Unironically the most boring book I’ve ever read

oh my god donesmoking doesnt appreciate classic literature

you didn't like the 35 page chapter on whale science thats almost entirely innaccurate?

best chapter ive ever read

by faaar

I loved that part, but why did the author have the need to actually put a story in it. He should have just been descriptive of everything around him like he did in 90% of the book

man loves the sea

don't hate

you can't argue with that one

man really did love the sea

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Moby Dick. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of whale biology most of the jokes will go over a typical viewers head. There's also Captain Ahab’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes,

to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Moby Dick truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Ahab’s existential quest to hunt the Narwhal which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenevs Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Herman Melville’s genius wit unfolds itself.

What fools.. how I pity them.

i gotta tell you guys something

and this is actually really hard for me to admit ok

i never actually read moby dick

i only read the picture book version

i stopped at the whale chapter

but c o o l dude

cant believe donesmoking is a genius tho damn

The only book i started but never finished

thats crazy

you know what's a fantastic book ?

the princess diaries

The movie looks terrible…

.......................

princess diaries is a CLASSIC

and the book is even BETTER

i mean julie andrews as a queen???? mia thermopolis's whole character arc??? the drama with her friend??? a cat named louis the whatever tf it was

I’ll add it to my list :)

there's a sequal too

Uhh you had me at cat 😻

you ever see the cat returns??

No haha what is that?

Groovy!

its a cinematic masterpiece is what it is

also this piano playing is fucking insane

Brazilian music :D

what you like brazilian music now too

Played by a french string quartet!

Whst do you mean now too!?

first the rant about moby dick, now liking brazilian music....... are you like,, cultured???? cause..... that'd be kinda..... embarrassing \

y i k e s

honestly? getting censored is kinda heteronormative

truly

I have returned, reformed and a better man thanks to the fair judgement of the benevolent DJ Gigantor

our lord and savior, the friendly giant gigantor

Don’t forget to give a shout-out to your two biggest fans :)

im the friend

just gotta put that out there
