It's kind of sweet and humble the way he quietly apologizes every time he pauses to take a drink of water.

@ronaldmcdon Год назад

Listening to DFW read his own work always makes me tear up.

@sloaiza81 Год назад

"We've all seen this before." DFW was ruthlessly observant.

@MingusDynastyy Год назад

Amazing! I always love how he's able to tie together so many conflicting thoughts and emotions. His delivery and descriptiveness is spot on as well

@ronaldmcdon Год назад

Rest In Peace DFW voice of a generation.

I'm sorry to learn that David was not aware of Slipknot or wearing hats indoors!

@AntonSlavik 7 лет назад

So goddamn chilling. What I don't understand is why Wallace wrote that (I'm forgetting the precise wording) it's disrespectful to be horrified by seeing something when real people are actually experiencing it. It doesn't at all detract from the horror.

"It seems grotesque to talk about being traumatized by a piece of video when the people in the video were dying."

@JamisonMyth 5 лет назад

the reason that he's saying it seems grotesque to talk about being traumatized by a video where someone dies because the infliction on the viewer of the video is so infinitely smaller than the infliction on the person in the video that remarking on the infliction on the viewer is grotesquely self centered.

@Ohfukmoment 5 лет назад

One thing I've noticed about DFW is that he apologizes for how he feels often. I have no idea why. Some formatively instilled diffidence within him won't let him just feel.

I get the feeling he doesn’t know them. He looks uncomfortable. My guess is they took a pic with him and uploaded it.
