Literally the only two good booktubers ever were harassed and scared off of the internet by /lit/

I wish there was an ancient egyptian /lit/ chart. All I can say OP is just read it like you would any other book. Only bumping because I'd like to see some nifty reccs too.

Do you think Cormac did?

I always get too overzealous with them; I prefer starting a new sentence to make everything cleaner.

I tried to use them in my journal paper but my supervisor removed them in his edit. I know he thought they were pretentious.

Why not learn about regular physics instead?

Here ya go buddy

Disregard the chart and just start with Golden Pavilion or Patriotism. Sailor is a chore to read.

I used to like Bill Hicks when I was 13

So he didn't end up as a waffle house waitress

so he didn't end up as a fucking waffle house waitress.

> huh?

But he was also a massive faggot. Everyone knew that.

>>9798581
Despite that he just wanted to live a quiet life.

Why would you kill yourself over that? She was even fat when it happened.

Since we can't agree on this I'll ask a different question. Will I like it if I think Star Wars is gay as fuck?

davy... easy on the irony

One of the things that has turned me off DFW is his penchant for social commentary, or maybe the style in which he delivers it, but he knocks it out of the park right here. Sums up the boomer generation's childishness and unserious attitude toward art and how postmodernism was really just about rebellion and trashing western culture because the boomers were a brainwashed group of idiots that were disconnected from their past by mass media and told they were creating this new thing that turned out to be nothing more than self-destruction promoted by the jews. Is his social commentary usually this good?

>>9798510
His social commentary on literature and the state of art is usually insightful. His work is another matter but the man is worth lending an ear to otherwise.

>>9798320
OP... easy on the potatoes

>>9798320
prolly on google books. if it's in the public domain, it's almost certainly there.

There is just something about this book. I can get a .pdf, but I feel that will ruin the search; I must find this book in person, and then I must read it.
