Does /lit/ use bookmarks?

>dat pic
I get free ones at the bookstore whenever I buy a book. If I don't have one handy, a piece of paper works fine. During summer, a small flower picked from the field I was reading in will have to do.
You only need one if you're a plebshit who stops a reading session mid-chapter
Once in secondary school I had a crush on a boy who was into literature too, so I made him a bookmark asking if he'd go out with me in cross-stitch.
>>8000072
Did he hit you?
He should have
>>8000072
That's cute
>>8000072
You must of went to a progressive school. Sounds cute though.
>>8000116

I can't wait until you splatter on someone's windshield, butterfly.

Does /lit/ have the worst tripfags?
Found this leaf in a library copy of cavafy's poetry the other day. One could weep!

I was actually waiting for the elitist to walk in and say
"I read all my books in one sitting you plebians!"
But I actually read with a tablet or kindle. For books that aren't electronic, I remember the page number, and usually the last sentence I had finished. This is usually because I'm too ignorant to find a bookmark.
It seems to me that a terrific book will send me back to the days of my childhood, when I loved to read, instead of merely liking it more than other shitty things in my life. On those days I will really really search for some kind of bookmark, out of pure excitement
I use yugioh cards. Somehow more comfortable than actual bookmarks.
>>8000375
I do this all time
>>8000189
>Does /lit/ have the worst namefags?
Sorry that you literally get unironically triggered when we misspeak.
>>7999942
why not just remember the page number?
My bookmarks only survive 2 or 3 books before they get lost, so I usually just wing it.
>>8000370
>Waiting until completing a chapter to stop reading is elitist
I remember being taught this shit in elementary school.
>>8000404
Plenty of arguments against this.
Some books are very large, and some reading speeds, very low.
Chapters are spaced differently for different books, and life is unpredictable.
So if you something comes up, we who have things to do in our lives, we need to put the book down and do them.
Your reading practice is not elitist, bragging about it is what makes you some kind of narcissistic moron who literally feels prous that he thinks he's smarter than internet strangers.
>>8000437
So you fight elitism on the internet by claiming to be better than elitists on the internet?
That is some circular logic, pal.
I use underground tickets
it's comfy and convenient
>>8000437
I was with you until that last reddit tier sentence. Crybaby.
>>8000450
If you could show me where I claimed I was better than anyone I would entertain what you said further.
I simply said that people have things to do, which some person who doesn't read in the same habit as me might not understand.
Im not better for that. For fucks sake I wish I didn't have things to do, my reading and writing practice really take a toll, and even worse, I feel defeated after and I just opt out of the brain work to shitpost instead.
>>8000482
>ablooblooobloo i'm right!
Didn't read
>>8000465
I don't think I will ever understand the motivations and little triggers of people on this board.
So strange sometimes.
It's like unless you call someone you are shit talking a fsg you must be crying about it.
>>8000492
Not surprising.
I wonder why you even chimed in at all if you don't care in the first place
>>8000072
Do you have tiddies? Or are you a gay?
>>8000128
8/10 Made me giggle
>>7999942
nice idle-fondling material
>>8000116
GET OFF OF OUR BOARD
>>8000566
My nuts are great idle-fondling material. Seriously, ask your mom.
>>7999942
No because I'm too sophisticated for that plebian shit.
>>8000078
Moy kekkels.
>>8000072
Guaranteed relies.
>>8000128
Thank god someone else is annoyed by that shit. I'm not even a grammar nazi anymore, I'm into descriptive grammar now. But for some reason this shit grinds my gears.
>>8000189
Hello newfrond
>>8000189
poop ass tits sass try and see if you can pass gass
>>7999974
Nice
>>7999942
Magic the Gathering cards
This is my bookmark.
>>8000783
That looks fucking retarded
>>8000783
thats fucking sick
>>8000783
It's okay
>>8000783
LOoks like shit. Learn designing bitch. But nice game choice.

Sorry that you get unironically triggered when people don't assume you mean something other what you say crossing giant logical chasms

what's wrong with dog earing
I use the bookmark I got from the last Harry Potter book
I'm surprised I haven't managed to lose it yet
>>8001714
What, your virginity? Nobody else is.

What's wrong with burning the corners off the pages you've already read?
>this is you

Dog earring?
I use a newpaper clipping about homosexuals addicted to chemsex.
>>7999942
Is it that hard to fucking memorise numbers
>>7999942
I just use the receipt from the bookstore (or one of the receipts lying around my desk when it's not a bookstore book).
>>8001852
I'm usually more concerned with thinking about the book than memorising numbers.
>>8001852
>he doesn't read 5 books at a time
>>8001854
The receipts have xenoestrogens m8.
yeah right now i'm just using one i got for free from the library but i have a couple of nice metal ones from book stores.
>>8000752
Why don't you fuck off then?
I will use dollar bills or free library bookmarks for bookmarks. I did get a snide comment about my dollar bill usage from my brother.
>>7999974
Subtle.
I use a square of toilet paper.
joker playing card, had it for years now, its super dirty and moist for some reason.
>>8000188
>cavafy
>>8001747
I used paper tissues,but then I converted to using a half page torn out from my notebook.
It's cheap,and efficent,and I don't form a useless emotional bound.
>>8000072
I wish you were my boyfriend
I use this piece of cartoon I ripped off a cookie packaging. It shows how I live in the moment and I think it's very postmodern.
>>8000755
hell yeah, same. I used to have some terrible big boobed anime custom angel token that was shipped to me with an order of cards once, used that until it was lost in my bedroom somewhere.
I used to just grab the nearest paper-based material (receipts, tissues, bills), but a friend across the planet sent me some bookmarks for my birthday.
Thought I ought to use them out of gratitude. Also, they remind me that someone cares.
Nope.
I just use yugioh cards.
>>8002653
So do I.
>>7999974
whats the joke here.
spoon feed
>not reading books in one sitting
what has this board become
>>7999987
I read chapter to chapter and still use a bookmark. It's just easier.
I found postcards from Dubai or somewhere around there in a book from the library a couple years back. I've been using those since.
