Only the second time I've been moved to do so.

Utter rubbish.

[Wiggums5]

Why not just donate it to a library or something lol. Must have been really bad.

[yisman]

Funny thing is some people liked it, according to the Wikipedia article.

I burned it because it needed to be destroyed. No way I would donate it to a library. I don't want to be the cause of foisting that travesty onto others.

I read that book a long time ago. What did you not like about it?

[benjy]

What was the other book?

[yisman]

I was thinking about it and I honestly can't remember the name. It was several years ago.

yisman burning is an inefficient use for the book. Give them to your enemy so that they might absorb its essence and foster your hate for them even more.

I also have a few books I dislike: The Road by Cormach McCarthy is the first off the top of my head and pretty much everything hawked by spiritualist huckster Oprah.

[trixtrix]

okay, but you should be aware koran burning is considered illegal in many parts of the world

[LarrysKid]

I like your passionate response to something you found reprehensible.

another crap book: who moved my cheese. i read it when i took a crap and that is how long it takes to read it

Think green: Instead of burning the paper (thus producing CO2), you should have recycled the paper.

interesting post...and I liked who moved my cheese lol

[Jericholic]

I remember reading that book in Junior High and hating it.

[flocko76]

just reading the wikipedia entry makes me want to buy that book just so i can burn it

[chemicalbrother]

when we get a fire going in the backyard, i'll burn just about anything. next time i'll have to try a book, though seems like the smoke would be overwhelming.

pro tip: don't throw a golf ball into a fire and forget you did. it's getting ready to come back at you.

[yisman]

haha, those things will explode out of the fire, right?

The book did create a ton of smoke. I didn't realize how bad it would be.

It was such an evil book, though, that it took about 25 tries to really get it going. I was using matches, and either they wouldn't light, or they'd blow out before I could get it against the book, or they'd go out right away when I tried to hold it against the book. Finally I got a good blaze going which burned the latter half of the book, and then I did the first half. It went ablaze and pages and ashes started flying. I tracked down all the pages and made sure they burned as well.

The basic idea of the book is fine; it just can't sustain more than a few pages of text, and yet the author wrote a novelette about the shit.

This thread should be burned for wasting my time reading it!!!!

[yisman]

By that logic, you should be burned for opening it.

I found it instructive.

Thank you for taking part of your precious time to post an obviously required reply stating how we wasted your time.
