>A Blood meridian video is on 10m on. Youtube
The fuck happened to society

Please try again both of you. I could not understand either of you, what you were trying to say, or what you want from me. Your English is atrocious, riddled with simple grammar mistakes even in a single sentence. The idea that either of you should be talking about this book is absurd. Please stop posting.
>>
Yeah, that book how spooky was time amd again lol wasn't enough for me to bother, might try in future but prolly. NOT
>>
>>24722027
He's saying a Youtube video has almost 10 million views. Why that matters, I don't know.
>>
Wendigoon is a popular YouTube jester and all around moron who has carved out a niche for himself explaining macabre topics without the explicit mention of anything disturbing. Blood Meridian is known for being dark and edgy so of course this absolute dullard has decided he needs to make a 5 hour video explaining his "thoughts". I use quotation signs because the majority of the video will be a simple summary of the book itself with almost zero intellectual input from this lumbering oaf. Wendigoon's smooth brain is so devoid of activity that it serves as a strong argument for tabula rasa. I hope he stands on a rusty nail today.
>>
>>24722071
I think his channel getting shut down would suffice.
>>
>>24722027
You might be retarded
>>
>>24722027
Average Blood Meridian enjoyer
>>
>>24722069
Even if he meant that, it still doesn't make sense.

>>24722085
>>24722089
And yet, one of the two posters I replied to literally deleted his post in shame. The other is stuck here with his knowingly silly post for all to see. Pathetic.
>>
>>24722127
You might be retarded
>>
>>24722071
Did Wendigoon fuck your wife or something? lol
>>
>>24721977
What percentage of those viewers:
a) Read the book before knowing about the video
b) Read the book because of the video
c) Never read the book but watched the video
?

My guess would be:
a) 0.5%
b) 1%
c) 98.5%
>>
>>24722137
I'm willing to take that chance, are you?
>>
>>24722153
lol
>>
>>24721977
He was literally on Oprah in 2007, bruh.
>>
>>24722156
>oh noes, 0.1 % of the world's population couldn't have possibly read muh extremely obscure and esoteric mainstream novel
>>
>>24721977
Why does he just retell the book for the majority of the video and give a quick analysis at the end, might as well watch this instead of reading the actual thing
>>
>>24722153
Do you let him fuck yours? The least you could do.
>>
>>24722071
>Wendigoon's smooth brain is so devoid of activity that it serves as a strong argument for tabula rasa. I hope he stands on a rusty nail today.
sounds a little bit like cope & seethe, he has a youtube channel with 4.4 million subs so he probably doesn't need to slave away for his wage

Everyone who is milking lit topics (and enjoys reading) with a shallow ass (pseud) social media presence, is doing the smartest thing possible in today’s economy (monetizing your hobby)
>>
Wendigoon is based. I enjoyed that video more than Blood Meridian itself
>>
This books seems written by a 9 yo edgy chud
>>
What do you guys think of Creepcast?
>>
i was going to read Blood Meridian but then i found out it's by the guy who wrote The Road. Didn't enjoy that one so eh. I might skip on BM.
>>
>>24723965
The Road is meh, but Blood Meridian is great.
>>
>>24722071
He also legitimately defended adding countless "uhmm" "uhhh" and "errrs" to his dialogue narrations on that other crap channel he's a part of. Called it "acting" instead of him just being a fucking brainlet

He's also a kid-fucker too. Any other ex-sunday school teacher covering that many stories of child molestation would have publicly been torn to shreds, but if you're into "horror" you get away with it (like stephen king)
>>
>>24724133
You really need to have hard evidence on hand if youre going to call someone a diddler.

I'll agree that he is worthy of being a suspect just bc he's a youtuber.

with a comma after "greatest", shouldn't it be "the greatest, most terrible"? if you're trying to say it's the greatest terrible book every made you don't put the comma
>>
>>24724139
yes, it's the same thing as saying
>The Terrible Book Ever Made
Guy critiquing literature can't make a fourth grade level grammatically correct video
>>
>>24724139
>>24724158
Wendigoon has written some short stories years ago of the horror variety.
Want me to dig them up and post here so you can GET HIS ASS?

Or just enjoy yourself.
>>
>>24724133
>He's also a kid-fucker too.
...is he?
>>
>>24722069
I think he’s implying BM is a dark book to have taken such a cultural hold, and that it’s symbolic of where people are at right now maybe.
>>24722071
I listened to one or two of his iceberg videos a couple months ago and he’s not bad. All he does is talk into a mic with minimal editing, but something about it is alluring. I’m not sure if it’s his voice or the way he says it, or maybe it’s just the fact that he does the research for you? Idk but it can make for good background noise.
>>
>>24722156
>d) Watched part of the video then read the book
That's me.
>>
>>24721977
i mean yeah it's normieslop

>>24724168
Go for it, blud

last couple of years, it became VERY popular for some reason
still haven't read it
>>
>>24725762
I'm always amazed by how much of internet culture is downstream of this site. What's next, Houellebecq becomes the next big booktok trend?
>>
Why are you retards acting like Cormac Mccarthy and Dostoevsky are obscure?
