I hate provincial motherfuckers who knock literature they've never read with flimsy philosophies no one with a functioning brain cell could agree with.

"I won't read Brave New World. My brother read some of it in high school and said it was all about drugs and vulgar sex. As a Christian, I'm offended by that sort of thing. It should be censored!"

No, seriously. Someone fucking said that to me today.

:mfinger:
 
If it makes you feel any better, Black Beauty was banned in South Africa just for having "black" in the title.

Countless books have been banned for one reason or another. Harry Potter for being all "devil worshipy", Alice in Wonderland because of talking animals, even Animal Farm for being Communist. Yeah, the last one seems made up, but I swear it isn't.
 
It's pretty interesting, in a scary kind of way, to look at all of the books that have been banned over the years. For example:

Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn
Alice in Wonderland
Anne Frank: Diary of a Young Girl
To Kill a Mockingbird
Uncle Tom's Cabin
Macbeth
The Merchant of Venice
1984
Of Mice and Men
Frankenstein

I can understand that someone, somewhere, will probably be offended by any book. But it still amazes me that books are banned for "our protection".
 
I love how books are hated by people that are so stupid, that they keep reading it when they don't like it. I have an idea, CLOSE THE FUCKING THING. It's not hard, you don't like something, stop. If I can stop poking my finger in my eye cause it hurts, I'm sure some dim wit can figure out how to stop reading a book.
 
Something that still has me chuckling at times nowadays is the fact that when I was in elementary school, they banned the Dr. Seuss for like half the school year because it supposedly had "homosexual tendencies" in its books.

There's just something about green eggs and ham I guess. Although, if it was green I don't think anyone would touch it.
 
Someone said that to you? That's pretty fucking gay:mfinger:

You should've told them to fuck off and flicked they're nose... Why? I don't know...:thumbsup: But seriosuly, tell them to suck it, and bust they're lip open. Do it with a buddy... It's always funner with a buddy...:tongue:
