This photo of him is so strange--what year was this? He went from looking like pic related gigachad to the beta-phish fan in OP.

the first 200 or so pages of IJ made me look up his other writings, because they were so good - I even ordered a copy of TPK
then it fucking dragged for 400 pages
and then the last 400 pages were some of the best stuff I've read ever
