Thoughts on the booksmaxxing trend that's taken off recently?

SIMIAN BON-VIVANT: What did you just say ?

LUMINOUS LOZI: Do not worry young one. It was only the little voice of an insect. We need not concern ourselves with the passings of a poisoned world.

>Visible back pocket Foucault
Is this the literary equivalent of thugs and punks advertising their willingness to bottom by wearing saggy pants?

If somebody is reading Foucault in public there's a 95% chance they don't actually read
If somebody is "booksmaxxing" there's a 100% chance they're not reading unless they're a woman reading smut

>>24634453 (OP)
Does everything need to be some faggy trend or movement now?

>>24634453 (OP)
What does booksmaxxing mean? Reading as many books as possible or being pretentious about reading difficult books?

First would be nice.
Second would be cringe as fuck. But it would be nice if the demand for actual good books would rise and they would sell them in bookshops.

But it probably is the second one. But who tf could read Foucault or similar shit in public? In couldn't take good notes and couldn't concentrate well. So no shot this guy actually read this.

It's just a tend among young people who want to celebrate their love of literature

This the new handkerchief code?
Derridas' difference and repetition tucked into the back of your jeans for an interracial orgy?

BIG BARBOZA: Take heart, Lozi. I have seen their species' extinction in the central flame.

I mean, there are worse trends out there for sure...

why is carrying a book with you book maxting

YOUNG THINKER: In the West, balance is a foreign concept. Everything must be driven to it's utmost extent; one's mammaries must be the largest, one's phallus the same; it is not enough to read books — one must "bookmaxx." This disproportion has resulted in the occident devolving into a menagerie of grotesque displays, with social media as their self-locked cage. Through their chemical streets they parade their perverse overcompensations proudly, and take the hooting of their fellow inmates as praise.

That's not booksmaxxing. He's only carrying one small book. He should be carrying at least six large books.

Real bookmaxxing

>>24634453 (OP)
I saw that guy on the subway, he sat down and the book got stuck up his ass. He went "WOWEEE" when it happened

>>24634584

>>24634497
finally I understand the LGBTQ rainbow flag.

just carry your phone with you? All epubs on it

>>24634453 (OP)
I have a pocket Bible I carry everywhere

Mogged by my booksmaxxing, cant sit anywhere because theres a book in every pocket. That just proves my dedication. What, you like to read? Doesnt look like it.

>>24634453 (OP)
so a bussy hairdo zoomer thinks foucault is good for toilet paper?

>>24634597
Don't h8. I'll step in for gay armpitbros even though I'm straight

SIMIAN BON-VIVANT: Look everymonki — I'm "papmaxxing"

*pap pap pap pap pap pap pap*

>>24634453 (OP)
I am unfamiliar with it (dont have social media). Is it just another form of performative reading?

>>24634492
is it fair to assume these people don't finish books?

I carry a large print hardcopy of Mason & Dixon with me every time I go to the gym

>>24635029
Are you reading it or just memeing? Been considering reading that book

>>24635051
A little of both, I bring books with me to the gym but not this one as of now.

sciatica maxxing. if this guy had the iq of a bona fide foucault reader he would simply download the epub and read on his phone. this is a fashion accessory (feminine behavior)

>>24634497
some of these are really subtle. the shitting on a bestial uncut latino student kind of subtle.

>>24634754
Yeah same. When I had a Kindle I would simply read on the Kindle app when not at home. Even now that I'm back to reading physical books I still take the care to dl the epub if I can so I can read it on my phone using ReadEra.

TikTok psyop. Urbanites just don't want to have their E-Reader robbed off them on the subway.

Stop making tiktok trends out of things that people normally do (carrying a thing with you in a pocket), I can't do anything anymore without worrying that I'm perceived as part of some fucking online clique.

binding a foucault book to the exact place which accumulates the most sweat on a male body. Is this how he should be read? experience?
