Plan the Perfect Crime

[ajbera]

The scarier thing is that it's likely true of most people.

I was afraid that I was going insane.

maybe I should take that 'silence of the lambs' poster hanging on my wall.

Perhaps having your dad's picture up on the wall, looking down on you, isn't the best thing for your self-esteem.

The six-fingered man strikes again!

What did you see, Clarice, what did you see?

[Gangerolf]

killing some random person would probably be relatively easy to get away with. but how rewarding is a purposeless crime like that? nah, it's better to steal the crown jewels or something.

[Az]

what if you have the irresistable urge to murder? (once again, "American Psycho" springs to mind. What a fun movie)

The book was even better.

The perfect murder:

Stab yourself several times in the back, climb into a black bag and push yourself into a river.

No one will ever suspect....

Bastards we may be, but there is not a single ****** among us!

Maybe I should try it, though I doubt I'll enjoy it, after having the graphic IV of the movie. ( Mind you, It's not that I am complaining. That movie felt like a hangover, but in a good way.)

[st_swithin]

Love hangover?

[Az]

love hangovers? They're the worst.

Bear in mind the book is rough in many spots. If you have a queasy stomach, don't read while eating.

I actually consider the book to be one of the most nihilistic pieces of art ever made. It's an exercise in emptiness and senselessness. Bateman has no breakthroughs or development, so the character is as much an empty bloody cypher as at the beginning. You learn nothing new, and, like a cocaine high, the experience is often exhilirating, but profoundly empty. Like both aspects of Bateman's life - brutal rape and homicide and extreme wealth and material consumption - it's empty, accomplishing nothing but the promotion of further indulgence and destruction, the Ouroborous (snake eating itself) incarnate as character and book.

Empty, sickening, and brilliant.

This is disturbing, and just another reason for never giving away any kind of personal information on the Internet.
