I've just bought the first book in the Dexter series "Darkly Dreaming Dexter", and I'm sure I'll continue with the rest of the series.

Just...ugh.

I ordered Simulacra and Simulation a few days ago, because I've never actually read it *braces self*, so I will be annoying those of you who have already read it as and when I've read it.That is all.
Look forward to it, ya no Simulacra and Simulation readin' mofo.
I feel so inadequate in this thread. I just read a book about a boy in a boat with a tiger (although, in the end, it was much much more than just that) while you guys are reading Simulacra and Simulation and Nietzsche.
At least I knew who Nietzsche was without having to Google him. That counts for something, right?
But I did have to google how to spell inadequate.

Indeed, as will I.I think one of the most fascinating things about this book is that you can find a little of all the orgs' perspectives and philosophies as Ex and I have talked about at a ridiculous time of the morning(for me at least), this morning.
I almost felt guilty, as I'm sure at one point you forgot you were in the middle of a conversation and dozed off . Either that or my skills as a conversationalist are as honed as my abilities in the field of nuclear physics. .
S & S - read, and converse.
