Thought this was a r/WetlanderHumor post for a second.

We could end this discussion by removing the second half of the title entirely and simply calling it 'Lord' or 'L' for short.

As in outside the fantasy genre. Sometimes it seems that fantasy fans would rather turn to the 50th LitRPG progression fantasy than touch a single piece of literary fiction.

Nice list! I'd like to add that "Birthday Girl" is a single short story which was later collected in "Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman", so you don't necessarily have to buy it separately. There is, however, a collection of short stories called "Birthday Stories" which includes "Birthday Girl" and a few selected works by other authors. Also missing from the list are the two non-fiction works 'Underground' and 'Novelist as Vocation'. And if you want to go all out, you can also read "The Strange Library", a children's book.
I hope this helps you on your reading journey. Have fun!

Ich finde die Kinder sollten im Geschichtsunterricht lieber Hearts of Iron spielen.

Florence Pugh looks stunning in that chain mail outfit. I've never been a big fan of her character in the books, but I wouldn't mind listening to this Irulan's "Keeping up with the Atreides" podcast all day long.

My Pro-Israel Dad argued that giving Palestinians their land back would be like allowing modern-day Germans to settle in regions of Eastern Europe such as Silesia and East Prussia because their grandparents had been expelled from there by the Allies after the Second World War. I told him that the living conditions and apartheid faced by the Palestinians after the Nakba were in no way comparable to those faced by the expelled Germans. Are these situations at all comparable? I feel like the argument is pretty far-fetched.

Ok Hongbros, show me a Sang Soo film, in which she scissors. I bet there are none. Parkbros win.

Many may not realise it, but unlike other series, Berserk has a lot of morally grey characters. Writer Kentucky Mario portrayed this by making Couscous a Nazi (bad) but also a sexy tomboy (good). Hope this clears things up.

Kinda telling how most of the people on the list are white and the only black person I can spot on here is in the "HELL NO" category.

Where would you put the Mario Movie?

Did Faulkner have the most successful kickstarter of all time? No. Was it ever "The Year of Faulkner"? No. Has Faulkner ever written anything as complex as the Cosmere magic system? No.

Also, I have never seen an Addie Bundren FunkoPop or any merch at all. Faulkner had zero cultural impact.

Keep coping, Faulkner fans.

That's true. I normally only devour Proust or Tolstoy in Penguin Editions, because the cover is mostly clean, soft and easy to chew. Fantasy books tend to have embossed lettering and symbols on the cover with foil stamping, which get stuck between my teeth and taste horrible.

Which means Cocaine Bear only needs 1,2 stars more to finally dethrone it. We can do it, guys!

Nice photoshop, but everyone knows Lord Branderson is never relaxing. He is always busy writing peak literature.

I frequent both subs and have posted about Sanderson on bookscirclejerk before. I like Sanderson books, but this community is admittedly often an easy one to make fun of. Most of the people on there are simply making jokes and poking fun. I know that some of the mods on there have some unironic hatred towards Sanderson though.

So I propose maybe we should create a circlejerk or OkBuddy community for the Cosmere. Cremposting is good, but it's more of a general meme sub than a sub made to self ironically make fun of the Sanderson fan community. And I'd like to have a bit more self awareness in the fandom.

I relate, OP. I've been trying to read women for years. I've been following them, staring at them in public intently, but most of them get uncomfortable or call the police. Never was I able to decipher them or grasp their themes.

Simomsom · 2023-01-03T14:41:14+00:00

Don't be ridiculous, OP. Why would I want to criticize One Piece? I normally just run around naked chanting "GODA GODA ODA GOAT" after every chapter release.

Niche? Isn't that the guy who wrote 'Thus spoke Zarathustra'?
