Embrace reality and you will live and learn, Grasshopper.

When I'm on the "Shytter" I read, "The Lost Science of Money" By Stephen Zarlenga..it's light reading - only 700 pages... http://www.monetary.org/lostscienceofmoney.html

No thanks. I'll stick to Iron Man and Spawn picture books. If I need a hanckering for solemnity I'll ask you to recite some Yeats.

Why beat yourself down with sh!t that'll ruin your day? If that's the reality you want have at it. I like sunshine in my day; Pvssy, sushi and Quentin Tarantino flicks.

"Reality" is not a "want" - it "Is' what "It is'"! - you are delusional and live in a fantasy world!

Truth is good and lies are bad - simple!

I really like black comedy books, look up Kurt Voneguith

Seconded. The spelling is Kurt Vonnegut, and he's awesome.

Labyrinths by Jorge Luis Borges is my favourite book, it's a collection of strange short stories about time, the infinite, minotaurs, etc.

People tend to enjoy The Diceman too. Read that.

'Into the Wild' by Jon Krakauer.

Absolutely stunning book. I'm a big reader, and this one is among the best I've ever picked up.

It has resemblances to Fight Club, in it's idealistic simplicity, and anti-society views.

I believe it's coming out as a movie in september, but as you know, books are better than the big screen.

Blasphemy!

Sorry bro, but that movie was a snoozer. The reviews were like, "This movie will change the course of your life." HOW?! I'm not dropping acid and don't plan on doing it anytime soon.

Seriously, wtf was all that bulls.hit?! Some dude meets this creepy old man in some 4th demension and he trains him to do some magical, Chriss Angel s.hit?! Don't tell me you believe you can do that stuff? Gimme a break! I'll tell you what the f.uck it was. It was a dude who had a career threatening accident, beat the odds and healed, because of it, he examined his life and realized he was taking it for granted, and Hollywood decided to throw some extra s.hit in there to make it different from the millions of other stories that are exactly the same.

Yeah but in my "fantasy" world I get laid.

I don't like Kurt Vonnegut, his stories arnt really engaging, and I know im just 16, but I do have a more mature mindset. I read Slaughter-House Five. Mabye his other books are better but I don't like his style of writing.

I don't know, I really enjoyed it, and I keep thinking about it. In fact I'm gonna buy it on DVD and watch it a 2nd time. It is based on a true story by the way. Dan Millman does exist and he has plenty of books, some that are really recommended.

Well it was a true story in the sense that an olympic hopeful broke his leg in a motorcycle accident, was told he'd never walk again, but went on to not only walk again, but compete as a gymnist. As for all that weird paranormal stuff...I'm sure that was all Hollywood. And without that Hollywood stuff, its just another story of perserverance. Don't get me wrong, its great that the dude beat the odds and went on to have a successful life, but that sort of thing happens all the time and quite frankly I'm getting kinda bored with these cliche stories. But to each his own.

You can actually read a lot of his stuff at his website. His book does have some stuff his website doesn't and his website has a lot of stuff his book doesn't. Check it out.

Oh man, just realized there were more stories than just what's listed on the front page, hah, thanks. How big is his book though, quiet interested in buying it.

 

[Charm&Style]

Its about 270 pgs. Like I said though, a lot of the stories in there can be read on his website, but his book does have a handful of stories his website doesn't. He's coming out with another book this fall too.

Sex Drugs and Coco Puffs by Chuck Klosterman. Where else will you read about the existentialism of "The Sims"?

The Zen of Oz is good as well as The Tao of Pooh.
