a sincere one
cutie
The kind of guy who looks like this but not a catLike the kind of guy who would take an extreme closeup picture like this all blurry and amateurish and you might think he would use this picture on a dating profile but of course this guy would never do online dating not in a million years wouldn't be caught dead online dating but still taking a picture like this.

>>23370807>new sincerity as genreLargely>what type of person do you imagine?Imagining a person who hasn't realised that everything ever written is actually all true always, yet. "Infinite Jest" can put that "chink" in the armor of litterary conceptions. Whether it's initial attraction for its inherent pretension, setting (the kind as "world-building"), or some sort of perceived airs gained with admission to this exclusive web clubs for "know-it-alls". Best warm up read before "BOTNS", then that can be your favorite book, "Jest" will be second. Similar to your favorite teacher in High School who let you out of class early to pick up BK on the way to the skate park.Inb4 skit so

>>23370803The most insufferable self-righteous mid-witted pretentious pseudo intellectual I’ve ever met.

>>23370803I'm not close to being done with the book and I'm an unliterate retard so any deeper meanings will likely be lost on me, but I really liked reading about Orin putting glass tumblers on cockroaches to suffocate them
>>23371330>book and I'm an unliterate retard so any deeper meanings will likely be lost on meGood news: there are none.
>>23371250That just about covers it.

>>23370803My impression of this book from people posting about it on /lit/ is that it's difficult to read, maddeningly so, and what you get for your effort isn't necessarily worth it. Is that right?
>>23375508No, it's pretty accessible.
>>23370803What if my favorite book is The Pale King instead?
i got this book. dont think ill ever read it tho
>>23375508It's extremely accessible. There's a reason women love it.
Infinite jest is my favorite book. The book is a rorschach test. It may as well be a mirror. Don't like what you see? Not my problem. Well said! Thanks!
>>23376149This is something I can agree with
