/lit/ - Literature

[Anonymous No.1366074]

So, have you ever carried your elitist 4chan persona over into the real world?

On campus I was arguing with a friend over whose better: David Bowie or Avenged Sevenfold. I told him that he'd have be slightly retarded to think Avenged is anywhere near Bowie, Bowie has more talent in his finger, and the only people who like Avenged Sevenfold are 13 year old kids and manchildren getting into heavier music for the first time.

A couple of his other friends overheard me say that. Irritated, they walked over and engaged in the conversation, so I was bringing the smack down on all three of their impressionable asses.

May have lost a couple friends for a month or whatever, but it had to be done. Plus I looked like an elitist dick in front of strangers, which was awesome.


Surely you've had experiences where you were an elitist dick in public, right?

Is this a real story? Bowie vs. Avenged Sevenfold. You didn't lose a friend, it's more like you picked some lice out of your pubic hair and crushed them. And when it comes to books or theater, I am always an elitist prick which is why I regularly come on /lit/

i'm actually a pretty nice guy in real life and respect other people opinions even though i may disagree with them myself

[yrbxta No.1366090]

no but i've been rejected before for my 'elitist' taste.

bad times, bad times.

no, that was just the excuse they used. they hate you because you're you

[Anonymous No.1366094]

it's like for a minute there I thought I had clicked /mu/ instead of /lit/

then I realized the only difference between them is that you fucks don't jack your peckers off to IAOTS, just books that make you look like an intellectual

YOU DON'T NEED TO POST THIS THREAD ON EVERY FUCKING BOARD, YOU PIECE OF SHIT!

[Anonymous No.1366097]

I generally stay out of it irl. I don't have wikipedia or thesaurus.com for backup. Not to mention backspace, that's pretty handy too.

Anyway, sounds like OP is a bullshitting child telling us about his lame fantasies, he probably got schooled by the a7x tards and is sat on his chair, butthurt and thinking of what he should have said. If this isn't true, any example of how you layed down your brutal ownage? You're permitted to paraphrase.

oh lol...

All the freaking time, apparently. I don't mean to, but I am fairly sure that I come off as a ridiculously elitist prick a large proportion of the time. Condescending, etc. I don't think it's deserved of course - having a critical standpoint, knowing what you like and don't like, doesn't make you an elitist, and I very rarely actually say that something is bad and that a person is wrong for enjoying it - but nearly everyone disagrees with me so there it is.

>>1366094
what is with this assumption that we only read books that make us look like an intellectual, for the specific reason that we want to seem intellectual

that's some ol bullshit

i read books that are interesting. lord knows anyone looking at me would know i'm not trying to be cool.

It's just that this is relevant on every board on 4chan, really. Well, save for /po/, i dont' know how you can be elitist there.

[Anonymous No.1366195]

for fuck's sake. even if you are an elitist (as if that was something to strive for), believe me, David fucking Bowie is not high art. It's shit-tier popmusic made to get teenaged girls wet and spending money. The fact that he's out-lived his sell-by date and gets middle aged women wet instead now is neither here nor there. If you'd said Corelli or Coltrane or something then at least you'd be prick who knew what he was talking about, instead of just being a prick.

i mean it's true that bowie is not high art, but the fact that something is pop does not make it artistically worthless or invalid

OP didn't say he was. But he is a dick for shitting on his friend's tastes just to fulfill his ego.

In a big party i was arguing with my punk friend (only with him) about the political system of my country, he told me that the state sucked and anarchism was the only solution for the political problems of this country, it was more complex than that (he's the only punk inclined into libertarian ideas).

I told them about the problems of my country (Chile) were part of the global system problems and only in long-duree (long duration, structures of braudel) It wasn't the fault of one person or the modern state, destroying everything isn't a solution.

So their friends (specially a girl) asked me a lot about the best political system and the solutions. I told them that keynesianism was a good solution, with a minimal state with interventions in the most problematics sides of the economic and society.

Everyone fighted with me, except my punk friend (the only guy with a brain in that group) he defended me and told them to shut the fuck off. I kept talking with that girl and we had a reaaally great night, if you know what i mean, now she's a good friend.

this happened like two years ago

Pfft. The only time you won't see me reading Ulysses while listening the oeuvre of Stockhausen is when I'm discussing Czechoslovak New Wave films with my comrades.

We didn't have sex, it was just a good night of cuddling, love, alcohol and nonsense conversations.
