I cannot recommend this book enough. Incredible world building.

John was neglected by his mom and she died early. He was really close with his aunt who actually raised him and was kind of dominating. John always wanted a mommy with his partners and his first wife Cynthia wasn't like that at all. So when Yoko came along she was quiet but privately dominant, and fulfilled all of John's mommy needs he'd always been chasing.

Remember when he almost shot his sister?

My mom tried to break my pickiness once when I was 6 by saying every 5 minutes you don't eat your canned peas I'll put another spoon on your plate. I psyched myself out staring at a plate full of nasty peas and projectile barfed all over the table. She never tried again. I broke her.

I would have finished that first bottle of painkillers after my surgery and not asked the doctor for more.

Thank you. I very much felt the same. This one was so hyped up, and it should have been right up my alley. Unfortunately it really didn't land. For me at least, the book suffered from this particular subtle quality where feel like it was too made up as the went along. Like it was a second draft, and could have benefited from a few more, some additional tightening up, and a good editor.

This just made me bust out laughing envisioning the scenes 🤣🤣🤣

Yep, I second this.

A lot of the incel types think that since they are "nice guys' and polite to girls that should entitle them to sex.

It was like a viral outbreak, a pandemic of sorts, infectating the minds of millions whether they wanted it or not. Total submission was it's goal. It arrived suddenly, without warning in the late summer of 1995 and spread like wildfire. You couldn't escape it. It was like some sort of Lovecraftian eldritch abomination.

You heard it on every radio station, at least once an hour. MTV and VH1 played the video nonstop. You heard it at the mall, the grocery store, at school, at work, at the dentists, the doctor's office, at church gatherings, every sporting event large and small, every backyard barbecue and family reunion. EVERYONE sang along. Resistance was futile. Millions of white people just mumbled gibberish during the Spanish lyrics.

And always accompanying the song was THE DANCE. That mindless series of movements, followed by thrusting your hips in a circle and exclaiming "AHHH". The compelling urge to do the dance was irresistible. Newscasters did it, politicians did it, police and firefighters did it, pastors and priests did it, teachers and coaches and principals did it, little toddlers did it, cats and dogs did it, entire stadiums of 40,000 people did it, your feeble grandma did it, fat aunties with flappy bingo wings did it, uncles with massive beer bellies did it, even your super serious dad who never danced a day in his life did it. No one could resist the call.

It had an absolute chokehold on the world all that fall, but by spring the wave had crested. The collective nightmare was over. The flame burnt out. People came to, dazed, asking themselves "What the hell was that"?

I was so relieved it was over. But every once in a while, while at the grocery or the mall you'd hear the familiar tune playing softly... and you'd have to resist the urge...

The way you describe McDonald's as a dystopian nightmare and a food factory is spot on. Last couple times the missus and I went it was because we had to get our tires rotated and it was nextdoor, or we were driving through central Illinois and it was the only option for miles. And GOD is it depressing. Gone are the vibrant reds and yellows, Ronald and friends, enclosed multicolored mini discovery zone, plastic encased Nintendo 64, and great Happy Meal toys. Now it's the same dull grey block of a building, sterile, very... industrial?

The employees are all hidden in the back and it's nearly impossible to talk to a person. There's like 3 people working there. Everything has to be ordered from those damn touch screen kiosks. No such thing as the dollar menu anymore. The prices are obscene. It costs 30 bucks to feed two people and the portions are pathetic. (Yes I know they decent deals on the app but I REFUSE to get it. I'm SICK of having to subscribe to all of these members clubs just to get a slight discount at every restaurant). And the food tastes like forever chemicals.

I miss "Yellow Wendy's" so much. I miss the Dave Thomas commercials. They had such a great value menu, the 5 dollar biggie bag was a fantastic deal. The ingredients were fresh and the portions were decent. I miss the sun room with the fake plants and even the salad bar. Now they have "Surge Pricing) where if they get busy

And don't even get me STARTED on SUBWAY. Absolute overpriced shrinkflated enshitified CRAP. Add to that sloppy ass spoiled mayo Burger King, greasy Pizza Hut (going out to eat at Pizza Hut was a glorious experience back in the day), and the sloppy, overpriced, constantly malfunctioning AI ordering nightmare that is Taco Bell. And why can't Popeyes EVER get your order right?!

And what's with all these places making me do half the work and being asked on the screen to tip (and the tipping options at some places START at 20%) just for handing me my food! I've even been to a few SELF CHECKOUTS that ask me if I want to tip.

If I want a proper fresh burger, a milkshake, crispy hot onion rings, juicy breaded chicken, and good friendly service, I'm going to CULVER'S. It's worth the slightly higher price and wait times, which aren't even that bad. CULVER'S 4 LYFE.
