I've only read 'The Expelled and other Novellas' by Beckett, but I must admit I did enjoy them. I prefer him to Joyce, that said I never finished anything by Joyce so that could be why.

American Psycho is garbage. Read Rules of Attraction instead. Ellis' best work. Which isn't hard seeing as the rest of his stuff is the definition of mediocre.

Merchant Ships are great. Algernon get too much press. I still like the 4way split they did with 1994! Boys and Sex and Snowing (superior to Algernon).

I hope you kids also listen to stuff like Joshua fit for Battle, Saetia and the other well known ones from yonder too.

That book has references to the band I Hate Myself, so it's okay with me.

Really? The Unbearable Lightness of Being seems to be one of those books like L'Étranger and War and Peace that EVERYONE seems to be reading. I think you might have the meaning of hipster (even though it doesn't really have meaning anymore) all mixed up.

Wu Tang Clan get sent back to 17th century America. Some one mistakes Redman as a servant and all hell breaks loose.

>truly are the best modern music has to offer.
I think you sir do not know what you are talking about either.

The music world has moved on and now use this to refer to Radiohead. I'm not even joking here or making some cute /mu/ reference.

That said, Beatles and Velvet Underground are both good. VU however, had a better good to avarage record ratio than the Beatles. That's my opinion however, so don't jump on it.

I enjoyed the beach. The book was so much better than the film. Well, till the ending. When they all get crazy on weed and try to stab him to death, that shit was just asbsurd.
I loved the whole crazy with Daffy.

But as for your question, I really can't help you. Sorry.

I expect it to be cheesy, the comic was. In one arc the bad guy? Sleet had a mutliple sim rooms and in one he had the dirty pair clones as his minion slaves.

Discuss it with someone buddy. Also go out in the sun. It's shown to help raise serotonin which in turn can help relieve depression.

Or just throw back a few beers and forget your troubles. It worked for many great writers, including Hemingway.

Fuck you guys, I thought we were friends?

I can be a lonely neurotic too. My best friend moved to California last month and I can't afford to go out and spend the summer with him despite his invite. And before he left he fucked things up with me and the only girl I actually liked.

...fine.

He's clearly a member of the working class who feels college isn't worth it because he didn't make it out of the slums. I'm not a class traitor. I love my working class roots, but whiney proles annoy the fuck out of me. I got out it, it just involves more effort.
