What will this year be?
Landposting as we descend further into chaos
>>7527380
What is IJ?
>>7527380
ariosto-posting
>>7527384
eternal joking
>>7527394
Come on, that's way older than late 2015. DFW has been a meme for quite some time.
>>7527380
bring back Wittposting
>>7527380
now that /lit/ split into this and /his/ it'll be something retarded based on some fad writer that litmags push as the first shooting star of the year
I mean Michael Chabon is stunning, just stunning, and I don't know how he isn't /lit/core yet. Maybe he'll come to the foreconciousness in a shitpost fuelled stream of meme thought
theres been lots of gaddis and gass posting lately, idk if it will reach full shitposting potential tho
>>7527380
Gassposting.
>>7527543
He looks fucking exhausted.
>>7527544
He looks like he has no eyebrows.
You know, you gotta give it to David Foster Wallace. [B-roll of the German Interview] IJ posting has been strong throughout the year, and it continues to be. Some say it was a late 2015 phenomenon, but that's simply not true. This is a meme that's been around for a long time, and I wouldn't count it out just yet. My prediction? I think we're gonna see a lot of IJ posting in 2016. Hey, maybe it'll be around forever. Perhaps the Jest really is Infinite.
We'll be right back.
>>7527548
Let's not underrate Pynchon posting either. The >subvocalizing guy continues to post. The Pynchon shitposter is still out there with his bag of tricks. I'm going to go out on a limb and say we haven't seen the full potential of Pynchon posting just yet. In 2016, I predict we'll be seeing a lot of that smiling bucktoothed face.
Even more DFW
Hopefully more pinecone.
Wolfeposting comes alive
I'll do my best to back the DFW forces. I'll also adhere to the tradition of posting "ye" or "hack" in most Cormac McC threads I come across. Questions about Hispanic literature will be invariably answered with "Start with the Mayans".
>early 2015 - Christposting
yeah, sorry for that.
>>7527380
There's already Dworkinposting and STEM-posting.
>>7527612
Dworkinposting is just one guy, STEM-posting has been a meme since the 1800s
2016 will finally be the year of Hegel
>my diary desu will become stronger
>gaddis will become uncontainable as people actually start reading it and shitposting it even more
>tao lin will keep trying to meme himself
>bolano will keep getting bigger
>>7527593
You're doing Gods work.
>>7527618
I will cut you
King posting?
>>7527663
honestly, as annoying as gaddisposters are, I fucking love that people are reading him.
>>7527682
It can't be helped. Is this gonna be in the interview?
>>7527693
No, we'll cut this out.
>>7527699
>>7527706
>>7527709
How much time does it take you to cut out pictures of this interview like this?
>>7527746
The interview is only an hour. Also there's a compilation of all the faces he makes in the interview somewhere on youtube.
>>7527746
We have a DFW picture filesharing system going on.

No discernible talent can be found in your pic.
Rand was far older than that. Was 2013 the year of stirner?
>>7527685
King post = best post.
>>7527790
>I do drugs and I am depressed and I am quirky and I am promiscuous and I have casual sex and I write about it and I am artistic
No discernible talent, trite to the point of being physically painful.
>>7527382
You can't actually have more chaos than we already have.
postmodernposting will happen.
Kawabata posting.
>>7527390
I'm down with that desu
Allahposting, as evidenced by a Rumi thread we had recently.
>>7527390
2016 is actually Orlando Furioso 500th birthday
>>7528100
There's enough room for both Gass- and Gaddis- posting
>>7527421
This division upset me. /Lit/ was already small board... But I think the discussions here should be broad because literature is broad and encompasses history, philosophy, and pretty much all the other humanities.
It's the same thing with /pol/, /int/, and now /news/.. News of basically the Reddit front page with some pol posters.
>>7527543
Gass looks like a child molester. Now I don't want to read him, thanks a lot guys.
>>7527663
>>7527690
It's kind of funny how /lit/, and bookmemeing in general works. Some Italian guy started shilling orlando furioso and I can see that book attaining minor meme status. I shilled the fuck out of Babbitt but I think only one other guy here has read it, now he shills it too. Maybe he shilled it first... I don't know.
>>7528169
Do it. READ HIM.
>>7528187
No one is reading him. I
99% of all Gaddis posts are a me.
>>7528092
Kawabata is so great
>>7527554
>>7528161
I don't want anyone to try and change /lit/. We should be allowed to freely discuss, in addition to literature, philosophy, art, and music. This is how it has always been, and this is what makes /lit/ the besy board. Most of the time, the Admins should just leave us alone.
>>7527790
homie I was there
Bring back Stirnerposting
>>7527382
I fucking hope not but i could see it happening
>>7529068
>try to read stirner for the memes
>the book is mostly incomprehensible and I give up 1/3 of the way in
>>7527790
how fucking high should a chair be
>>7527382
>>7528112
Link to thread? <3 Rumi bb
What about HEGELposting?
>>7529076
I wouldn't be too worried if I were you, comprehension is just a spook
>>7528977
Agreed. Moots idea of not subdividing 4chan into a million subs was smart. Less moderation required to make sure anons stay on topic, smaller communities don't lose users, etc.
>>7527380
rococo is for faggots
>>7527380
Flann O'Brien and John Dolan posting hopefully
>>7529079
lmao
>>7527544
Pretty out of gas, one might say
>>7529386
Also, no rampant CP like ex-hotwheelschan.
>>7528087
>You can't actually have more chaos than we already have.
oh child you aren't ready
>>7527427
You're mum's stuning, just stuning, and I don't know she hasn't been fucked by the entirety of /lit/ yet, either.
>>7528087

A reading chair? About that high, so as folks can see you. What, man, you've never done a reading?
>>7527384
Poor yorick
>>7527382
Is NRx mainstream now? I always thought that movement would remain on little blogs and forums.
>>7529957
no, it never will and Land knows this
NRx is more of an analytical framework than an actual political position tbqh
>>7527380
More /pol/posting.
the new shitpost will be born from whatever is at the top of the new top 100 list.
I hope for beckettposting
>>7529386
Yeah I would like some more freedom in what we can talk about. I've been on and off 4chan for the last 5 years or so and only found /lit/ recently. I enjoy the community, but just wish we had something to talk about other then how x philosophy is da best and our bookshelves.
>>7530587
Beckett wasn't a hack, so I hope he'll be spared.
>>7528087
really struggling to understand how anyone could believe this
