second reading. felt crazy to be six days into a new year and not have started a joe book yet

nice to see LK shares my disdain for conversational use of the word “albeit”

the professors out of nowhere chapter long existential nihilism rant is my favorite new fiction moment of 2019

cool that LK is into Happy Hardcore

can’t say i anticipated MTV’s The Real World to pop up in this novel

it’s cool that the bike gang leader uses WAV format for his air horn melody

taken aback by how much iphone talk there is here
