What is TDP?

  "The Depressed Person", I guess, the text linked to above. ;-)

    There are far too many acronyms to deal with, getting down into a comment thread and seeing one 3-4 levels deep didn't connect with me as one for the linked content.

      Sorry, I thought TDP had been lexically bound, at least implicitly :-)

      David Foster Wallace also had an annoying habit of sprinkling non-standard (or at least obscure) acronyms throughout his writing.

        Indeed, the Eschaton chapter in Infinite Jest had a large amount of them and I ended up having to read the book with this wiki to make sense of lots of these acronyms. http://infinitejest.wallacewiki.com/david-foster-wallace/index.php?title=Pages_321-342 http://infinitejest.wallacewiki.com/david-foster-wallace/ind...
