I haven't forgotten about the people I haven't memed yet, and who will be memed whether they like it or not. Early Dave Sim is hard and will take a while, is all; while Beckett's so easy that a good idea how to make him harder might take a while. "The Lost Ones (Club Remixxx)" is still hilarious to me, presumably me alone, but does not fit the person in question. And Fitzgerald I thought would be easy as pie, but I'm rereading Gatsby and finding that past a small number of period 'tells' the main feature of his style is that his metaphors are unspeakably, unobtrusively awesome. Excellence is very hard to imitate.
