Title track. That's it.
70 pages in. Does this bitch ever do anything besides complain that guys are too short?
>>8813403
>implying short 'men' aren't despicable nice try, manlet
>>8813403
Hmm
Pretending that The Bell Jar is literally just Stacey:The Book does have meme potential, but I'm gonna have to see more evidence before I make up my mind
>>8813408
Non-'Stacy' girls find short men vile as well, manlet cunt
>people laugh at a random, thoughtless joke you blurted out
>run the joke over and over in my mind and analyze it for hours deconstructing the syntax and precision and timing of the delivery to figure out why it was funny and why it made so many people react to it
>>8813371
What was the joke?
>>8813371
Sage and report, people

A woman is very afraid of the size of her opening.
So she goes to her mother, she says what am I going to do I’m so big down there when I marry Harry he’s going to divorce me.
Her mother says don’t worry sweetheart it runs in the family, do what I did when I married your father. Go to the market, get some raw liver, put it in there he’ll never know the difference.
So she does.
They have eight hours of sex after their marriage. She wakes up at 10 o’clock, he’s gone but there’s a note on her pillow. It says: My darling Harriet. To think that I waited a year to consummate our loving relationship makes my heart beat so loudly I’m surprised it didn’t wake you up. The only reason I’m not here now darling is that I’m at work to make enough money to buy you a house, a picket fence, we’ll have dogs and children.
When the 5 o’clock dinner bell rings I will be home like the winged Gossamer of love in your arms.
Your loving husband, Harry.
PS. Your cunt is in the sink.
New to /lit/. Is IJ worth picking up? Ive seen some very strong opinions either way, but no arguments as to why
>>8813340
Read the first chapter, if you like it you'll very likely enjoy the whole book. If you think it's pretentious and silly then pass.
>>8813340
no, it's junk.
>>8813345
I agree A friend of mine got it for me as a gift. I'm not finished with it rn bc I'm lazy but I like it. I do think it has gotten progressively better as I've read it. I'm only 150 pages in.
Any good books on trash?
I want to know how much we produce, what its effects are etc.

You can get it new on paperback for $4.24.
A serious response: apparently you're looking for the study of garbology?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garbology
There's books like these at least: https://www.amazon.com/Garbology-Dirty-Love-Affair-Trash/dp/1583335234
What are some books that will give me the same feeling that I get when I look at Gustave Dore works?
I read Dante's Inferno in highschool and I loved it, I think am going to pick up Paradise Lost on amazon. I also really enjoyed the Odyssey.
I'm not religious, but something about these overly grandiose tales really gets me. I can't really properly describe it.
>>8813261
faust
moby dick
iliad
the bible
also romantic poetry
Don Fucking Quixote
And the Bible. I'm one of the more atheistic people on this board, but nothing is as grandiose as the Bible, plus you'd like both The Divine Comedy and PL better if you know what they're referencing

What are some times your robotness was called out irl in any way?
I remember multiple times at school where Staceys would mock me when the class was split in to random groups.
I remember I had to sit next to Staceys for many months at a time and was mocked by them. One of them would say (while other people at the table were listening, obvioualy) "Anon, why can't you look at me when in taking to you?"
I remember early when I started university i went to a clothes shop and this tall blonde girl gave me this really dismissive or disgusted look. If it was on camera it would have been one of those meme gifs that 4channers use.
>>8813186
Go back to /r9k/, you pathetic loser.
you remember that time you made an incoherent post on /lit/?
>>8813186
>What are some times your robotness was called out irl in any way?
My grandma says I need to go out and find a gf, and that I'm not trying hard enough.
My mom's friend said the same thing
It's pretty bad when your own grandma is telling you to go out and chase tail.
ITT: redpilled writers
>>8813158
Me. I hate all women and minorities
>>8813162
No, it's me. I hate women, minorities, people who aren't neo-pagan and whites (to use the term loosely) who aren't Aspergs or don't have strong Neanderthalic heritage (although the two are synonymous)
>>8813158
I really wish we'd stop saying redpilled, bc it makes me think of Morpheus... Laurence (((Fishburne))).
The only time I wanna think of (((coons))) is when I finally let go of my repressed sexuality and watch BLACKED.
post one picture that encapsulated the the entire history of literature
What does /lit/ think of this hot young man? Esp. The Overcoat?
>>8813067
only read a few of his short stories and liked what i read. i intend to read more
Pretty fucked how he burned his manuscripts then starved himself to death in crippling guilt. Dead Souls was enjoyable.

Does anarcho-Catholicism exist? If so could anyone recommend some anarcho-catholic writers?
>>8813002
No.
Catholicism implies a divine hierarchy.
>>8813031
Current anarchism just stands for lack of state. Don't be an autist pal
>>8813031
Well so does all Christianity but Tolstoy is still considered anarchist Christian
my prof said that my essay was "cogent and overwrought, intellectual and sophomoric."
is this an insult or a comment of appreciation? I can't tell.
I feel that he is calling me pretentious. I can tell, because he went verbose and used similar structure with this comment to imitate me. Maybe I'm reading too much into this. Or maybe he's just as pretentious as me. I don't know. He gave me a B. So mediocre!
>>8812999
Literally no one cares

Nice trips!
