Why aren't you reading a book right now?
>>7521763
I am listening to music. Fuck off, David. You're dead.
>>7521763
Calvino is too damn inspiring to read all at once. I really wanted to finish that damn book before the new year too, but I have to put it down after every fucking chapter.
>>7521784
If on a winters night a traveler?
I'm filthy from work, Davie. And drinking a beer. Then shower. Then adderall. Then books.
I just finished reading a book, and I'm getting ready to make a phone call.
>>7521801
Yep
>>7521815
>>7521831
I made the phone call. I am now waiting on a ride to the auto repair shop to pick up my van.
Waiting to be alone then I am going to read for a few hours.
Can't get comfy.
>>7521840
Did you bring a book?
>>7521877
I can't read hung over.
>>7521763
my friend is over, part of me wants him to leave so i can read
Fuck you DFW
I decided to take a break and visit /lit/
What a mistake that was
I'm about to have something to eat. After that I plan to watch a movie, then meet up with an old friend I haven't seen in over a year. Once I've done all that I'll read.
I'M TIRED OF READING
IT'S TIME FOR KNEADING
Because I dont want to. I don't force books down my throat like op's mom forces dicks down hers. I wait till I actually want to read.
>>7522032
There is, or at least used to be, a video on Youtube from the DFW interview from OP's pic cutting together all his displays of nervousness. I can't find it, anyone got the link?
>>7521763
well, DAVID, if you must know I am considering jacking off or watching a movie
I haven't read a book in years.
Depression
>>7522941
>all of /lit/
Because I'm drinking. Night time is for drinking and music, not reading.
Serious question, how do people stomach wading through memes and stale book/autist discussion without drinking?
I'm too tired to focus properly so I'm listening to music and reading shitposts for the rest of the night
i'm talking myself through a shift in perspective

Mental disorders. That and drug abuse are literally what's fueled most all of the arts for the last century.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT I'M DYING
>>7523181
Jesus Christ this guy could be mistaken for being autistic.
How are his books so well received?
>>7523181
>>7523693
>hasn't seen the whole video, transcribed the dialogue, annotated, summarized, and written a personal response.
>>7523707
Nigga I'm not going watch an hour and a half of an interview with a guy who wore a fucking bandanna and wrote about tennis.
>>7523712
I'm not saying you have to but I am going to feel superior knowing that I have.
I just finished this recently, has anybody else read it? thoughts?
I thought it was great and I wish they wrote a second edition 6 or so years later or something, after rap hit its stride.
>>7521763
My country has shit literature, and internet is only place where i could read books in original
lifting weights in the garage
>>7523164
It's a Voyager
About to go to a party with people I don't really like.
I like the idea of reading more than I like to actually read.
I can't do anything more taxing than browse 4chan and look at funny pictures of cats when I'm hungover.
Because I am watching anime
Because I don't want to be seen as lazy while at work. Would if I could. Currently on the Hobbit and planning to go as deep into Tolkien's oeuvre as possible
>>7522018
Checking that rare pepe ^
>>7521896
senpai, just read to him
>>7521896
so instead of ignoring your friend by reading you're ignoring him by browsing the internet
r u a fcking autist or something m8
>>7521763
Because I'm at work.
i'm too drunk to concentrate on reading properly
i'll read in bed all day tomorrow when i'm hungover
>>7521763
I just finished one an hour ago and am going to start one tomorrow
>>7524586
nice what color

literally the most pleb- nay pleb is too weak a word to describe the horrifying reality in which you transcribed your words.

haha didn't even bother to watch the actual interview
>>7525926
He comes off as much more lucid and less autistic in the Charlie Rose interviews.
Still love all of them, however.
>>7521763
Lack of motivation.
Like, I don't fucking know. I am not depressed at the moment, atleast not nearly as much as I was all year, but like, I have 13 fucking unfinished short stories sitting in my God damned folder, I have 3 unfinished programming projects sitting in my fucking folder, I have my fucking notebook sitting on my desk with a pencil next to it ready to be written in with like 10 tabs open with the material I need to write down to help me along with learning fucking Prolog, but I just don't want to fucking do any of it. I wish I had motivation.

FAG!
I'm new on /lit/, he killed himself?
>>7521763
Sad because I just moved to a new city only to be fired from my job and have no one to spend New Years Eve with.
I'm a couple beers down and thinking about going to a bar alone.
Thoughts?
>>7523181
