(Anonymous) 2013-04-20 01:45 am (UTC)(link)But good job recognizing that my taste in books has nothing to do with my attitude. You're swell ♥
Re: Literature
(Anonymous) 2013-04-20 01:54 am (UTC)(link)You've ridiculed someone else for getting "defensive," and yet you're acting just as defensive and getting just as butthurt, if not more.
Re: Literature
(Anonymous) 2013-04-20 01:55 am (UTC)(link)I don't know how you don't see this. Pretentious doesn't just mean bad, it has a more specific meaning than that. And I can't see any way in the world how you can think something is pretentious - how you can think that literary books pretend to distinction and depth and seriousness that they do not in fact have - without also seeing something negative about people who like it. It's fucking impossible. That word is an insult. There's no way around it.
It's like if I said "YA fiction isn't fun, it's childish." That's literally the exact equivalent of your statement. Would you seriously say "that's just an opinion, it's not an insult"? Of course people are going to act like you insulted them when you fucking insulted them.
Re: Literature
(Anonymous) 2013-04-20 01:55 am (UTC)(link)read what you want; books are great, and if people are reading them, that's even better!
no one in this thread thinks you're "dumb" or "lesser" for not enjoying literature.
they do, however, think you're an asshole for making generalizations about people who read litfic, and implying that the only reason anyone reads it is to "look pretentious". you've also continued to insult most of the people in this thread.
you're getting angry first, and not stopping to consider a different point of view - that maybe, people who read litfic read it becuase they enjoy it in the same way you enjoy YA.
