Exactly.

The best part of Fight Club is how none of the people who aspire to be Tyler Durden realize it was satire.

In fairness, I’m not entirely sure the author knew he was writing satire.

Yeah, Palahniuk’s an odd duck. Thankfully Fincher understood what it was all about.

I didn’t know anything about the author, but looking him up - and the Cacophony Society, and SantaCon - it doesn’t seem like he’s so into macho bullshit.

eta: and maybe I need Fight Club explained to me if the message is “lol-nonconformists”.

I have a signed copy of Fight Club.

I think Guts gets to the core of Palahniuk. He’s basically an edgelord.

Is Guts satire?

Dammit ponied by zikzak - the worst kind of ponied.

Ugh. Did not really enjoy. But, it reminds me a bit of some of Ambrose Bierce’s stories though, which I like or at least did at the right age.

Exactly. It’s like all the bros moshing in Nirvana shows in the early nineties too stupid to realize the band hated everything they stood for and that half the songs were feminist critiques of male culture.

The grandson of fascist dictator Francisco Franco is salty that his inherited ill-gotten gains will no longer be at his disposal. This is like Mussolini’s grandkids whining about fucking anything. Hopefully, he’ll lose more than just the castle.

" “Today the circus is celebrated with its clowns,” the dictator’s grandson, also named Francisco Franco, said in a statement translated by Politico. He added: “We are not going to lend ourselves to this circus.”

The eviction at the Pazo de Meirás did not satisfy the Association for the Recovery of Historical Memory, however. The group, which dedicates itself to preserving the memory of Franco’s human rights abuses, said Wednesday that the return of the palace “cannot end without a judicial process against those who illegally occupied it and filled it with the fruit of a huge plunder of the state’s patrimony.”

There is disagreement about how many people fell victim to Franco’s repressive regime, though it is widely believed that more than 100,000 people were killed or disappeared during his absolute rule in Spain from the end of its bloody civil war in 1939 until his death in 1975."
