Tuffy the Dump Truck may rarely increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke. The risk may be greater if you have heart disease or increased risk for heart disease (for example, due to smoking, family history of heart disease, or conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes), or with longer use. Tuffy should not be taken right before or after heart bypass surgery. Also, Tuffy may infrequently cause serious (rarely fatal) bleeding from the stomach or intestines. This effect can occur without warning symptoms at any time while taking Tuffy. Older adults may be at higher risk for this effect. (See also Precautions and Drug Interactions sections.) Stop taking Tuffy and get medical help right away if you notice any of the following rare but serious side effects: bloody or black/tarry stools, persistent stomach/abdominal pain, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, chest/jaw/left arm pain, shortness of breath, unusual sweating, weakness on one side of the body, sudden vision changes, slurred speech. Ask your doctor if Tuffy is right for you.

I have to admit to being slightly disappointed when recently learning this myself. I thought Chuck was one of our team, a straight white male writer, with all his stories in Playboy and about sex and violence and whatnot. There are so many gay writers, kind of like Vonnegut's old adage: "If you really want to irritate your parents, and don't have the nerve to be homosexual, the least you could do is go into the arts..."

Is it inherently wrong for us straight white dudes to like writers on our team? Hell, it seems like the publishing industry is only too eager to snatch up writers from varied and different cultures to get representations for the Amy Tans and Jhumpa Lahiris..

hahahaha, what team ?

though, i do feel what you said about the industry cats snatching up gay writers. it's a proven fact that some record execs actually go out some nights looking for black rappers walking alone to shoot a few bullets into them and if they seem like they'll make it though, the execs will sign them right there on the smeary wet concrete by holding a pen in their limp hand and pressing the contract against it.

" fight club could not have been written by a straight man"

as arbitrary as this analysis is, i can say that Jsinn 1018 is
not wrong....
I was not surprised at all once i found out Chuck was gay.
Although i do NOT believe his sexual orientation, his "homosexuality",
directly plays into his writing.But more the concept,of "being
gay", holding a transgressive value in society. Chucks avant-garde/minimalist
style of writing could have laterally rooted from the idea that homosexuality, is a form of traditional(of course not exclusively)social and cultural revolt,revolution and subversion being of course themes present in most of Chucks work.
We see many of the fringe-writers of the past, and contemporary that our homosexual, which i believe is just a step into this form of writing.An inevitable social barricade that they, by nature, have to overcome. Bret Easton Ellis, author of the famed American Psycho is also "gay" as an example.
(i use gay in quotes, because it is a vernacular.... no intentions on offending anyone)

Just MHO.

wait! analysis is singular, "is" is appropriate in the first sentence and every sentence thereafter, devoteddexter! I gotta say I'm disappointed that Victor from Choke wasn't written as a bisexual character. I found Victor as a straight male as even more of a believability problem in the movie, although that's ultimately the scriptwriter Clark Gregg's fault. I don't know if Chuck was purposefully trying to appeal to the widest possible audience (lowest common denominator) in Choke by making Victor straight, but if he was I think it was a mistake. 99% of the time a writer's sexual orientation doesn't matter, but sometimes a gay writer tries to tap into a hetero's fantasies and misses the mark.
Maybe I should say 99.69% of the time.Wink
Thank you folks, all be here all week...

I don’t really see what its got to do with anyone else how a person lives their life, he ain’t hurting anyone, if you don’t like gay authors then your going to be pretty disappointed to know a lot of great authors in fact any artists, are gay.
I have a cool t shirt that says Homophobia Is Gay, I think that statement is perfect for here...

Wait he's still gay? I thought he gave that up for lint last year. I hear he does crazy stuff like that all the time.

Like the last time he gave it up for lint he just went and bought himself one of them rubber skin soft butt molds. But the amazing part was he used his own bottom to be molding with an insert able port access. He's friends and colleges suggested that was still being gay and Chuck responded in turn "Ain't nothing gay about fucking yourself. It's a tragedy bitches."

Well I would suggest wearing and buying panties.

Its a lot more interesting and you can relate to women easier without the pain of talking about the flavors of the dicks in the mouth.

not that they talk about that regularly. Or publicly

But I digress. Boy oh Boy! PANTIES!

They sure are soft an comfy!

That elastic isn't like mandies elastic. I don't leave that uncomfortable elastic circulation cutoff like the typical manties. And the variety of patterns and designs!

panties are probably the number one reason I could never be gay.
You know how girls get that "awwwwwwww" face and their eyebrows kinda point up together when they see a cute little puppy. I get the same way when I see those on a nice looking gal.
I'm an ole softy like that.

Who gives a fuck? Chuck is Chuck is Chuck. Where he chooses to pot his luck has less than a buck in my book.
Fight Club is also NOT his only book, nor can it be considered his best. It is agreeably fantastic, genius, but dude, it's neither about dudes in love or dudes beating each others' faces inside out, at least literally.
Chuck is pure-bred literary prophet, no matter his sexuality.

This thread is gay. Not gay in a homosexual way. Not gay in a happy way. It's the kind of gay used by a child referring to something he doesn't like, a child lacking couth, unaware of something called political correctness.

Instead of everyone going back and forth about Chuck being gay, read his Biography! And who gives a damn if he is!!! He is an inspiration!! I am straight. And I am married! But I will always and forever support GAY Rights!!
