- Thread starter tripleV
- Start date
You thought you had it figured out. You bought furnture. You told yourself, "This is the last sofa I'll ever need. No matter what else happens, I've got the sofa issue handled." Then the right set of dishes, the right dinette. Your window treatment, your duvet, your dust ruffle.
I say a chair is not an insight into a better understanding of its owner, a chair is a place to put your ass. I say, let me never be "complete." I say, "evolve" and let the chips fall where they may.
You are not a unique and individual snowflake. We are all part of the same compost heap. We are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.
This isn't a seminar. This isn't a weekend retreat. Where you are now, you can't even imagine what the bottom will be like. If you don't fall all the way, you can't be saved. Only after disaster can we be ressurected. It's only after you've lost everything, that you're free to do anything.

Triple V, have you ever read any of Chuck Palahuniuk's books? Fight Club may not even be his best - Survivor and Choke are also good. Worth a read.

Hey, another Fight Club thread
On a recent one, I said it was the most homo movie since Tony Curtis gave Kirk Douglas a bath in Spartacus.
Precisely for scenes like the guy spraying the Priest with the hose. (What image was that supposed to evoke? The spraying, the hose, the white liquid.... the PRIEST, for god's sake???)
This is the author of the book (Chuck Palahniuk) talking about how the director of the movie (David Fincher) made it so blatant:
"But Palahniuk says that director Fincher intentionally emphasized scenes like the one where Pitt's Tyler puts a gun barrel down the narrator's mouth. "David played it up for effect. One time he laughed and said, 'THIS IS THE MOST HOMO MOVIE EVER!'"
Okay, that's the author and the director talking, not me.
(And Marla? Can you say "prop piece in the guys' relatioship"? Or "BEARD"? Like when 2 boy vampires supped on a girl in one of the Anne Rice novels. It wall all about the two of them.)
I'm copying and pasting myself from the last "Fight Show" thread, btw. Couldn't resist.

Thanks, Sponge. But really I expect aaaallll manner of deflecting attention here. Not addressing the topic by saying: "hey... um, uh, yeah, so, that buksoon, virgin, huh? Bitch, too. Yeah man..."
Hey Omega, how 'bout I embrace the phallus when you spell it? (Aw shit, that means never. Forget that!)

OMEGA said:Buksoon, i do not know you,
but do not be afraid of sex......we all need it,
embrace the fallice, and yea shall be pleased and less uptight
taking it in the butt, that would help too.
goodluck
buksoon's not afraid of sex, she just wants love to go along with, maybe it's love she's afraid of.

Dr. Buksoon....this is in no way a flame you get enough of that as it is. However I think Fight Club was one of the greatest movies in recent history. I also have read the book as well as the Vampire Chronicles...and enjoyed Interview when it was adapted to the big screen. However , though not homophobic, the thought of two men together does nothing for me other than allow me a second chance to see what I had for lunch. Am I an anomoly??
TylerDurden said:
Actually, I believe that does make you a homophobe.

Hey, "Tyler", I like the movie too! (Not as much as you, evidently.) And I definitely realize that homo-eroticism was not the main point of the story!! It was just an aspect.
But what an aspect!!! Book's author, the movie's director, the stars, every educated person who's seen it who has said: "That was gayer than a gladiator movie!!"
And I just thought: "hmm, all these guys on the board, with their homophobic posts (and my suspicion that half are in the closet)... interesting...."

OK if I were a homophobe then the thought of being in the company of an openly gay man or women would scare the hell out of me. However quite the contrary....I find the open mindedness of the gay community somewhat refreshing. A friend is a friend no matter what their sexual orientation. My point was I enjoyed both these movies that have been labeled Homo Erotic. But the thought of a homosexual experience is something that I would never consider. Not because I am uptight...but because it just doesnt do anything for me.
TylerDurden said:
In your earlier post, you went so far as to say, not in these exact words, that thinking about homosexuals having sex would make you vomit. IMHO, that screams "Homophobe". But the best part of that post was how you preceded that statement with "though not homophobic"... LOL. If think you have to say "I'm not homophobic, but...." before you make your comment, that usually means you are about to make a homophobic comment.

Homophobic: fear of homosexuals...that definitely does not describe me at all.
The thought of two men having sex is just not at all appealing. I dont have to be afraid of something to not like it.
