/lit/ - Literature

[Anonymous No.2143851]

I hate this board. No one ever wants to talk about books. It's all OMG you still read that young adult shit or some other stuck up bullshit. Books are fun regardless of who the book was meant for. I love The Giver, a book I read when I was like 10, and I'd read it again if I could find a copy. Fuck the haters. I read Star Trek and Star Wars books cause I like the settings and characters. I don't expect mind blowing literature. Just fun.

Would be better with "I AM THE 99%" at the end.

I liked The Giver too, though I was too young to realize that the boy died at the end. Shit made lots more sense when I read BNW later.

Everybody reads art because they find it fun, you're not special in that regard. It's also fun to shit on bad art, and everyone loves doing it. If you happen to like art that's considered bad, weathering people shitting on it is just part of the program.

Shouldn't it be "live within your means", not "live beneath your means"?

Not really. The whole protest and everyone involved is a joke.

Every image against Occupy Wall Street that I've seen has been either a classic example of missing the point, or has been so bad that it's practically making a point FOR the protesters.

That's the cliche, but in this case, it's probably, "Live beneath your means so you have some leftovers tucked away for your kids and old age."

Kudos for D&E completing the derailing of a thread that didn't have much of a point to begin with.

4chan is a place for bitter elitists with narrow tastes to talk about things they love. This is how it has ALWAYS been. /lit/ was born out of the desires of people from various other boards to talk about books.

Do you have any idea the going rate for a quality escort? If I were a successful technician I would condition my unplanned bitch daughter to near-deprivation so I can continue getting my jimmies.

He doesn't die.
Apparently, "Messenger," a companion novel, reveals that he and the baby survived.

This is according to Wikipedua, however, so take it however you want. I read The Giver years ago and I've never read Messenger, so I don't claim to be an expert.

That makes me a little happier, I guess. I'm not sure how I feel about that book having a sequel, though.

I'll have to look that book up some day--thanks for letting me know about it.

[Anonymous No.2143942]

I don't think it's a direct sequel, from what I've read it's just set in the same world. There's another book, "Gathering Blue," that's set in that world also, I think.

This is a literature board, not a book board. So take your textbook download requests, write-my-essay-and-give-me-a-handjob requests, your stupid OMG Harry Potter is really good and GOT has themes opinions elsewhere. I've heard /b/ is always looking for more buttmad idiots to troll.

Oh the irony.
