On Ulysses >An illiterate, underbred book it seems to me; the book of a self-taught working man, and we all know how distressing they are, how egotistic, insistent, raw, striking, and ultimately nauseating. When one can have the cooked flesh, why have the raw?Melville was a working man who just basically read a lot. She had in fact read several books by him, and said in her essay on him>Was not some one talking about the South Seas? ‘Typee,’ they said, was in their opinion the best account ever written of—something or other. Memory has dropped that half of the sentence, and then, as memory will, has drawn a great blue line and a yellow beach. Waves are breaking; there is a rough white frill of surf; and how to describe it one does not know, but there is, simultaneously, a sense of palm trees, yellow limbs, and coral beneath clear waterAs for Moby Dick, she said the prose was rather florid but it's greatest strength lay in anticipating the modernist style she her would later perfect
she loved Conrad tho yet he was a working man toooh wait he rose to the rank of captain, maybe that made her pussy wet
it's quite rare to see a 1/10 woman
>>25025950Any man who learns a language besides his own well enough to be literary in it, will make a pussy wet. It doesn't even matter if it's Middle English. I remember quoti g from Chaucer to a woman I barely knew when we were casually talking about books and she went into a trance and said, "You can do whatever you want to me," and I was naturally shocked and could only say, "Pardon me?" And she snapped out of it, and then said, you know, if I had any recommendations for her to read, she would read whatever I thought she might like
>>25025955Hermann, please. Recognize your betters. Especially they have a room of their own
>Virginia WolffMentally ill lesbian and a precursor to the permanently single and hopelessly stupid brainwashed White liberal lunatic females currently destroying civilisation. Cannot imagine caring what she thinks about anything.
>>25025959that only works on morons, if you encounter women who actually enjoy reading/learning anythng beyond an airport bookstore bestseller, they won't give a shit, and women have more degrees than men these daysanyway what you're saying is true, but most dudes just pick up guitar insteadt. speaks 2 languages and used to pick up guitar
>>25025945what an ugly jewessJean-Pierre Melville was kino though
>>25025964Women actually DO care about reading fine literature will be more turned on by a man who reads literature in multiple languages lil bro bro. They're also more impressed by piano than guitar
>>25025945She's half wrong about Joyce, much of what he learned was self-taught but he did go to school to get educated in multiple languages. Working man who's self-taught is supposed to mean dude who was never formally educated, and just read a lot, which applies to Melville but not Joyce. It makes it come off as if she's butthurt he's more well-read than she is.
>>25025977But will they be sexually impressed? A woman who's already well-read and bilingual will want a man who's in the same league, but she won't be so flabbergasted that she'll immediately drop her pants. To them that's meeting their standards, not going the extra mile.
>>25025977>They're also more impressed by piano than guitarno fucking way
>>25025962>memetic buzzwords and language patterns stuck in 2015>beep boop i have free will and original thought bzzzzrst
>>25025945>the modernist style she her would later perfectLOL
>>25025991Except he's right and you look like a fool. Carry on.
>>25025945What is wrong with working men?
>>25026004nothing, she's just acting like yet another ungrateful snob
>>25026003dont you have an anime podcast to unpause, fatty
>>25026004they're wagies
>>25026004Raw doggers
>>25026017>actual memetic buzzwords and language patterns stuck in 2015Fuck you, asshole.
>>25025986Yeah they will because a woman who is into that finding a man of equal enthusiasm and expertise is like a man who loves a sport and then running into a woman who is as much of an enthusiast and nerd about it as he is. That will even actually make a guy who doesn't give a fuck about sports turned on, but a guy who loves that sport will value it all the more
>>25025945>self-taught working manSeems like the best sort - someone actually grounded in the real world who taught and learned himself out of pure personal interest.>>25025977> lil bro bro.Just kill yourself. You and your bad posts
>>25026004They give women the ick
>>25026042By "the real world" presumably you mean man's world? Which manfully and manly mans manliness?
>>25025945It's not complicated. Woolf was rich and hated poor people. Joyce was poor, so she hated him.

"i am bored by heroism, virtue, and honour" - women in a nutshell, at least this cunt is honest about it
>>25026039>i've only flirted with retardsngmi
>>25026092I'm not gay so yeah
>>25026100Sounds gay
>>25026172Trying to make flirting into something too cerebral is
>>25025977women care only about cock and money lil bro
>>25026088How did it get this bad, bros?
>>25026202feminism, of course, and all that came out of it. but anti-feminism tirades are so tired at this point.but yes, women need to be subjected, they are amoral and cannot wield power, and all that. when submissive to a man they can be quite sweet and useful. give them power however and they get uppity and do mischief.
>>25026004British are fervent caste system snobs
>>25026236I've never understood how the upper class there can hate the lower classes so much. It seems like in the rest of Europe a sense of noblesse oblige pervaded a bit better, but the English upper class really does despise the working class and the bourgeoise.It even forms the backbone of their suicidal immigration policy, they keep importing foreigners because they want to punish the lower classes for voting Leave on Brexit.
>>25025959I'm willing to believe this because only an absolute autist would quote Middle English Chaucer to a woman.
>>25026184>explaining = makingunderaged fat virgin
>>25026246maybe he's a boomer? women these days want men to tarot and astrology, not art
>>25025981>It makes it come off as if she's butthurt he's more well-read than she is.Absolutely. Most of her complaints about Joyce reduce to irritation at someone "beneath" her class getting praise for his writing and evident learning that she thought should be the preserve of people within her own class.
I wonder if she would enjoy the Flashman Papers. It pokes fun at all the masculine virtues she claims to be tired of, but it's still overwhelmingly masculine in outlook despite that.
>>25026193Well I have a huge cock but no money so I know that can't be true
>>25026246I am an absolute autist and multiple women including exes have asked if I was diagnosed with autism and that I should have it checked out
it was easy to hate something that evolved while everything else was perfect, but what would you expect from the wonder miracle child?yes, on one hand it is better to be jealous and attack but imagine what you missed. i suppose the moral of the story is be careful of what you wish for, or it might just happen. in this space, it is better to be an adventurer and let things be bygones and pass you by.
