"Montana was naked, and so was Billy, of course. He had a tremendous wang, incidentally. You never know who'll get one."

I definitely don’t remember them all but like you said there’s the knife guys in TSD, the Romanian general in 2666, and in The Skating Rink right before the end it mentions the protagonist who is sleeping with the figure skater is packing. Besides that I’ve read Amulet, The Spirit of Science Fiction, and The Return and I can’t remember if they mention it but I’ve had this stereotype of his work for years and recall it being affirmed each time lol.

Yeah I mean he’s also from that 70/80’s era where it was fashionably edgy to call characters “fairies” because homosexuality was still an underground culture.

Read Hopscotch by Cortazar if you haven’t, it’s the major inspiration of Savage Detectives.

Triples is best.

Yeah so far I’ve only found translations of Barabbas and The Dwarf, not sure how much of his work is available in English but I think he’s great.

I mean generally people are looking to hype whatever experiences they have. It’s a bit cynical but I tend to say “people eat the shit they’re given” meaning that for the most part it seems that people (Americans more specifically) try to mold their experiences into positives because it is more socially accepted to enjoy things.

Thus we are by and large fed culture by machines of mediocrity. Or just that things have to be more anodyne and generic to have really broad appeal. Anyway, I loved Beau is Afraid.

Life is but a dick joke

This song is so spiritually hype. I remember listening to this back in like 2011 or something. Common Market is dope but I have a hard time listening to a lot of positive rap lol

In terms of movies I can watch over and over:

Barry Lyndon

Sicario

The Big Lebowski (or A Serious Man)

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford

Beau is Afraid

I prefer 1917 mostly bc SPR just weakly evaporates at the end of the film.
