I started wearing a bandana on my head, /lit/.
It started when I was doing yard work and getting sweaty.
But then I didn’t take it off.
I started reading and I read deeper and longer than ever before.
I channeled my inner DFW.
I am the infinite jest.
Have you taken the bandana-pill, /lit/?

Skim the wiki article to get some background on him, or read an article discussing the death of DFW. Try to establish a point of entry for yourself, most will want to tackle THE BIG ONE, but will end up throwing it aside; those folks tend to fall into the group spewing the: He's too verbose to even make a coherent argument, stick that thesaurus up your ass you faggotlover rhetoric. So to circumvent that life path, maybe start with one of his essays, may I recommend 'Red Son' for all your pent up coomer energy written avant la lettre.
