DID JEROME DAVID SALINGER LIKE OLIVES VERY MUCH?

IS THERE A VERITABLE RECORD THAT CONFIRMS THAT HE LIKED OLIVES VERY MUCH?

HE DID NOT "REVOLUTIONIZE" ANYTHING, HE MERELY WROTE ESSAYS ABOUT CONTENT ALREADY EXISTING IN THE MANY FIELDS OF SCIENCE ABOUT WHICH HE WROTE.

HIS FICTION IS UTTER "GARBAGE".

IS THAT THE SHORT STORY BY BRUCE BETHKE?

THE FACT THAT YOU BELIEVE THAT SOMETHING LIKE "LITERATURE" CAN BE "OBJECTIVELY 'GOOD'", AND THAT I THINK THAT SOMETHING LIKE "LITERATURE" CANNOT BE "OBJECTIVELY 'GOOD'", IS EVIDENCE THAT "EVERYTHING" IS "RELATIVE".

>>2357787

YEP, BECAUSE "EVERYTHING" IS "OBJECTIVE", IS THAT ACCURATE?

I ASSUME THAT YOU ALSO LIKE "FANTASY", AND "SCIENCE FICTION".

"ULYSSES".

"ATLAS SHRUGGED".

"INFINITE JEST".

"GRAVITY'S RAINBOW".

I DISLIKED "GRAVITY'S RAINBOW". I DID NOT EVEN FINISH IT.

"AGAINST 'FANTASY'"?

NO.

I JUST DISLIKE "LITERARY 'GARBAGE'".

THE ONLY "FANTASY" THAT I LIKE IS THE "'GORMENGHAST' TRILOGY", BECAUSE IT IS VERY WELL WRITTEN AND THE IMAGERY, AND THE THEMES ARE WELL DEPICTED & "CREATIVE".

TALENT CANNOT BE ACQUIRED.

HE WAS PARTIALLY ACCURATE, BUT MOST OF HIS CONCEPTS, AND THEORIES ARE NOW "OBSOLETE".

THE CONCEPTS, AND THEORIES THAT ARE STILL CURRENT HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED FURTHER BY OTHERS.

EVEN IN HIS OWN ERA, SIGMUND FREUD WAS NOT VERY ACCURATE.

HIS THEORIES AND CONCEPTS GOT IMPLEMENTED AND PROMOTED BY THE ZIONISTS.

WILHELM REICH, AND CARL GUSTAV JUNG WERE/ARE MORE ACCURATE THAT SIGMUND FREUD.

>Am I making sense to anybody?

NOT REALLY, BUT I CAN COMPREHEND WHAT YOU TRIED TO EXPRESS.

KEEP PROVING MY POINT.

I WOULD NEED TO KNOW WHAT DO YOU EXACTLY MEAN BY "NATURE OF A MAN".

YOU DO NOT SEEM TO KNOW EITHER.

>>2349142

YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY IGNORANT, AND/OR "STUPID".
