Illiteracy
At my 'Harlem To Hollywood' party [the Walk of Fame bash], the guests … played croquet on the lawn.
…
I liked the idea of croquet because it's a very Gatsby-type activity and I take pride in being a Gatsby figure.
Oh, you take pride in being a sad bastard who longs for real love and surrounds himself with drunk leeches who won't even come to his funeral when he's dead? We figured as much, but thanks for finally confirming our assumptions.

HA!
I see where he's coming from. That's why I like to drink mojitos. It's a Hemingway type of drink and I take pride in being a Hemingway figure.
I know, right? Killing hookers with chainsaws is a very Patrick Bateman-type activity and I take pride in being a Patrick Bateman figure.
I always saw you as a Heineken type hag JuJu…bottles of course because glass is class.
I doubt that moron has ever read a book, let alone The Great Gatsby.
What a fucking douchbag.
People should be more like us. We're out there living our dreams. Being very important figures and doing figure specific type activities.
I believe Hemmingway liked a bottle of Heineken too….
i love you Cord. Can you come talk crazy to my manager for me?
$100 says that he means he likes to drink in the afternoon and wear white suits.
Well, that was back when I was all into Billy Dee Williams and drinking the Colt 45 after watching Lady Sings The Blues. But I've moved on since reading A Moveable Feast. My apologies to Lando Callrissian.
You know Farah, that was my first thought. Diddy read the Great Gatsby?
Billy, I have a feeling Ernest Hemingway never met a drink he didn't like.
Well, Diddy does have tons of new money, which he grotesquely flashes around for attention in the form of jewels and classless parties, so he's got that down. I wonder if he has a whole closet full of beautiful shirts that I could weep into.
Sure, Stephanie. That's an appropriate Gatsby type activity.
ARGH! F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote The Great Gatsby, not Hemingway!
and Hemingway's drink was whiskey, supposedly he is credited with inventing the "Papa Doble" which is like a daiquiri with rum, lime and grapefruit juice. Not a mojito. Chelsea, Tom Wolfe wears a white suit as a nod to Mark Twain, not Fitzgerald or Hemingway.
would it be better if he said he liked "Moby Dick"
I think they know it was Fitzgerald; Juju simply prefers Hemingway. Me, I'm more of a Steinbeck, anyway.
Poo, can I be your Paul Allen?
Ummmmm, yeah, I know that. By the way, hemingway did drink mojitos. He loved them as a matter of fact. Drank them when he was in cuba. Ps, I never said Hemingway wrote it douchey mcdoucherson. Just joking that I too enjoy doing activites much like my sad hero.
Do you also think poo believes Patrick Batemen was in the Great Gatsby. Bite me.
See, if the manbearpig could get it why not the beachedwhale? Lack of oxygen?
Hemingway also liked to drink with a concussion. Which explains the brain damage toward the end of his life. I'd avoid emulating that behavior.
Well, that and the Jewhate.
A bad drunk makes a good jewhater…
Any famous authors drink Bud Light? No?….just rednecks? Damn.
And probably shooting myself in the head. I'm gonna take that off my list too. My lists keeps getting shorter.
Madison, i think Jeff foxworthy has a book out. He's semi famous. Did you also know that Bud light now has lime in it? True story and I love it. But I prefer the michelob ultra lime and cactus. 95 calories and only 2.5 carbs. you can get drunk and cut out the beer bloat.
It's what Ernest would have wanted.
I should know because I have often hated myself…for being a bad drunk. Funnily enough, that never happens when I've been drinking Heineken…..and I have never been pissed drunk on Bud Light so I would not know.
Patrick Bateman was the one who drove the car that ran over Mildred and killed her, right?
Or am I just confused again?
Time to play with my fingernail clipping collection again, I guess.
I know I'm arrived late… but, umm, there's a beached whale in the room. Apparently making a complete ass out of themselves.
I still think we'd have fun. I'm a happy drunk so you can try and beat everyone up and I'll smooth things over. I don't mind the bud but it makes me gassy. I'm sure you cared to know that.
The gas gets rid of the bloat.
juJu …your idea of smoothing things over is funny…. keeping the peace by farting in peoples faces is so smooth it stinks. I know we would have fun.
It's just how I roll Billy. I could do an ad for Bud. Less filling more farts.
Hey Juju I'm not sure if I am correctly getting your comment? What part of my comment did you mean?
The crying in the shirts part. It's very Daisy of you.
Wow, for someone who seems to pride him/herself on knowledge of literaty figures, beachedwhale sure doesn't know how to read.
That's what I thought you meant. Oh, and I've got some moijitos here.. want one?
Anyways… almost all the greatest writers liked to get their drink on. Look it up!
Very funny!
you are all a lost generation.
talkin' bout my generation.
ARGH!!
Such exasperation. Juju - ii think he was personally pained by your comment.
i get it dude. Im personally pained by his inability to follow simple conversation.
We've not officially met Stephanie. But I never say no to mojitos.
Let's walk down memory lane, shall we?
Hemmingway DID love the mojitos. I just couldn't make them fast enough. That's why he eventually dumped me.
F.Scott Fitzgerald, well he stoled all of that mess that he wrote. I'll let you guess from who. I dumped him.
John Steinbeck. Ahhhh. He was good in bed. I dumped him after he said my legs reminded him of the foothills in the Salinas Valley. He put that in one of his books, I think.
How can you continue to have sex with a man that compares your thick legs with rolling foothills?
I was not wrong to move on.
No, Qc. You did the right thing. That's no way to live. There can only be one drunk in the relationship. You're such a giver. That's why I love you so.
But tell me. Did Hemingway prefer his mint leaves crushed or whole? I want to make sure I'm getting it just right.
But, QC, what about all the great (drunken) British and French with Spanish heritage/Algerian authors. I know you must have some great stories about Camus. He did write "The Great Gatsby" didn't he?
And who the heck is this F. Scott bloke? I don't anyone ever heard of 'em. Robert Redford does ring a bell though…
Yes, Robert Redford wrote many of todays great classics. Did you happen to catch The Way We Were?
Robert Redford IS a classic.
Juju, he like them crushed. As he said to me at the beginning, "Crush them, just like I do to the ladies hearts." OOooooh what a man he was.
If I would have had more time and energy, BB&B, I could have expanded my literary/sexual horizons. As it was, I spent too long on the things that didn't work out. *Sigh* No regrets, though. I only had this one life to live.
It's hard to work your way around all the continents. Lord knows I've tried. I did get all the way to Peru though. There's no shame in calling it quits, Qc.
Thank you, jujubees. I liken it to trying to hit every ride at Disneyland in two days. That is a set up for disappointment.
No one mentioned Robert Louis Stevenson.
Let me say, he liked to cry and get poetic, even if you weren't quite finished.
That can get under a lady's skin, after a while.
It is good to know how to make the mojitos for Hemmingway at this point.
Oh, I saw that we brought up Mark Twain in our comments.
Let me tell you, that he wan't very deep.
I marked Samuel in about two inches.
He did love that fried catfish though. Cornmeal batter.
I imagine that Twain was probably a poist coital cryer and kind of whiny. I would have dropped his ass in the Mississippi river.
