I tried to use them in my journal paper but my supervisor removed them in his edit. I know he thought they were pretentious.

Disregard the chart and just start with Golden Pavilion or Patriotism. Sailor is a chore to read.
So... why did he read again? He never truly answered and I wanted to know.

You could say that Jeff McGregor is an interesting man.
But he was also a massive faggot. Everyone knew that.

Despite that he just wanted to live a quiet life.

davy... easy on the irony

One of the things that has turned me off DFW is his penchant for social commentary, or maybe the style in which he delivers it, but he knocks it out of the park right here. Sums up the boomer generation's childishness and unserious attitude toward art and how postmodernism was really just about rebellion and trashing western culture because the boomers were a brainwashed group of idiots that were disconnected from their past by mass media and told they were creating this new thing that turned out to be nothing more than self-destruction promoted by the jews. Is his social commentary usually this good?
>>9798510
His social commentary on literature and the state of art is usually insightful. His work is another matter but the man is worth lending an ear to otherwise.
I need this book.
