Yes it's better then the movie, but if you can't make a decision wether or not to read a book without a forum holding you hand it will most likely be to high-brow for you.
Also, omnidata, your going out of your way to try to make me look stupid, when you gave me exactly what i wanted by asking this question; a solid, short answer to a question that the internet would have given out a longer more diffused answer to which i didnt want. So your kind of a hypocrit.

Ah, look the lamb want's to become a sheep, there's no hypocrisy to be found in my earlier statement, I do however retract that statement and would like to substitute it with: "definitly far too high-brow for you."
Also I don't go out of my way to make you look stupid, you do that too yourself, to me you are simply a hole in the air, but since I just did take the minimal effort of responding, there's my hypocrisy, now you do have that point going on, albeit with help from me.
I've read just about everything Bret Easton Ellis has ever written and it's all pretty damn fantastic.
The satirization and lampooning of materialism and pop culture obsession is amazing. There are literally chapters devoted to breaking down albums by Huey Lewis, Whitney Houston, and Genesis/Phil Collins.

After you post do you click back on the thread and reread what you wrote, jacking off to it furiously?
I get that feeling from you. Maybe you studied english in college, and like to go strutting your stuff on the internet, even though you couldnt build something or solve a math problem to save your life.
Youre one of those people who cant get it through their heads that they are actually inferior to some people, even in as small a community as this. Dont worry man. Youre not alone. The internet is full of people like you who jerk it to their own facebook pictures.
Where are you omnidata? Thinking of another shallow line of thought to embellish so you can condescendingly spew it to whatever retarded friends you dont even have? Hoping that nobody realizes what a fake intellectual you are?
Dude, youre a joke. You probably majored in womens studies at some 25 dollar a course comm college and think that your ineptness in math and science is compensated for by your ability to use wordy conceited language.
Its alright to be inferior man, it just takes getting used to.
Finish fucking your father already and get back to posting your retarded shit. Im looking forward to it.

^wtf is jezebel? I could probably ask him to tell me something novel, deep, and interesting and i doubt he would be able to while if he asked me for the same, i could tell him something that would turn his world upside down. Thats the difference iq makes. Highly trained verbal logic is attainable for anyone. Counterintuitive intuitions arent.

If you liked the movie and like reading then, yes, I expect you'd like the book. It's like the movie, but more violent, more sexual, more everything.
And please stop with the whole "you might know how to read but I bet you suck at math" bit. Different people are good at different things, there's no reason to go around acting like the thing you happen to be good at is inherently superior to the things you happen to be bad at.
^thanks. Yeah all i was looking for was some positive reviews on the book. I dont really know why omnidata felt he needed to insult me for asking that question.
As for language vs math and science, both are important, but math and science are the limiting reagants for what makes our society as technologically advanced as it is today. Your iphone is built by the understanding and application of mathematics. Theres no yellow book titled "building smartphones, for dummies"

True, but the humanities are ultimately what give us culture, which the maths and sciences largely don't provide. Again, two different things which different people place different values on which is stupid to argue over. It comes to the same thing: different people think different things, no need to go around starting fights about which way of thinking is most correct.
Not so much about which is more correct than which is more valuable. Its subjective, as you suggest. Some people might prefer a world where there are machines that can read our thoughts directly and interface with other peoples consciousnesses but little in the way of arts and liturature. Others might prefer a world with pre industrial revolution technology but with phenomenal feats in the realm of arts and literature.
Again, its subjective in my opinion.
Taj ive gotten my fix yes and was feeling magnanimous, but omnidata really put a damper on it with his unprovoked insult. I dont really care tho... It is what it is.
SpssAlso, omnidata, your going out of your way to try to make me look stupid, when you gave me exactly what i wanted by asking this question; a solid, short answer to a question that the internet would have given out a longer more diffused answer to which i didnt want. So your kind of a hypocrit.
Don't forget today when you wake up that your entire life is just an emergent epiphenomenon of consciousness and your body is a simple protein computer bound by the laws of physical determinism. Also everything is meaningless and all art is illusion. good luck dum dum omnidata for life, OMG guys I'm so smart praise me kids on a ski form, I bet spss all like Derp /thead
And yet you go around talking about how much better people who can do math are than people who can't do math. Or at the very least that's what you seem to be implying, even if you don't say it outright.
Spss and omnidata actually sat over a chess table with piping hot tea this morning and discussed what thread they were going to make to spark an argument.
Far fetched? I think it was a reasonable thread. The first post was a good answer but he had to insult me. Nobody insults spss. Im a statistics program.
You didnt tho because you basically paraphrased things ive said which im proud of. Shittily paraphrased but paraphrased nonetheless. You probly take my ideas and tell the to your friends. This might not be true in the event you have no friends. You also eat your own feces, telling others that its an acquired tasted preferred by supreme intellectuals. I disagree with that assumption.

See now you're stealing my intellectual post by saying you wrote them, which you didn't, and now you're stealing my insults I've already used on you. Steal from me once fuck you, steal from me twice and I'm coming to fuck you.
