Everyone who reads James Joyce is a fucking hack. Anyone who says "The Odyssey" should be amputated for insulting Homer by making the actual worthwhile Homeric epics a preface to the schlock horseshit that is Joyce.

I'll tell you what to read before reading Ulysses: everything. Absolutely any thing in existence is more worth reading than Joyce's vapid masturbation. Even the cheat sheet to it which he had to leak 15 times. WHOOOOOPS DID THAT JUST FALL OUT OF MY POCKET, THE CYPHER TO MY MASTERPIECE ;) EVERYONE INDULGE MY MASTURBATION, I'M IRISH ;) ;) FARTS
