So, get this. This fucking douchebag, who was actually awarded the Nobel prize in literature, will not be attending the award ceremony. I'm still incredulous at the fact that they bestowed upon him that prize instead of giving it to a more deserving American writer. Anyone who disagrees can fuck off.

Big fans, we're probably the only forum that discusses his every new release

>>8734072
Most pointless and vapid reviews I have ever seen. Completely devoid of information, it's just a show.
>>
>>8734072
I think he's pretty annoying. I've only ever watched 2 of his video and I don't like his personality so that's about it for me.

They were not very good books. It was bascially, then it got worse.

This looks like absolute trash. It's aping the best parts of the films instead of trying to do something new and looking all the worse for it, as well as coating itself in an already outdated milleneal sheen. And Warburton and Neil Patrick Harris? What's with these meme actors in place of an actual attempt at portraying character? Harris is LITERALLY quoting the exact same lines in Jim Carrey's style, but he can't manage it and the whole thing's coming off as a flaccid parody.
Is this real? I'm getting angrier and angrier as I think about it.

Violet and Klaus being the same height is triggering the fuck out of me. I realize a 14 year old girl isn't going to be very tall, but she should still be noticeably taller than a 12 year old boy.
But if they're trying to pass them off as being the same age, I won't even give this shit a chance, I swear to god.
I will admit that NPH in all those disguises is top-tier quality.

top 5 living authors
1. William H Gass
2. Joseph Mcelroy
3. William T Vollmann
4. Joshua Cohen
5. Kazuo Ishiguro
top 5 most overrated living authors
1. Cormac McCarthy
Gass has the best prose and wild stories. McElroy is pushing the medium forward. Vollmann is more dedicated than anyone to getting it right. Cohen is ambitious, witz is a masterpiece. Ishiguro, the unconsoled.

Being ambitious isn't enough. Keep trying.

As a Right-winger with very little experience in Philosophy beyond Madness and Civilisation by Michel Foucault.
I'm interested in reading Gender Trouble by Judith Butler. I've been an anti-Feminist for so long that I want to actually give academic-tier gender theory a chance. Should I read this or is it drivel?

Nigga just get laid for once so you don't hate women anymore and then give it a chance. I mean you sound more open minded than most and yes at the very least academic level gender theory is going to be more substantive than say, your average bullshit posted on Tumblr.

I have nothing against women. What makes you think that?
