I've asked for the following:
Galapogos-Kurt Vonnegut
Cat's Cradle-Kurt Vonnegut
House Of Leaves- Mark Z Danielewski

I'll see if I can pick up some others at a used bookstore or something.

Yeah shut up and go back to sucking mommy's breasts you colossally shitty excuse for a human, why don't you stop asking for bullshit for Christmas expecting everyone to do everything for you while you buy them bullshit penny store trinkets and maybe one or two decent gifts so people get off your back and while you're at it why don't you actually reflect on how superficial and shallow your family celebrations are, trading gifts as if that's an adequate substitute for tangible personal interactions, fuck you're a despicable piece of shit I bet the whole time at Christmas you're hoping everyone just keeps that happy family shtick going so there's no silence where everyone has to frantically find something to say to fill the vacuous void that is the emotional bonds within your family fucking spoiled shit families i bet you secretly wish you had an alcoholic dad so you all could have something to force you to come together and love each other and instead you're stuck with this dull separation brought through indifference.

I never ask for anything but my family always asks what I want out of tradition. Usually I just say I don't know and they stock me up with all my toiletries for the year. Five boxes of tampons under the tree for the win.

Maybe this year I'll just send around my wishlist though. Hm.

And it's always funny because they even wrap everything up too. Really Santa, you don't need to wrap up half a dozen bottles of shampoo. Though I am grateful, saves a lot of money. I never ask for money 'cause I know I'd just blow it all.

I'm always in dire need of socks by the end of the year. I'm very careful about laundry, I put my dirty clothes in the basket as soon as I take them off, I don't mix my clothes with other people's clothes, as soon as they're done I fold them all up and socks get folded together in a pair and put in a bin with the other socks. And I still end up with maybe four pairs at the end of the year. meh

Well in fight club Tyler Durden is this wannabe revolutionary who is trying to sway The Narrator away from material goods and wants him to be his own person instead of going with societies flow. That post sounded very Tyler-ish.

I would ask for books but I have so many books I have to read/finish reading that I already own. When I finally graduate, I'm going to read them with no problems whatsoever.

If I could ask for more books, I would just ask for any Hercule Poirot books that aren't Murder on the Orient Express.

I made an amazon wishlist for my friends to get me something from mainly because we're all sick of buying each other drink.

IT has Naked Lunch, Crying Lot of 49, Finnigans Wake, House of Leaves and Notes From the Underground.

>> No.1269914

I'm glad to see house of leaves getting the love it deserves...btw does anyone know where to find an ebook of the hundred year sword by mark z danielewski?
