@Grindstone You're comedy, kid. You go on and on about the impotence of men who want to express themselves through violence but your main concern here is trying to prove your superiority to faceless strangers with the verbal (textual) equivalent. I was in a "Fight Club" as a teenager. Yes, it was puerile and pretty foolish but at the time it was something that connected with me far deeper than any of the seemingly meaningless shit that was getting thrown at me. When you've got so many people hassling you over your education choices, what job you're gonna do, the importance of toeing the line, the supposed responsibilities you need to be getting ready for which seemed (and some of it still does) like a load of horse-shit. I just wanted to feel alive. Vital. In the moment. In years since I've learned many better ways of achieving that feeling but there's a purity in violence, there's no denying that. Especially when there's no agenda behind it. You're not fighting for anything. Not even pride. You're just using every ounce of your fibre and honing your mind down to a focused point. I'd like you to explain more your criticisms that it's a story for people who've never had to face real hardship or work. Because with what you've given so far it seems like you just want to use that as a weak reason to denigrate people you don't approve of. You kinda sound like a Tory, mate...
