The worst part of writing in library books is when someone really dumb had the book before you. I got Light in August out of my University library and there were entire paragraphs underlined with notes like "racism!" and "symbol!". Thanks retard. Who are these people that they don't have other paper to take notes on?

maxnmona posted:many readers of literature do so outside of an institutional setting in which they are forced to read good writing in exchange for a paper they believe will get them money and social standing. many of these readers have even graduated from college and are no longer in any sort of academic institution at all (I went to college.). Actually, literally no one would read anything other than fantasy & sci-fi if given the choice.

LooseChanj posted:Well why are we swamped with such things? I imagine it's mighty discouraging when you're looking to discuss War & Peace and only get a couple replies while the grrm thread is clocking a couple hundred a day. Especially when those replies are poo poo posting trolls. People have different tastes, and it's not surprising that there are popular convergence points like grrm. What is this supposed to mean?
