be me friend is talking about a book he’s been reading sounds super cool from how he describes it awesome magic and fighting and great plot etc etc etc look up the title later its a fucking chapter book What the fuck is it with these authors, who come up with such great ideas but then dont have the willingness to make it a manga or even a graphic novel? Fuck my life, I got excited over nothing
People who hate chapter books, I want to see their reaction to books that don’t have chapters. Just one giant wall of text. Plenty of books are like that. And I’ve never had the courage to start one.
It looks like you tried to transcribe the greentext and include the > symbols. Lemmy uses a markdown interpreter thingy, so it got formatted as a quote.

In order to show those, put a backslash \ in front of it.

EDIT:
Also the markdown thingy is super disrespectful to newline characters (enter/return key).\> Typing

In order to get it to actually put stuff on new lines you have to put two spaces after the sentence. Even the last one. I’m gonna use dashes to represent spaces on account of them being invisible otherwise.

This is exactly why Oda is household name and nobody knows who James Patterson is.
I’ve obviously heard of Oda but it’s weird to mention some random asshole who isn’t a writer for the second.
(Apparently he’s actually quite nice and has established literally hundreds of scholarships)
That man is an entertainer of the highest caliber, and that self-sacrificial act done purely for the laughs is something I miss in other forums, as people “take themselves too seriously”.👌
