You may only post in this thread if you read the trilogy and earned your badge.
Lets talk about the works in the meanwhile.

Outed plebbie. Plechazunga Pig-man is a yellow and purple creature of German Expressionism
I have the badge and I'll prove it.
GR: Byron the Bulb
IJ: John Wayne and Avril
Ulysses: A.E.I.O.U.
But have you read the new trilogy?
A screaming comes across the porch, from the stairhead, Tommy bearing a bowl of lather on which a pinecone and a toy rocket lay crossed—he sits on the steps surrounded by heads and bodies of characters never to be created, Wallace having quit and thrown himself upon his belt, ha-ha o my, Tommy thinx, don't throw rocks at the thrown, ha-ha.

What does the badge look like?
>>7855699
It's not a literal badge. It's a uniform: bandana, eyepatch, and dammit stop doing that with your eyebrows, Scuffling.

I just finished The Lime Twig yesterday and my copy of The Recognitions is on its way. The Tunnel though? We'll see, gasspal, we'll see.

its all in the eyes of the reader
no one can get through all three without becoming a changed man
"...the three of us are standing in a flattened gravel pit encircled by stone walls of spectator seats.(1)"
1 Joyce is shirtless

If you like beautiful prose, oodles and oodles of content and symbolism, and being able to poke around in the mind of a monster, then you should get it.
>>7855803
They're not as memetic but The Recognitions and The Lime Twig could work as part of a similar "trilogy". The Tunnel I'm not sure about.
>>7856159
The Tunnel moreso than the others fits the meme trilogy.
>>7856563
This.
>>7855411
That's the dumbest fucking picture and it keeps making me laugh.
>>7855498

Gonna have to break this rule, the order is Inifinite jest -> Gravitys rainbow -> Ulysses, right?
Did anyone read them before coming to /lit/?
I heard of Joyce and read Ulysses but didn't know about the other two until coming here
>>7857543
order to read them in?
>>7857554
Yes.
>>7857549
I heard of and bought Ulysses and Gravity's Rainbow before coming to /lit/. I think I saw Infinite Jest lying around in Barnes and Noble's bestseller piles near the entrance, but I never considered buying it or even looked up anything about it until I saw the memes.
I never leave the house without my jacked with these patched on. I earned it
