[Haggis_McMutton]

was it worth it?

[Phatscotty]

Don't you have one?

Here's mine

[john9blue]

most controversial book i've ever read? easy one.

[Lootifer]

Genuinely OT: (John and Scotty pushing their usual thread jacking snooze-fest material)

Was arguably one of the most messed up books i've ever read.

And yes I throughly enjoyed the satire.

Dude, its the most fucked up/controversial book I've ever read.

White men are not stupid

[Army of GOD]

Not terribly controversial but 48 Laws of Power, I guess. It just tells you to challenge popular views of morality to gain power (essentially lie, cheat, steal, etc.).

[PLAYER57832]

and did you like it and/or gain something from it?

was it worth it?

Darwanism under the Microscope: How Recent Scientific Evidence Points to Divine Design
Its classic Dr Morris discussion. This book, published in 2002, actually makes a point of "debunking" the old "oncology recapitulates phylogeny".. a theory debunked about 40 years ago (probably more)! Some of the old diagrams are used, but not as "proof of evolution"

If, sir, you, sir, choose to chew, sir,
with the Goo-Goose, chew, sir.
Do, sir.

Mr. Fox, sir,
I won't do it.
I can't say.
I won't chew it.

Very well, sir.
Step this way.
We'll find another game to play.

My poor mouth can't say that. No, sir.
My poor mouth is much too slow, sir.

Well then... bring your mouth this way.
I'll find it something it can say.

You don't have to be so dumb now....

Try to say this, Mr. Knox, please....

Through three cheese trees three free fleas flew.
While these fleas flew, freezy breeze blew.
Freezy breeze made these three trees freeze.
Freezy trees made these trees' cheese freeze.
That's what made these three free fleas sneeze.

Stop it! Stop it!
That's enough, sir.
I can't say such silly stuff, sir.

Very well, then, Mr. Knox, sir.

Let's have a little talk about tweetle beetles....

What do you know about tweetle beetles? Well...

When tweetle beetles fight,
it's called a tweetle beetle battle.

And when they battle in a puddle,
it's a tweetle beetle puddle battle.

AND when tweetle beetles battle with paddles in a puddle,
they call it a tweetle beetle puddle paddle battle.

AND...

When beetles battle beetles in a puddle paddle battle
and the beetle battle puddle is a puddle in a bottle...
...they call this a tweetle beetle bottle puddle paddle battle muddle.

AND...

When beetles fight these battles in a bottle with their paddles
and the bottle's on a poodle and the poodle's eating noodles...
...they call this a muddle puddle tweetle poodle beetle noodle
bottle paddle battle.

AND...

Now wait a minute, Mr. Socks Fox!

When a fox is in the bottle where the tweetle beetles battle
with their paddles in a puddle on a noodle-eating poodle,
THIS is what they call...

...a tweetle beetle noodle poodle bottled paddled
muddled duddled fuddled wuddled fox in socks, sir!

Fox in socks, our game is done, sir.
Thank you for a lot of fun, sir.

Now this thread is about books you read...so...

[Haggis_McMutton]

@Scotty: was it worth it? gain anything from it?

@ j9b: you really read it? I could never quite bring up the courage to read more than a few segments.

@ lootifer: hah, I'm sure I saw that somewhere before, not sure where though, I might have to pick it up.

@AoG. interesting. was it worth it? I liked "the prince"

@Player. Ugh ... you're braver than me

The Pedophile's Guide to Love & Pleasure: A Child-Lover's Code of Conduct

Wait ... So you actually read it?
Also this might need a new thread, but Amazon shouldn't have taken that book down.



-------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyway, my books. I just couldn't decide between these 2 goldies:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hit_Man:_A_Technical_Manual_for_Independent_Contractors


When I saw the movie about that idiot who used it as a guide for an actual homicide and that it was subsequently banned, I obviously had to download and read it immediately.
This was a long time ago, I don't really remember much of it, but I thought it was decent. Not near convincing enough to go "holy shit, by following these steps I could totally get away with murder" though. Jeez.

and

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/120_Days_of_Sodom


Erm, it was interesting. That guy's got some imagination I've got to say. (or at least I hope most of those were imagined).
Kind of comforting to know that no matter how fucked up a shock video you see, it's nothing new. "libertines" have been dreaming that shit up for centuries.

I actually kind of liked the style too, how he constantly switched from calling the protagonists villains or heroes. I'm actually kinda sorry he didn't get a chance to finish it properly.

[BoganGod]

The bible has to be the most fucked up book I've ever had the misfortune to read, incest, polygamy, murder, revolution, tax evasion, fake prophets, evil governments. Sounds just like julia andrews(flowers in the attic anyone) or the mormon church for that matter.

Blinded by the Right - reading it at present, seems to be pretty interesting.

Anything by or do with Sarah Palin is pretty scary. She could make the kiddies best seller "Spot goes for a walk" seem like an intellectual tour de force of minimalist wit.

So you are both of you saying you read that?

[Army of GOD]

@AoG. interesting. was it worth it? I liked "the prince"

Definitely. It has great historical anecdotes and it challenges basic morality. He references Machiavelli a lot too.

[demonfork]

I've read just about everything that there is to read and I'd say that Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs is by far the most fucked up...


2nd would be Pride & Prejudice.... I hate those stupid selfish cunts that Jane Austen loved to write about.

Chuck Palanhuik novels are always fucked up.

[thegreekdog]

I spent some time thinking about a controversial or fucked up book I've read. I can't think of one. Apparently my interest in science fiction and fantasy, to the exclusion of all other genres, has made me vanilla.
