Chuck Palahniuk On Shoplifting

Posted September 19th, 2008 by Dennis

This was recorded from Borders 1, while in Ann Arbor, MI, for Chuck's 'Snuff' tour. Chuck explains how to prevent stock shrinkage by teaching fans the best books to steal! Hysterical.

Thanks, Chuck. The shoplifter in me has never been so conclusive.

Pick up one of those free weekly papers that are available in all mid-sized cities and slip magazines or slim paperbacks between its gaily-colored pages.

i noticed that too. I'll still buy his books and all but I got serious doubts as to the guys pop culture suggestions anymore.

also, those seemed to be terrible shoplifting techniques he was giving!

Hmmmmm.... Yeah those little magnetic strips Chuck mentioned. I've found that they are most often slipped into the bindings or in the pages or sometimes behind the cover, but nevertheless some very good reading suggestions, and very bad shoplifting techniques.

While Brolin wasn't in it, I think he has seen it because I remember him using the plot points from the film in one of his monthly essays.

I have yet to see it as well.
