I dunno, maybe I'm not a college student anymore.


Ahem, you posted about Baudrillard on page 1. You mean graduate student?



Hell, I went to college for computer science. I just read Simulacra and Simulation because they mentioned it in The Matrix.

Yes, hello, I'm a huge dork.

The Questionnaire: A Prayer for a Small town and a Friend by the obscure Czech writer, Ji%u0159í Gru%u0161a. It's darkly humorous, and is everyday life writ large -- in a way only Eastern European writers seem to be capable of. In the vain of Milan Kundera.

See, I read it 'cause I thought I was clever and it would make me smart and get me girls. At least you had a good reason.

Oh my, the author's name isn't Ji%u0159í Gru%u0161a, at all. Actually, it's Jiri Grusa.

It's a good book, although I'm having trouble deciding which of you two had the worse reason for reading it.

Wait, I admitted I've read Baudrillard, which is by default a bad reason. I demand a recount.

Christ, I will ALWAYS regret reading House of Leaves. What a disappointment.




If you replace House of Leaves with On the Road...you'll have MY sentiment exactly.



I regret reading On the Road a second time. But then I liked it the third. time. And I love Dharma Bums.



I regret reading On the road in general.
