What if instead of David Foster Wallace, it was Gayvid Fostard Wallace, and he was, like, a gay retard.

>Wallace gained media attention on July 22, 2006, after walking off stage at the Le Conversazioni literary festival in Capri, Italy, after twenty minutes into his planned fifty-minute panel discussion. Instead of addressing his 2004 collection of short stories, Oblivion, Wallace walked out and asked, "What the fuck is going on?" He then talked for six minutes about the "numbing" role entertainment plays in our lives and how "stupidity just fucking runs the world because entertainment is stupid." When the audience applauded him he asked them not to and responded by saying, "Maybe just take a moment to be really fucking profoundly sad."

Face the facts: IQ is almost directly correlated with economic outcome in life. If you're stocking shelves, studying English, or cooking pizzas while dreaming of being a great writer someday, here's a wake up call:

YOU

ARE

NOT

INTELLIGENT

You're just pretentious!

If a smart person had any sort of literary talent, he would be making money from it.

DFW's celebrity is vastly more interesting than his fiction 2bh

the incredible amount of media debris he generated--his interviews, biopics, essays (academic or otherwise), commencement speeches, syllabi and NYT articles on his life and work--is what people like to consume, not his writing, which is pedantic, deliberately boring and pretentious
