Did any of you read these books? I Hope they Serve Beer in Hell? Or Real Ultimate Power? Alphabet of Manliness?

All these authors were getting mainstream fame and attention, then in like 2009/2010 they all just...disappeared.

Sam Harris is sort of bro lit imo.
Jordan B Peterson is kind of bro philosophy, though he really goes out in the weed imo.

He's a bad writer and got laughed off of some radio show when he got exposed. There's plenty of "bro" literature how there that Max aped. Henry Miller, Bukowski, etc.

Didn't this guy wife up and sort himself out with Jungian therapy?

if you're talking about tucker max in particular he mellowed out and made babies. happens to a lot of these guys

like what do you think? by your early to mid 30's you're getting too old to be a bro, have to change your schtick. justin bieber couldn't play to the teenyboppers forever either

there are still bachelors out there writing unapologetically about fucking but they the affected "bro" attitude is obsolete

you might like delicious tacos, almost all of his stuff is on a blog

How do you mean? I want to see BTFO

Social networks killed these prehistoric memers. No one wants to go on some website to read long, self-important, edgy rants anymore.

The book of Maddox was nothing but the extension of his website (which still exists and seems frozen in the late 90s).

>Live a fucked up but enjoyable college life
>Write successful book
>Movie adaptation announced
>Problems arise during production
>Movie releases
>Movie bombs fucking horrendously
>Have mental breakdown
>Quietly retreat from public life
>Fall for Buddhism meme
>Living of dwindling royalties

Did all of the 2000s "bro-lit" people flame out when people started sharing internet memes and stopped sharing the link to that Real Ultimate Power website?

Blogs are still a thing, but has lit largely been replaced by video and podcast?
>>
>>9652531
you can't replace lit with anything. the brain processes sounds and images differently than the written word

Tucker max was just a stunt to sell books. Not organic.
>>
Tucker Max graduated from Chicago in three years (summa cum laude) and holds a JD from Duke. He's done the the core curriculum and read the Canon, he is a successful and popular author who has published several books at major publishing firms, and millions of people enjoy his writing.

Objectively speaking, Tucker Max is more /lit/ than anybody who uses this website
>>
>>9652843
First of all you are assuming a lot in that statement. Also JD is probably the least intellectual grad school there is. Lawyers are not intellectuals they are bureaucrats. And, publishing is not the only goal of writing. Great artists go their whole life without success quite often.
