from a perspective of somone not obsessed with wallace


I tried to get the audiobook for infinite jest and i'm too lazy, enjoy my youtube videos too much and tv shows, plus it's an insanely large book, the first part of 8 parts of the audiobook is 8 hours.

seems like for me to be happy I got to be in the know of tv shows that I like and everyone likes or whatever or stuff I watched when I was younger, i do not own a tv right now but i'm always streaming something, I like my computer a little too much, porn a little too much

but the guy, Jason Siegel and yes the annoyingly Jessie Eisenberg pulls it off with the acting.

I am just getting into the youtube videos on what infinite jest was about and other interviews, I thought the booknote about the depends undergarment was about fearing about getting old and pooping your pants, so the writing off the bat confused the hell out of me

the movie was good, i made it all the way through the movie but then the end when the Rollingstone writer was describing his room I shut it off, because I have had obsession before and i'm too old to really care about details like that. I am just getting to know him, so it seemed kinda nerdy the ending.

Great review.

Just thought at the time that the books story was speaking to me with my porn problems in a funny fucked up way. But the movie was entertaining plus he wrote more than one book and this was so long ago I cant remember much about the movie.
At the time I thought russell brand was hip also but turned against him because he speaks too fast and started sounding more republican.
But im a dumb schizophrenic and learning disabled type of person. I have behavioral issues. I just went through a homeless ordeal and im not very happy right now. But i have a place to live but its in the bad part of town.
