not anime, GTFO you loser.

Nothing is real, everything is permitted.

lol. no i learnt nothing because i can't make the same realizations since i can't force myself to accept death. some buffoon from another thread thinks you can induce this living in the moment from random self-help nonsense though, good luck with that.

>>1425645
why? :D

So anyone want to give me general advice before I go out?

You guys know me best.....

Holden did more than Mersault, who bases decisions on how awful the weather makes him feel.

i feel you could only relate to the stranger if you can somehow accept death/abandon hope which seems pretty much impossible to do & i smell BS anytime someone posts on here about being an existentialist. whereas holden is so easy to relate to because everyone's so phony so you can empathisize with the pain that brings him.

i really cant see how someone can relate to the stranger but yeah it's more interesting philosophically, but these are mean to be works of fiction really not philosophical texts.

what's it to you....?

not to mention that bullshit is complete crap as well as irrelevant. he felt no wonder at shooting the guy than he didn for anything else. the only time he changes in the book is when he realizes death is inescapable.

>>1425526
>Mersault felt an intense moment of existentialism, he fucking shot a guy and wondered at the lack of standard emotions attached to it, wondered at the feeling of *existing*
>Holden whined. For an entire book
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS. DID YOU JUST SHIT THIS OUT YOUR ASS?

my point was that you can live amongst society without being a fucking phony, don't delude yourself otherwise. jeez.

>implying I've ever had a lover

>>1425516
he means he can't appreciate Holden because of personal prejudices, see:

funny how the posts defending it are made be phonies & hot-headed buffoons. i wouldnt be surprised if one of these guys was the same anon that got heated when defending Ayn Rand, it gives me the impression of that same venom.
