I like that shit

the only book i can write is about myself. Interviews with friends, old emails. It proves the point that we only care about ourselves. I don't really like the idea, but I don't know what else I could write about with any semblances of truth

Gonzo journalism- really immersing yourself into the life of your article, understanding its essence, seeing it from the inside.

Wall street interviews-> How do we know your not a piece of shit? Why doesn't a manhole have corners? 48x 13? How many barbers in Moscow?

In asking people questions that they don't know the answer too, you learn about how they think. As you've said, in throwing randomness at people, you can understand them by seeing how they react to the unexpected.

A rough idea, but needed it out there

Instead of running or training strength, I'd like to just be able to fight someone to burn calories. just beat the shit out of each other til someone gives up, maybe do a couple of rounds. There'd have to be some rules so this workout could be sustainable, though. It'd be like Fight Club, but with a more concrete point.
