What? He has fur, why does he need to shave? I....I...buck it, I'm here for the RariMac so I can deal:facehoof:

Bloody Vomit Bukkake? That's an even weirder song title than chainsaw guts fuck.

What? But they have FUR:raritydespair::raritycry: I laughed so HARD when Rarity died....Gods this is confusing, why would she need to cover her tail? Buck it, I'll give it a like because of Rarity death:pinkiehappy:

This touches me in places that weren't meant to be touched.

This.....this.....is proper troll fic...I think. Is this a proper troll fic? HELP ME!

Odd, but quite Equesruta.

I'd say it was Lynchian, and you'd be offended.

I'd say it was Buddhist, and I'd be offended.

I'd say nothing, and end up a liar anyway.

In lieu of Euclidian geometries, I provide the simple, absolute, unyielding

and then fart in your direction, and never speak of it again.

It all makes sense now.

Everything I thought I knew was a lie.

This has given me so many ideas, most of them irrational, the few that aren't are illogical, all equally pointless.

Have a cookie.

I had something to say, but my dog ate it.

Then fucked it. Then buried it unceremoniously beneath the dying petunias. Then fucked the petunias.

It's funny, seeing as I don't own a dog.

LEVITY.

a song after my own penis right there at the end

I wonder is this an example of normality is death?

I enjoyed this quite a bit, that ah did. I lack the education to say anything more meaningful about it than that though.

I see your statement and raise you one Rainbow Dash Impales Herself on a Wrought Iron Fence.

Fine, that's an album name, not a song. In that case just take song 20 in that album.

*WARNING: DO NOT ACTUALLY LISTEN TO ANYTHING IN THAT ALBUM.*
I can now safely assure you everything in that album is the utmost in terrible composition.

The first part of this story, up until Twilight was introduced, had me laughing. Physical laughter is for me extremely rare. Your humor is inimitable.

Did you write this to the Adorno quote, or choose it later?

The fact that Adorno is widely quoted by post-modernists is not evidence of intelligence.

Did you write this comment to the story, or choose it later?

Bitching about postmodernism (not supposed to be hyphenated) is not evidence of intelligence. In fact bitching about postmodernism on a (deliberately and consciously, seeking the benefits of being so) rhizomatic network--on a node of said network that can be, by definition, nothing but bricolage, on a particularly bricolage-styled story by a particularly bricolage utilizing author--and to do so under the ward of pseudonymity is evidence of either intelligence's opposite or honesty's opposite.*(**)
This is triply true when you think postmodernism has anything to do with Le Ebin I Hate Jazz Man and when one of your blog posts was literally this:

*Bonus points for having been a programmer, so there is linguistic deconstruction added to your sins.**
**Bonus bonus points for refusing to acknowledge all of this, making you the worst caricature of a postmodernist, ie the one who just uses buzzwords (like postmodernism) without understanding them and just makes up the meanings of words as you go along.

I will decline your offer of a dick-measuring contest, but I am interested, as a writer, in whether you wrote this to fit the Adorno quote, or chose the quote later.

I'm sorry I editorialized offensively in my previous comment. I have a low opinion of Adorno, and find it sad that you may be making yourself miserable by taking him seriously. I realize Adorno was not himself a post-modernist, but that is mostly who cites him nowadays, unless you want to split hairs over who is more "Marxist" than "postmodernist". I have no tumblr blog, and rarely listen to podcasts.

The quote happened in the middle of the writing, as everything else did. There is neither beginning nor end to my writing process.

Your editorial was longer than your comment, and it was on a topic that you rant rather ignorantly about whenever you get the chance. I was not offended, I was responding to the actual content, to which the question was irrelevant.
I do not believe that anyone who has ever placed Bloody Vomit Bukakke and Adorno together did so because they were taking Adorno seriously, let alone seriously enough to be made miserable.
And one of the big bugaboos of many postmodernists is the abandonment of "grand narratives" and "reductive binaries," such as dialectical materialism and class struggle. Saying Marxism and postmodernism are matters of shading is ridiculous. As for basing your connection on citations, if everyone who cited Ezra Pound was a fascist, or Ezra Pound was politically aligned with everyone who quoted, imitated, or responded to him, things would get very simple very quickly, because everything is fascism and fascism is everything. Also Marxism is a constitutional monarchist capitalism, since Marx was a Hegelian and drew substantially from Adam Smith.

Saying Marxism and postmodernism are matters of shading is ridiculous.

Sure. I didn't say that. They are belief systems which today typically go together in American academia, despite their contradictions, so when asking who cites Adorno the most often today, one could answer either "Marxists" or "post-modernists", because they're often the same people. ("Marxists" probably would have been a better answer, tho.)

... although now that I've written that, I realize I have a hard time thinking of leading thinkers who make heavy use of both belief systems.

As for basing your connection on citations

A valid approach when sample size is large. It shows who someone's current followers are. Who cites Marx the most? Marxists. Who cites St. Augustine the most? Christians.

A valid approach when sample size is large

...sample size...

You have performed a study? You will not mind providing me with the data set and explaining your methodology? Did you compare the number of "postmodernists" talking about Adorno to the number of Alt-right who cite Adorno and the Frankfurt school as the beginnings of postmodernism? How did you define postmodernist for the purposes of this study was it based upon self-description or some other criteria? Did your study differentiate between favorable, neutral/mixed and unfavorable citations? Were you measuring absolute citations or relative citations? Did you weight the data for contemporaneity?

I have not performed any studies, but from casual discussion, I am confident that Christians quote Moses more than St Augustine and more Presbyterians know about Martin Luther than John Calvin (although they probably couldn't quote either, unlike readers of godless psychoanalyst Norman Brown). And the only people who talk about Adorno these days are channers, bloggers and one college professor who taught a class about the Holocaust and Literature and Adorno is objectively relevant to that topic. Which is relevant because

... although now that I've written that, I realize I have a hard time thinking of leading thinkers who make heavy use of both belief systems.

you seem to be confusing "an author or idea was relevant, or could be regarded as relevant, to the subject material and was therefore cited or required reading" and "the writer or professor was an Xist who wanted to indoctrinate people into X."

I probably shouldn’t have read this before breakfast.
