it's wild how if you live long enough you see the conventional wisdom swing around 180 degrees from "oh wow I'm so cool and cultured because I performatively love DFW" to "oh wow I'm so cool and cultured because I performatively hate DFW" which is why I don't recommend it (living) (DFW agrees)

I tried to read IJ and got 20 pages in and it was such horseshit that I dropped it

This is Water is good and I like that movie with Jesse Eisenberg and the How I Met Your Mother guy

DFW was a Narcissist and Sucked

IJ is unreadable. I had the same experience as you, more or less. Who the fuck wants to read 1,000 pages of whatever that is.

Major prole tell to try to appreciate DFW by starting at page 1 of IJ. Just read his short stories and watch his presentations/interviews. He's brilliant and inspired me to wear a white paisley bandana around 50% of the time.

As i noted in another thread:

I can’t get through Infinite Jest because it is a relic of a time when smoking marijuana was Not Prole and DFW spills a lot of ink giggling self-indulgently about how cool he is to be writing about Dude WEED lmao

I love his short stories and journalism. I haven't even attempted IJ because all the biggest readers I know reported only getting halfway through, so I know I don't stand a chance.

i read IJ about 15 years ago and liked it, but not sure how it would come off to someone trying to read it today.

my favorite short story is probably Good Old Neon
