Explain it, go out, and break up with her afterwards.

I dunno man, whilst has to be on my top 50 list of used words. I always say it wrong too, like while-st.

For me it has to be juror.

Well, I hope your kids get to enjoy a Star Trekian Utopia. I didn't know there was much social change in the Northern Hemisphere (I'm assuming Canada) at this point. I'm optimistic about my country (US) with the new plans to work with Russia to destroy the evil that is ISIS.

Glad to be back, fellas.

Disgusting.

Oh, god yes!

But on a serious note, however much I love the universe, I wouldn't consider it any more than a personal enjoyment. Defiantly not one of the higher brow literary collections, and certainly not on levels of works like Infinite Jest or whatever /lit/ reads these days. Although a wider variety of authors do lend it more flexibility in terms of quality and style, I would say that the books are defiantly OKAY, but not really anything more than that. They get the job done, that's enough.

Although, I would defiantly recommend (if you are a sci-fi reader interested in philosophy and don't want to read the actual works, you sperg) the first two books. When I was in high school (god I was such a nerd), it introduced me to utilitarianism, it's applications, and it's ultimate implications and consequences. It was what brought me eventually to my eventual refutation of utilitarianism as a whole, leading me to Kantian ethics. So I suppose it does have some philosophical implications.

Other than that, I'd say that it's alright, and an adequate choice if you read for fun. Greg Bear is a little dry, and Karen Travis is frustrating, but tolerable.

But that's just a nerdy tripfag speaking. I'm sure others will have their own pieces to add too.

I peel an apple
It's just a fucking apple
What did you expect?

My friends hate each other and there's nothing I can do.

I have the speaking skills of a cat with Tourette Syndrome, nothing I do is meaningful to others, and my eyes hurt. Other than that I'm having a perfectly nice day.

Pragmatism, I like it.

/lit/ stands alone.

Yes, sometimes, unless it's by Ayn Rand, then the opposite is true.

God, I love /lit/, but /tv/ has its moments.

Not gonna lie, it's a fun read. There's always this monster too, if you're left waiting for more.

You guys have proved really informative. Thank you.

The Hunger Games is overrated garbage with a flaccid writing style that would make any self-respecting author want to vomit in his own hat. I can't believe that this made it past publishing.

Legitimately great gay male people must exist before legitimately great gay male authors can, that's why.
