I'll do the shop when I get home later today. So wait 8 or so hours. If the thread is dead by then, I'll make a new shitpost thread with the shopped image.

FUCK!!!!
I've been out of lit/ for a few weeks. I didn't know he was gone.
Who is gonna defend the canon, now?
Also, how was lit/ the day he passed away? Did he at least have a stick?
Did my brethren pay him his dues?

He got a sticky, don't worry fren. The thread was fun and respectful at first, then it turned into a debate about who qualifies as "white" and who doesn't.

>>14051749
Even (William) Gass didn’t get that. I'm not sure if you’re kidding or not because he wasn’t a /lit/ totem like Pynchon or Bloom, but he was fairly popular here. Mods didn’t sticky him when he passed away, which even though he wasn’t the biggest figure here, still drew the ire of many a /lit/-user.

Wasn't it just that one Gass-poster who constantly brought him up even when it wasn't relevant?

>> No.14051804

>>14051784
That's probably did happen, but every once in a while someone would make a thread about The Tunnel with some genuinely interesting discussion. But yeah, /lit/ has changed a lot in the last few years. Fiction writers in general are not talked about as frequently as they once were. I haven’t seen a Gaddis thread in over a year for instance.

this lame bit of dialogue is underscored with a genuinely depressing and helpless realization that we're going to fail.

Don't remind me. That was the mods' greatest display of ignominy to date. I was irrationally upset. Gass was America's foremost prose stylist and they couldn't even give him a sticky. No respect!
