Starting something you couldn't finish
Finnbar says: I used to know a guy who tattooed LOVE across his left knuckles, but didn't tattoo HATE on the other knuckles because he was right-handed and realised he couldn't finish. Ever run out of skills or inspiration halfway through a job?

I liked it.
Against The Day, now that's a Pynchon book I can't finish. Gravity's Rainbow, I started once, then restarted and finished it. It's actually a pretty funny book to read, but I wouldn't get too hung up on the plot if I were trying to get through it. It's there, but it's much easier to read if you just go with it, and laugh at the jokes. You can make the connections later on to fill in the plot if you want, but it's kind of a crazy surreal story.
