What the fuck was his problem?

>he wanted to be nabokov
Nabokov? In what way Nabokov?

He has a problem?

His weight
>>9187393
No one wants to be Nabokov, the dude lives in hotels.

Walrus-human hybrid
he's in love with the way words sound, to the point where he uses them out of context.

Since you are clearly an adjunct professor of Shit That Went Way Over My Head at Pleb-so-hard University, perhaps you could stoop to give an example of this ever being the case.

Not him, is 'Puppy' a reference to something? I feel like it is.
>>9189626
i feel like you're memeing for (you)s but i am genuinely interested in hearing you say the lexicographical intentions of the book of the new sun went over your head so please do that.
