Tired of talking with proles? Feel your mind exceeds the boundaries of the groupmind shared by the unwashed masses? Yearning to break free of their plebian media? This guide will transform you into a cranky, urbane, sophisticate who doesn't even want friends. Wearing black, sporting a cane, and living in basement apartments are optional. In fact, through this guide and its media, you can learn just what kind of people-hater you would like to become. This guide will take you beyond simply reading post-modern Japanese novels, listening to IDM (Intelligent Dance Music), and viewing silent German expressionist films. It will show the heights of loathing homo sapien sapiens. I hope random chance in a cruel, meaningless world is on your side.

And if you aren't feeling alienated and special enough after consuming all this media, you should move to Japan or Germany and refuse to learn their language or culture. Just watch their films and don't interact.
