How will /lit/ react when he dies?

>>9615276
we've all become catholic so we can get him canonized. it's fine.

>harold bloom ph.d blahblahblah yale blahblah academic who never wrote anything worth a damn blahblahblah jew who probably would be a cunt to me and plot against me irl blahblahblah

I'd be like "huh".

I might actually read one of his books.

>>9615276
will he have multiple strokes that render him unable to speak, walk, defecate and make him scared and uncomfortable before he dies?
or will he just peacefully pass away?

Viking funeral in his Yale office.

Don't care.

This. He's going to convert on his deathbed, he would have already but Jewish academia would lynch him

YES! Also, I'm new to Harold Bloom, give me some stuff on him

re-read that James Wood article about him

>>9616023
Read the Shakespeare book to see his method in action. It's a masterpiece of misreading. Hamlet chapter is particularly funny

>>9615849
That's not true lol

>>9615276
Beat my breasts. Shear my locks. Tear my tunic. What else?

>>9616035
WHICH / ONE

>unable to defecate
Sadly, it don't work that way.

>>9616109
bowel obstruction m8
he's had weight issues

Probably with supreme respect, for once. Love or loathe him he's been too huge a part of this board.
His latest tome is among his best, by the way- if a marginally wateted down affix to his wonderful earlier stuff.

/lit/ is unable to handle the basic indifference of the world. So rather then being upset or feeling anything genuine, we will quickly mock and disparage the deceased, turn him and his life's work into a meme within seconds, and go on pretending it doesn't hurt.

You remember how all those faggots killed themselves when Judy Garland died? Maybe some of that.

lit will react like they react to everything else, like a bunch of faggots

vendler is quality but too systematic for /lit/ to absorb and meme properly

>>9615276
Clamor for the autopsy report to put up next to DFW's

>>9615276
Purge of DFW fags for conspiracy to assassinate Bloom.

>>9616023
Just his lists. Dont bother reading his book on the canon, its all just justifying his choices.

>>9615276
Sticky

I know irreverence is key here but fapping over his death is taking it too far desu
