    I read Atlas Shrugged because the designer of Bioshock said it was the main inspiration for the game.

    I didn’t realize they were making fun of it until after I read it. I don’t remember why I read The Fountainhead, but after that one I realized she just fucking sucks.

      She was such a bag of dicks, wan’t she? Pseudointellectual and edgy teenagers read it because it feels like a rite of passage to get through the bad writing and long drawn out meanderings, and it’s controversial. Then you realize she’s just an asshole…

      I listened to Fountainhead audiobook and from the very start, I knew I was going to fucking hate this Roarke fella. What an absolute wanker.
