Lol

So this gets around a thousand upvotes on reddit.
Bloomin 'eck!

>Jim Butcher's The Dresden Files. Wonderful modern fantasy that reads just like a comic book.

christ

>Patrick Rothfuss is a wordsmith. Reading anything by him is just a joy.

golly we sure are smarter than them redditors arent we, fellow 4channers?

my taste and iq is clearly superior

Reading through these books, this is certainly not true. He find a nice turn once every hundred pages. You can also tell he spent much longer on the first book, he recycles descriptions constantly in the second book.

>bumping the two hour dead thread on it's way to page 10
reminder to kill yourself daily

Idiot scum

Yes, we are. Or at least I know I am. Trying to fool yourself that the fact you have good taste and high IQ doesn't make you feel good about yourself is just plain pretentious. Accept your vanity and your egoism and be free at last.

>/r/AskReddit/

what book recommendations do you want on a non literary board? it obviously will be mostly genre fiction

ask /r/ for books, i wonder what they would suggest

Do you guys remember the lel when reddit got a hold of our top books list?

>The Bible is #1??? WTF??
>Only one book isn't written by a white male!
>No Discworld??? WTF?

Then they all came here to shit up our board!

>Blood Meridian by Cormack McCarthy
>Cormack

ugh. Was waiting for this thread. It's got the 'serious' tag too.
>seriously spooked

same shit. Harry Potter, John Green, Dune, 1984, Into the Wild, etc.
/r/literature isn't that bad however. it provides what this board cannot

>Ctrl+f "confederacy"
>No results

Okay. A Confederacy of Dunces is honestly the end of Veeky Forums

link?

it's been here the whole time

A few months ago I actually dug around to answer this exact question in a thread where user wanted people to guess. Can't find it on warosu, but I think I got the same source

...

Does anyone have the list this user is talking about?

> Second Place : 1984
tfw

I'm actually grateful of Veeky Forums for introducing me to good literature

Know what you mean. It seems awful here sometimes, but every time I try to re-visit reddit and I just gag.

> Declaration of Independence

Why the fuck do you care so much about what leddit thinks? Let them have their shitty taste to themselves, don't bring that shit here.

The fact that you even browse reddit is enough reason for you to fucking kill yourself.

rate the red pill's taste in Veeky Forums.

Jesus Christ it's all self-help books

nah mang, they got the nietzschester, can't you see they know philosophy

u realized 'red pill' has two different connotations considering the context of Veeky Forums and the context of reddit right? I mean, both are equally pathetic echo chambers filled with angsty 20-something year old moral and social crusaders, don't get me wrong

but yea the Leddit version is about the dating game.

Just google "reddit Veeky Forums top books" They had several threads and one on imgur. I can't tell the difference between imgur and reddit desu. I'm disappointed I can't find that bible comment, maybe he (she??) deleted it, redditors can delete or edit posts any time they want.

Right here bud. I think this was one of the earlier, less good lists.

>the civil war c. 1925.

That's not when the Spanish Civil War took place shitlord. What an idiot.

life is too short to waste it burning with hatred for strangers

>self-help forum recommends self-help books
It's not surprising.

>The Bible
>Harry Potter
>Calvin and Hobbes
>Dr. Seuss
>The Declaration of Independence

He meant not /r/books.

The Bible is the most important single text in the Western canon. It's part of the foundation of modern society, along with the Greek and Roman texts. Everything is derived from either the Greeks and those that came after -- the Christians.

it doesn't matter

I think user's point was that the spread of books is rather ridiculous

Read what Schopenhauer had to say about false modesty.

Why the fuck do they do that? They seem like a bunch of faggots trying to sing some folk-y song together.

>David hume is verbose and academic
As if we needed more confirmation that redpillers were illiterate

Shan't.

>The Bible is the most important single text in the Western canon.
>implying that is why it's on the list and not for "The Good Book" reasons

Let's all vote for mine kumf

>good laughs
I cringe more than I laugh, it's disgusting.
