you realize that IJ sucks, right? the reason you don't want to fucking read it and get distracted every god damn time is because it's a sub-par novel for sub-par ijits.

You know, I don’t want to be offensive. But ‘Infinite Jest’ [regarded by many as Wallace’s masterpiece] is just awful. It seems ridiculous to have to say it. He can’t think, he can’t write. There’s no discernible talent.
