alice wellintown the trolling pofessor

[Joseph Tracy]

Does anyone else accept alice wellintown's statements that he/she  
teaches college lit?

this person talks about referring to the text and accuses others of  
not doing so , but on a thread about Manson, who appears in the text,  
has nothing to say about Manson or Pynchon's use of Manson references.

this person does not use persuasion but half formed discordant  
references, snarky  comments and bullshit generalities punctuated  
with crudities that are neither funny nor enlightening.

doesn't know the difference between "underminded" and undermined, or  
between grammar and diction.

shows no perception of other commenter's understanding of Pynchon and  
his writing, and no willingness to listen or engage in reasoned  
discourse.

is not without some sense of a certain interpretive framework that  
has been well developed by various critics, but seems personally  
unable to fill that interpretation out with anything like a nuanced  
critique

to me this adds up to troll and probably fundamentally dishonest  
about the professorship.

Anyway  sorry for taking up so much list time with this but I think  
it might be a worthwhile experiment to stop feeding the troll
