we even have a class here called "subversive thinking"

am I the only one to see the complete and total irony in having a class in "subversive thinking"?


regarding Fight Club, I have seen the movie about 4 times, and while I think its a great film, I hated the ending. I think the reason is that Tyler Durden knows SO much about how everthing in society works, and how to manipulate it to his ends/advantage that I just dont see how he could think that blowing up a building or two is going to erase all the records of all those credit companies. It completely ignores the fact of remote backups. That little bit of logical inconsistency blows the ending for me. Also, it seems, for some reason, a bit stale or cliche. The movie is SO subversive all throughout, and then at the end, goes for a big Hollywood explosion. That bugs me. But other than the very ending, great film that I can watch over and over.

Havent read the book yet. Perhaps I should.
