Survivor (novel) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

from the author of fight club

awsome book, cant wait for the movie.

basically its about this guy, Tender who was out in society earning money as a bultler when his cult all offed themselves jonestown style and now he has some serious readjustments to do.. not that he does, he just ought to :). he runs a suicide hotline like satan would, gets famous, falls in love, hijacks a plane... hillarious book if you like your funnies black.

some quotes
After the caseworker told me about everybody in the Creedish district colony being dead and all, the first thing I did was start smoking. The smartest thing I’ve ever done is start smoking. When the caseworker dropped by to say rise and shine, and the only other surviving Creedish went south last night, then I sat myself in the kitchen and upped my suicide process with a good stiff drink. It’s church doctrine that says I have to kill myself. They don’t say it has to be a hurry-hurry instant quick death.
Here in the bathroom with me are razor blades. Here is iodine to drink. Here are sleeping pills to swallow. You have a choice. Live or die. Every breath is a choice.
Every minute is a choice.
To be or not to be.
Every time you don’t throw yourself down the stairs, that’s a choice. Every time you don’t crash your car, you reenlist.
You could call me a gentleman’s gentleman but you’d be wrong on both counts.
Here are condoms lined with a topical anesthetic for prolonged action. What a paradox. You don’t feel a thing, but you can fuck for hours.
This seems to really miss the point.
I want my whole life lined with topical anesthetic.
Right now, getting killed would be redundant.
The girl last night, the only other remaining survivor of the Creedish church district, she ate dirt. There’s even a name for it. They call it geophagy. This was popular among the Africans brought to America as slaves. Popular probably isn’t the right word.
 


Shoptimism - Why the American Consumer will keep on buying no matter what.

Interesting read into what really drives a person to not only want to buy something, but what goes on inside their head when they make the decision to buy.
 
How To Be Invisible by J.J. Luna is a great book! I read it 4 years ago and implemented the tips .... ghost address and cell phones FTW. Nigga you can't track me down!

Nine Ball by Jeffy -- I saw his DVD, "The Jeffy Show" and that it was great. I'm too cheap to buy his book ought ... only if there's an ebook ...
