I don't really understand what about them beyond their titles being board names is actually to do with 4chan. I think it's mainly a gimmick.

I hate any face put to this website. I hate every mouth breather that tries to talk about memes and reaction images in real life. These boards and their micro communities are only ever funny or interesting when they stay faceless, nameless, anonymous posts on a light violet or green page (custom UI/skinfags pls kys).

Take your little writing project and your musings on being le womyn on 4chan and fuck the fuck off.

I bet she will have more providers trying to help her in one decade than you will have women ackowledging your existence in one life

Source on the pic?

>>8660503
It's from 30 Rock

>>8660506
What's the context?

>>8660508
Tina Fey's character wrote a catchphrase for her TV show that got famous so she wrote a book of loads of "dealbreakers" which had so many in that all the women started questioning their relationships and that made the men angry with her.
I can't remember how it was resolved.

>>8660512
Thanks for answering. I can see why the men would be angry with her.

You're better than an Epson m8. I'm sitting in bed with my galu right now. You'll get there soon anon-kun.

>>8660512
I think it was resolved when she was going to get her own talk show called deal breakers but she didn't like how fame changed her or something, i remember her locking herself in her dressing room just like tracy does when he was upset.

so you gonna post the poem named after /lit/ or what

>>8660416
That's cultural appropriation desu
(no really)

>>8660416
It's because she isn't so hot. She's kinda meh, with bad skin.

99% of life can be explained by x/10.

This moonfaced slut sounds like a Reddit tourist

>>"As a fearless representative of the site, Rachael accurately depicts life as a young person in the twenty-first century, seeking solace in anonymous internet culture. As a woman, her own struggles of expression in the face of the misogynistic tyranny which also exists on the site make her poems both ruthless confessions and inspiring manifestos of female empowerment."

good lord this world really is shit

What do you say /lit/?

Tbh if posted in a crit thread it would get a decent reception.

seems about right

>>8661137
please leave

This is fantastic poetry. It condenses a lot (unemployment, artistic aspirations, delusions of grandeur, inside-references to the board, the internet) into a brief palpable summary of this board. Can I buy this collection anywhere?

>>8661100
It's actually apparent that she didn't

>do people even read anymore..if I knew people irl
We talk to eachother and know what eachother read. This is an obvious outside perspective of what we'd be thinking

>I submitted a poem once
Do you browse this place often? Do you write often? How many times have you submitted

This is a gimmick. And if you've been browsing here for longer than the beginning of summer you'd have seen these poems before.

either autism or too stratified irony

>only-partially-ironic shitposts
How the hell else are you supposed to capture /lit/ in a poem? I mean this seriously.

>>8660416
Rachael Allen is less of a newfag that 90% of /lit/.

Just a snowflake wanting to get special points. Nothing else. If she were decent, her work would shine instead for her.

Otherwise, nah.

>>8661080
I'm not convinced that this is genuine

>>8660454
to be honest, this

>>8660416
the writing shows a clearly not-insignificant amount of time invested into lurking each board and soaking up the culture, mixing it with her own personal life and wider culture. i like it.

also hi rachael

>>8660416
I don't hate you for it Rachael.
That said you should have expected what reaction you'd get.

>>8661162
I like it, too. Reminds me of a Joycean rewrite of Welcome to the NHK.

Consider suicide Tbh

I find it funny that what I took from the time I have spent here (and keep doing so) is the mid twenties unaccomplished guys not knowing, as with most things, how to deal with the random approval of other writers, in my case I do understand it stems from probably feeling threatened. Fact is I'm no different from you. If most of you would actually care into putting the time and effort into doing something serious I have absolute conviction that you would be noticed.

Thanks :)

>>8660416
if cataloguing the many and varied shitposts on here is what it takes for a woman to be "empowered" then truly rachel had no real power at all

>>8660434
What does it say about /pol/?

>>8662324
Tits or GTFO

>>8661080
hits close to home desu

that's quintessentially /lit/ though

This! I come here to escape the fucking normiescum, not to have them cheaply copy my memes and jokes.

Fucking normies, I swear.
