I didn't ask for these feels. As for the question and pic related: it reminds me of Seneca's De Brevitate Vitae. A usual candidate would be Stoner.

Hey there, I see you've decided to make a thread on /lit/. Here's some helpful questions for you to self-evaluate on whether your thread is a piece of shit or not:

1. If you are asking for recommendations based on genre/subject/content/a certain atmosphere or feel, have you tried searching other places beforehand, such as review sites, academic journals, university syllabuses, or, if you have any, friends?
2. Does your thread contain the name of any famous literary or philosophical figure(s) (or that figure's ideas) that has been shilled extensively on /lit/ in the past few months?
2a. If the answer is 'yes' to question 2, does your thread contain any extensive references to that literary/philosophical figure's works in order to provide a good jumping-off point for deeper discussion?
3. Does your thread contain any ambiguous buzzwords (e.g. "postmodernism", "Marxism", "nihilism") that would require a great deal of elucidation and scholarly analysis to come to a consensus as to the exact meaning of the word?
4. Is your thread related to the act of/motivation to/doubts about etc... reading books rather than the books themselves?
5. Is your thread related to religion?
5a. If the answer is 'yes' to question 5, do you reference any theological studies or actual religious texts in detail in your thread?
6. Do you use any terminology that is used frequently on /pol/?
7. If you are asking for an opinion about the quality of a specific book, is it a book that has been extensively shilled on /lit/ in the past few months?
8. Does your thread contain any actual words (as opposed to emojis or punctuation marks)?
9. Is your thread related to writing advice, and is not a part of a critique thread?
10. Does your thread consist of broad philosophical questions or diary entries that are in no way related to the actual reading of books?
11. Does your thread consist of only 1 sentence?

If you have answered 'yes' to any of the above questions (or if you have answered 'yes' or 'no' to question 1) - Congratulations! Your thread is a piece of shit. Kindly remove yourself (and your thread) from the board and contemplate what you are doing with your existence.

If not - Congratulations, Your thread may possibly be contributing to humanity's total written knowledge of the world. Keep doing what you're doing.
