Despite your pseudo-bohemian appearance and vaguely leftist doctrine of beliefs, you guys know nothing about art or sex that you couldn’t read in any trendy New York underground fashion magazine. You're all vacuous soldiers of the thrift store Gestapo. You adhere to a set of standards and tastes that appear to be determined by an unseen panel of hipster judges, giving a thumbs up or thumbs down to incoming and outgoing trends and styles of music and art. (Go analog? You’re so post-modern!) You’re diving face forward into a antiquated past. You guys spend your time sitting in circles with your friends pontificating to each other, forever competing for that one moment of self-aggrandizing glory in which you hog the intellectual spotlight, holding dominion over the entire shallow pointless conversation.

When you walk by a group of "normies" you pat yourselves on the back and scoff. It's the same superiority complex shared by the high school jocks who made your life a living hell, and makes you a slave to the competitive capitalist dogma you spend every moment of your waking life bitching about. What do you have to say for yourselves?

Well I'm a virgin so take a guess about sex. And on art I do think I know something.

I think that art is platonic in a way, certainly, but /lit/ isn't homogeneous, for example I vowed never to read Infinite Jest, I absolutely hate White Noise, I think that Dick a much better writer than Pynchon and so on.

Well I see my friends once a month generally and as far as discussions go I think we all gain something from them. We are an interesting bunch so you learn something every time.
>When you walk by a group of "normies" you pat yourselves on the back and scoff.
That's true, when I see a bunch of Germans who come here for electronic music festivals I thank God he placed me within a family of intellectuals

I don't think I have a superiority complex, but I certainly think that I'm superior to most people my age intellectually. I'm much more well spoken and know a thing or two about philosophy so I may be pretentious, but the professors enjoy it.

Do you want to know why men like me rise to the top?

It is not only because I am strong...

But because others are weak.

Men seek their own comfort and protection above all else.

Like insects, they scurry back into the dark when a torch is lit.

I do no take away men's freedom...

They give it willingly, in exchange for the promise of living one more day in their cozy little prisons of their own design.
