>>24736901You're welcome.
>>24736903I think we pretty much wrapped the thread up. Good talk.
>>24736906Not so fast.
>>24736908>another autistWe are way over our quota but I hear /diy/ is looking.
>>24736910>autistObjectively untrue. How does it feel always being wrong?
>>24736913>my autism proves I am objectiveCan't argue with that.
>>24736917I am not autistic. Presenting information in an organized way is not autistic, it's just smart. Grow up.
>>24736918>can't into banter>not even when anonymousNot judging, just saying.

>>24736924Honestly, I enjoyed Casino Royale more than I had expected.

>>24737138>Did I do good /lit/??? Please affirm me!!! I can't just read if no one tells me I'm a good boy...I know you're being ironic, but there's nothing wrong with sharing your yearly reads in this format. If you're making a video about it, I think there might be a problem.
>>24737158What's the book group category meant to be?
>>24736913You're on 4chan dude, you have autism >>24737022Are the animorph books any good (for what they are)? I always just thought the covers were funny. Anyone who says don't judge a book by its cover has never seen an animorph book.
>>24737285if I've read a book for my book group, I put who chose it. We take turns choosing. ftr I'm up next and I'm going to make them read As I Lay Dying
>>24737292Okay, fine. Ffs...
Money Martin AmisThe Epic of GilgameshThe Portrait of Dorian GrayGenghis Khan and the Making of the Modern WorldBook of Marvels and Travels John MandervilleThe AeneidThe Satyricon (reread)Mythology of the British Isles Geoffery AsheUbu Plays Alfred JarryBlood MeridianRidley WalkerThe Wasp FactoryThe OresteiaLibertine DisolvesDharma BumsDo Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?I'm currently rereading the Iliad very slowly and plan to reread the Odyssey next. After those I want to read either Suttree or Moby-Dick.
>>24737292theyre unironically the single best childrens book series, every time i read them i get something new out of it. lots of philosophical questions and chances to ask yourself what is the best thing to doif you do read them know its a bit slow at the start, it kicks up at about book 5 or so
>>24737022Was Corndog zen worth the read?
>>24738740It might have been if I could talk about it without be accused of being Wallace but can't really say. If you like 4chan autism, absolutely worth reading, if not, probably not.
>>24738740the other anon isnt me, but yeah sure. it was short (maybe 4 hours?) and it was something newi didnt go in with high hopes but honestly it wasnt even that bad. its pretty evenly split between really good parts and really bad parts. while i was reading it i would see a sentence that seemed to be written by some 10 year old esl but then the next sentence was really good and all was forgivenits a comedy at the end of the day (whether wallace would agree or not). he also posted an updated version (>>24738154) that apparently fixed some "poorly written sentences" but i read the old version so i cant comment if he fixed it or not
>>24738836Hello Wallace, has the bladder infection cleared up?
