Yep, this is the kind of trash I expect somebody who was too dumb for DFW to read. Poop jokes, references to uncredentialed and uneducated meme-philosophers (N.B. DFW was actually credentialed and educated), and unfulfilled fantasies of power that distract from your tiny brain and the mediocre life it has given you.

Don't worry about him, Anon be mad.

Then fail not most carefully to peruse the books of the Greek, Arabian, and Latin physicians, not despising the Talmudists and Cabalists; and by frequent anatomies get thee the perfect knowledge of that other world, called the microcosm, which is man. And at some of the hours of the day apply thy mind to the study of the Holy Scriptures; first, in Greek, the New Testament, with the Epistles of the Apostles;: and then the Old Testament in Hebrew. In brief, let me see thee an abyss and bottomless pit of knowledge; for from henceforward, as thou growest great and becomest a man, thou must part from this tranquillity and rest of study, thou must learn chivalry, warfare, and the exercises of the field, the better thereby to defend my house and our friends, and to succour and protect them at all their needs against the invasion and assaults of evildoers. - Rabelais

Even Rabby suggests you start with the Greeks.

I've read it, it's pretty good, I should re-read it soon in a different translation.
