A renowned novelist in his youth, after getting smashed with his friends, would return home, open a famous novel, while sitting at his typewriter, and copy word for word the entire book. He did this to feel the epiphany that comes with writing something brilliant. And while Hunter S. Thompson may not be the greatest role model, he was an excellent thief.
Aside: Look Into Thompson's Funferal, it is as ridiculous as Tim's.
So I've decided to do as he has done (if only a bit shorter) and copy out word for word page 485 of Finnegans Wake.
'Sagart can self laud nilobstant to Lowman Catlick's patrician morning coat of arms with my High tripenniferry cresta and caudal mottams: Itch dean: which gaspey, Otto and Sauer, he renders: echo stay so! Addressing eat or not eat body Yours am. And, Mind praisegad, is the first praisonal Egoname yod heard boissboissy in Moy Bog's domesday. Hastan the vista! Or in alleman: Suck at!
