the rest of his life.

>>9334795
Yah

>>9328676
>Where are writers ugly?

usually in the face, i imagine. and sometimes, in the case of John Green, the brain
