Would it be ill to wonder if the Yale Women Photographers are influenced by
Dr. Bloom? He is one fat sonofabitch. Enormous.

1) because he is a celebrity prof at yale

2) he is an ICON for some of lit crit (for example he heavily influenced c.
paglia) - getting shivers?

3)he throws the word genius around almost as much as little max-ie- albeit
sometimes to a better effect

Hey thanks crash, I dig it. Anyway, the question is about Yale Culture I
think, and whether the Yale Women Photographers remind anyone of Bloom's
whole take on stuff. Bloom is quite poor in his field, imao, but very
entertaining for a certain audience of Yalie dildofaces. He's "the kind of
man" that Yalies like. His work is not very good, but he entertains, he
pleases his patrons. He also pleases those who love to read crappy but fun
books by a Yale Professor, which pleases Yale, I think. Like say what they
call in certain passing-games "a tea party."

Also, Bloom uses a mix of Ivy Fetish and blubbering stodgy stubbornness to
poop on potentially legitimate topics before they get interesting. A
self-castigation something. Like that droning nasal Yalie voice, eastern
establishment, a combine of "my yes it's so exciting" plus "but oh lord it's
so transparent
