This. Kerouac used to play a lot of sports. He was so good at football it got him into Columbia. And in his travelling days he walked a LOT, not to mention some mountain climbing (Matterhorn Peak).

That's fascinating, I had no idea that he'd gotten into university on a football scholarship.

Probably Kerouac. DFW was an emofag when he offed himself. I'm sure he was becoming a fat sadsack at that point.

Yep, he did. He was kind of clueless about literature until he broke his arm and had to stop playing football. Then, he spent his time with Burroughs and others and reading.

yeah i think since we're not in the dark ages anymore that if you have an exaggerated muscular build (i.e. weight lifting or something not sporty) then there's something wrong with you mentally.

even on /lit/ the muscley guy is d&e & we know he is pretty fucked up just we dont know why or what yet.
