> hey, you all seem to be more worked up about this thing than I am, I just thought that sounds too crazy, it sounds like something from "Curb your Enthusiasm" not real life. No no, I am right there with you. It is straight out of Curb'd. > I'm pretty sensitive to implications of literary style and so forth, in my opinion at least, and I think the implication was "oooh everybody ganged up on me" Observe people doubling down in this thread about how the fingers snapping (which didn't even happen probably!) is totally normal because actually... :P Again, can hardly fault you as a reader, you certainly aren't part of that. Listen, someone posted in here that they themselves are a NYT reporter and not only did the finger snaps did not happen (but would be totally justified if they did!) this is just a former disgruntled employee who "probably got fired for watching porn". I just think that's... amazing. Hilarious and weird. And something to watch out for.
