"Man, I see in Fight Club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War.No Great Depression"

So.. project mayhem is coming to a head. And Tyler Durden's mission of destruction, both of the self and of the consumerist world order is moments away from being complete. CP has written something more than just a clever book with edgy and well turned out prose. This might well be s frontrunner to be the '1984' of our generation. There i said it.

Life is a rollercoaster and not a Ronan keating kind of way either. Tyler and X are catapulting towards an imaginary state of 'rock bottom'. because it is only after you hit rock bottom that you can come up again, apparently. Loving Pahlahniuk's writing

One way or the other it all boils down to soap. X and Tyler have progressed in their rebellion. And are just completing a phase of 'guerilla waitering'. Take my advice and just order the onion soup that has the layer of cheese on top. It cannot be messed with

**SPOILER**Knowing that Tyler is figment of X's imagination already gives me all sorts of insights into what Pahlahniuk is doing. Tyler is X's 'little act of rebellion in the darkness' a result of a long simmering dissatisfaction with the consumerist/capitalist/materialist world order. Tyler has been fermenting like so much water pressure building up in your pipes, and now burst forth like an exploding shower head

The first rule of Fight Club is that no one talks about fight club, but here i'm gonna have to flout that. First time trying out the medium of Audiobooks and i figured why not start with a story i already knew?
