i would ask why you stopped by a book store to pick up a book you've read but judging from your answer of what its about you obviously haven't. you read the spark notes description of it online and it said its about "god and stuff" so now you feel you have a deep understanding of it

>> No.773951

wrong response, op. you should've said something clever in hopes of getting laid by those two cute gals.

not really clever- but i would've said, "its about a young man who meets two cute girls at a bookstore who both fall madly in love with him. their friendship is tested but they both learn to share this man's affection." at worst you'll never see them again. at best you could ask them to hang out and not be a doofus.

Hi, femanon here. So my girlfriend and I were in the bookstore the other day, having a fun debate about which translation of the Iliad was best (she swears by Lattimore, but rereads the Fitzgerald occasionally, I find that Fagles is a nice compromise) when we see this dorky guy grabbing a copy of The Brothers Karamazov. To tease my friend (who got her BA in Russian lit), I ask him what it's about.

He says "Morality and God's existence."

Seriously, that's what he said. I almost busted up laughing. Dorky guys are one thing, but dorky guys trying to act like everyone they say will go over your head are the fuckin' worst.

So my friend, completely deadpan, says, ""Ooooo must be a advanced read like TWILIGHT."

I'm about to die from trying to stifle my laughter, and the guy gives us this really disgusted look and stomps off.

I laughed so hard that I was gasping for breath.

Then we met up with my friend's new boyfriend, and went back to his place where he ate us both out.

I need more days like that.
