Kurt Vonnegut Dead at 84

Post by Beowulf »

All my heroes are dead or dying. First Hunter Thompson, now Vonnegut.

Easily one of the greatest American literary figures of all time, his writing and outlook on life really influenced me personally and my writing as well.

RIP Kurt, everyting was wonderul and nothing hurt.

Tiger, go look him up, and check out one of his works. It'll be worth it.

Failure of the education system?
