Oh is it usually? I had no idea anyone else felt this way :>
Yeah, people in my lit classes (and that includes me) go crazy whenever they get extra support for a particular interpretation. Especially the controversial ones.
Not even close, academics is filled with people like that. It's part of why I like it so much.
Presumably they have normal interests instead of whatever tf this is though :>
I mean one of my friends (who does have adhd admittedly) literally ordered in a book (written in old english) from another university just so they could read a section of it that included a list of cat names. Even though they already had the list, what they wanted was the context for its existence.
I myself ordered in a book once just for 2 chapters on the subject of a particular cult for my research.
Obligatory "you think the cat names list just fell out of a coconut tree?!" but that's rad, uncritical support. Cool cult?
Shit cult but very amusing. The guy who wrote and made the cult called it a rosicrucian society but it had 0 relation to historical rosicrucians which were what I was looking into so it was kinda useless. Dude was super misogynistic too, honestly the entire thing was wild and I had a great time reading it and seeing how insane it got. Motherfucker said philosophy was 'castration of the mind' though so I can never forgive him.
Lmao, castration of the mind. Sounds typical otherwise though, many such supee misogynist cult leaders...
