Ayn Rand is such a good author.

I'll just leave this here.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jun 7 20:12:13 2011 No.1836117 She wrote novels? I thought all of her work was self-masturbation of a stupid philosophy? I must've been incorrect.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jun 7 20:15:13 2011 No.1836121 yes you must have been

>>	Anonymous Tue Jun 7 20:18:13 2011 No.1836126 > self-masturbation of a stupid philosophy wtf does that even mean? Isn't all masturbation self-masturbation? And how can stupid philosophy masturbate?

>>	Anonymous Tue Jun 7 20:19:13 2011 No.1836130 I thought Anthem sucked ass. Never read anything else by her.

>>	Anonymous Tue Jun 7 20:28:13 2011 No.1836147 >>1836126 I was saying she basically wrote bad novels that told the implementation of her philosophy, Objectivism, into a falsetto society. So I guess I should have said that way.

>>	Anonymous Wed Jun 8 01:05:13 2011 No.1836667 Anthem was okay but it was a little too heavy handed with philosophy. Personally, I liked The Fountainhead quite a lot.

>>	Anonymous Wed Jun 8 01:31:13 2011 No.1836715 You know what's weird. I have the book "Anthem" in my room and I have no idea where it came from. I saw Ayn Rand on the cover and from what I've heard about her I don't think I should read it.

>>	Anonymous Wed Jun 8 01:42:13 2011 No.1836746 >>1836725 clearly anyone who reads Rand doesn't.
