Why this fat fuck relevant?

He can't write a plot that doesn't divulge into petty cynicism made out of half baked purple prose paragraphs whose excuse is modernity. Neither he is funny, rather more snarky through characters who resemble his own lazy and gluttonous mode of living, unsurprisingly always peering at people from above. Just imagine being alive for all these years, reading and writing as your profession, only to give out a handful of good pages. He's a hack and not even worth of the juvenile affection from impressionable and overreacting hipsters on here.

I don't think everything of his is amazing but I've read every piece of fiction prose he's written. For a quick Gassy handjob you should try the short stories: "Order of Insects" from In the Heart of the Heart of the Country which is 4 pages long and then "Emma Enters a Sentence of Elizabeth Bishop's" which is 40 something pages long but is so good it only felt like 20 to me.

I'm also waiting for that guy who asked for my feet pics to post his Gass rankings like they promised.

'Fat fuck' is the most beautiful sounding obscenity there is, prove me wrong.

Well, he probably knows the difference between "divulge" and "devolve."

is 'cuck' an obscenity? Because cuck sounds better every time I see/hear it.

I just read 'Order of Insects.' I don't think I'm at Gass' level but I appreciate that he seems to be good.

If you're female and over 18, I will give you my Gass ranking for feet pics. I have read all of his fiction and non-fiction.
