I know so many girls who are into Ayn Rand. What the hell. Those books are pretty poorly written, and objectivism is a stupid crock of shit. The Fountainhead is especially ridiculous, when he pretty much straight up rapes the bitch and she likes it.

That being said, Anthem is a decent little dystopian sci-fi book.

They aren't poorly written, but I do not agree with her beliefs. I'm a fan of we.

they're not that well-written either. here's a drinking game - take one every time the word "brusque" ( / "brusquely" etc.) appears in the second half of atlas shrugged.

I like her writing style decently. But I'm into a lot of her beliefs as well so that changes how I perceive it. Anyway where the hell are you finding these girls? They're probably just begging to be raped.

I cant be arsed myself but if somebody wants to find a youtube clip of Officer Barbrady going on about how shithouse Atlas Shrugged is, i'm sure it would be both topical and hilarious.

I love how people get into rand real hardcore sometimes and then grow out of it.

You wanna be like Rorschach?

I just reread this recently and it was pretty noticeable. I did not like the book the first time I read it and this time I just kept thinking about how John Galt's speech at the end could have been cut down like fifty fucking pages and it would still seem way too long. That being said, I know my sister really likes the book.

i was going to buy Atlas Shrugged the other day just to be an asshole. i didn't know she was actually a bad writer.

She's not really a bad writer, it's just that her style is so overblown. She tries really hard to write "epic" books. Atlas Shrugged is pretty unreadable it's just so... blah. It's like she's just forcing objectiviism down your throat with a plumbers snake. The Fountainhead is a little more subtle. lol, I just used the world subtle in an Ayn Rand converstation.

I heard they're going to make a movie out of Atlas Shrugged. I'm excited. I hope it's as ridiculous as the book.

As far as the whole objectivism thing, it's kind of an interesting theory, she just takes it a little too far. I'm glad I read The Fountainhead, it did make me think a little bit.

Apparently my girlfriend had an Ayn Rand stage in high school. I'm glad I didn't know her then.

Amazing, I thought this girl was the only one. My ex girlfriend was all over Ayn Rand. I haven;t talked to her for a few years so she;s prolly over it, now.

You could probably do the same with "save for" in Anthem.

That's cute. I'm not a native Spanish speaker nor am I anywhere near good or practice it, but I took many years of Spanish and then Italian. What was helpful to me was mastering the alphabet in each. Unlike English these languages are phonetic, and what you hear is what you get. Towels is "toalla", and the double l is pronounced as a y. Like g+ anything else in Italian. Famigla. Pignoli.

Yes! It's disgusting. Rand fans are not big thinkers.

Never read her books and I don't really feel like I need to. I despise everything she stands for and think she was pretty much a despicable piece of trash

btw she collected welfare under a pseudonym

I've never met a male who identified Rand as one of his favorite authors, but I have met several women who really like her
