      that means stupid people buy the kinds of books you read.

      every book i own is used and it only has names written in pen, and pencil marks for comments as the page

      Imagine buying used books. What do you also date girls who arent virgins? Bunch of broke ass peasants.

        This, but unironically. If you're poor, then just pirate or borrow books. Actually paying for someone's sloppy seconds is beyond moronation.

        Yes if she manages to fool me into thinking she loves me, which is pretty easy to do.

    they always underline the most nonsensical trivial sentences, which shows the average understanding and taste of the "lit enjoyer"
    on a sociopsychological level it's pretty interesting

    Seriously. Get a small notepad and write anything of importance in that, jot down the page number, whatever. What idiot writes in a book?

      A homosexual. I usually dont even use that word, but whoever did that shit in the OP is a fricking homosexual starved for attention. I bet s/he wanted someone to find it in their library and go "damn so many notes, you're very bright and special!"
      Dunno why but people ruining books like that make me insanely angry

        It's David Foster Wallace you fricking moron

        You can see that he's literally coming up with the idea for The Pale King within the fricking marginalia of a book by a writer he was heavily inspired by.

        No one will ever read your marginalia because you don't write anything worthwhile

          So? I'd whine if it was Tolkien who did that. Did he not have paper or a notebook?

    People only do that for the purpose of posting those pics on tumblr and instagram.

    If you did that with every book you start reading, you'd read 1/100 of the books you can actually read in your lifetime.

    because they are low iq/have unrefined thoughts and must write their annotations to remind them of what thought they had when they read a sentence the first time.

    I can think of 2 points here:
    1: Because they can and dont care
    2: because they know it makes others seethe (which it did in your case)

    When it's a beat up used book I picked up somewhere, I unironically like this. Nice comfy added touch. The books been around man, has its own story outside of the one written by the author.

    The degree of margin writing in the image you share is a bit excessive, but writing in books is actually a good practice. Highlighting and underlining serve no purpose whatsoever. I don't mind when my used books have notes in the margins, but hate when a book is full of underlining or highlighting. Highlighting/underlining makes you feel like you're doing something when you're really not.

    highlighting and underlining is just pure homosexualry, but I don't see anything wrong with writing notes in the book itself
    they help so much when you re read them
