no fair. you promised All Proust. Fucking liar.
Not to get too pedantic, but this post was all Proust. Specifically, it was an argument that Proust's notion of involuntary memory is faulty, if not wholly unsupportable, when adapted to a contemporary (ie modern) setting where, in addition to having to deal with the horrors of war, the loss of loved ones, and delicious baked goods, we also have to deal with our subjugation to technology, a development which finds involuntary memory useless because I never know if 30 Rock is going to be on or not.
I guess many people haven't read Proust, so I didn't expect to have to write an explanation. Thanks for bringing it up. I hope this response helps.
