[...] I’ve said before, I’m not really much of a reader. Your parents may have told you that reading is cool, but [...]

Very late answer to dork matter – part of why I hated Number of the Beast was because I actually enjoyed Starship Troopers quite a bit, so NOB was a huge disappointment. And for my last pick, I’m happy to burn the comment written by ChunkyDark. People have different tastes, asshole. Some of the other drafters on this board have taken books I thought were terrific (well, not so many. I liked Infinite Jest; I don’t give two shits that CRP drafted it, if I cared so much about David Foster Wallace I would have drafted something else of his and gotten him off the board). There’s a reason why this draft got more comments than anything else I’ve seen, because it was fucking fun.

I just read went through 300-some comments to see if any of you smart fucks would skewer this dude for me, but you didn’t, so thanks a lot.

“Everything Will be Illuminated” by Jonathan Safron Foer.

I would like to meet the author just once so I could punch him in his smug goddamn face.

Fuck you assholes.
Between your literature hating, emotional repressed, homo-erotic, unimaginative, cheap liquor guzzling, narrow-minded, sexist, bandwagon sports following, short limped dick, spineless, 2-bit tranny whore fucking, syphilic riddled, Camero driving, mullet wearing, racist, fecal freak loving, tobacco chewing, pot bellied, basement dwelling, jerk-offs have deprived the world of some of the best books ever written.

At least future generations will be able to gather around my Kindle and enjoy them.

Infinite Jest. The most pretentious thing ever written in any language. And almost 1100 pages of it. I hope David Foster Wallace falls in the fire, too.

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. I had to read this over Christmas break for a high school English class and needless to say my break was ruined – the only thing that kept me from killing myself was one cuba libre after another, followed by the occasional mojito. “Oh Mr. Darcy, you are so annoying but I am attracted to you” “Oh Elizabeth Bennet I dont like you but now I have a hard on for you but you are of lower stature than I am” “Oh I am so progressive for breaking class boundaries-” “Oh I have to get married bla bla bla-” GET A REAL FUCKING PROBLEM YOU STUPID CUNTS. Fuck Jane Austen for subjecting the world to this crap, she can shove this book right up her dead asshole. Had I known this book would have been so bad I would have gladly eaten a steaming plate of my own shit to get out of reading it.

I give Oscar Wilde infinite credit for making The Importance of Being Earnest (the other book we had to read) a million times more readable…

“The Education of Little Tree”
Freshman year of High School they give us this crap. And this is just before either apathy set in or we learn how wonderful Sparksnotes really is, so you can bet your ass we read every horrible word. God dammit I hated this pile.

Honorable Mention: Undaunted Courage

A few years back, my wife joined this book club with a friend. So what do they pick for their first selection? Why, the story of Lewis & Clark and their quest to the Pacific of course – Undaunted Courage. Apparently nobody could bear to read it, as everybody kept coming up with excuses to delay the meeting. It got to be a running joke. I told my wife, how bad can it be and started reading it. I still don’t know what was worse – how slow or how boring it was, and I usually eat up history stuff.
