Kurt Vonnegut Lecture

YOU GUYS ARE ALL A BUNCH OF NERDS

Funny that I happened to watch this lecture exactly twenty years after it was recorded. Stay solid gold Kurt.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

the best thing to exist. Mr Vonnegut I live on because of your words

The bit about his son in law is only like three senetences, but it conveys so much sardonicism and sadness.

I wonder, is Kurt Vonnegut all of the things that John Updike could never be?

Can you remember. I can. Life was better.

The lengthy comments aboutThe College Scholars Program are of no intetest to viewers. Yawn. Get on with the speaker--which is why we clicked on this!

Amazing man, peace be upon him !
I just finished The Sirens of Titan and now this talk... i already love him so much, if this isn't nice i don't know what is !
I'm pretty sure i'll devour his other books in the next few days.

he's not that old, he has to stop posing as a crippled old man and get over himself.

Kurt is up in heaven now.

Wonderful

The only proof we need for the existence of God is music. WOW!

Vonnegut was a brilliant, compassionate, humorous, politically savvy, generous spirited creative genius.

I went through 4 years of ivy league college from 90-94. The number 1 thing i remember was hearing kurt vonnegut speak for an hour.

Love you, Kurt!

You can't help but love

Great! I hope he is in heaven now.

Only the great get booted out of school for not excelling....

bit disappointing in the end, long winded and not that clever but all laugh in the right places so I must be missing something. Do hope things worked out well with the tobacco company in Louisville though.

Bush, Dick and Colon. You have to be 82, 2 years from death and a famous writer to get away with saying that.

So I’m looking around for a story that I kept being reminded of, in these days… And I 😂 when I found Jordan Peterson reading it - well done Jordan. There’s only a handful of books I have carried in my life Welcome to the Monkey house was one… And this story opened my young mind to the simple truth of allowing someone to be better than me, and allowing the meaning of ‘Equality’ to have double meaning. ❤ I equally respect, and equally support freedom to be brave enough to take the chance of being better than others, and less than others in cases.

Kurt Vonnegut was a wild man! Listen up kiddies!!

I fucking love his books, what a great writer he was. He tells that his favorite joke was someone saying that he died and went to heaven, but I don't think he's allowed to enter there

Teachers: Mr Gertz, Miss Crowly, Mrs Kenniasty, Herbert L Fink, Larry Bernstein were key influences on my life.

king shit fr. happy birthday.

Happy 100th birthday Kurt Vonnegut!

kurt vonnegut needed a good long lecture about his fatuous stupidity.

❤

Yes witty, but not funny.

if he isn't real, wonderful and amazing I don't know who is.

Rip Kurt..a WW2 vet and POW of the finest sort

I see

well if this isn’t nice i don’t know what is

There was an old man who lived near you.
He saw so many fools he did not know what to do.
He gave them some stories without any BS.
Then whiped them all soundly and put them to rest.

waltzing his way to heaven , deep gratitude. If he wasn't nice , I don't know who is

Kurt Vonnegut is legendary, slaughterhouse 5 can be viewed as a predecessor to multi verses, but his other books? Player piano…? Kind of snoozers dude. But i guess if Kirk Fox can make it Hollywood, we all have a chance

Who are these revolting Academics?
What do they do all day?

Do these classic American liberals still exist? 😭😭

His signature is signature.

Are Kurt Vonnegut and David lynch the same person?

This is the best lecture I have ever seen. I hope to one day lecture like him.

Norm Macdonald must've been greatly influenced by him

Crucial storytelling.
