this shit

Is this really bad??? I heard of it recently and wanted to read it just because the guy say I'd prefer not to all the time or something like that

Felt like an AI aggregate of every first year comparative religious mythology course without invention nor subversion.

No longer human…a very boring book about a very uninteresting character.for those who never read, the theme of the book is “reeeee normies I must fuck whores and being and addict reeeeee”.

It's basically an 1850s version of Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

Bartleby is undoubtedly one of the best short stories ever written, and might actually be the best, bar none. Ignore >>24576472 he doesn't know what he's talking about.

Ok I'll ignore ops opinion then, thanks

It's not based trust me. Having a gf that you love and loves you is so much better than having sex with prostitutes. At least for me

It’s about non-violent resistance to authoritarianism. Bertleby never outright refuses a command nor does he ever resist anything. He is like a Jesus character who responds “I would prefer not to do such and such a thing” which is merely a declaration that he feels he wouldn’t enjoy doing said thing. This is different from actual refusal which is confrontational.

Tl;Dr- it’s a modern Jesus parable

His dad is a powerful attorney with many important connections in Big Pharma (serious people who make sh*t happen — cursing is undignified), better watch what you say. They will backtrace you

"Journey to Become a True God." It's a machine translated xianxia knock-off written by some sea monkey or some indian on Webnovel. The author doesn't seem to speak english at all, and he literally paraphrases every sentence two or three times to bloat his word count. Absolutely asinine.

Honorable mention for my 8th grade table neighbour, who gallantly volunteered to read a dreadful story he wrote to the class in which he describes two people kissing in considerable detail until the teacher cut him short because it had nothing to do with the assignment.
