Whats up with all the references to david foster wallace in Hypersphere (reading his book "a supposedly fun thing ill never do again" pretty good tbqh senpai).

Also pic related its the best book of 2016, 2017 and every year before or after its conception.

Nice thumbnail.
Also it is funny.
Maybe even enjoyable.
Calling it even the greatest book of the month it came out is a laugh though.

I'm enjoying the fuck out of Tundra, personally, so I can't wait to get to this.

Probably gonna buy it, desu senpai desu.

Fuck reddit, how dare you.

>>7582704
I kind of want it to sit on my shelf.
>>
>>7582714
Well its probably about as cheap to print it all as it is to buy it.
But hey do want you want man.
>>
>>7582724
If I didn't have a fat Christmas bonus from my wagecuck job, I probably wouldn't.

Let's be honest, though, I'll probably lose interest by the time I finish Tundra.
>>
>>7582739
If you buy this book you are either a shill (highly likely) or an autist.
>>
>>7582771
Or reddit. But let's be honest, I probably won't.
>>
>>7582671

I'll take that over much of the nastiness posted around here any day.
>>
>>7582815
Do you even know where you are?

The Hello Reddit meme might be the killing blow to any real discussion on 4chan. You've read it here first folks. 4chan is truly dead.

Anne Frankly I do Nazi that happening. ; )

>>7582818
It's obviously reserved for comments veering into plebedom, which has been happening a lot this week.

GEE, I WONDER WHY?
>>
>>7582818
it's just the new 'lurk moar' you dumb imbecile
>>
>>7582835
That doesn't even make sense in the context of how it is being used in this thread, let alone how it is used in almost every other instance in almost every other thread on almost every other board of this site.

What's the problem? Hypersphere is Reddit. The thumbnail is Reddit. Most of the pleb comments ITT are Reddit. Go back 2 Reddit.

What containment board did you lads migrate here from?

>>7582934
i only browse /lit/ during winter intersession and it gets worse and worse every year. /lit/ peaked 3 years ago
>>
>>7582934
>>>Reddit
>>
This book had the misfortune of arriving at the same time as the supposed redditors. Whether this two facts are linked or not, it doesn't matter. Wheter this book is good or not, it doesn't matter. /lit/'s hivemind will label it as reddit and, therefore, as a terrible memebook. It will forever be laughed and shat upon. Its legacy will be detrimental to this board's culture.
>>
>>7582991
Are you stupid? It is actually a terrible memebook. It is literally a terrible memebook.
>>
>>7583010
I never claimed it was anything. Haven't read it.
>>
>>7582950
go back to reddit then
>>
>>7583031
There's not much difference. I think I'll stay.
>>
You fools, reddit spilled in after the /lit reading chart appeared on Imgur and right when Hypersphere made a buzz. Then they wrote their own shitty book in like three days, and nobody gives a shit about that one.
>>
>>7583022
Then fuck off, because you have no idea what you're talking about.
>>
>>7583031
you first
>>
I am calling chinese mot
>>
>>7583048
I'm not talking about the book's content, I'm making a comment about its impact on /lit/. One doesn't need to read the book in order to see the reaction. Sure, it may shine some light upon it, but my original statement was that the actual content doesn't matter, whether it is a terrible memebook or not, it will be remembered as such.

Why did you ledditors let this thread die?
>>
>people actually waste their time reading /lit/ made books instead of actual fucking books
>when they're not shitposting they're reading shitposts
It's like a continuous stream of shit being flung into your eyeballs; day in, day out. No wonder this place is a hell hole.
>>
>>7582991
>at the same time
The guy who published it posted about it on the 4chan reddit and a mod stickied it. After that, the redditors came here. It's no mystery.

Also Hypersphere>Tundra

>dichotomy between /lit/ book and 'actual' books
>implying most authors from Cynewulf to DFW wouldn't be shitposting here if given the chance
