This book changed my lifeThe Goat writes, "Some books have made a huge impact on my life." It's true. It wasn't until the b3ta mods read the Flashman novels that we changed from mild-mannered computer operators into heavily-whiskered copulators, poltroons and all round bastards in a well-known cavalry regiment.
What books have changed the way you think, the way you live, or just gave you a rollicking good time?
Friendly hint: A bit of background rather than just a bunch of book titles would make your stories more readable

*wearily*Okay, so you look at different books and experiments and you pick the bits you think are right and you build yourself a 'philosophy'. You can't prove it though; I think that's why people are kneejerkingly yelling "Noooooo".
Essentially, you refer to "misguided people that can't be bothered to think for themselves" but you don't show any evidence of how your thinking is any better/superior than theirs. How is your thinking better than the received wisdom you refer to? Does the mere act of thinking make you better, even if what you think is crap, purely because you did something more active than read it?
