Now we know the likes of where the IJ shitposting comes from.

Did Cliff actually read Underworld or is he just pretending?
>>
I hate this faggot so much

>>8223744
does he have a vid about IJ?

His new format is so cringy, holy fuck.
He needs to stop doing these intros.
Fucking cinema students.

I'm asking because the bookmark in the book only seems like it's a few hundred pages in.

Clarifying because I actually like his videos and the passion he clearly has for reading I've read quite a few books because of his videos, like 2666 and Stoner, etc.
>>
>>8223948
Maybe he was planning to read an except from it and put his bookmark there?
His review wasn't that in depth for being so long, though, so... I dunno.
>>
>>8223948
He talks about it in I think the recognitions review where he takes the edgelord BEE side regarding DFW's sincerity or something.

He may be pretentious, but holy shit are you all jealous of his life. You're equally as hilarious.

I wish I could punch this cunt till his death.

Jealous much?

Hi Cliff! I love you, I want to cuddle you. I want my fingers in your hair. I want my cock in your ass.

I'm not Cliff unfortunately.

I want his strongly erect engorged penis to deeply penetrate my tight boipussy whilst he softly whispers Houellebecq passages in my ear.

No, you didn't, you fucktard.

I don't know how you got that idea anon. Anyway, no, you get out of this thread.

I don't know why you guys don't like him; I do :^)
>>
>>8223948
>passion he clearly has for reading
I think he has a passion for jerking himself off and he's just decided books are a good way to do that.
>>
Never forget that when he started making videos, /lit/ was all over him.
>>
>>8224457
get fucked, I hated him from the start and at least 1/3 of these threads have been calling him a psued faggot since they started
>>
>>8224459
He's pretty much the only decent book tuber there is. He's really creative and humorous, and many of his reviews are genuinely informative. I bought the book of disquiet because of him.

All the fags crying pseud are just projecting. Who fucking cares about some arbitrary "intellectual" label? Just shut up and enjoy the video you stupid faggot.
>>
>>8224471
>only decent booktuber
>genuinely informative
Read 'The Fifth Head of Cerberus,' 'Peace,' and 'Book of the New Sun.' Then feel confused as fuck for a while. Then look up a guy on youtube named Marc Arimini and feel really stupid about what you just wrote now.

>All the fags crying pseud are just projecting
Like shit I am. I could have given you the Cliffy experience of literature analysis when I was 13.
>>
>>8224476
Why don't you start up a channel and grace us with your intellect then Mr. Pseud
>>
>>8224484
Fuck off Cliff, I hope you go bald soon. I just know you're the kind of faggot who has nightmares about that.
>>
>>8224278
Bin yourself

>tricking people into read Gene Wolfe by claiming his books will cause confusion

The only feeling you'll get from reading Book of the New Sun is disappointment.
>>
>>8224493
If that's all you get from New Sun you probably went in too soon. Read Lord of the Rings, Silmarillion and Wolfe's preceding works and you'll probably get a better feel from it.

I feel like I'll never catch up to /h/ and it breaks my heart every day. I want to see it all but there's so much.

Why is it that for the most part you can't criticize some youtuber and his work without being called jealous? Some people think that your favorite youtuber is a pretentious hack who couldn't do a proper book critique if his life was at stake, get over it! It's just a fucking opinion.
>>
>>8224569
Nah, I rarely wank to anime, I'm sticking to gay porn
>>

I created my own booktube channel, so I think It's safe to say I can call this guy a total faggot.

I want to him laugh at my small, weakling of a penis, while his big, thick strong cock penetrates my anus, and rips my asshole open

I highly doubt it.

I haven't read IJ and I never will just out of pure spite of this community which I've been part of since its inception

Shittiest reason to not read something, I know, but I honestly give no fucks. I know 99% percent of you will be like "So what, ur a fag anyway", and to you I say "No u", but my only hope is that I actually make someone on here so buttmad they can't eat chipotle for a week because they're mouthbreathing so hard in their attempts to type out the perfect hot-headed comeback in defense of the pillar of their precious meme-trilogy; for without it they are nothing but a member of the outgroup.
>>
>>8224937
Almost certainly. See>>8223744
>>
Anyone else think he doesn't actually read and/or comprehend books? His Recognitions review in particular seemed like he either skimmed over it or didn't understand it at all
>>
>>8224961
why don't you post that in the comments on his video. he will respond he gets barely any views. let's raid his shit and call him out for being a pseud.
>>
>>8224950
Joke's on you, nerd. No one here actually likes the book. If you wanted to make us angry you'd read it and tell us how amazing it is.
>>
>>8224981

There's no joke on me, I've assumed it was no good from the start.
>>
>>8224937
He's in this thread reading your comment. clicking the burgers and posting
>>
>>8224961
He definitely doesn't go into any depth of the books in any of his reviews.

He sounds like his hymen is fully intact.

Why did you film this in the bathroom?

I'm not a fan. If he's smart he does a good job never letting in show. He might just be smart enough to know that the best way to become popular on the internet is to be as accessible as possible. Like those shitty self help philosophy videos. (Whatever they are called). He does review great books though, a really great selection.

If you don't get he sarcasm you're a moron.

The burden of existence is such that you may as well always be joyous. Watching endless youtube videos is the rock we must constantly push against, he merely asks that we imagine ourselves, as Sisyphus, happy.

Ask him why he is avoiding the question.

Cliff will never lose his meme status, Mr. De La Reptilia, if that's even your real name.

This guy has reviewed many of my favorite books, but he's so damn pretentious. He basically presents the wikipedia synopsis, but not much else.

Why does he read from a prompt, instead of reading the book?
