Catcher in the Rye

This long set of short answers regarding J.D. Salinger's Catcher in the Rye is one of the most flagrant examples of out-of-context quoting known to mankind. The author, doggedly intent on finding the most vulgar quotations in the book and taking them completely literally, obviously thinks himself quite a wit, but sometimes the humor runs away from him, as in the near-nonsensical response 7. Once again, the straight-faced grader commentary (the left-margin question marks, "this is TOO personal!", "Oliver! Please be formal.") adds much to the mix, especially the assertion that response 6 is capital-letters BETTER than the preceding answers.
