>And Milo began to toss the chocolate covered cotton into Yossarian‘s cupped hands. He had estimated with the help of a Maltese farmer who had a similar bodily composition to Yossarian that exactly twenty pieces would fit into Yossarian‘s mitts before the twenty-first would cause them all to bounce out.

>”But I can‘t catch 21!“ Said Yossarian.
>“You can catch 20, why not 21?“
>“I can’t catch 20, there‘s not enough room.“
>”could you stack 21 up?”
>”Milo, I can’t stack anything or I’ll move my hand and then they’ll all fall out!”
>”Try stacking 21 Yossarian, do it for the war effort!”
>”I can catch 20 just fine, but I can’t stack 21!”
>”I think the next improvement is for you to catch 21, and then try to stack them.”
>“If I can’t stack 21, then how can I catch 21?”
>“I think i’ve just diagnosed you Yossarian, I can help you unlike Doc Daneeka. You see, your issue is that you can’t commit emotionally to anything, not even a million dollar business idea! How about a little shock therapy, or at least some therapy that will shock you. Let’s go at a faster pace, here’s two at a time, Yossarian! Here it comes! Catch 22!”

This hatred /lit/ is forming against Catch-22 is hopefully the last bit of encouragement I need to finally leave this site

Since when did lit hate catch 22? We have it on our starter list. I think it's great, though it does overuse adverbs in the latter half of the book
