What do you hope to get out of coming to /lit/ when chanology's adolescent culture is antithetical to all things literary?

Seriously.

I come here to chew bubblegum and get ideas for new books to read. And I'm all out of bubblegum.

I'm just here for the laughs, the giggles, the stifled chuckles, the bellowous belly laughs that follow uproariously from a classic gag; laughs of all kinds, superlative and slight, trailing and short, whooping and snorting and sharp exhales. And yes, even the little snickers and chortles too. Really, i'm just here for the laughs.

Haven’t you seen the news lately, tinfoil?
I started coming here cause I had just learned about the concept of the literary canon and the memes and threads were easy way to learn. Now that I’ve been here a while, I mostly just look for people who seem like they know something and hit them with a terrible take so they’ll teach me something I wouldn’t learn otherwise.

>hit them with a terrible take so they’ll teach me something I wouldn’t learn otherwise.

Alternatively, if you want to learn something, read a fucking book. You're just filled with self-referential signifiers otherwise.

Chans suck but they're really the only alternative we have to the sclerotic liberal culture of mainstream literature.
If I owned a coffee shop or bar and had any friends irl who read as much as me we'd have something but as it stands right now pretty much anyone who has read the books I've read has also had a cathedral (hate the term) adept shoving a very specific and strained ideological interpretation down their throat.
I have like twelve friends irl that I can talk to openly, all but one of them are completely uninterested in literature, the one who is only reads nonfic and theory.
