What was the point of it all?

I don’t know, I never finished it because I was reading it on my phone. It would make for a cool movie tho.

>It would make for a cool movie tho.
I think so too. They did make a movie with Michael Caine but apparently it's no good. I think you would need someone like Kubrick to do it, although I guess Eyes Wide Shut is similar in a lot of ways, even though it's based (pretty faithfully) on a different book.

If you get it, you REALLY get it. It filters most people though.

A little help for you.

It was all syphilitic psychosis

Navel-gazing. The protagonist is the author's self-insert, and undergoes a full-on psychoanalysis by Conchis and his crew.

Maybe the real Magus was the mind games we played along the way

Can a sex-haver explain what makes sex fun? I see stuff about eroticism and don't understand it. Sort of like seeing girls dance. I don't get it.

now that's what i call autism, no but maybe ur gay tho

>>25384341
Maybe. My sister has asked if I am gay multiple times in previous visits to her out of state. Not being in a relationship for years has been more disturbing to her than being gay for some reason.
I don't think I'm gay. I like boobs but being with a woman makes me feel uncomfortable.

lol yeah ppl just assume if ur single too long u must be gay but personally i have schizoid personality disorder now way in hell i'm getting into a non-avoidant relationship

Feels better than jacking off and feeds the ego

I'm not a sex haver but I tasted a girl's breath once on accident and it was like being struck by lightning and I got an instant erection in public from it

Sex is for reproduction. Non-reproductive sex is validation for guys who didn't get enough female validation from their mothers as children.

Theater to entertain themselves. Basically a miniature cult with Conchis as the leader, all bought into his philosophical and psychoanalytic ideas, too much money and too much free time, entertaining themselves by staging elaborate theater at the expense of whatever poor sod happened across them. Marquis De Sade quotes begin each section of the book, and that's not by accident.

It's fine. Perfectly adequate way to spend an evening. Nothing to write home about.
