  • DickButtKiss : The book was an allegory about gay anon s*x, and the bathhouse scene

Fight club movie misses the point of the book. The narrator is a fricking loser who doesn't know what he's doing. All the bomb recipes are made up because you can't publish that kinda shit, but in the book it's integrated into the story. Since Tyler was never real the Narrator has no idea how to actually make bombs so all his bombs are shit and fail and he's arrested and sent to an insane asylum where he lives in endless fear of the violent, hydra organization he's created. Operation Mayhem is as nihilistic and pointless as the capitalist life he lived before. The movie aggressively misses the point. !bookworms

The problem with fight club is that it cucks in the end, it makes it seem that doing a violent revolution and blowing up banks is actually le bad!

!commies rate on a fricking scale of 1 to 10 how disappointed you were fricking that the fricking film didn't go on to show Edward blowing up even more capitalist Jew bastards, b-word? I dock a fricking point from the fricking perfect 10 this movie would otherwise get for this reason.

  • DickButtKiss : How do you do all that and not blow yourself up

!fedposters !ifrickinglovescience !chemistry !bookworms

You always purchase soap oils in the form of triglycerides.

We will discuss later how you can make a more potent version of TNT from crushed aspirin and easily purchased acids.

For now, we will learn how to make nitroglycerin from Etsy wine mom purchases.


A triglyceride consists of three long-chain fatty acids united by a glyceride molecule. !biology

If you add a strong ionic base such as sodium hydroxide (lye as correctly stated in !fightclub) then you release the three long-chain fatty acids from the glycerin and can make soap.

The glycerin layer is visible and extractble.

Let's review something you have seen before. Maybe a magician who made some fire appear out of nowhere? He used "flash paper" which is nitrocellulose. It's made by soaking any form of paper* in 2:1 sulfuric acid and nitric acid.

Literally do the same thing with glycerin. Now you have nitroglycerin. Add an intert filler and now it's dynamite.

Likewise you can start with toluene which is merely a benzene ring with a methyl group. Nitrate it the same way and you end up with trinitrotoluene, aka TNT.

Phenol is a similar structure, but is a benzene ring with a hydroxyl group. It nitrates the same way and is more explosive, and was the early HE in WW1, but was replaced with TNT for increased safety. The final explosive produce is called picric acid.

If you want to make picric acid you can just take your mom's aspirin bottle and watch YouTube.

making bombs is insanely easy if you have acess to nitric acid

which of course means that it's impossible to get in macacoland !macacos :chudtantrumfast:

Thanks for the fricking tips, motherlover!

:marseynotesglow:

I've already converted all the fricking fabric and paper in my house into nitrocellulose and was fricking looking for other things to do with the fricking leftover nitric acid.

More importantly, Chuck Palahniuk missed the point of the book, and the point of all his books, which is that he desperately wants a real man to grab him by the throat, slam him against a wall, and tear his butt apart. :marseytariq2:

Unfortunately, he's a racist twink who refuses to associate with anyone other than !pnw Mayos like him and his husband, so that'll never happen. :marseyhomoitsover:

!bookworms, if you think I'm joking or exaggerating, read Adjustment Day. If anything, I'm understating it. :marseycoomer3:

It was fun and amusing, but it doesn't say anything serious. Its core message is teenage angst about growing up.

Surely if a movie fails to such an extent to reflect the book, you should consider whether the movie is making the same point as the book.

Operation Mayhem is as nihilistic and pointless as the capitalist life he lived before.

Doesn't the movie make that pretty clear tho? :tayhuh:

Movie is more ambiguous as they win in the end whereas the book implies project mayhem will go on forever as its more enjoyable fricking with the system vs actually tearing it down.
