Confused; Should I read this Ayn Rand book?

[Fire Walk With Me]

1. LOL, not necessary: The title gives the entire plot away! nt

10. That's right! Save yourself time.

Here's the CliffNotes:

Rand. Douche bag. Yes.

[zbdent]

2. do you really want to be a douchbag?

If so, then go ahead and read it ...

3. Go for it! Know thy enemy is my motto

Since my ex worked in book stores, I'd put that in the humor section.

[JuniperLea]

4. Only if you are NOT weak and feeble minded...

I've read all her works, but not being weak and feeble minded myself, I look upon them as pieces of fictional literature...

[libinnyandia]

5. I' m sure you can find better books to read. I don't think

reading it would nedessarily make you a douchebag. Who knows, it might prevent you from being one.

6. lol

7. LOL.. Both Cracked and Mad are on fire...

In the last 10 years I have seen some of the funniest political satire coming from Mad and Cracked. I actually re-subscribed to Mad for the first time since I was a kid...

This months Mad had a Rick Perry Execution Calendar. One execution for every day of the year.

8. Yes

If you are 14 years old.

9. Are you on a desert island with no other forms of entertainment and plenty of firewood?

If so, do what you have to.

22. Then you can use it for toilet paper.

11. Yes!

I'm dying to read your review on Amazon. Or here, preferably.

[Fire Walk With Me]

12. :D

Thankfully I've never had an attraction to Rand, although I'm sure I'd have words if I ever did read it..

[Kaleko]

13. I'm sure you'd dismantle any douchebag's newfound self-esteem

with the mother of all scorchers in a scathing review.

Too bad this book is as non-existent as the entirely self-made man Ayn Rand conjured up in her teenage fantasy fiction tomes.

[Fire Walk With Me]

17. Perhaps if she'd added a sparkly vampire it would have had a larger audience?

[eppur_se_muova]

14. Hmmm ... doesn't Amazon allow users to upload images? nt

15. Not so easy-

My wife works with some who like this tripe. She argues that I cannot know how bad it is unless I read it! Do I have to read it?? We have the book around, and when on the pot, I have looked at the fine prose. But to comment on something I have not read seems not quite right. Do I have to actually read this!!?

[Gamow]

16. Just comment on the behavior of those who follow it. nt

[rhett o rick]

21. I read most of her books and was a devout follower in high school.

When I got into the real world I had to laugh at her fantasy. Like the lord of the rings shit.

[Iggo]

18. YES!!!

[treestar]

19. That's the essence of her philosophy

Her so called philosophy is for douchebags so they can avoid guilt and justify their behavior.

20. Cracked.com is fucking awesome. Everyone should read them. nt

[HappyMe]

23. lol!

I made it through 10 pages of that crap when I was in high school. I mailed it to my cousin Steve, thinking he would like it. He mailed it back! lol!
