[QUOTE=Lankist;17069355]And you aren't. [editline]04:04PM[/editline] In my opinion it is a matter of fact. In your opinion it is a matter of opinion. Stop forcing your opinion on me. [editline]04:05PM[/editline] I can't handle someone disagreeing with me so I'm going to go on a poorly written rant about how nobody should ever present a philosophy in conflict with my own. You can have an opinion as long as you don't say it. [editline]04:06PM[/editline] In case you haven't picked up I am making fun of you. [editline]04:07PM[/editline] I just want to make that absolutely clear before I might inadvertently offend you for forcing upon you the opinion that you have sand in your literary vagina. [editline]04:09PM[/editline] It's an opinion so you can't argue with it[/QUOTE] Who was it whining about ad hominem remarks earlier? You bloody hypocrite, before you might've had some semblance of sense, now you just need to stop. You're forcing opinions down other people's throats and then projecting that onto the same people you're doing it to. I never said you had to like HP Lovecraft, I never said anyone was definitively right or wrong. Honestly, go back to 4th grade debate class.

OP doesn't know talent.
[QUOTE=Trotsky;17076510]OP doesn't know talent.[/QUOTE] here's an idea you should consider shut up
[QUOTE=Trotsky;17076498] He has a law degree[/QUOTE] Surely you're joking [b]Edit:[/b] Also, by saying "blah blah blah OP sucks blah blah blah", you're really not any better than Lankist. Can the Internet not respect personal opinio-... oh yeah
[QUOTE=Magistrate;17076653]here's an idea you should consider shut up[/QUOTE] snappy
Never read the books but i know he was ugly as fuck
H.P. Lovecraft is possibly the greatest author of all time.
[QUOTE=Lankist;17073902]Sergent Sandy Vagina arrives on the scene GOD forbid people have a discussion! It is UNACCEPTABLE for people to have a point/counterpoint about a common topic, we should never cross-examine anything ever.[/QUOTE] Reporting for duty, sir. I disagreed with you. GOD FORBID PEOPLE HAVE A DISCUSSION drama drama drama
:munch: I fucking love you facepunch.

[QUOTE=Chippay;17077164]forum user 'trotsky' defends classist and racist -still unclear of who this trotsky character was in real life[/QUOTE] No one's defending his views on race or class. Only the fact that we think he was an awesome writer.
pretend i wrote a witty hitler analogy here then a pinochet analogy so people have to look on wikipedia to find out who he was
I know who Pinochet is. Take that [editline]11:20PM[/editline] Ho
NICE WIKIPEDIA TOOLBAR yeah
I think Lovecraft is very good. He's very descriptive and sets up a cool atmosphere. Also I like how he describes things that I can't even picture in my mind.
[QUOTE=Chippay;17077360]NICE WIKIPEDIA TOOLBAR yeah[/QUOTE] Nuh uh. I learned who he was when I read House of the Spirits in AP Lit Now look that shit up ho [editline]11:23PM[/editline] Unless you know what it is and we can be Chile bros

[editline]11:42PM[/editline] Honestly I'm not sure what spiky little creature crawled up your ass to make you this super serious about Lankist saying mildly provocative things. [editline]11:42PM[/editline] The fuck are you the new Facepunch Batman or something?
No, I'm the goddamn Batman.
Personally, I've never noticed a [I]lack of description[/I] in Lovecraft's work, so much as a [I]lack of exact description.[/I] He hands you the blueprints, but you build the monster yourself. What [I]you[/I] create in [I]your[/I] mind will surely be more personalized and personally terrifying than anything a completely separate author could put into words. It almost kinda sorta reminds me of [I]Eraserhead;[/I] the fears are indiscriminate, yet clearly terrifying. Only you can say what each surreal scene means, and in doing so, create your own [I]personally[/I] horrifying version of one standard set of visions.

[QUOTE=Trotsky;17077874]Personal views =/= talent determination[/QUOTE] ah yes, that pinochet fellow certainly was great, shame about his personal views ah yes, that hitler fellow certainly was great, shame about his personal views ah yes, that mussolinni fellow certainly was great, shame about his personal views ah yes, that idi amin fellow certainly was great, shame about his personal views
You're an idiot.
[QUOTE=Trotsky;17078173]You're an idiot.[/QUOTE] Haha
[QUOTE=Trotsky;17078173]You're an idiot.[/QUOTE] :irony: [editline]04:36AM[/editline] don't worry bro, i see why you name yourself after a communist yet still defend known racist and classists you just don't know what communism is communism is not a chocolate bar trotsky
Honestly though Hitler [i]was[/i] a pretty cool dude if you just shrug off the whole killing 6 million jews part
