>Duchovny continued: ``Bloom was always bemoaning something in his lilting, sad voice, asking about what something would be like, and we'd all be silent, afraid to be exposed. But Naomi Wolf would raise her hand and respond, `It would be a world without adjectives.' And he'd say, `Exactly, my dear.' And I was like, I'm in the wrong place. Not only did I not know the answer. I did not even understand the question. A world without adjectives? I just didn't get it.''

Reminder that it was Bloom's classes which turned him away from the study of literature and get into acting, and so bloom is responsible for the X-files.

>In 2004, Wolf reported an alleged incident of "sexual encroachment" by professor Harold Bloom she said she had experienced when she was a Yale undergraduate working on poetry with Bloom two decades earlier. Due to Wolf's feeling that the university had not taken her complaint seriously, she made her complaint public.[11]

Fucking hell that's like some Borgesian or O'Brien level nightmare. I don't need more counterfactuals to be haunted by, anon.
