Default Fight Club, right here, right now.

Of course, you all know the rules.

Hurt yourself. That's the point. Down to the core, down to the bottom.

When you want to be happy, you acknowledge you are unhappy.

Instead, cultivate a burning desire to be hurt in the worst possible way you can imagine. Don't avoid it, work for it. Make it your goal.

Think of what you hate, and become that. Think of what you stand for, and renounce that. Stop your struggle for peace and harmony and start struggling for despair and destruction.

Get yourself arrested, get pregnant at 17, ruin your life. When everything's gone, then something will finally start to matter.

Ah, hell.

That was evident from the beginning. :P

Think about it, though. Then every social plunder, when people get so angry at you, it's funny.

Durden, on the floor, getting the **** beat out of him. He was laughing. That's what I mean.

It's awesome.

I usually hate violent movies but that one is a classic. "I'm gonna go inside and come back with a shovel"... eheheheh.

All the ways you wish you could be, that's me. I look like you wanna look, I **** like you wanna ****, I am smart, capable, and most importantly, I am free in all the ways that you are not.

It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything.

Tomorrow will be the most beautiful day of Raymond K. Hessel's life. His breakfast will taste better than any meal you and I have ever tasted.

Probably the best quote from that movie. Sums up everything into a nice little sentence.

Keyword: movie. It might look like a good idea on screen but it doesn't necessarily translate into a good idea in real life.

The movie, when it came out, did spawn similar copycat behaviour in young adolescent boys.

My brother said he knew guys who worked at an abbatoir in melbourne, who would get together at the end of every week and beat the snot out of each other!

Guess killing beasts and chopping them up all day takes it's toll on ones sense of self-love and respect??

Ehh. Common misconception.

Until you lose love and respect, until you dive headfirst into your worst fear--the thing you think you can't live through--you'll always be trapped by what you love.

And that's a disservice to your love AND your respect.

have any experience with killing someone for example.

I think there are more productive methods for self destruction. For example, love someone with your whole heart and have them eventually hate you. Drop all other attachments to everything else all for them but have them be the worst scum of the earth, and drop you.

Make your worst fear losing them. And then lose them.

Doesn't hurt anyone but yourself. and it is only emotional pain rather than physical.

Isn't imagining this stuff enough? Rubber band analogy I guess.

To accept that all is illusion and that none of it matters is key I think cause then what you want doesn't matter either. SO reconcile to sitting on a park bench homeless without a care in the world cause you are so now.

Eckhart had it right. Polarity accept it and know what could happen and let go of the fear, then move on and continue with your dream.

Afterall, all is meaningless, when you get that and know nothing can effect the state of being you choose, it really does stop mattering. Even what others may go through cause of you cause it is all realised at the end when we get together in another dimension and realise how meaningless it all really was.

So play thats all there is to do, play play play and make it as good or bad as you want but bloody enjoy it every step of the way cause if your conscious you chose it. At least have that decency.

But then it doesn't stop there, allow yourself to feel crap, take your state of being to the depths of hell, experience it all. I guess it would take a hell of a strong or enlightened or maverick of a person to do this.

I am at the point where the worst is accepted and allowed for, no fear of it now. However, the choice is made and the reality chosen will come forth but if it doesn't I am still fine. Always fine.

Peace out.

Eh, that's one way to do it. I agree with nic, though, when she says it's all in your head.

What's the difference if you can murder someone just as easily as you can break your own heart?

Default Punch into the face #Fight Club

Won't hurt you, but standing on your cat's tail.
Coin has dropped and expecting a punch into the face.
Fight Club will never go out of vague such as human nature.

No rules

I had a friend that started a Fight Club and used to videotape it. I never fought in it, but I did see some of the video. He was thinking of changing his name to Tyler Durden. He actually told people to call him Tyler that he met. It is how he introduced himself. When I went to visit him, he told me to address him as Tyler so that nobody knew his real name. Sure, the movie was great, but I would never go this far as to become the character.
