Was this supposed to be sad?
For whatever reason I found this to be incredibly depressing, though also hopeful. It seemed to me to be saying that human life is full of contradictions and insanity, and while we may think that makes us animate, it simply isn't true. There is no animate and there is no inanimate there is only the simple and the complex, the world is all and that is the case. The only thing we can really hope to do to make sense of it all is to just live in it , and love. There is no hope for sanity, as the very act of life is insane.

What's everyone's favorite chapter?
Personally Mondaugen's Story is among the best pieces of literature I've ever read. Right up there with The Dead.

It's been a while, but I remember being very fond of "In which Esther gets a nose job".

What's that? Related to #iamsorry or w/e it's called?

I think the joke is that shia labeouf's "performance art" is mostly just him claiming credit for things that he didn't make, fully aware that his audience is fully aware that he didn't make them
