Does anyone else think that this is THE most fucked up excuse for pretentiousness and petty point-scoring that they've ever seen? Good Lord. Those bloody "beautiful people" communitites are less pointlessly cruel and boring than this.

OMG PRATCHETT IS *SO* NOT LITERATURE

OMG JANE EYRE YOU ARE *SO* MAINSTREAM

I'm so glad my mind doesn't work like that. I kind of like enjoying books.

OMG.
these people make me want to cry. the logic seems to be "i've never heard of anything on your list, but it seems deep. YES!"

maybe. but what if they love her? i wouldn't be all that surprised if they did.

maybe - but even her beloved dostoevsky is considered both 'obvious' and 'typical'. i think ebony vs the bookwankers would be the most hilarious battle of the century.

I'm always amused by people who needs other folks to tell 'em their tastes are OMG SO GOOD. Especially when they picks them for the purpose of admiring them exactly.

I hate people like that.

"You read books by people who are still alive? How very...trendy."

Ah, shaddap.

MY GOD. That is seriously fucked up. WHO EVEN WANTS TO BE ON THAT COMMUNITY??? I'm sorry, but I believe that people should just read whatever the hell they want to read.

On a side note, everyone watch the gymnastics on the TV. So cool. *adores*
