snotty hipsters ruined books for me

i used to like reading shit but then i realized what company i was in and i started grossing myself out and i got up close to the people who i thought i shared my ideas with and it made me want to fucking vomit

now when i think about lit theory etc i feel like i am participating in something gross and need to stop it but on the other hand i don't want to just give up

Reading is a solitary activity.

Read, and just keep it to yourself.

You can enjoy books without talking to people. It's kind of their whole point.

Hipsters enamored literature for me.

I use to hate reading shit, but then I realised what company I could get and so began engrossing myself. I got up close to the people who had numerous opinions and ideas, and we fucked and drank till we vomited.

Now when I think about lit theory etc, I feel like I am participating in something hip and don't want to stop it. I just don't wanna give it up.

No. While Chopin has had the more overt influence on jazz, Debussy's influence is very clear. He's influenced, one way or another, everyone since him.

Easy example: use of non-diatonic scales, also mixing them with diatonic eg. Voiles.
