Boston /lit/ Meetup

[Anonymous No.21351100]

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

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, Emerson's Transcendental Club. Discussion, critique, &c.

I'd love to attend but sadly I'm not going to alter my flights or arrange new flights just for that. I'd definitely be down for a california meetup.

A problem strikes me in that I don't actually read much of what /lit/ likes. Mainly japanese light novels and some sci-fi. So while I'd love to listen to people talk about /lit/, I couldn't actually contribute much.

OP you might get better results if you also proposed a book for discussion, something that a motivated person could read through between now and Saturday. Anything under 300 pages would be reasonable I imagine.

You don't know what it's like to live in central mass, bud. Ware is such a shithole, so many crackheads and methheads. There's barely any jobs near me, just all farmland. The closest gas station is 20 minutes away. The gym I go to is 30 minutes away.

I've applied to like ten places in Barre, Ware, and North Brookfield: I either get no response or answer. Also, they're literal crackheads, I like to call them bug people. The meth has done so much damage to their face they look like bugs. The Ware Walmart is always a good spot to gawk at all the meth creatures crawling from under their rocks.

I'm guessing you're younger in in college. By the time you're 30, reading books is a waste of time and life is dictated by making choices in face of scarcity. It's genuinely so disappointing, that reading books seems like a total joke. I used to humor people like you but if you went on ill just tell you point blank I don't read and I don't care. I can't even fake it about sports ball anymore. Why should I bother reading or doing anything whenever surviving another week or month is the only priority?

It's not just the walmart, it's the walgreens, domino's, dunkin donuts, local stores, the restaurants, etc. etc. Their faces are always contorted into a clockwise spiral, patchy beards, marbled skin, either too overweight or look extremely underfed, and always have that thousand yard stare.

Hey Chuds, remember when Boston was a decent Anglo-Saxon Protestant town, and then the runt of Ireland washed up on our shores in rags and with their hands out begging for our nation to clothe and keep them?

Btw, don't attend this meetup /lit/. It's a glowie operation to hunt down LitChuds with racist thoughts (which most of you suffer from).
