>>8021873
>he hasn't read Dostoevsky
Fuckin plebs amirite
lit memes ranked
Pynchon > Kafka > Joyce > The Greeks > Gaddis > DeLillo > Gass > DFW
>>8021926
objectively wrong
Kafka was retarded and DFW was a good writer, you would know that if you actually read him
also Gass> Gaddis and DeLillo
>>8021873
>implying Heidegger is seriously discussed on /lit/
>>8021926
Objective ranking:
Joyce>Gass=Gaddis>TheGreeks>Kafka>Pynchon>Wallace>DeLillo
>>8022062
>implying i have any interest in music
i've been listening to the same three megadeth albums for ten years
I love you anon
>>8021873
Even in Dubs, I am.
I cant wait for all of you to die and me to be the only one left on this board. I'll never die
>>8021873
you shouldn't have wasted your time with IJ, to be quite honest
>>8021944
Joyce transcends the meme dichotomy
>>8021942
>Kafka was retarded
No more than you are.

Your music taste is so awful, I don't even want to hear your opinions on literature
obviously this board has always been about discussing things without reading them but i think it's at a fever pitch currently
the recognitions is such a good book i really hope you all read it sometime
>>8021926
>He thinks that Kafka is better than Joyce
>>8021873
>not reading Melville
>not reading Faulkner
>not starting Joyce by reading Dubliners
>>8023569
>not liking megadeth
But what is it that makes writing "good?"
>tfw begetter of this great golden age of Gaddis-posting
please kill me and end this vicious self-love
>>8021873
Dante and Joyce are the only good writers you mentioned desu
>>8023815
Hate to break it to ya bub, most people don't.

Metal is literally for 15 year old angsty school shooter types. I bet you read Harry Potter
>>8023815
Man-child detected.
>>8023815
You're gay, you faggot.
>>8023840
Please, do not mix this sins against taste. Of course megadeth is ubershit, but you can stay decent person if you listen to it, but if you are potter fan, that's like too far man.

>not liking metal
>>8023840
this comment is so cringey it makes me want to listen to metal
Why does the tunnel and recognition get memed so much . no one actually likes those books here
>>8023883
they get memed because they're long and "difficult." To say you have read Gaddis or Gass is like saying, "I'm smart. I'm smart."
What the hell even happened to Capsguy anyways.
One minute he was reading every single Russian and French tome and being ridiculous about his not reading women writers and then bam...disappeared into the ether.
