"This is so stupid it practically drools."
David Foster Wallace "Tense present Democracy, English, and the Wars over Usage" pg 47
This quote is powerful through the imagery it portrays in the quote. You can actually see a drooling person. Another way it is powerful is through its tone that can be interpreted in
many ways. One sense of tone could be a funny lighter sense of comical tone. The other way is almost the opposite because it could seem frustrated and angry about how stupid something is.

This is so gruesome it practically bleeds.
