/lit/ - Literature

[Anonymous No.11846858]

Yesterday's nap lasted longer than I expected. When I woke up it was already dark, so I decided to stay in the dorm and finish my assigned reading from The Illiad. It's good, but I don't understand what makes it so great. I had to sit through an entire chapter where they just name different ships and where they came from. Why is this quality “literature” but my stories keep getting rejected for publication?

Thinking about this depressed me and I lost motivation to read. So I brewed some tea and mixed it with whiskey (this is the pro of having been NEET until Princeton finally accepted me, I'm already 23). I ended up getting too drunk though and passed out without finishing the reading.

I woke up in a panic today but got to class just in time. I don't want to waste my precious time at Princeton, so I try to never be a minute late. In my seminar some pseuds spent the whole time pontificating. You could tell they hadn't done the reading. Typical Chad behavior, thinking they are too good to study. I bet their fathers all bought their ways into this school.

Other than that today has been okay. There aren't any Sorority Sallies at the cafe now, so I can sip my coffee and read in peace. Trying to catch up on yesterday's assigned reading before my afternoon nap. Hopefully I don't oversleep this time.

You read too many novels written in the 1920s. Nobody thinks this way anymore.

Your pseudo-intellectual style isn't really suited for modern day stories.

I mean, someone living in the late 1800s, during a time of real political revolution, would begin questioning why an ancient manuscript is so important.

But a person living in 2018 who has gone to public school and college would probably not genuinly question that. He'd understand "why" but maybe reject it completely.

Reads just like a more pretentious version of some tumblr/instagram/facebook bitch cataloging the contents of her meaningless days for attention, right down to the constant depictions of consumption particularly foodstuff to replace personality with type and brand.

To be fair, the oxford fag might be the dictionary definition of psued. His snobbery is so bad due to the fact that he praises it as some sort of last beacon of intelligence meanwhile he is posting on a site where people legitimately think that jews are behind everything
