>"So as the Internet grows in the next 10, 15 years, and virtual reality pornography becomes a reality, we're gonna have to develop some real machinery inside our guts... to turn off pure, unalloyed pleasure. Or, I don't know about you, I'm gonna have to leave the planet. 'Cause the technology is just gonna get better and better. And it's gonna get easier and easier... and more and more convenient and more and more pleasurable to sit alone with images on a screen, given to us by people who do not love us but want our money. And that's fine in low doses, but if it's the basic main staple of your diet, you're gonna die. In a very meaningful way, you're going to die."

This is why it's important to watch film and learn to appreciate art instead of consuming Hollywood cash-cows or capeshit flicks endlessly like a putrid pleb of a brainlet.

he didn't predict that everything would be free due to piracy

Anybody who has seen the film. Is the movie worth watching?

Yeah, you can tell it's made on a budget, but it has some great dialogue and incite into writing, depression, tv, etc. Also interesting to watch Segel play this type of character.

I would take my NEET life of shit posting over a common life before 1800 any day.

As far as I'm concerned I'm doing better then 99% of people that ever lived.

I don't care. I can't wait until I can fuck every woman I want in my head.

it's actually a nice little movie unless you get autistic about muh authentic DFW

eisenberg is annoying but manageable

It will be an illusion

...

I will be real. Electric signals are real.

>le hack post modernist man

It's all an illusion man, life is but a dream

Insight.
Just b urself

for the authentic dfw autists, watch this instead

fuck jason segel's stupid face, it would've been good without him in it

It was very comfy. It kinda sucks DFW's dick the whole movie through but I still recommend it.

Fucking pleb. The real thing isn't that good to begin with. It's just physical and chemical stimulation. Drugs already far surpass sex. Technology will too in the future. If you think tech can't beat a warm wet whole between a mediocre-looking (in most cases) girl's legs, you don't really understand the power of technology or the human desire to push technology.

Never heard of this guy (I'm a complete book pleb) but I like these quotes. I don't want to go to /lit/ so Sup Forums where should I start with him, or what are his best works?

start with the greeks

If you read any fiction other than Shakespeare, you should kys you'reself.

How does such a smart, articulate guy write such terrible fiction? His essays are amazing but his books read like something an extraordinarily talented undergrad student would churn out.

>not the Bibble

He warned us about the dangers of ironic memes.

more like the babble haha

this.

they want our money, but we dont have to give it them

>He didn't read the cliff notes

fpbp

to start read "the broom of the system" that should give a feel for the style, if you are into books, his big heroes were pynchon and delillo and his style of "hysterical realism" (even though this term is retarded) is somewhat similar to them.

He also wrote a ton of essays which i believe can be found online that are another good starting place

lynchnet.com/lh/lhpremiere.html here is one of them about david lynch thats quite a good read

Infinite Jest is his so called "masterpiece" but i would not start with that cuz its really long and very idiosyncractic.

I stopped watching tv in 2006. I haven't rented/bought a DVD since 2008. Never bought any Blurays. Stopped going to the cinema 6 years ago. Thanks, YiFy.

>The real thing isn't that good to begin with.
I will laugh at you after you take of you autistic goggles just to find yourself sitting in a dark room that reeks of cum, while I will cuddle in bed with a cute girl while we both breathe deeply, still shake a little and enjoy the warmth of our naked bodies.

faggot has blood on his hands

Sure, if you're down with the whole DFW thing. Jason Segel was better than expected desu senpai.

Visit /lit for dave posting. Probably the best meme they ever came up with besides katie

who /nodiscernibletalent/ here?

Understanding that sex is overrated is something people who are experienced at it believe--whereas your sentiment, that it's so good it's impossible to replicate that kind of pleasure--is something a teen inexperienced with sex would believe.

I've had sex with multiple attractive women, and even more mediocre-looking ones, despite your memes about "being in a dark room and masturbating." There's literally no way technology won't be able to outdo the pleasure a good-looking girl can.

It's just sheer ignorance of technology or teenage inexperience with sex to argue otherwise.

Does anybody any longer doubt that VR is the end state of the human race? Why would abstain from the pleasures your ancestors dreamed about and strove toward?

what about sexbots?

who came up with this quote? it's hilarious

roasties wlll have them outlawed before they're even perfected

It's not about sex itself, it's about the fact that no matter what, human being is sociable creature and intimate contact with others is something that everybody needs. No AI is ever going to replace this.

