Anyone else want to take over this blog? I am unable to do it anymore, as you have probably noticed. :)
Flight 2039 ((inspired by Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk))
Not yet finished. Done by Squiggy @Just Another Hole in Tulsa,OK.
It’s so hard to forget pain, but it’s even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.
Chuck Palahniuk (via annhaslosthermind)
I may have already posted this one… (Was I asleep? Had I slept?)
Bret Easton Ellis had unresolved issues with his father, so he wrote American Psycho, and turned his father into a serial killer.
Vladimir Nabokov had synesthesia, so he gave it to his characters.
Chuck Palahniuk had trouble coping with the decision of whether or not a certain man should receive the death sentence, so he wrote Lullaby. When publishers rejected Invisible Monsters for disturbing content, he wrote Fight Club to disturb them even further.
Your life was ruined, so you sat and did nothing.
When you know just how weak you are, you wish this were fiction.

oh, and another thing?
i really hate it when people judge me when i say fight club is my favorite movie. i actually hate telling people that because they assume i’m like every other fuckwad who goes “OH YEAH DUDE IT WAS SO AMAZING THAT SHIT IS SO TRUE I’M TOTALLY GONNA START A FIGHT CLUB AND BRING DOWN THE GOVERNMENT FUCK YEAH.” no. absolutely not. that film reinforced ideas that i’d had for a very long time and made me realize that i am not alone in thinking this way. i have literally seen it at least 250 times. i’m not lying or even over-exaggerating, you can ask anyone who knew me when i first saw it exactly how many times i’ve sat through it. i’ve even watched it with the commentary tracks multiple times because i am a huge fucking nerd.
no. you don’t understand. i love chuck palahniuk’s work before haunted (except for rant, which fucking ruled) and my first tattoo is from my favorite book of his, diary. that man helped shape my adolescence in a way that i will never forget.
that film WAS amazing, and not in the way that every fucking bro on the face of the planet thinks it is, and i know it will always hold a special place in my heart.
plus that film reminded me that i fucking love the pixies so fuck all ya’ll.

If you had your own talk show, who would your first three guests be?
Oh shit.
Well…
1) Patrick Stump: he’s a musical genius, and seems like an overall funny guy. I bet I could talk to him for hours on end.
2) Anthony Green: He’s my idol and has changed my life in an unbelievable amount of ways. I would love to shake his hand.
3) Chuck Palahniuk: Best author in the world and someone I could learn so much from!! I would like to know how the events that happen in his novels are related to his reality.
We would watch your talk show.
*Also, another great username. :)
