Been lurking a yik yak thread from my college about literature. Incredibly fascinating stuff. Gonna dump the conversation as soon as I figure out how to stitch the screencaps together. Stay tuned.

nice blog bro

No I mean there's some rich ideas in there that could be the basis of some juicy literary discussion.

This is fascinating? I was into this stuff back in high school, it can't be that obscure. Why are they so out of date? Tao Lin hasn't been cool since like 2011 and he couldn't ever be that cool if I thought he was cool in high school. OP get a twitter. What the fuck is yik yak?

I don't know if I'm too deep in the memes, but is that Kolsti?
>>
I didn't read any of them but everyone in this thread is a faggot
>>
>>7329847
either this is kolsti, OP is kolsti, or that's kolsti in the yik yak thread talking about his manifesto
>>
We haven't even fucking developed a complete metamodernism yet, this poster's a goddamn tool.
And yes, I know it's you, OP.
Fuck that embrace of fraudulence bullshit. Get in touch with what's real and express THAT. Find your version of the truth and share it. Fuck your pithy branding. You're not clever just because you can knight's move a literary moment. Stop stroking your cock on 4chan and learn how to write.

OP here, it definitely is me. I was being ironic when I said it wasn't. Anyone who knows how yik yak works can tell it's me by the trashcan at the top. level 5 irony

>>7329755
I'm laffin over here. Either OP is a 10/10 troll fucking with red boat, or everybody's being sincere about this so-esoteric-so-as-to-not-even-exist shit, and this is funny/cringy either way. Not really fascinating though.
>>
this can't be real
did you just make up a yikyak convo?
>>
>>7330431
Very real m8

Holy fucking shit, this ride needs to end.

Go to bed, Kolsti

it can be, but it would take quite a bit of doing.

or more than one device

>>7332592
not really.
if you have an iphone as well as an ipod touch, you can easily do this

The next step for literature will be to put itself out of its misery.
>>
>>7332671
can you expand on this?
i've seen posts such as this, or derivatives of such, at a higher frequency the past year on /lit/, interestingly enough
>>
>>7332671
Literature of Silence by Ihab Hassan actually covers this in-depth, although it's a bit dated now. He compares Henry Millers pure autobiographical style with Samuel Beckett's deconstruction of language through permutation and proposes that both artists were seeking to make literature irrelevant or unnecessary

i just got an email saying my school's getting yik yak soon
someone explain what this will mean to me
>>
>>7333013
Postmetamodern level 5 irony

>>7333013
Yik yak is the normie's version of 4chan. Everyone posts anonymously on one unthemed board, but you can only access the threads if you are near the location they are created in.
>>
Superheroes from your spine
>>
>>7330122
This.
Although OP's cuntiness might be an example of the very celebration of fraudulence he's blabbering about.
>>
>>7333007
I don't need to read some hack to discover what Blanchot already demonstrated
>>
>>7333084
Pretty much this. If you go to a bottom-tier state schoollike I doit's full of normie banter and Facebook level memery. If you go to an ivy/elite school it's Reddit level circlejerking.
>>
They both sound insufferable, but the whole embrace of the fraudulence idea is somewhat interesting.
>>
>>7329687
It's shit, what did you expect us to say?
>>
jesus christ Op you make me fucking embarassed to ever have enjoyed reading a book. I hope you die and never post on the internet again, unless its your suicide note or obituary.

>>7334748
How do you see your school's Yik Yak without a smart phone?
>>
Has sincerity/fraudulence been that important other than Hamlet/DFW/New Sincerity?
>>
>>7329687
behold my yik yak conversation full of insufferable lady-boy posers trying to have a serious discussion. 0/10 would not hang out with.
>>
>>7335990
>posers
Isn't that no longer an insult due to 7th degree irony?
>>
>>7335995
probably

I wonder if your average /lit/ thread was a person what that would be like.

cool, now I know.
>>
Odd-degree irony is the way to go. that fucker actually gave me a talk about even-powered vs odd-powered irony and made this stupid ass laplace transform about sincerity in this email convo I had with him.
>>
I'm not reading this whole thread but I have no idea why what basically every literature at any college in the country says is "fascinating stuff." God bless you all
>>
>>7336511
who is "him"? kolsti? he's a freshman what the fuck does he know about laplace transforms
>>
>>7335556
You can use an iPod touch or a tablet or something I guess
