Poll #2

[Ilyanna]

This:

or this

?

 

[Dirk Funk]

War and Peace. I prefer good literature. I'd rather read Cat in the Hat a dozen times in a row than be forced to read Marx's insane ramblings.

 

[Ilyanna]

I see. Have you read an excerpt or the complete edition of either one?

 

[Dirk Funk]

I see. Have you read an excerpt or something of either one?

I've actually read both in their entirety. Marx is just wrong on so many levels. Tolstoy was a literary genius.

 

[Ilyanna]

That's interesting. I've tried to finish War and Peace about 3 or 4 times, and I just wasn't able to. I found it incredibly boring, I just can't find the genius in it.

Marx, otoh - I don't know, maybe it's because I was more interested in the topic, or because I have a slightly different perspective on many of his ideas than you seem to have, but I rather liked it. Doesn't say that I agree with everything he says, just that I found it an interesting read. Of course, it took me more than a year to finish it

 

[FBI parte due]

I'd rather have to finish either of them than have to read one more page of Ayn Rand's turgid, uninspired prose, though.

 

[eloisel]

They are both one of those where TL, DR came to mind.

 

[Ilyanna]

^lol, that was kind of the point

Although I agree more with Ayn Rand's philosiphy than Marx's, I agree that her writing is tiresome.

 

[Donovan]

Probably read them both, eventually. Gotta be in a certain mood for that kind of stuff and there's a long line ahead of them.

I am willing to bet my rather extensive savings that you have never even held a copy of 'Das Kapital', never mind read it.

A year? I finished it in a week, at age 16.

Considering your low reading comprehension skills, you more than likely scanned the pages at a rapid rate and have no understanding of what you read.

 

[Aquehonga]

It'd be interesting to read what actually came out of the horse's mouth.

Thus my vote.

Wait... what? I did not quite get that. Could you type that slower, please? Remember to take your girlfriend's cawk out of your mouth first.

 

[Ilyanna]

Oh Lucy, you doofus, it's not possible to type slower with a broadband connection!
And as much as you'd wish otherwise, I'm pretty certain eloisel does not have sexual intercourse with a woman while browsing TK.

 

[Donovan]

Luci had some trouble understanding his copy of the Marx book until he realized Harpo doesn't talk.

That's almost too clever for this board.

I'm voting Marx. I think there's more than a little Commie in me.

 

[Yub]

So, you keep a Red under your bed?

Gee, there's a surprise. A commie pinko 'tard.
