This is a good thread

Even if he's a better cook than I, it won't change the fact that he's a massive fucking faggot.

Don Quixote is so funny to me because the guy literally wrote it as a critique of chivalric literature and the idiocy of chivalric behavior juxtaposed with real life (remember Spain at this time was even more pants on head retarded than it is now) - and now Don Quixote is sort of the ultimate romanticisation of that ideal, Man of Le Mancha doesn't depict Quixote as the sad senile and sometimes cruel old man he is in the book but lionizes him as a romantic who denies cruel reality to be 'better'.

These pressures were so strong even during the authors time that when he eventually wrote the 'second half' of the story you can see the tonal shift as the various misadventures Quixote gets into portray him as well meaning if insane and eventually provides for him a happy ending where he swears off chivalric story books for good after regaining his senses.

Imagine creating something with the soul purpose of satirizing a thing, only for it to become the ultimate modern lionizing of that thing. It's like if you wrote a book about how awful cocaine is and everyone could only talk about how fucking awesome your book made Cocaine sound and holy shit I wanna do cocaine.
