Boston /lit/ Meetup Group

[Anonymous No.12445687]

We're having a /lit/ meetup in Boston.

Email bostonliterature at gmail if you're interested & I'll give you the place & time.

>Why?

If you've been to university organizations, reading groups, or hung out in a cafe up here, you've noticed the stifling eggshell-walking culture. And also that no one reads /lit/ books.

>What?

Something in the vein of Ben Franklin's Junto. Discussion, critique, &c.

The prior /lit/ DC meetup gathered at the Irish Channel restaurant earned the distinction for evacuating the entire restaurant when a zaftig magenta haired woman? Flew into a spittle flecking incandescent rage upon a non-/lit/ patron confiding in her the Irish Channel idiom, "give 'er the pickle and the spear," which she was apoplectic and not at all amused to learn, referred to the Irish Channel restaurant's signature spear shape pickles that came with most of their entrees, that when tossed upon a freshly shagged female bar patron, completed the duties included in the giving of the pickle and the spear. Unfortunately, to give the pickle and the spear usually implies a heavily inebriated patron ghoulishly fornicating in an Irish Channel restaurant bathroom stall with a notably disheveled and blacked out woman. You didn't want any part of the pickle and spear giving and no one really wins in it. But it's part of Irish Channel pub life and no one dies. But that magenta haired harpie had never heard of anything so horrible, which is what she attested to all of us, and inquisited every booth seated customer whether they thought "rape was funny, haha?" Her feigned "haha" laughter made more than one drunk accidentally laugh, which stirred greater and yet more shrill eruptions of spittle and invective and Wiccan curses and phone documented excoriations that we'd all love to forget. Why is it we're going back to the Irish Channel restaurant?

Organizer of the DC meetups here, (dclitmeetup@gmail) the first two meetups were good, nobody cared about the threads and just ignored us. These types of threads have lately begun to draw a lot of attention since the Boston ones started though. When I started to organize for the next DC meetup (Feb 2) a bunch of random people came into the thread to troll/shitpost which is where that pasta is from. We haven't gone to Irish Channel yet (we went to Russia House previously) but it's on track to happen on the 2nd because enough people have already emailed to express interest.

As the DC meetups Organizer I would again encourage people who reek of weed to do the right thing and slink off to some alley or urban canal and toke themselves to contentment and not pollute a literary space with their cannabinoidal epiphanies, digressions and tangents. This is not "Family Guy," this is a literary club meeting to discuss literature and literary culture. Its not a drug den to chill with your bros and scratch yourselves and chortle and belch into your headsets at other dystopic morons networked into the same electronic tomfoolery. Its about books and reading them and loving and hating them and the discussions there of henceforth. To the vaper, the cart sipper, the epic dabber and the surreptitious surgeon tweeting a lil jay bird by the glistening, shimmering retention pond behind the Bariatric Surgery Center, to them I say count yourselves lucky Trump has postponed your dates with our ropes. But that day will come, long before any singularity and basic income can swoop in to save you. There will be no android buddy ferrying your bong and soda to you atop your gaming throne. No, there will only be a great reckoning for all Cannabinoidal chattel, hoisting you each to the lamp's light, ours cheers notably hoarse and restrained from having been at this for a great many hours and now nearly grown bored of it. Maybe we'd leave you up there as a decoration for righteousness or maybe we'd drop you into a nearly suffocated heap and let the gathered children practice melee on you.

The /lit/ meetups at the Irish Channel pub have proven the most fruitful ground for a foot stalker, a person who makes pictures of women's feet his quarry. I needn't even register attendance at one of these meetups, eavesdropping distance vastly exceeding their social vetting which I surely wouldn't pass. No one likes a well used racial slur anymore. It's an art. I don't really need much. Their feet will do and once I hear a name its sometimes astonishingly enough, but often they'll read aloud various account names for different pictographic and socio-media library services upon which every women religiously uploads her media. It has become like a chore for them. Every day I must photograph my breakfast and shoes. And my feet in the sand or by the pool are also typical patterns observed in 99% of women. Women advertise their feet to the world with great regularity. They know exactly what they're doing so I feel no shame in "stalking." But make no mistake it can truly be a hunt. Sometimes the damsel remains obscure and quiet and requires a bit of continued observation and tracking to understand where she might store pictures of her feet. Vacation photos? A yoga group? Events? Male companions? All can prove helpful in locating pictures of heels, peep-toes let alone sandals, flip-flops or unabashedbarefootedness. I can proudly say that every woman who has attended a /lit/ meetup in Washington DC has exquisite, magnificent, painful to behold adorable round and soft, languid and athletic, curvy, archy, supple, wrinkly, I could just die in your feet, just shrink myself and roll myself to the base of your toes, to where I could be squished, crushed and compacted into my constituent goos by your toes scrunching and flexing into me. I could say that such a fate would be an honor, a delight, a pleasure beyond comprehension for any of the DC /lit/ meetup's female attendees. They are not merely healthy women but women who take great pride in their hygiene and social presentation. The whole world may go to hell but their tootsies will always look perfect. These women are helping to spiritually realign our nihilistic society and it starts with their pretty feet.

FYI, the HOA sent me a letter about the noise from last time so if I host the after party again, we gotta do something differently. I know everybody likes the fire pit, though.

Also, please, ladies and gentlemen, if you need to vape can you just do it outside or in the restroom? It's immensely difficult to have a serious conversation when every proud vandyke, goatee and neckbeard this side of the WH40K timeline are symphonic-ally clouding out the entire pub, to the point where the bartenders can barely see through the fog the customers' hands waving credit cards or holding empty glasses. Patrons whose social roles had long been to police such misbehavior found themselves long confounded upon their sudden enclosure by opaque, slightly watermelon and pine zephyrs that had them dumbfounded, knowing rather immediately that these clouds were clearly not from a fire but neither damp and so neither from a fog machine. As people moved about the Irish Channel restaurant they'd part and shift and collide clouds, waving futile paths through the thickly hanging blankets. And still the swarthy /lit/izens toked and exhaled on, some attempting a vaper's etiquette demonstration by expelling a volcanic plume of vapor into the ceiling and briefly away from everyone, hanging in the air as a canopy for only a minute or two before it blended with the mottled floor-gracing cloud layers. Another jettisoned his post-prandial vapor from his nostrils, conjuring for a dramatic few seconds the satanic visage of a saturnic satyr.

[Anonymous No.12460025]

Its with deep regret that I inform the Boston /lit/ Meetup Group we have been banned from all Clover Food Lab locations. Our dank memery and semi-synchronized group flossing were not appreciated and proved no match for their especially Semitic legal representative who was adamant and spoke only in nasally intoned kvetching, like most of what he says sounds like a question until he wraps it up in a declarative. He said we were not just disorderly but a threat to their customers and their employees. Justin photographing the feet of women customers apparently didn't do us any favors. They're also blaming a plumbing issue on our group and are holding over our heads a bill for damages and repairs if we ever return to a Clover Food Lab. I'm afraid to do any more bookings for our group because there's some hooligans who are ruining it for the rest of the literary community.

what do you think Rupi Kaur's feet smell like? and do you think you could train her to approach a London Jewess' level of Femdom proficiency? Indian girls never realize their potential as femdom godesses. they either stay as foot fetishists or become toilet godesses but never dwell in pain or humiliation or incest.

Rupi Kaur would make such a divine cuckoldress. Can you imagine the poetic barbs she'd cast your way as she brandished the Brahmin's phallus and tantrically taunted you?
