Where'd your Tumblr name come from?
(yanked from ohserena)
OK, I’ll bite. I’m usually loath to reblog Q&A meme-like things, but this gives me an excuse to be a total book nerd. Y’all ready for this?
I get my name from the longer phrase der absoluten Zerrissenheit, or the complete act of being torn up. It’s from the delightfully brain-breaking book, House of Leaves. I’m, uh, a little obsessed with that book.
Oh, and in case any one wondered about my icon, it’s the cover to Sings Reign Rebuilder by the Godspeed You! Black Emperor semi-side-project, Set Fire To Flames.
