Why are you guys so fucking hostile to a man that can read 1600 pages a day? I figured I would be right at home here. It depends on the subject matter ofc. Moby Dick took a month and a half because I had to read every page like 16 times (I counted) before I could understand the damn thing. World War Z, read it in a day. The more complicated the prose, the longer it takes to read. Modern works are usually a snap

>>24537229 (OP)
I've never even met you, pal. Maybe it's accusations like that

>>24537254
I'm talking about the board in general. You know, like how people do

>>24537229 (OP)
If you have to re-read something in your own language to understand it, then the book is out of your range.

>>24537298
I like things out of my range actually. How else are you supposed to learn and stretch your boundaries? Moby Dick was wrote in the late 1800s. Ofc it's going to be difficult

>>24537300
It's only difficult if it's out of your range. Half ass reading books you don't fully understand doesn't make you smarter.

You sound insecure
sage & hide

>>24537323
I'm not half-assed reading anything. I read it until I understand it, no matter how long it takes

>>24537325
I wish I gave a fuck about what you think about me, life, or anything, really. But I don't. You "sound" gay and fucked up but does that really mean a goddamn thing? NOPE. fuck off you bitch-made faggot

>>24537371
>I read it until I understand it
This would be impressive if you were ESL.

>>24537371
>I wish I gave a fuck about what you think
>Makes entire post about giving a fuck and asking why

>>24537371
yeah you are definitely insecure

>>24537990
So fucking what

>>24538150
Bitch, what lmao I'm probably the least insecure out of all you bitches

>>24537229 (OP)
I don't think anyone ever understands a book to completion. The mind necessarily changes between reads, and when it interfaces with the same story again, the resultant combination of mind and book is different. This is all to say that you should seek discourse instead of understanding, since the latter is always a function of time and person.

>>24537229 (OP)
But that's wrong

Most cringe dude on lit right now, and there are nazis here

>>24540180
Most /lit/ posters in the current day do not read at all.

>>24540199
I've read more than you. Guaranteed

I like Subterraneans more.

I think you project too much to get any value out of this website

Why would you brag about something like that? Kudos for reading fast I guess, but it just sounds weird to me. Are you saying that you're better than others cause you can read faster than some other people? I thought reading was to be enjoyed and wasn't a contest of speed.

>>24540799
im not op, you are simply stooping to his level by arguing like this

>>24540857
Then no one asked you, loser!

>>24540990
and yet i replied, how curious

>>24540180
Cry about it more if possible, but I really doubt you could, bitch

>>24541710
I can smell your breath through your word choice and it smells rotten

>I read a shitty pulp book in a day and no one is on their knees lapping at my nut??? What is wrong with this place?

>>24542108
I read three books a day, you fucking uncultured swine. You have yet to even tell ONE book you've read in your LIFE. stfu, faggot

>>24537229 (OP)
are you reading your mother's daily client list that's that long, retard?

Sceptical about this page count but whatever. However since you've already admitted to being some form of dyslexic who has to read the same page 10+ times, if you count each reading as a separate page actually hang yourself

>>24542203
>uncultured swine
Cliche language so
>I read three books a day
I doubt it

>>24542203
One book, that was written in the late 1800s. One.
