I regularly browsed /x/ back in 2008. before it devolved into creepypasta and role-players. Now I rarely visit.

I've got one particular /vg/ thread I visit.
and recently It's been nothing but /co/

I haven't looked in /lit/ for years until this weekend. It's changed into
>Philosophy
>pleb
> and pepe memes.

Nice quads m8. And yeah, I know he is a leftist, but I don't really care if he writes interisting shit. Most of my favourite fiction writers are leftists.

>Homer - The Iliad
>Homer Simpson not present

I sighed, feeling myself exhale. This was not easy. it was time to put him out of his misery.

I remember when I had first heard that phrase. I was a young child and walking with my dad along a dusty country lane near a village we used to stay in. A faded memory of a time long gone to the annals of unwritten history. At some point we discovered an old, worse-for-wear rabbit lying beside the road. It did not look good. My dad went over, crouched down and examined it.
“Well”, he said after a moment, and sighed, “thought as much.”
“What is it dad?” I asked, taking a look. The rabbit had sores all over its body, it lay docile and weeping.
“This rabbit here has myxomatosis. That’s a viral infection, son. It’s man-made. It was introduced by Australians in the 1950’s to curb population growth. There were too many rabbits, so the people needed to cut them down. So they made this. The disease creates a terrible skin condition, the rabbit goes blind. It has no hope and it will live in constant, agonizing pain until it dies.”
“Dad, that’s horrible!” I yelled.
“I know, son. That’s why we need to put it out of its misery.”
“What do you mean dad?” I asked, as he put a plastic bag over his hand from his pocket, and leaned over and picked up the rabbit by its hind legs. It twitched slightly as my dad walked with it over to a dry stone wall.
“Stand back, son”, he said, and suddenly he lifted the rabbit up high, and then swung it down hard against the wall with a loud and gruesome crack.
“Dad!”, I yelled, as I watched him toss the rabbit’s limp body over the wall and into a field.

David was going to be that rabbit, we had already caused him enough pain.

It's fine but it feels like your sentences are back to front, and I'm not /lit/ enough to explain why.

>>8514827
Your phrasing should be simpler. I get the feeling you're trying to seem clever in stead of writing cleverly.

Heck, throw in your favourite documentaries too.

i don't think i will be doing that for you tonight OP, sorry

>>8531565
if we're doing favorite documentaries, sans soleil. no brainer

>>8531488
i grew out of my edgy atheist phase when i studied philosophy in college and realized all of the smartest and most interesting people around me were some kind of theist.

I feel like there's a point in philosophical maturity where many people realize that faith in a higher power actually makes more sense than many other views

It's good to know that Christians do not make up their own axioms.

>learns philosophy
>let's other people's dogma become his beliefs

Kek.

Which God did you opt for?

I have a hypothesis that op is a faggot. All the evidence corroborates my hypothesis and it's there simplest explanation given the phenomena. I'm simply waiting for peer review.

>he doesn't know that theory is a set of sentences closed under the 'logical consequence' relation

>>8531360
OP IS A FUCKING FAGGOT HAHAHAHA FUCK YOU OP SUCK MY DICK

Yes.

Wolf and the Sheep
Fox and the Sour Grapes
Stork and the Frogs

Well no, they're dead, retard

I am simply wondering whether or not we'll ever get to see work as good as that produced by people who witnessed 20th century history firsthand. IMO we haven't.

Are you asking if there are going to be wars again? Because there sure as hell will be.
