Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })FAQ #28 Could one describe The Subject Steve? The book was written in the year 2002, and was the second book written by its author. The author's name was Sam Lipsyte. It probably still is. The name of the protagonist may be Steve. The book is best described as experimental, cynical and somewhat nihilist, assuming that the book is best described. Reading the book may leave you with mixed feelings of satisfaction and disillusionment. It may also leave you dissatisfied, indifferent, in fine fettle or fuckeroo'd. And I sure as hell am not going to lay a moral trip on you. Oh, i know, morality is so important these days. Our society, it's fracturing and fissuring and fragmenting and all the other f-words, too, all because of a lack of moral structure. Well, not on this mountain, people. You want slave morality, that's the next mountain over. This is Mount Redemption. This is my fucking mountain. Got it? Good. So, let's get back to our regularly scheduled parable.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

IKEA Erotica: And IKEA Gorn. And IKEA social interaction. And IKEA human life. All deliberate, of course.

Sophisticated as Hell: Abundant. "One could argue that fuckedness is a vague concept, indefinable, and thus a meaningless point of departure for any sort of cogent analysis." is one example.

Cluster F-Bomb: Subverted. There is a lot of swearing going on, but it's just as apathetic as everything else.