It doesn't last.

It's pathetic that your relationships are a stake against a hostile world. Shame on you.

youtu.be/pqmIAbHXr0Y

this guy is the reaction face king

Even this will be replaced. Real women are becoming obsolete. Deal with it.

Each to his own.

its some /lit/ meme that been around awhile i think there are also other variants of it

How does this picture make you feel?

If AI can replicate intimate contact or even exceed it in quality then, yes, it can replace it. For example, this webm is already superior to any relationship I've had with a woman.

Why did DFW wear that dumb bandana on his head

Sex can be ok.

It really is only better than fapping if 1) she's REALLY experienced and good at it or 2) you both have a deep emotional bond that heightens the physical pleasure.

Other than that most orgasms are better by yourself.

to keep his massive throbbing brain inside his skull

>you both have a deep emotional bond that heightens the physical pleasure.

>still not on Beaver Netflix

Is this what love is like?

Sex with someone you love feels better than with a random sloot.

The intimacy comes from the private contact that you both share that can't be explained to other people.

Trust me, just spending some time with a significant other is much more productive and better than cumming alone.

I suspect it feels something like in that webm, but I have no way of knowing until technology creates total sensory virtual reality.

It's on Amazon Prime.

>mfw he fell for it

DFW compulsively postured as a Midwestern working-class every-man, despite his ivy-league education and upper class background. I think he was insecure about his privilege.

this is why I avoid prostitutes

I've been thinking about this shit a lot lately. I really need to fucking cleanse myself of this shit but I do not have the discipline.

Not the one you're chatting with, but it's clear you're a sad git who has given up on ever developing a healthy, thriving relationship with another human, much less a female. You're equating pleasure with happiness, which is a fallacy only committed by the naive and selfish.

I heard it was because he didn't like the fact that he was balding

don't start with his fiction! try this!
goodreads.com/book/show/6751.Consider_the_Lobster_and_Other_Essays
I think some of the works in here can be found in audio format on youtube.

>git

it makes my donger come to an upright position

I like how this man speaks, he has a nice soft voice

That said I'm not familiar with his work at all, and I didn't really know who he was until I looked up this movie where Segel plays a serious role

Post more DFW maymays

...

Just be a good guy, user.

As someone who used to frequent escorts and now frequents AMPs, having a great orgasm by someone who knows what she's doing is pretty awesome from time to time.

I still want a gf

having fun is fine, but you can't fuck your way into a personality.

Perfect.

For some reason he really reminds me of Elizabeth Warren

...

lesbian librarian mom aesthetic,

In the beginning I think it was because he was sweating a bunch from the spotlights when doing readings and tv interviews, then after a while it became something that comforted and soothed him

As a fan of DFW, and neither a fan of Eisenberg nor Segel, I did enjoy this movie, some really good interactions, some awkward moments , but overall a good little film, the ending was superb in my opinion if you're familiar with DFW writings. I almost wanted to hate it, but I didn't

It disturbs me just how close to his writing style this is.

he has the butch dyke facial aesthetic

It's not too hard to write/emulate his style, but if you're trying to make a cohesive book out of it you might struggle

>you will never entertain a smart German girl for an hour while talking about philosophy

>tfw Sup Forums is too fucking dumb and pleb to discuss Infinite Jest and it's literally impossible to talk about it on /lit/
It's their American Psycho and TDKR

Un-Ironically go to Reddit

Agreed.

The endorphins high only lasts an hour.

He wanted to. E sn icon and it worked

...

this reads like every single article in McSweeney's

Is this a /lit/ thing? Attributing a faggot Green brother's quote to DFW?

That's just low.

I'm prettty sure he didnt say that

>faggot Green brother
Guess who has a bestseller. Guess who hasn't hung himself from his patio rafters. Hank Green has plenty to say; the dead, on the other hand, can't say anything.

The Great Reckoning will destroy the world before any of that happens.

>putting the words of a faggot in the mouth of a dead man
I got madder than I should have

it's a meme, that's a john green quote

can't wait to put my faggot nuts in your mouth when you die.

you're a meme

trolled :)
