3. Did anybody else think this reading was odd? (From Aaron).

Yes I do. Most of it was disjointed paragraphs from different theorists. If the point of this reading was to learn about intertexuality, I'm not sure if I did. The overarching main idea is hard to understand. Instead of explaining it, the author (S) just assume we get it. I would love to see more real world examples. At the very least, I wish it was present in a more straight-forward way. Although if the whole concept of intertextuality is vague to begin with, then this piece reflected it amazingly.
