Have you read anything else of DFW?

if you came in space would you have technically created an extra terrestrial civilization?

i've read his other short stories in that collection, and infinite jest

sadly, no

How do you not know it's a joke when it reads like: She lets me burn the back of her legs with matches. She's a really swell gal. I like her.

HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW IT'S A JOKE WHEN YOU'VE READ HIS OTHA WORKS.

back to the lab

I'm actually mad.

no, that's called discussing random stuff on a forum

He didn't want to write like Jack or Salinger he was annoyed with the style BEE, Didion, and McInerney were popularizing.

bro that is so brutal

yeah but now my undies are all crusty with blood :(

So he took the minimal, heartless style and went overboard with it. Making it almost read like a children's book level of comedy.

Fingers, it was over when you said this:

[QUOTE=fingers mccoy;18810979]in what way is it making fun of it

seemed to be advocating it to me[/QUOTE]

I'm not gonna let you backpedal. You simply didn't grasp the concept and are now trying to lead me to your superfluous argument.

You thought DFW was advocating the 80's literature brat pack.

Read that over again and tell me to take you seriously and I will humor you

*back paddle
