Is anyone excited for this? Do you think it'll be the same as the first?
Has it been leaked or anything yet?

I just want to read it bros

I cut two people out of my life that recommended that I should watch the film. The worst thing I have ever seen.
I imagine the books are even more painful.

There's a completely unironic passage about the benefits of masturbation, and in another there's just a list of pop culture shit like movies for about a page or two. No idea how anyone can read that shit.

I would argue that masturbation is the human animal's most important adaptation. The very cornerstone of our technological civilization. Our hands evolved to grip tools, all right—including our own. You see, thinkers, inventors, and scientists are usually geeks, and geeks have a harder time getting laid than anyone. Without the built-in sexual release valve provided by masturbation, it's doubtful that early humans would have ever mastered the secrets of fire or discovered the wheel. And you can bet that Galileo, Newton, and Einstein never would have made their discoveries if they hadn't first been able to clear their heads by slapping the salami (or "knocking a few protons off the old hydrogen atom"). The same goes for Marie Curie. Before she discovered radium, you can be certain she first discovered the little man in the canoe.

RP1 had one interesting idea about the hunters trying to make their brains into replications of the creator's by watching and playing everything he did. Unfortunately nothing was done with that and it was drowned in Cline jerking himself off for being a kid in the 80s

No, that's the genuine unedited passage. It's probably not even the cringiest part of the book either.
