Just found out moids scribble all over their books and make notes on the page? What the fuck kind of attention seeking bullshit is this?

Not all men, but quite a few.
I learnt this the hard way after I bought a Murakami book used, it had all the smutty parts underlined.

You guys love to mock Lacan, maybe justly, but his concept of the Big Other is the only way to explain why people write these affected, self-conscious, attention-seeking marginalia even though no one else will ever read them. They're writing for the Big Other.

I underline what seems important in non fiction in case I ever return to the book and I want to remember the main bits.

Desmond Morris does it better and you get a nice BBC documentary series explaining this point among others in ways I could understand as an ESL child.

foids and boys only highlight the most cliche, feel good parts
>life could be a dream
>she was like a ray of sunshine
>They felt like time stood still
>Her happiness irradiated from all her being
Shit like that
Men do research writing on the margins
Gods do research writing on paper cards
