I have a chance to see him in a discussion with Yanis Varoufakis.
Should I go? Has anyone here ever gone to see him talk?
I guess technically this thread is allowed here anymore, but /his/ doesn't have the same relation to Zizek as /lit/ does, if it has any. It wouldn't make sense to post it there. Sorry, Hiroyuki, but /his/ was a terrible idea.

Yes, then afterward ask him if he knows he's a meme

Totes m8, it's definitely going to be funny and possibly enlightening.
i would love to see a talk by him
would be such a delight
Is this going to be recorded and uploaded onto youtube? If not OP can you record it?
Is it this event?

Yes, that's the one.
Did someone say /lit/ meetup?
>>7322251
Zizek stop advertising for your talk, we're going to watch it anyways.
Why don't you get off your arse and write a book discussing /lit/'s culture already?

I really, really hope that is the case. Varoufakis' recent talks have been stellar, I can only hope both of them don't loose too much time on the issues with the refugees and multiculturalism and focus mainly on the democratization of the EU while having a top notch banter.
I got lucky enough to spend a week with him at Duke university
After I go to the dentist and before the anesthesia wears off I record myself reading First as Tragedy. I then play it back to myself and pretend I'm attending a talk.

Fuck Zizek you can just get a cold and talk to yourself with more clarity than he could.
Yanis on the other hand is a brilliant economist. He's worth seeing.

If the EU was actually democratic then the refugees would be sent back to where they came from and Greece would not get so much as a cent.

This, OP. Please.

What if Zizek posted a thread on /lit/ saying he was sent here by an anon?
>>7325456
It would be the end times, att vara ärlig, familj.
>>7322251
Bring an umbrella and a raincoat if you end up in the front rows near where he's speaking.

Story?
If Zizek ever came to my college, I would definitely go and sperg out.
