Not really, just dorkiness and abnormal sweating. And it's a montage from a 80-90 minute interview, I'd say everyone would produce a fair amount of weird grimaces and outtakes over the time.

In the movie The End of the Tour the reporter asks him about the bandana, and DFW answers that it's like a safety blanket for him because sometimes he feels like his head is going to explode. Don't know if that is an answer based on fact or not though.

I read somewhere that he tended to sweat a lot, especially during public/speaking appearances. He wore the bandana to soak it off his forehead and generally keep it from being unsightly or annoying him.

>> No.15302576

>>15302534
He says this himself a couple of places, and also has written in excessive sweating as traits of characteristics of characters a couple of times, but it's dfw so it it were one of the other reasons people have suggested it wouldn't be all that surprising to me
