How can you tell if someone is a literary genius without reading their writing?

Ask Harald Blome if they are "on the list". He'll understand.

Cut a small hole into the soft area just below their patella using a scalpel. At the point where the bone meets the quadriceps tendon, there will be a small cluster of ridges. If the number of ridges horizontally is greater than seven, the person is a literary genius, unless they have osteoporosis, in which case the test may not be effective.

Bananas are not an important motif in Gravity's Rainbow, but those possessed of the notion that they --the bananas-- indeed receive such treatment by Pynchon very obviously mark themselves as having never read the book; in this respect, the misconception serves as a valuable marker, among putative 'fans' or 'readers', of who might actually be full of shit w/r/t making it past the first fucking scene in GR.

Unfortunately, no such ersatz motif exists through whose reference we might identify authors that are also, as it were, full of shit --of this I am sorry to inform the OP, although I, in what is meant as some small consolation, submit the conjecture that, owing to his choice in accompanying image, the OP himself is, very likely, of a constitution akin to that of human waste.
