We're having a lit meetup in New York on Saturday.Sick of shallow book talk and blank looks when you bring up serious literature or philosophy? If you’re in or near New York City, come to the NYC /lit/ meetup on Saturday, July 18th. We’re here for raw, unfiltered discussion. Meet in person and say what you mean.If you're interested email nyclitmeetup45@gmail and I'll give you the place and time.
Every time I go to one of these meetups I never even poke my head in. I'm always just a table away with my head buried in one of the Big Lit 3. I'm always hoping one of you guys will say hi, or ask me what I'm reading, or what my favorite chapter of Ulysses is.But now it's been a few times and no one has said anything to me. I'm beginning to get a little disillusioned. Do they even know that I'm reading one of the meme trilogy? It's like I'm not even there and the craziest part of all this is I'm a really hot girl. Pic related is what I look like.
If you live in NYC wouldn't it be easy to find a book club or someone to talk about books with that aren't channers?
>>25405937Why would you want to do that?
>>25405937that sounds like a recipe for ugly women, trannies and faggots
>>25405937These are literally all women or leftists. I'm in a bunch of them and they're just not interesting. Everyone is afraid to say slurs or anything serious about the writing; every actual writer in NYC is, while not explicitly right wing, predatory and dominant and able to actualize themselves in a way that would never be congruent with a "girls get together and read for an hour then meet a new friend :)" sanitized situation.
>>25405900What happened to the boston lit meetups?
>>25405937I've been to normie book clubs in NYC and they were boring because 90% of the people didn't read interesting books or have interesting thoughts about books. I don't regret it, tho.
>>25405900Can we do an nyc esoterik kantian meetup?
>>25405900ny clit meetup? sign me up
I just realized I could go to the NYC meetup.I could go to the Boston one.The Wikipedia page for my town says I’m right in the middle of those cities. Fuck that though. Imagine me, all these years on /lit/, over 10 to be exact, and even more than that on 4chan in general, glued to my screen, and not once have I seen these threads and thought hmm maybe I should go, but now I feel more confident about going outside and everything, and still, I would never want to hang out with you faggots.
>>25405935bait used to be believable
>>25405900Do one in late September and I'll come through.
>>25405935>I'm always just a table away with my head buried in one of the Big Lit 3Its called the meme trilogy you retarded foid
>>25406184This is the boston lit meetup
>>25405900I'll bring the brownies
HEY I'M READING HERE
>>25406867I was walking through Times Square one night and a crowd of tourists were just fucking standing there in the middle of the sidewalk. I was in a rush to catch a bus so coming up I let out a loud, "excuse me!" Then I heard one of them behind me go to the other tourists, "I'm walking here!" I should've turned back and yelled, "No shit, faggot!" God I hate tourists so fucking much
>>25407068I am going to visit New York and I WILL shout that
>>25405900Based>ny clit meetupWtf
>>25406831
>>25406202I live about half an hour from these NY meetups but I haven’t attended any because I’m a massive sperg
>>25406202Hartford or New Haven? What’s on the menu for today, fent or meth?
Will I be the only girl?
Do I have to have read a certain amount of books this year? Will I be bullied and turned away for not reading enough? I'm mostly a /mu/tant who comes here to find new stuff to read that isn't Burroughs or Kerouac
>>25407378No
>>25405900Why didn't you pick a better day, dude? Going out during this wildfire is retarded
>>25407749oh no the air quality is like smoking three packs of cigarettes a day instead of the usual two
>>25407749
>>25407489>Do I have to have read a certain amount of books this year? no everyone talks about stuff they read years ago mainly high school lit ya stuff like tolkien got ij so you will be fine>Will I be bullied and turned away for not reading enough?as long as you remember enough about the stuff you read to have an opinion about liking it or disliking it you will be fine there is not any deep discussion>I'm mostly a /mu/tant who comes here to find new stuff to read that isn't Burroughs or Kerouacyou will fit right in it is like a dorkier vu group sunglasses inside that sort of thing although one of the two times i went a douche in a suit showed up with his cross eyed gf and passed out business cards with a qr code for his yt channel where he plays a harp and reads poems
Do one in NY at the end of September and I'll come through.
