Do you think any of the English professors you've had browse this board?

Probably the ones in their early thirties

he's talked about Pynchon and DFW an alarming number of times. I'm sure.

My German teacher from HS 100% browses this board. He also taught English. He's also in his early thirties. A real doomer. It was horrifying seeing a /lit/izen irl.

Yeah I had an old professor who would reference 4chan memes to try to freak his students out. He’s probably here now. Funny guy. Hey Mark!

Oh~ probably

I only took one English class in college and it sucked.

The professor has since retired and self-publishes an alarming number of terrible books on Amazon.

I would expect this kind of behavior from a professor at a shitty regional college, but this guy taught at a nationally ranked liberal arts college.

definitely. I think my teacher actually quoted me once.

Anything more to say on him? What was he like?

I doubt he ever posted on /lit/.

I'm a professor, but not an English professor. I started browsing here in 2011 back when "Quentin" was around and "tripfags" in general were a major feature of the board. The board was wittier then, and there was less right wing bleed-over from the other boards. I still check in from time to time, though. Actual adults probably shouldn't be here.

Your whole career is just one big left wing fart sniffing fest. You don't actually have to come here.

I had a college professor who openly said he used to go on 4chan before it became too racist and sexist.

>> No.15436623

>>15436604
relax. jesus christ. i made one small comment, and now you say i'm sniffing farts for a living. it's a fact that /lit/ was a more solidly lefty board then.

he's full of shit. unless he stuck to less populated boards like /lit/ or /ck/ or /o/ or whatever, the major boards were basically always racist and sexist. for the most part it was humorous, but you could kind of tell that /pol/ made it serious. Kind of dumb of him to even really talk about browsing 4chan in person. When /b/ was in its prime, the board was known publicly for cee pee and bullying kids to commit suicide.

This, I didn't really used to browse here back then, but this place was a shit show.
