  • I'm not saying it's a philosophical masterpiece or anything, but Holden makes me laugh. He moans in a very funny way. Like dragging those women around the dancefloor like they were the goddamn statue of liberty.

    • Oh i get that i guess. I just hate hearing people rave about it's meaning and thinking it's so deep, i mean it's content is all just common sense.

      Hairy Maclary on the other hand is a masterpiece, i mean a dog that gets chased by a cat with a scar on it's face, oh what a world!

      Hey what time is it where you are?

      • Middle of the afternoon, just turned 3pm. And yeah, I don't think there's any deep meaning. It's just Holden going on an epic whine (it's how I imagine Salinger probably was). It appealed to me when I was 16 because I was whiney and I liked that someone could publish that in a book.

        • Actually that's a good point. I only read it as an adult so i probably just looked down on it abit much.