>>25406458>>25407845Are you okay?
>>25407845Okay, it's being done. I hope you can make it anon.
>>25407749The wildfire smoke is over as of today, look out the window dude
>>25408094No it isn't you fucking retard... it's still in the air. It's smoke. Have fun with your toxic air.
>>25408124Look up the current AQI and then log off pal
>>25408094There was just a short reprieve, the thicker smoke is coming back later today
This nigger makes the meetups in the middle of the worst snowstorm of the past 10 years and then during the first weekend in years with 300 pm2.5 aqi.
>>25408166Make your own then FAGGOT
>>25408166yeah to filter out the whiners
For all these gay dating opportunities you queens put so much effort into, has one of you at least gotten laid once?
It's fucking storming out there but I'm a goddamn trooper, I'll still be there
>>25405900It's raining!!!
>>25408166High drama situations make it memorable you pussy. Here's what brings you to the table faggot ass>It was a day like any other, middling temperatures, slightly overcast sky, nothing going on, the usual faint odor of piss greeting me on the streets of New York.
>>25405900>post at anon forum>meet in real life??????
>arrive at the 1st venue fashionably late>ask front-end barista for organizer anon's party like at Lolita>has no idea what I'm talking about>freaks out because I refer to it as an "event">insists that they don't do events and quizzes me on what's happening>calm him down by clarifying it as a "small get-together">buy a drink and head in>wander around for a while looking for organizer anon>barely recognize him from last year>he brought along a non-4chan user friend (for some reason)>we palaver for a couple of hours guessing who of the people walking in and looking lost were anons>a handful of others join us over time>a few arrive unfashionably late>one (looked kinda like that classic trollface meme) keeps ducking out and turning back up again>anon mentioned above also brings a GF and you can kinda tell the relationship is not enriched by the experience>we stick around for a couple of hours or so then start hopping venues>a few generic restaurants and bars are visited>one venue is interesting, a members-only club>hear whispers about the place before we got there (this was better than Lolita for people projecting their fucking voices so everyone can actually hear what the fuck you're saying, only one consistently talked under his breath and was impossible to hear from more than two feet away, most mostly projected and were audible [for the most part])>still didn't understand where we were going at all>get asked by the doorman if I'm a member>freeze up>doorman senses my ignorance>trollface anon says yes I'm a member>roll with it, say yes, I'm a member>doorman goes, "In what sense?">"In the literal sense">for some reason the doorman accepts this and lets me in >find out later this club would cost me $3K a year to get into and I'd have to submit to some humiliating application process>interior is like a cross between an ornate library and a nightclub>walls decorated with actual books you can open and read>we waver between splitting up and gathering back together again, some of us reading wall books and avoiding conversation with any of the actual members fucking crowding the place like yuppie pigs at a trough>overall the conversation is much more political than literary, an interesting change of pace from Lolita>keep my political mouth shut most of the night until shortly before I leave when I talk up John Brown>at 11:45 PM go home to the insomnia attack during which I write these wordsThere's nothing quite like these gatherings. Very interesting to see those of us willing to cast aside anonymity, even if just for a night. I don't always know what the hell is being talked about (especially at very loud venues), but when I do, it generally grants fascinating insight into a unique vision of the world. I'll have free copies of CC for like 5 or 6 of you at the next one.Picrel is from the interesting venue. I left that copy of CC there. I wonder what will happen to it.
>>25408071Hell yeah. I'll be in town from, like, the 25th to the 30th, I think.
>>25406182you know how disgusting you are, right?>>25405935reading a book in public is not an invitation
>>25405900Well, how did it go? Should I check the local news?
>>25410421Embarassing shelf.
Strange, contradictory attitude towards photos. >Organizer says no posting any photos from the meetup online>He and another take probably 2 dozen photos in spite of thisWhat exactly was the purpose of that?Interesting time. Trite sentiment, but it would be accurate to say it was everything and nothing I expected.
