People tell me I just don't get Godot, but I've read it 3 separate times already followed by college level discussions with the book in class.   I know it like the back of my hand and I still think its freaking ridiculous.

Yeah, I've heard that shit, too. Whenever I tell someone that I dislike one of their favorite books, I usually hear "Oh, well you just don't get it!" in response.

Cat's Eye - Margaret Atwood
The Scarlet Letter - Hawthorne
Thoreau/Emerson (and the whole transcendentalist/deist chapter we did)
franklin/thomas paine's common sense
Canterbury Tales
Plato's writings about the shadows on the cave wall (Plato's.. what! can't rememer its actual title.. THE ALLEGORY OF THE CAVE - Plato's Republic)
The Inferno
whatever faulkner we read
james joyce's dirty letters to his wife/girlfriend nora - they're all about anal sex and what he's going to do to her when they meet again (it wasn't assigned but i think it fits)
lord of the flies
no exit
othello

BLEGH:

Oh man, I severely dislike it when someone gives me that crap. Unfortunately it's really prevalent at college. I don't know how to stop it.
