Something about being emotional because he felt a chord with DFW through his writing.

That was the first mistake because some parts of lit don't like DFW. But he cemented it by saying that final statement.

David Foster Wallace tends to use the same sort of phrases (I guess that's what you'd call them) in everything he writes which are entirely exclusive to himself. E.g. w/r/t, viz. (hes the only one who uses it in a non-scholarly application). He also wanted to fuck David Lynch, or more likely get dominated by him in a Lynchian manner (goddammit this chapter is ridiculous).
