    I read "call me Ishmael", and stopped. I then looked at the amount of text. And was in shock.

    What IS the point?!

    A few stumble across something, pass the urls on to friends, on forums, chatrooms, etc...
    I don't think most people come across a lot of stuff like this when just surfing ebay.


    But yeah... this description is insane.

    I liked this part...

    Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people's hats off...

    Probably because I stopped reading after it. So like to me, it was done. And sometimes the ending is always the best. Cuz then you can go, hell yea, its over!... Like bad sex.

    I think so, probably,

    [URL=http://]http://www.melville.org/hmmoby.htm[/URL]
    (you need to scroll down for the excert)
    the first paragraph is the same! I'm only guessing that is the whole book.

    n.b i only know this because the first line was featured in the tv show Ed, which Channel 4 used to show in the morning.

    One's with pule in the title are usually piss takes.

    Did anyone actually read all of that before commenting on this? If you did, please visit your GP and never come back.
