Stupid frogposter making bad metathread.

It's a lot deeper in my opinion because the world in the book is something that you could actually want, whereas 1984 is some interesting things about real life put into a setting that's just bleak and obviously bad from the start.

Both were garbage.
I'm aware they were satire, it doesn't make them good.

I'm sorry you had a hard time in high school concepts of literature

My diary DESU.

Magic mushrooms.

This poster isn't joking. Do you do drugs? try smoking weed once a week or something. That's one of the reasons I don't do it anymore, it makes me into too much of a child. But if that's ideal for you, weed/other light drugs in small doses might work for you.

Sometimes, I wish their would be a zombie apocalypse, just so I don't have to work anymore. There's nothing in my life worth living for.

Kindle because
a) I'm poor
b) my fingers start to hurt if I have to read a fat book for a long time
c) I don't jerk off to my collection like half this board

>>8739699
Physical always. Used books or a library are alternatives if you don't have money.

>>8739699
Physical new. I'm pretty patrician that way. I will by used though I have a Kindle too, but it's just an inferior reading experience imho.

>>8739626
I don't believe you. 60 people? Yeah right.

and why is the TTC not a more admired work of literature

>>8739612
Because anyone significantly influenced by it doesn't spread the word.
