Have you ever seen a cute girl reading an actually good book in public?
>>24698911never. and i'm 78 by the way.
Do people actually read those books?4chan shitposts are better than that rubbish
>>24698911No. And if I did I would feel scared.
>>24698911i just read books on my phone. i guess many other people do the same. usually you won't be able to identify what book i'm reading or even notice it, for that matter.
this is performative because it's gr
there is no such thing as a good book
>>24698911Saw one with a copy of "Notes from the Underground". Was in her Dostoevskyan girl summer era I guess.Also I once saw a 30-40yo nice looking woman reading Selimovic' "Tvrdava" (in the original Serbian) in a park in England.I think younger people just do this >>24698990
Never. I'm 54
>>24698911I don't look at women; the power they have to destroy my life scares me.
>>24698911Yes, I let my wife borrow mine once.
>>24698911>Gravity's Rainbow>A good bookHa, lol. Anyone reading in public is doing it for performance. If you're homeless, it's acceptable.
>>24700871>he's never read under the shade of a tree in the park or in a hammock by the riverDenying yourself life's simplest pleasures due to insecurity and then acting conceited about your cowardly heart
I'd say 1 in 5 women I see reading on the subway have a book with any literary merit, and that's counting stuff like Joan Didion. And only 1 in 5 people I see reading a book on the subway are women.
>>24698911Why does nobody complain about people watching loud fucking brainrot tiktok slop in public? I'm all for somebody, ANYBODY picking up an actual honest to god dead tree book with actual meaningful words on it, even if they can't understand a single one of them.
>>24698911I saw a girl reading Tennyson on a bus once
>>24698911Women this, women that. Shut the fuck up. Women ruined my life. I can't stop cumming. I'm drained.
>>24700975>Denying yourself life's simplest pleasures due to insecurityNot at all. It's legitimately a fact that people who read in public are nine times out of ten posting it somewhere for validation. It's inherently performative. Read at home, in a comfy chair, with a cup of tea, preferably away from niggers.
yes, my diary (male)
>>24701128whoa
>>24701185>I'm NOT insecure>I'm just constantly thinking about what other people think of me
Cute yes, but reading slop.
