What are the easiest ways to troll /lit/?

>> No.1237596

post "wishlist thread" as subject. these fuckign fools think u want to buy them books desperately.

btw who is it that keeps posting that book with coolface shooped onto it & it say "TyBrax" on it? i want to see the book again so that i can guess the original.

Actually its not that easy. Just posting a topic about Ayn Rand (for example) will get you nowhere as /lit/erans will just ignore it with zeal. You have to know your topic, and knowing your topic means reading the book, by that time a would be troll will fall into a vicious circle and actually read Ayn Rand, therefore become the trolled one himself.

I was going to say they make me rage in the exact same way the little gaggles of 14 year old girls in the mall make me rage, but then I have to smile and roll my eyes and shake my head and think "Ah, they're just kids."

It's fun to give them a little attention every once in a while. You can almost hear the little squeals of giggling and happyness. Who doesn't love attention every now and again? At a certain age, you just need a LOT of it.

It's like giving a horse a little lump of sugar.

That would imply that constantly using a tripcode on an anonymous imageboard isn't itself a cry for attention.

what? i thought he just did interesting analysis of history rather than abstract philosophy?

in that case i might not bother with him since philosophy is waste of time. i could get the same message from a dostoevsky novel without having to go study it.
