>tfw you don't even read books anymore because you can't bear to give up on Nicholas Nickleby and if you give it up then you'll be considered a definitive pleb
>tfw so much literature is self indulgent UNENJOYABLE no fun allowed bullshit
>tfw pomo trash takes this to another level and the forced lol so randumb sense of humour is excruciating
>tfw mccarthy is genuine trash with only the road being worthwhile
>tfw the academia-media-publishing industrial complex and its lackeys (many of whom browse /lit/) treat literature as not enjoyment but as a medium to tee off their ramblings and to try to gain cultural capital by talking about their tastes
>tfw reading is as much a pointless worthless status symbol as travelling (lit is the pseuds equivalent of instagram whores)
>tfw laughing when watching the dying embers of reverse-fedoras praising religion as profound when Stirner lays it all out for all to see
>tfw stirner doesn't even say anything that a non common unpretentious person doesn't know, it's just that lit doesn't listen to any idea unless it has been presented by a published author

I'd like to thank you personally for making me really reduce my time on /lit/ and spend it on better, more enjoyable things. The last time I read a post by you, I was saddened that someone would spend every single fucking day on this place - then I realized my hypocrisy, I do it too. In response to this epiphany, I called up an old, almost alienated but very dear friend, whom I just visited for the first time in years. It was great, life-affirming and joyous.
Then, as if inspired by providence, I get back on /lit/ and see you again. Thank you for making me see that I must be persistent, that I must continue to shun this simulacrum of social interaction, and that joy is to be found as soon as I leave the screen.
Thank you. Keep inspiring people to get out of here for good frogposter.

You're a cancerous faggot, please eat cyanide
Nicholas Nickleby tolls the bell for an idiot, huh?
Well, chalk another one up to Dickens. Not only the most pleasant-to-read writer in the English language, but also a veritable combine returning chaff to dust.
