There was an interesting article about his sister recently. I encourage anons to read it.
>>
He would actually love it, but would pretend otherwise, because that's how performative men are.
>>
>>25279013
he’s literally me
>>
>>25279007
i think your assumptions are incorrect
he would like 4chan
and as long as youre being honest, why would he care if you thought that?
>>
>>25279007
>best book
For performative males**
>>
>>25279022
there is no way he would like 4chan, or maybe he would love it too much in a way that he would hate himself for loving it. Based on that interview with the german lady he would probably have a heart attack if he downloaded tiktok on his phone. This is all based on his issue with TV channel surfing
>>

I feel like this is a really outdated premise about Infinite Jest, which really is a prescient novel that predicted basically everything going on now. Performative men aren’t reading 1000 page novels or even pretending to read them anymore. It’s just an unoriginal insult from women stuck in the past ironically.

He would download TikTok, and while he’d think he was suffering from an arrhythmia, it would actually be case of priapism caused by watching little girls dance
>>
>>25279031
You're right that he would probably get addicted and hate himself for it, but he would absolutely respect the utter lack of BS. He spent his whole life surrounded by academics and literary elites who masked their true intentions. Here, the mask is completely off. He might be repulsed by the extreme ends of the site, but the pure, unvarnished honesty of anonymous posting would appeal to the core of his philosophy.
>>
>>25279042
he was also alive for a few years when the site was around, and probably knew about it
>>
>>25279042
I don't think he'd get hooked on 4chan (absolutely tiktok though) but he would be fascinated with it. brief interviews with hideous men, etc
>>
Why are people talking about DFW like he died before 4chan existed? He committed suicide about a week before the Oprah shitstorm and Bill O'Reilly's Fox News report but the site was already somewhat famous from Project Chanology earlier that year and had been around for half a decade
>>
>>25279106
because 4chan was different back then
>>
>>25279007
im pretty sure he posted on /b/
>>
A pompous dullard, misusing his thesaurus in lieu of a point.
Americans really will just venerate anyone who borders on articulate, won't they?

>Le killed himself because the TV remote was invented
>He le.... WROTE THE BESTEST BOOK EVER ACKCHUALLY!!!
There is literally zero distinction between the current iteration of this fucking shithole and reddit. They've essentially converged and become the same website.

Consider killing yourselves.

DFW? More like, Dead Faggot Whiner
>>
>>25279031
4chan existed during his lifetime, he didn't go on it because he was a turbo normoid who watched tv.

Only if he were a total newfag oblivious to all the astroturfing

Performative and raped post.
