Girl Attempts to Become Munkus, Succeeds

Penguin Incarnate

So, Chuck Palanuick wasn't lying.

(WCCO) Minneapolis A 6-year-old Edina, Minn. girl has been hospitalized after a horrific accident at a swimming pool.

Good to know.

Teh Ericka

I just re-read Survivor last week. It is such a good book, you know.

Abigail will have to be fed intravenously for the rest of her life and will have to have a colostomy bag.

Survivor is, in my opinion, the only novel of truly literary worth that Palahniuk has turned out.

Choke was close.

All-in-all, the guy is more or less just a wildly overrated fellow churning out the dude version of chick-lit.

I'm not very thrilled about this thread.

I've been having pooping problems the past couple of days.

"It was like good, fully developed veal, not young, but not yet beef. It was very definitely like that, and it was not like any other meat I had ever tasted. It was so nearly like good, fully developed veal that I think no person with a palate of ordinary, normal sensitiveness could distinguish it from veal. It was mild, good meat with no other sharply defined or highly characteristic taste such as for instance, goat, high game, and pork have. The steak was slightly tougher than prime veal, a little stringy, but not too tough or stringy to be agreeably edible. The roast, from which I cut and ate a central slice, was tender, and in color, texture, smell as well as taste, strengthened my certainty that of all the meats we habitually know, veal is the one meat to which this meat is accurately comparable."

i heard this same story in middle school.
i thought it was one of those urban legends.

I don't really care for Chuck Palahniuk. After a while all his books start to sound the same, and the main characters are always such complete douchbags.

What impressions do you get from the quote about the subject at hand? the author? anything in general?

Oh man, about 10 years ago 20/20 did a story on this very issue, the pool drains ripping people to shit (no pun intended). Every time I went in the pool after that for about 6 months I stayed way the fuck away from those things. Damn I was frightened they were gonna chew me up. The question remains, how do people get their asses so close to those drains? I mean, I don't normally sit on the deep end of the pool with my drawers off.

yo, that's friggin sick

Yeah, I think he likes good, fully-developed veal. And now I'm fucking hungry, thanks a lot, Mister Veal Freak.

Fight Club was pretty cool. I enjoyed that movie, and then I read the book, and I enjoyed the book.
