Best scenes in Lullaby SPOILERS!!!
The scene where Streator's under the guy's window ripping on the the page in the rain. He hears the guy crying from inside the trailer and then he cries himself. I thought that was very poweful.
And...
...
Maybe when he smashes of the model houses. That was one of those "I don't know what just happened, by I know it was cool" scenes in the book.
Water is the life-giver, water is god’s tears. Water is a burst vein of the earth. Water is the dream that dreams you. Water is you, in a state that is not yet you. Water is unmeasured spoonfuls of drowning. Water is the sleep of the sky. Water is left-over night. Water is unformed sorrow.
Streators walk from nash and the bar back to work...counting past ten.
Everyone dropping dead before him to the beat of 'where do the gods go' was pretty incredible as I read it for the first time.
I tell you all now that I've come to the conclusion that God is insane; it would explain everything.
This conclusion is watery, for I myself am more likely to be insane. What breaks it apart is I don't beleive in Insanity.
I think.
Chapter 3 was the best scene in my opinion. I also enjoyed the roller coaster scene with Helen and Carl.
All the intermediate ones with Carl and Sarge, because when you read through them again there are so many calculated similarities - like the Madonna whose genitals are shaved

I agree, I first got the hint that the madonna was mona because of the red and black dread locks.
I thought the whole coven scene in Mona's apartment was funny. I could just imagine Oyster popping up everywhere near Carl with his little rants about animal cruelty. All naked and angry.

When Carl accidentally kills the entire building. I thought it was a great suggestion as to how subconsciously addictive the culling song can be.
I like the scene when they're at Mona's for the coven meeting and everybody's talking to Carl at once. I think the way it's written really shows how Carl is feel a bit anxious about all the people. How Oyster is shouting in his ear and the woman is showing him the catalog and he seems to be so disoriented and bothered. I think that shows how much of an anxiety problem he has with other people.

Oyster killing Patrick. That might just be my all-time favourite Palahniuk scene.
Edit: Screw that-- my fave Chuck scene is still the final chapter of FC.

When he's counting and killing all those people, just random people who annoy him, and realizing the power he has and the impact he suddenly has on the world.
"I could tell by the tone of his voice that he was trying to make me see his point, but really...all I could see was the big fucking knife."
The last scene for me was the most powerful
starting at the cavity search to the part where you find out Helen isn't dead.

It's not really a scene, more of a plot twist, but the very last chapter.
When you finally realize that the italicized words were Carl. And the stories he had been telling were of Mona and Oyster using the spells. Made me gasp. I'm sure other people figured it out before, but ya know! 
Ahh yes, I forgot about the coven meeting!
That cracked me up so bad. When Helen keep drinking the "sacrifice."
First, the smashing the perfect model houses he spent ages on... i love it how he made them during all the noise they made, and when it was quiet smashed them, wakeing them up and hurting himself... Very deep
The relationship between Carl and Helen.. loved the way it built up...
And that kick in the gut when you realise it is Oyster in Helens body, and the whole smashing of Patrick, very powerfull...
But many many more, loved the book.
The people that mind dont matter, and the people that matter dont mind...
The morning his wife and baby died, having sex with the dead body of his wife and not realizing she was dead until he got home. Powerful, shameful, touching stuff.
Humankind cannot stand very much reality.
~T.S. Eliot
The last page of chapter 36, when he calls his dad after years of not talking to him, and his dad just cries - one of Chuck's more heart-wrenching passages I think.
I think when he called his dad was a really powerful scene as well. It was the first time we truly got a glimpse of how separated from his past life he had really become, how much of a shell he really was anymore.
The scene where he has sex with his dead wife is incredibly intense too, because it would be any other sex scene, but the dramatic irony of it makes it horrifying to us, as we see how oblivious he was, and how such a thing could happen to us as well.
The biggest shock for me was the revelation when Sarge says "You still love me don't you?" My jaw about hit the floor. It made me wonder what the hell was going to happen in those last few chapters so intensely that I couldn't set the book down. The twist end was really magnificent...over all, I loved the book from beginning to end, but these were some of my favorite scenes I guess.
We all die. The goal isn’t to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.

Yea the scene where he called his dad was powerful. I read that as Chuck speaking, not Carl. I could picture it so vividly, him wishing to speak to his dad. Especially given the time period the book was written.
I just finished this. Last time I read it was when I bought it, maybe 6 years ago. Does anyone else think this is a very-underrated book? I don't think he gets enough credit for this one.
douche
The smashing of Patrick, the frozen baby. And the death of Helens body. Good stuff.
"The elite ruling class wants us asleep so we'll remain a docile, apathetic herd of passive consumers, and non-participants in the true agenda of our governments - which is to keep us separate, and present an image of a world filled with irresolvable problems, that they, and only they, might one day, somewhere in the never-arriving future, be able to solve. Just stay asleep, America, keep watching TV." - Bill Hicks
