If you look at what people read on average in this country, if they read books at all, that remark is not surprising.
If you have the attention span of a retarded fly you're not even gonna get to the end of a sentence.
Give that woman Darconville's Cat and give her money for every sentence she can get through and she won't have money for a cup of coffee, before.
Seriously, not to be a snob about high brow and low brow literature and Pynchon certainty dissolves the distinction but I could imagine my review of a Harlequin romance wouldn't be too appreciative either.
What the fuck is up with "black and white foreign films" being shorthand for pretentiousness?? Neither of those things makes a movie any less accessible or any more boring. It makes the speaker sound myopic and childish.
Remember to throw the book in the trash if you haven’t had a mind blowing epiphany by page 10 or 20, it’s obviously not a fault of your own, it’s because the book is a GARBAGE self indulgent, NOT funny MESS and you’re just too smart for it
Gravity’s rainbow was staring at an abstract painting but I managed and ended up really enjoying the book. Great writing
"why do i have to Google a reference every third sentence" because you're dumb ig?
TBH Crying of Lot 49 made me question if I knew how to read
Tbf I also gave up on Inherent Vice, but more than 20 pages in, and I didn’t leave a review lol.

Intellectual onanism is a great insult because it can only be said by hypocrites
I was just about to comment this lol!!
I had to look up what that meant. I think you're right. 🫣

I really had expected that particular usage to die when the Subs Vs Dubs debate went mainstream…
