Why are 85% of people who read such fucking uptight try-hards? Don't they know that the true literary geniuses gave no fucks? Chances are that since this is 4chan that a larger part of that 15% is on here so do you know what I mean?

For ex:
Me: I just finished a clockwork orange, shit was fuckin cash.
Literary friend: yeah, that was a good book, loved how it had it's own way of making the violence seem attractive AND repulsive, not too mention the drug use haha.
Me: yeah, the drink with needles in it was kinda like meth. But hey, dude I have some MDMA, we could grab (insert names) and go have fun.
Literary friend: na man, shits like poison. Besides, I gotta finish that thing for (insert whatever class)

I mean really, you have a 4.0. That's over kill. I have passed all the same classes as you with a -D and i didn't lift a fucking finger.

Pic is what a lot of book people need to learn. Inb4 we'll see in 8 years who's got the easier life. Because I never asked for an easy life, just to be a better man.

I'm assuming your in the 85%. So would you say it's that you have a more powerful natural instinct toward self-preservation? Because I have noticed that the try-hards are also cowards.

literally getting annoyed at people just because they don't do drugs because anyone who doesn't do drugs is "an uptight try hard" and not trying to be a better man

seriously bro that is a really weird set of priorities you got there

>> No.2209054

this is why i like the online lit scene

it's just so easy going

it's funny

doesn't take itself seriously

tao lin is a joke on this board but srsly, he writes some funny shit, and it's not just funny, it's also often very clever and sometimes oddly moving

To use /lit/'s strange way of arguing where we sidle the actual subject of ones post to point something pointless out: you used the word priorities incorrectly, none of those are "priorities"

And yes, I am annoyed. I'm sure you've been annoyed by something petty before. Christians maybe? Me? I'm sure there's something.

>>2209058
yeah but your mode of complaining is not "pet peeve" it's "fuck all these crazy people who don't want to do drugs literally all the time"

also, what i mean by priorities is that apparently "doing drugs" is really fucking high on the list of what makes someone a good person for you + it ought to be a priority over other things. that's what is important to you, is doing drugs. fucking weird view, man.

Drugs are fine and all, but seriously, work before play.

Well there is a general air of douchebagginess around someone who doesn't do drugs and gets a 4.0. It's like they are competing with you AND secretly thinking how their better than you. I dislike them because I'm around them all day.

Reported for being underage. Saged for both being underage and for being an example of the problem with youth.

In addition, someone not doing drugs and actually working is not competing with you. You don't do shit, you aren't going anywhere in life. Someone being better than you in every way is not competition.

Douchebagginess toward you, who does fuck all and gets -D. Makes sense to me. Unless you're really talented or really lucky, you're presetting down a pattern of fail. A's get you scholarships. A's mean you can go to grad school. A's mean you try. Hard. Nothing wrong with that. Let me bring you up to date: nothing gets done without effort in the world.

>It's like they are competing with you
social darwinism 101. you ARE competing with them. we're all competing for resources, lad. you're not their friend. unless you are contributing something to your mutual existence in a productive way (not MDMAlolol), you are a part of their competition.

>I dislike them because I'm around them all day.
Don't be. Find new friends who will do MDMA with you.
