Is maturing as a reader, and at the same time becoming an intellectual, the act of stopping reading fiction of any degree?
Is maturing as a reader, and at the same time becoming an intellectual...
No
Nope
No
>try to read nonfiction
>get bored and read fiction instead
true intellectuals just hoot and holler at the moon or, if it's occulted, the nearest bright lit source
No. You just have a delusion.
Whew, almost bingoed
now how many did you not check out of shame?
jesus fucking christ you had to ruin my night
Incredibly stupid notion, you've got a long way to go
That's a meme you (gifted) idiots
not quite there
those traits have nothing to do with being "gifted," and have everything to do with being a clinical narcissistic
get it? it's like bait! then they go in, and get fucking told
and i really hoped that i was gifted :(
Walking on eggshell
What do I win
An extremely sad and unfulfilling life.
I should start drinking, taking drugs and engaging in risky behaviors then
my grade school had a gifted program. one or two times a month we would go to a different building and be taught by a different teacher about tons of thinks like M. C. Escher, ants, and adaptability of humans. Sometimes we would go on field trips to nearby battlefields, art museums or nature reserves (this was in a suburb outside of philly). I thought I was special but slowly began getting paranoid it was some sort of special ed. Still not sure what to think of it to this day.
This whole image equals to being shot with a shotgun in the neck.
>non existent motivation
>risk taking behaviour
How? Non motivated risks..
Moving from an elementary school where I was bored to tears to one with a gifted program was a godsend. Being around stupid people in middle and high school gave me an inflated sense of self-worth that led to the complete destruction of my self-esteem when I realized I wasted my formulative years
Here's another Dank Meme for you all.

well, given what we eat, and the amount of petroleum products everywhere, you're probs gonna get cancer real young.

Maturing as a reader is having read so many classics that any new ficition just repeats ideas youre already familiar with. It becomes bingo very much like the theme of this thread.
Used to have many of these, but not anymore. Tbh you cant have any of these after 18.
>you cant have any of these after 18.
lmao you'd be surprised
fucking retards, ALMOST ALL OF THESE WILL APPLY TO EVERYONE AT SOME POINT IN THEIR LIVES.
Basically the opposite, refusing to read non-fiction because you think that's mature is prime pleb Com Sci major.
A mature reader is one who no longer enjoys reading, finding all existing literature beneath him.
not everyone is as shitty as you, user
lmao
