she is home sick and you want her to cook for you... pig!

you need to pretend to look all right at the office. otherwise that reese's-cup woman will see you looking all wilted and say things like "WELL WELL it looks like miss prepciamo made herself sick by EATING two days ago!"

Camus, The Stranger:

"So I learned that even after a single day's experience of the outside world a man could easily live a hundred years in prison. He'd have laid up enough memories never to be bored"

okay, he forgot the wo- prefix...

fortunately, you: A: have an indian buffet accessible, somewhere,

and B: you will feel better, regardless

 

[minxnim]

yea maybe i will be able to face the indian buffet by friday and it will cure all.

nick dropping camus on the board...

qoute something from the plauge that goes along with this thread...

 

[goatschool]

goddamnit, i'm trying to do work here.

"A pestilence isn't a thing made to man's measure; therefore we tell ourselves that pestilence is a mere bogy of the mind, a bad dream that will pass away. But it doesn't always pass away, and from one bad dream to another, it is men who pass away, and the humanists first of all, because they haven't taken their precautions."

and a sentence later:

"They fancied themselves free, and no one will ever be free so long as there are pestilences."

so:

- eat indian food as a precaution
- don't stress so much
- we're all imprisoned but occupying ourselves with messageboards saves us from the abyss
- camus forgot about the gender issue.

I enjoy eating sambar when sick, especially when it's quite spicy

 

[minxnim]

the plague was the first book my mom and i ever read together.

 

[deadair]

that is a rough book... i had a hard time getting through it... just, do dark for me (at the time i first tried to read it)

it's really a downer...

well, so is the stranger... but in a totally different way.

Camus is one of those guys who almost makes the French not suck!

 

[goatschool]

the weird thing is that i'm reading the stranger right the fuck now.

i prefer Gide

 

[deadair]

alex... don't kid yourself... the french still suck.

i know you said 'almost'... but, he doesn't even help them get that close.

 

[deadair]

sayin'

 

[minxnim]

the french are like, okay. plus camus totally wasn't hanging out in actual "france" all that much, ya heard?
i think 'the stranger' is one of the greatest novels of all times, hands down.
