    People make fun of the cult around HST but he was really one of those generationally-talented writers. I'm actually reading Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail right now.

    Not much of a reader at all

    But I really love the way Hunter S. Thompson writes, Fear and Loathin in Las Vegas would be my favorite.

    A book about BP from you needs to happen bro. Either way make a thread when the book is released to remind us. I'll be picking it up for sure.

    Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Traii is exceptional. id say it should be your blueprint but its influence is already everywhere

    Lol intuitive guys

    @Translucent salinger was another favorite in hs. Reading "Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters" after seeing Royal Tenenbaums was incredible. Somewhere Online there's a bootleg video of my friends and I shooting a play of
    "Just Before the War with the Eskimos"
