In the 1996 Chuck Palahniuk novel, Fight Club, (as well as the recent movie, which deviates very little from the book), the author uses a club in which grown men fistfight as a vehicle for a plot and analysis of modern culture. After hearing of recent instances of life imitating art poorly in a student "Fight Club" in the Presidents Park dorms, I thought it poignant to begin a short discussion of the book/movie... in …showed first 75 words of 697 total…

…showed last 75 words of 697 total…I’ve beaten all the other boxers, what now?" phase. Fight Club doesn’t imply we should start beating each other up. Rather, it states we should question existence and society and make logical decisions for what we want. Tyler Durden chose his path after self destruction... but that doesn’t mean one should follow him like an automaton... which, I might add was an underlying self-mocking joke in both the book and the film.