>>25410646Did you not read my post? It's literally a decorative shelf
>>25407378No, but you will be the only girl(female), assuming you're not girl(male), which is a big assumption.
>>25410687I got to second base and that was unexpected
>>25409286dont forget >take photos
I'm going to rob you faggots.
>>25410421>>find out later this club would cost me $3K a year to get into and I'd have to submit to some humiliating application process>>interior is like a cross between an ornate library and a nightclub>>walls decorated with actual books you can open and readBretty cool but who the fuck pays 3K a year to get into a literal book club fucking new yorkers.
>>25410421Interesting. I actually saw a photo of this book recently. There it is on the left.
Pick a book off the shelf, anon.
I tried to go to an /o/ meetup years ago. Spent hours driving out to the first meeting spot, even brought a big tub of homemade cookies with very little human semen in them. Didn't find anyone. Asked the thread where everyone was with no response. Waited a while I went to the second meeting spot, waited more and never found anyone. Drove hours home. Later that night someone posts in the thread "yeah just a couple guys showed up at first so we decided to all go home and forget about it."Also tried to organize a /k/ meetup in my home state once. Everyone who responded to me was either underage, had a psych record and wasn't sure they could be around guns, or liked the idea of going but their social anxiety kept them from leaving their house.
>>25405900do another one around halloweenexcuse to dress up as characters from literature potentiallyi just want to wear a cool mask
>>25411085Me on the far left as usual >>25411094I wish photoanon had been around when she got her tits out>>25411100Aw, I missed this part
>>25411085>>25411094>I'm here for the gangbang
>>25411100>>25411094>>25411086>>25411085>go to meetup>get doxedwhat an ugly pack of retardsyou deserve the incoming fallout
>>25411085
>>25411208I'm literally crying, my life is over
>>25411094Didn't realize you guys hired talent for these things?
>>25411100Why are they so happy? This vexes me.
>>25411240You weren't there.
>>25411240Because their lives are extremely difficult and they have converted the few dollars they have into alcoholic relief for a few fleeting hours >>25411085Genius
>>25411100I'd throatfuck the one on the left. The rest are chopped.
>>25411100>these are the fags who call your taste shitgrim
>>25411212Found 3 of them online so far
>>25411529Make that 4
>>25411082https://luma.com/sovereignhouseholy astroturflook at the event photosthe trifecta
>>25406202imagine being such a basement dweller that you have to go to wikipedia to find out how far you are away from the two largest cities near you
>>25407068I punch the funders of cars when they are near me in the crosswalk. Sometimes guys get out of the car and we yell at each other for a while in the street. But as for tourists, I hate them so much only because they keep the african sidewalk purse merchants in business. I have no idea how retarded you'd have to be to buy a fake prada bag from an african on the sidewalk that will likely just rip or have the zipper break in two days.
Please only post photos of actual meetups, not fake pictures from some random person's IG story. I heard there were 3 anons there and 1 of them left after like 20 minutes. Everyone here is coping there is nobody that reads in NYC.Also the Boston meetups are 5x better.
>>25411580holy manlets
>>25411529I'd be very impressed if you couldn’t find me online given I'm holding my own fucking book in front of my face.
>>25411100About what I expected actually.
>>25411580did they at least gangbang the tranny?
>>25411702Didn't bother with the non whites and yeah it's on the vanity publishing binding
>>25411580can someone use ai to replace everyone here with attractive people?
>>25411100>Assorted mutts, a jew and a single huwite man.Yeah that tracks.
>>25411580>Boston manages to have this many white people and even the token minority trifecta of a black, asian and woman(man).Well done lads.
>>25411821It's only vanity publishing if you pay for it. Consumptive Cur is self-published.
>>25411484
>>25412239Anon I have very bad news for you
>>25411580This night was so much fun. I'm glad we all brought our DSLR cameras to the /lit/ meetup
