Genius...the whole thing. Simply fucking genius.

I know, it's crazy how Kurt can crystallize my thoughts so perfectly for me. All that stuff has occurred to me, I just can't say it near as beautifully as he can.

I didn't have enough time to read what the thread was about. but if you haven't read his book Slaughter House-Five and if you are into books at all, I suggest you go get this one. Its a good one. Had to read it for school and do analysis on it. Its a very good book.

I've read it. I'm actually reading it again with the new gurlie :stickman:

There are actually very few books by Kurt Jr. that I haven't read. He is BY FAR my favorite author. I often tell people that if they want insight into me, to read Vonnegut. He writes like I think...all sporadically and such.

And man, if you liked Slaughter House Five, then read Cat's Cradle. It's another of his early ones. Breakfast of Champions is also great.

Sorry for the bump, but more of you should read this :yes: :cool:

I think he had a lot of truth to say about the world of today...wow.

I actually printed this out and sent it to my mom who's a huge Vonnegut fan. She loved because it is, in fact, genius. Actually, it's beyond genius. Find a word that means "beyond absolute fucking genius" and apply it to this article.

Yeah, I printed up a couple copies and stuck them around my house. Gotta educate the masses :rolleyes: Or is that educate the asses?

Steve, being a fan myself, I believe that word is actually "Vonnegut" :yes:
