Are most people on here actually intelligent and well read or

I read when I have time, it's fun to see books that you've read being discussed.

A lot of people on here are intelligent and well-read but they waste it all on poisonous attitudes and self-loathing.

Some people will say yes and they will be lying.
Some people will say no and they will be telling the truth.

Bloody stupid question, really.

yes/no

>>7820653
The latter

this question/answer transcends the yes/no dichotomy

I'd like to think I'm reasonably bright, but I'm no genius. I've never been to uni and my ADHD prevents me from reading as often as I'd like.

That's pretty much all of 4chan I've seen. There is always a palpable sense of infighting, hatred, and elitism.

You're never fit enough for /fit/
Your taste in music is shit on /mu/
You're never fashionable enough for /fa/
Your taste in food is shit on /ck/
If you've ever been outside you're not lonely enough for /r9k/
Your taste in films/television is shit on /tv/
Your taste in video games is shit on /v/
Your political opinions are shit on /pol/
And your taste in books are shit on /lit/

Even on the porn boards, when they speak, are derisive of each other's fetishes or taste in porn actors.

This place is terrible. It's caustic and derisive. Yet I return here again and again out of habit or sheer boredom, I can't differentiate them anymore.

I have read novels.

>Your taste in films/television is shit on /tv/
More like your taste in memes is shit on /tv/

Why would people be here if they weren't at least half-assedly interested in books/literature?

Well everyone knows that we all want validation by anonymous people of our taste in books no one irl cares about

>>7822451
That's what goodreads is for

I've read all the novels. Not that intelligent though.
