= Fight Club!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! = = = = = = = ='1st Round Questions for Fight Club=

1. Do you think that therapy would help the main character?

Yes, because he really needs to calm down and figure out his life.

2. Why do you think Tyler and the main character became friends so fast?

We think they became friends so fast because instead of Tyler offering to be friends with him, he practically forced him.

3. How did Tyler come up with the idea of Fight Club?

4. Do you think that that the main character thought that Tyler was crazy when he told him about his idea of Fight Club?

5. Do you think that the main character is friends with Tyler or scared of him? Explain Why.

Scared of him, because Tyler is supposedly big and intimidating.

1. Why do you think the narrator won’t cry in front of Marla even if means not sleeping?

Because he likes her a lot and wants to see her.

2. At the beginning what are your ideas about Project Mayhan and the incident going on the roof. I think the incident on the roof is that the main character is going to be killed and knows he will come back to life in some way. 3. How come the narrator is so miserable with his life that he wants to die and thinks about all the ways he could, and wishes they could happen to him? I think the narratator is so misrable because he has not found a away to get all of his fellings out i think fight club will help him. We think that he is so miserable with life because he has nothing to live and nobody cares about him or what he does. 4. What is the narrator’s occupation and how do you know? 5. Do you think a gas leak was the cause for the explosion of the narrators condo or was it foul play? WHY? I think it was foul play because the evidence did not seem like it was from a gas leak.

On Friday, my group and I had a good discussion for our first book club. We had some good snacks and my group members brought up some interesting points about the story. Cory had job A and brought in pretzels and potato sticks for us to snack on. Robert had job B and kept or group on task. Sam and Scott both had job D, which gave us an extra 5 questions to discuss. We started off with our snack and after we began to work. One of the first questions was whether or not the main character should go to therapy. Sam brought up a good point that the main character needs therapy because he is really struggling to remain calm. We decided to make Sam’s response the one we would use to answer the question on our wiki. Another question was if we thought the main character was intimidated by his friend Tyler. Scott made a good point that Tyler is supposedly big and strong which could make him intimidating to the main character. We decided to put that down as our answer for our wiki. The one question that brought up a lot of discussion was why the main character was so miserable with his life and why he didn’t have the will to live anymore. Our final answer came down to the fact that no one cares what he does or how he feels. Also the main character couldn’t express his feelings to people and felt alone.

=Round 2=

1. Do you think people are beginning to become suspected in fight club or why so many people are bruised? No, because it is a very private thing and Tyler and the narrator do a great job of ensuring the secrecy of fight club.

2. Is fight club too dangerous to have in real life? Yes, it could corrupt the streets because of all the fighting. It would cause chaos because all everyone would want to do is fight.

3. How and why do you think the narrators apartment was blown up while he was away? We think it may have been Tyler because he shows the narrator how to make bombs.

4. How do you think the narrator will deal with Tyler and Marla having a lot of sex? He will probably be really upset and it could possibly ruin their friendship.

5. What is the narrators real name? They have yet to tell you.

6. Why do you believe the narrator is still having trouble with his insomnia? No i believe since fight club started most of his insomnia has gone away,

7. Do you think the narrator should keep going to his cancer group? Why or why not? No because it is morally wrong and now that he has fight club his insomnia is better.

On Friday, my group and I had a good discussion for our first book club. Robert was Job A and brought in Iced tea and cookies. It was a perfect snack for our group and after that we went to work. First, we started out questions. Sam and Cory were job D and together we had 10 questions. We decided as a group that we should only put our 7 best to give the questions more value. In question 7, "Do you think the narrator should keep going to his cancer group? Why or why not?", James had a good answer and said that it is morally wrong an since he has fight club now there is no point going anymore. Also, James did a great job as discussion leader keeping us focused and on track. We really wouldn't have got to answer all the questions if it wasn't for him. Overall, I really think that our discussion group worked and really got a lot out of it.

1.Why did the main character have to start living with Tyler? the main charcters house blows up and also tyler is the main character in the end 2.Why does his bag always get stopped at airports? his bag always gets stopped because of his vibrating sshaver and sometimes other thing that vibrate 3.Why d they explain football and fight club in the way that they did They explained it this way because they were making an analgy 4.What are they doing with the soap? Why were they doing it the soab can be used as a bobmb also they sale it 5. how does big bob find out about fight club Bob finds out about fight club because someone broke the first rule of fight club
 * Round three**

This week our group discussed many new topics of the book. We established that fight club was a way for men to escape from their own lives. We also discussed project Mayhem, and made educated guesses about what was going to happen. However, we didn't quite figure out what was happening with the transition from the Fight Club itself to Project Mayhem. Although James didn't bring in a king's feast he managed to bring in a good enough snack to keep us energized through the period

The mood of our book so far is depression. We thinks this because all the main character ever talks about is how he hates this and how he hates that. The main character look at the glass half empty and not half full and is just a very negative person. The overriding emotion in the book or the most emotional part is when the main character starts going to the Testicular Cancer Support groups. We thought that this was the most emotional part because this where the main character really lets all his pains and emotions go and releases it all.

Chuck Palahniuk expresses very mysterious yet comical dialouge. He uses great imagery by expressing Tyler Durden as the narrators alter ego, as well as his only way out of insomnia, even though they are similar many ways. Another image he uses is the fight club itself. He makes fight club look like a group of brothers, where they can blow off steem and relieve stress. He does this to enhance interest and keep you thinking outside the box.
 * Round Four

This week we discussed pages 101-155. James made a good point about the narrator and Marla possibly being lovers. To counter that though, Scott came up with a point that Tyler and Marla staying together until the end of the books. We also discussed the idea of Mayhem, the terrorist group made to cause chaos throughout the city. Scott brought some tasty treats and refreshments that included tostitos scoops and capri sun.

Do you think that Marla actually cares about the main character when there is a possibility that he will die.

Do you think that the main character would still attempt to kill himself if Tyler didn’t exist.
