>I thought keats was going to weigh in against that nasocartilaginous 'buncle in five, is what I thought he meant
Is this real?
>>9609943
I can't say for sure but by the end of the chat I was pretty fully convinced it was him.
>>9609943
yes it is and i dont know if you dont get it but he's just making a joke about what the countdown is referring to because the guy in the chat named keats was previously discussing carbuncles
>>9609963
I was following the conversation, but the way in which he speaks is wanky, even, quite, for fosty
>>9609981
he's talking to his fans. he's gonna throw in big words to impress them. they were typically a certain type of person before his mass-exposure. other than using nasocartilaginous it was okay.
>*sniff*
>dfw: koleko -- define "party." I never have understood the word as a verb

The more that I learn about DFW, the more disappoint I am that he killed himself. If I could find a man as articulate and intelligent as DFW, I'd marry him in a heartbeat.
>dfw: Mareesa -- I live in Illinois. Iowans do use just one hand a great deal, but not for clapping.
>dfw fap joke
>Yes, irony can suck. So, what, if anything, is "redemptive" about "Infinite Book"?
this is gold
>I don't think irony's meant to synergize with anything as heartfelt as sadness. I think the main function of contemporary irony is to protect the speaker from being interpreted as naive or sentimental.
dfw already had this bland irony twaddle down pat in the mid-90s. it's sickening
godamn dfw's trying to get that web 1.0 pussy i mean look at him neg Marisa here
>Marisa: you're making Descartes' error, deducing Agent from Event. Confluence could itself be Satan, or God.
fucking slick

What year did this chat occur, if it's real?
>>9610166
>https://archive.is/20130121235717/http://deadword.com/site/habit/wallace/dfwtrans.html
it's obviously real
and on the top of the page: May 17, 1996
>>9610143
This is from 2003. And yes, his irony magnum opus was written in 1991? anyway, e pluribus unum
koleko: hey dfw: if you were being executed, what would your final wish be?
>>9610171
do get pedantic with me faggot i will ironize you so hard
>valmar: Yikes, I hope he didn't put his head in the microwave!!
I enjoyed reading this.
No one's mentioned that he called women and men "canal water" yet
>>9610302
Okay, so what does that mean? Sorry, I'm not that much an intellectual here.
>>9610334
He thinks the book sucks
>>9610335
Thanks.
>>9610056
He wouldn't have given a shit about you.
>>9610431
You're just butthurt that a woman doesn't see you as being worthy of a long term commitment.
Hi everyone, how are you? I am FINE
>dfw: I've had some unpleasant nicknaames and monikers in my time, but nobody's ever hung "fosty" on me before.
>hung
He predict his murder?
>Tristero: A lobster walks into a bar and the bartender says sorry, buddy, we don't serve food.
BASED pynchonposter
>>9610495
Yes
>Keats: I used to think the word "trough" was pronounced "troff."
I used to think that too. I still think that way, but I used to as well.
>Tony: *sigh* I missed the whole thing
>>9610495
Absolutely based
Herb is best interlocutor, Marisa is off-putting
>>9610560
Marissa was the GOTIS
>>9610566
Can we at least agree that roxifresh was a dullard. And I don't know where to begin with Keats
>>9610566
Oh shit I thought GOTIS meant something like GOAT but now I see what you mean. Yes--total queen bee personality
poor Tony
>>9609888
why the fuck would i want to talk to that cunt? he wrote some awful shit and then killed himself. he's the kurt cobain of literature.
