Literature is so fucking boring.
Life, friends, is boring. We must not say so.
After all, the sky flashes, the great sea yearns,
we ourselves flash and yearn,
and moreover my mother told me as a boy
(repeatingly) ‘Ever to confess you’re bored
means you have no
Inner Resources.’ I conclude now I have no
inner resources, because I am heavy bored.
Peoples bore me,
literature bores me, especially great literature,
Henry bores me, with his plights & gripes
as bad as achilles,
who loves people and valiant art, which bores me.
And the tranquil hills, & gin, look like a drag
and somehow a dog
has taken itself & its tail considerably away
into mountains or sea or sky, leaving
behind: me, wag.

Read some contemporary literature or some adventure stories by Jules Verne or Robert Louis Stevenson. Search the NYRB Classics site for the word "violent". If I read nothing but Middlemarch and Pynchon all day because some faggot on a Tibetan Frog Drawing site told me too I would kill myself.

When I read Hugo I always imagine what the big-budget, one-take 10 hour film with ten thousand actors would look like. plus he's got some good action too.

that means you're not learning anything
I feel boxed in by literature and its suffocating culture which even /lit/ can't escape. I've got to read only what the media-publishing-academia industrial complex tells me to read? I have to read all those boring books? I have to have the correct philosophical beliefs? I have to reject the potential of new technology out of hand - unless of course the current Ivy League / Oxbridge educated writer does it first, in which case it is incredible?
