I really only start talking about it after somebody else brings it up, mostly because of the stigma around a white dude bringing up Infinite Jest. Which really sucks because it's a pretty interesting book with a lot of unique perspective on things that are happening today, like entertainment addiction.
I think it only seems that way because a lot of people who read it don't really bring it up much.
That's a very good point. I don't think I've ever brought it up in conversation except when someone in my family was reading it.
I guess it's like idiots and Nietzche. Gotta let everyone know you read it.
