a lot of girls you think don't like you probably actually do like you but just don't want to have sex with you. a lot of people can't tell the difference.


What if I become rich and famous?

find a man she is attracted to, contrive yourself to be in the presense of of both of them. Defeat him in which ever activity has the biggest cache in your immediate peer group (examples: 'how do you like them apples' in good will hunting or shooting up a club with machine guns in Scarface).

Be humble in your victory and respectful to the chastened challenger, wish him well, then turn back to your love interest and act sort of cold and distant, using your body languages and silence to insinuate your resigned frustration that yet again the whims of a woman have forced good proud men into needless conflict.

done

so this storm you've been describing... we're talking in metaphors here right? this is all very interesting... i'm going to pencil you in for four sessions a week. i'm sliding scale but my minimum is $100 an hour. you've got to show a level of financial commitment you see and i've got bills to pay.

i been rly diggin the thomas bernhard altho he's too recent to be a classic i guess. he's a cool depressed weirdo writer

" not only was it a terrible, a horrifying world, but it was also a ridiculous world, but unfortunately each one of us had to resign himself to existing in a world that was not only terrible and horrifying but also ridiculous, each and every one of us had to come to terms with this fact; how many hundreds of thousands, how many millions of people had already come to terms with it, even in his own unquestionably terrible, horrifying, and ridiculous country, our own country, the most ridiculous and most terrible of them all"

and if u like celine you'd prbly like knut hamsun as well, i just read Hunger and it was very similar in feel (altho i like celine better prob)

i don't keep track/write down what I read so I have to think for a bit. these are my favorite ones that aren't as popular: against the grain/against nature (huysmans, above poster also reading it), the clown (german, short), father & son, sanin, the master and margarita, the fuck up, self discovery (lavchenko),

#8479

but if you haven't read even one of them these are my favorite big name classics: Ulysses, Brothers Karamazov/Crime & Punishment, Lolita, Moby Dick, Brave New World, Dracula, The Sound & The Fury (or As I lay dying, but i haven't read it yet), The Portrait of a Lady, Kafka (The Castle, The Trial, or the short one about being a bug), Tropic of Cancer (and Capricorn), The Black Sheep, Madame Bovary, Gogol/Chekov for short stories, i dunno there are more but i forget.

Proust Remembrance of Things Past is #1 Bigtime Funbook, though and should keep you occupied for a whole season.

oh and Waiting For The Barbarians (goes on not-as-popular list above)
