Good thing I’m outrageously handsome. I got to spend my early twenties inhaling great books and writing, then read a couple self help and pick-up books, worked out a bit, and now I am slaying! Best of both worlds.

There is nothing wrong with Penguin, /lit/ just doesn't like the fact that they made their hobby accessible to normal people. The most important thing to look for is translators, and Penguin is hit or miss sometimes, but I suspect the majority here don't know the original languages anyway.

And in spite of all that humblebragging you didn't invalidate one word of what I said.

inb4 you double down by playing the "heh brah I wasn't trying to prove you wrong, I'm agreeing with you" card so you can stroke your ego some more while still trying to save face

>> No.12232311

>>12232248
Why would that be trying to save face? You said the meme advice in that book only works if you already look like Chad. I said “good thing I look like Chad.” It’s an open and shut case really; I don’t know what you’re going on about.

>> No.12232328

>>12232311
Because this post >>12231726 insinuated that all you have to do to not be "Cripplingly lonely" is read the meme advice in your meme book
you know you can always return to reddit or go back to twitter if you're so insecure that you feel the need to stroke your ego to strangers online

My point was that if between those two shelves all you could find to talk about was a pickup book and how not /lit/ learning how to get girls is, then you’re probably doomed to be a nofriends nolife bitter beta bitch. I wasn’t saying that by reading that book you’d suddenly have hordes of Instagram models crawling on their hands and knees and then swimming through the ocean coming all the way from the palaces of the princes in Dubai for whom they are cheap concubines just to be in your proximity. You just had a very particular and somewhat idiosyncratic interpretation of my posts.
