“I hope to hell that when I do die somebody has the sense to just dump me in the river or something. Anything except sticking me in a goddam cemetary. People coming and putting a bunch of flowers on your stomach on Sunday, and all that crap. Who wants flowers when you're dead? Nobody.”

 

R.I.P to Mr salinger.

I wasn't a big fan of Salinger, but I think this means every single author of highschool english lit is dead. That's really fucking depressing.

 

Catcher In The Rye pretty much changed the way (fiction) novels were written.

They say the same thing about Ray Bradbury, or if they don't at least they should.

Bunch Of Phonies Mourn J.D. Salinger

Salinger

 

CORNISH, NH—In this big dramatic production that didn't do anyone any good (and was pretty embarrassing, really, if you think about it), thousands upon thousands of phonies across the country mourned the death of author J.D. Salinger, who was 91 years old for crying out loud. "He had a real impact on the literary world and on millions of readers," said hot-shot English professor David Clarke, who is just like the rest of them, and even works at one of those crumby schools that rich people send their kids to so they don't have to look at them for four years. "There will never be another voice like his." Which is exactly the lousy kind of goddamn thing that people say, because really it could mean lots of things, or nothing at all even, and it's just a perfect example of why you should never tell anybody anything.

 

:D
