Advertisement on a forum about Fight Club
I think it's fucking shameful to have advertisement:
''Get a flat stomach in 3 months''
on a forum 'bout FIGHT CLUB.
Way to lose all of your credibility in a minute.
Are there any people out there who truly buy those anti-materialistic ideas?
What a disappointment, I was expecting a community of people who somewhat shared some ideas in the book and you get this empty place filled with advertisement.
Shameful.
got a screencap of this ad? I don't see it anywhere.

I think it's shameful that the Holocaust ever happened.

duhhhhhhhhhh, it didn't!
Since you obviously don't understand how ads work on the internet:
We give ad space to a company that sells ads, for instance, Google. Google then accepts ads from advertisers and runs them in the area of the website that we allow.
Generally, advertisers will not target individual sites for their ads, instead they will target all sites in a specific segment. Or they will choose specific keywords, and when those words show up on a page, their ad can show up on it. So that same ad will show up on thousands of websites.
Obviously people click those ads, otherwise the advertiser wouldn't be selling a product at all. If people click a weight loss ad from a Fight Club forum remains unknown.
And I hate to break it to you, though we are probably all fans of Fight Club, you'll find very few people who view it as a handbook on how to live their lives.
S you in your A's. Don't wear a C and J all over your B's
From Fight Club, I learned to not be so materialistic. I learned I'm not defined by the stuff I own, and I learned to criticize my reasons for desiring certain things. Fight Club taught most of us to look for what is actually necessary. However, we all need to make a living. Advertising may cause a lot of problems within individuals, but it's also how good products get recognized, and it is in fact necessary in this particular mass society. Believe me, I want to run off to Alaska "Into the Wild"-style as much as the next die hard Fight Club fan, but as long as I'm here, and you're here, we have to live with these necessities. If you want to live in this society and apply what you learned from Fight Club, just make good judgements by spending your time and money wisely according to what you really need to achieve a certain level of fulfillment, and don't let advertisements dictate your life. If you really believe that this site shouldn't have advertisements, then start donating enough money to keep this site going without having to display any ads. Otherwise, shut up and stop complaining.
Burned out.
and get this. get this! this is the worst part! the most shameful part of all!
the site not only has an ad advertising its want of more advertising, it also has--gasp!--ads for FIGHT CLUB t-shirts!
oh the shame! the shame of it all!
someone alert chuck that the ideals he believes in so strongly, indeed so strongly that he had no choice but to embody and immortalize them in the form of our beloved tyler durden (his very own John Galt for all you Randiphiles keeping score), are being undermined by the very site that bears his name!
for shame, I tell you! shame!
seriously, dude, get the fuck over it.
also, it's a work of fiction.
also, it's a work of fiction.
YOU'RE A FUCKING LIAR!
I wonder if he knows the other thing about Chuck that seems to make n00b heads asplode?

I just thought it was a fun book to read. o.o
og eg kan vel ikkje berre vere ingen stad heller -
and I can't just be nowhere either
Classic reaction.
Does this mean, that if we just make threads about gay-porn, we'll end up with gay-porn ads?
yes, and we did that. we even brought back the lathes a few times, intentionally. that was fun for a few days or so.
I'm a real nice guy, loyal to his family and friends, like to help old people and I play well with children, but there is a very dark side to the moon. A predilection for the psychopathic, I have a history of violence I would like to herald always as ancient history. But some guys just wont listen, just wont let go.

i met a morey look-alike who might argue about the single part.
what makes this a fight club site ?
this is a chuck palahniuk website with a kickass workshop and offers booktalk threads and news and a place for likeminded and non likeminded to banter away their days. so, dont complain about some moral you may or may not hold true conviction with anyway and play instead. life's too short to always eat lemons and shortchange people. or so saith or whatever the good book.

well, it is the Fight Club forum.
so more than likely that person thought this forum is what made up the cult
how odd, how many never check out the features section
or read the interviews
et cetera
most of this website is free on account of advertisements..
ho hum, wasting thought.

quadruple the ads = free writers workshop for all!
Have ads halfway through each person submission! Sort of like a commercial break during a tv show.
