Yeah I Know, I Know 
a stunning example of wit that makes us all think better of you. Or just pathetic pettiness that makes you look like a wanker, I forget which. 
Most. Boring. Flame. Ever. 
What happened to the guys who had a real talent for this sort of thing?

Wraith, your presense is needed. 
Sexual Tension 
the two of you should just go ahead and fuck and get it over with. Sheesh. 
Hmmm 
I'm not into necrophilia

But if your into masochism, I suggest you go fuck yourself 
Nevermind, 
Sarah Silverman is on Comedy Central! I want need the two of you for jag off purposes afterall. 
Hrumph 
I'm not into necrophilia

If they don't meet your standards, lower your fucking standards. Don't be so uppity. 
Well 
I'm off to play a new DooM3 Sp offering, play with a couple of zombies, hmmm, seems like I've been doing that for the last couple of hours, oh well, on to the real thing 
Is The Board Broken? 
Why do i keep reading the same 5 "new" posts every time i visit this thread? Oh, becuase nobody has anything new to say.

Go map! 
Yes, Your Right MetIslime 
I concede to Grindspire, there will be no more on the matter. Sorry, I hope the next 5 'new' posts you read do indeed have something new and worthy to read. 
Hmm 
It'd be nice, but I doubt it.

If not this, more bees (or whatever else) 
Just To Be Different 
Not really knowing what Facism was until recently, I've drawn conclusions that Fight Club, although psychologically interesting and quite entertaining, is just a huge advertisement for it. Or at least it seems to promote Facism. Everything about it seems to make sense : the lack of value placed on material possessions, the need to create a 'warrior' society, and even as the club mutates into Project Mayhem, those who join "sacrifice themselves for the greater good." They lose their individuality and sacrifice themselves in an attempt to "free" the Capitalist and Democratically trapped peoples.

There was something else about rejecting God, but I'm not sure if that's part of Facism or not, I really don't remember. Anyway, just some food for thought, and if you guys realized this before, sorry for wasting your time. 
Hmm 
Oh, and concede to me? I haven't posted anything for 2 1/2 because I got bored with semantics 
5555 
5555 
Hmm 
Zwiffle, it can equally be seen as an advert for the far left & anarchism, in that it is a rejection of capitalist values and a rejection of the society impossed restrictions that plague modern society. Especially if you've read the book (which, as is generally the case, is a lot better).

However, the go far enough to the left or right and the two gradually become indistinguishable.

(go go benign dictatorism) 
Ffs Nonentity

Hmm 
To expand (only slightly) further; without identity or possesions, we all become equal and each individual is equal valued (even if that value is next to nothing).

And atheism was very much part of communism 
Hmm 
I'm waiting for dawn, I haven't seen it in a couple of weeks and it should be quite soon. 
Hmm 
(Also, can't sleep, internal anguish will eat me) 
And Don't Worry About The Whole Defeat Thing. 
there are no victors in stupid arguments, that's why I quit caring about 2 posts in explaining my postion and went to play video games. 
 
What exactly do you mean we become equal without identity or possessions? In what sense, is what I'm getting at. 
Hmm 
Defeat nothing, as I say I gave up nearly 3 hours ago through boredom (that and got distracted by pope in #tf, as you saw :).

The internal anguish is due to some entirely seperate (and fairly nasty) rl shit atm 
Hmm 
Well, the ideal of the far left is that every single person is treated as equal, has equal possessions and plays an equal part in society.

If everyone is worth nothing, has nothing and is merely a 'slave' to the overall goals then they are equal.

No-one said equality meant everyone having lots of things and being highly valued 
Zwiffle: 
You're reading a lot into the movie that is there in some form, but one thing i think you missed is that the movie isn't actually promoting Tyler Durden's pholosophy. It introduces it as seductive and promising, explores the imagined consequences, and ultimately rejects it. 
Ahem 
philosophy 
Firefox 
Just installed this baby along with the "adblock" and "tab extentions" packs, and I must say its great. I was using Opera before but firefox kicks its arse big time. If anyone hasn't tried it yet I strongly recommend it.

No more ads evar! yeay!
