I give you a worksheet I created which is my personal MLM Online Success Step-By-Step 'Blueprint' that gives you the exact 1-2-3 step-by-step checklist I use to help me generate free leads and traffic using MySpace, YouTube, and many other little-known Web 2.0 technologies. (There's no guess work here... it's time-tested and proven to work every single time. If you follow this easy-to-follow 1-2-3 step-by-step 'To-Do' list exactly as I have laid it out without making any alterations, you could be getting free leads and traffic on demand for your business in as little as 48-hours depending on how fast you can go through the checklist and get things done.) It's based on a proven scientific mathematical formula that I learned from some of the biggest players in the marketing world. And like I said earlier, it's scientific, it's mathematical, and it's proven the test of time. Just like how 1+1=2... well, if you follow my proprietary MLM Gold Mine treasure map without any deviation... the predictable outcome on the other side of the formula is free leads and traffic chasing you and begging you to tell them more about your opportunity. • You get access to the *PRIVATE* MLM Gold Mine 'Members Only' training calls that I hold twice a month where I keep you up-to-date with the latest trends, secrets, tactics, and strategies that I learned from talking to my 'INNER CIRCLE' of the top internet marketers in the world. Sometimes I'll come back from a $10k dollar seminar with some fresh new ideas that haven't been shared anywhere else except at the bar after-hours when talking to one of my internet guru friends. Other times, my internet marketing buddies will send me 'ADVANCED' copies of their newest high-ticket courses asking me for their opinions or to be a case study... and then I'll share my results with you before anyone else even gets access to these advanced strategies. Just know that I'm very well-connected when it comes to the internet marketing world... and that means when I come across a new tactic or strategy that's working like gang-busters for some of my internet marketing buddies... if you join in on these *EXCLUSIVE* 'Members-Only' MLM Gold Mine training calls, you'll hear about these new strategies before anyone else... and that way you can get a jump-start and capitalize on the latest trends in the marketplace before anyone else. Plus, everyone once in a while I'll invite some of my mentors, some of my top-earning internet buddies, and several other special MLM guest speakers, internet marketing experts, network marketing leaders, etc... who will come in and give you 'PRIVATE' training sessions on various different marketing strategies that make them 6 and 7 figures a year for their own businesses. You will not get access to these guys like this anywhere else... but because of my close relationships with these guys and gals... you'll get access to them as a full 'Member' of our MLM Gold Mine Leadership Training & Development system. To here a 'sample' of one of our MLM Gold Mine training calls, go here: http://www.MLMGoldMine.com/special • You get access to the *PRIVATE* MLM Gold Mine Online 'Members Area' which has all of my training calls archived so that you can go back and listen to them online, or if you'd prefer... you can download the MP3 file of the training calls and load them into your iPod so you can listen to the training while you go for a walk or while you work-out over at the gym. The *EXCLUSIVE* MLM Gold Mine 'Members Area' also has many different 'advanced' video trainings covering many different aspects of how to get free leads and traffic using the various different Web 2.0 technologies available. • Plus, you'll get access to fast-start checklists, MySpace + YouTube beginners cheat sheets, advanced MySpace blueprints, YouTube video case studies ebook, the anatomy of how to create videos that hypnotize your prospects and get them to take the action you are looking for, and much, much, more. You'll be able to find everything you need to help you *ATTRACT* highly-qualified, super-responsive, free leads and traffic for your business using my MLM Gold Mine system in the *PRIVATE* 'Members-Only' training area. • You get access to our MLM Gold Mine *OHANA* 'Mastermind' team. If you want to network with pioneer doers, sharp marketers, *SERIOUS* business-builders, and people who are up to *BIG* things with their business... there's no better place to network with other successful like-minded entrepreneurs who are also using my MLM Gold Mine system. Because think about it... each of these 'Members' were only accepted by *PRIVATE* invitation, or they had to fill-out an application and be 'APPROVED' before they could become a member of this 'MASTERMIND' group. And we are very 'SELECTIVE' on who we allow to 'let-in' to our MLM Gold Mine 'INNER CIRCLE'... because we don't just want anybody to be a part of this 'ELITE' group of ambitious entrepreneurs. We are only looking for the best-of-the-best, the sharpest minds, or people who truly have that burning-desire for success. And not only are they 'INVITES ONLY'... or they had to pass our 'application' process before being accepted, but they also had to come up with $1,997.00 dollars to be a part of this MLM Gold Mine Mastermind Group as well. The high-ticket price tag alone already weeds-out and scares away most wannabe entrepreneurs who are negative thinkers, whiners, complainers, and don't care much about success. Because of the $1,997.00 dollar price tag to apply... you'll only find *SERIOUS* business builders. And these are the best people to network with, bounce ideas with, they are successful, they are action-takers, pioneer doers, innovators, and if you want to take your business to the next level... the people of this *EXCLUSIVE* Mastermind Group can help you do it. • You'll get access to my private "MILLION DOLLAR" Rolodex of programmers, web designers, copywriters, people who are my 'GO-TO' guys... the guys who I turn to whenever I need something done. These are people that have taken me years and years to build relationships with... and you can get access to them as a 'Member' of my MLM Gold Mine system so they can help you build your business as well. Also, as an extra bonus... I'll give you introductions to some of my best 'joint venture' partners. Guys with 1,000's and 1,000's of people on their mailing lists. Guys with massive *INFLUENCE*. Now I can't guarantee that they'll be willing to do any joint ventures with you, but I'll give you a simple *INTRODUCTION* and let you reference my name... but from there, it's up to you to build a relationship with them. And based on your own relationship that you establish with them, that will determine whether or not they'd be willing to do a joint venture with you for whatever you're up to. But at least I'll give you a way to get in the door which is sometime that hardest thing to do. You can only get an introduction to my joint venture partner as a member of my MLM Gold Mine system. • You'll get one 15-minute, private 'one-on-one' tele-consulting call with me, every other month. These are *EMERGENCY 911* consulting calls if something terribly wrong were to happen to your business (or even just your life) and you need attention right away. I will give you personal one-on-one coaching, mentoring, and support you need to get through whatever problem you come across with your business (or your life). That's what I'm here for. • You get special private invitations to join our team at any of my MLM Gold Mine 'Mastermind' meetings facilitated by me (Dennis Karganilla) which will be held on different various dates each year. At least one will be held in Las Vegas, another meeting will be held in Hawaii, one will be held in Europe, and another one in Australia. • Each "Mastermind" meeting will include a full day to hang-out with me and some of the other MLM Gold Mine members, and it will include a brain-storming session, hot-seats, and even a nice dinner paid by me as well. We also plan to have *OPTIONAL* side 'business adventure' trips for our MLM Gold Mine Members as well which could include anything from 'Bungee Jumping', to 'White Water Rafting', to watching a "LAKERS Game", or even "Surfing Lessons on the beaches of Hawaii." Remember... one of my core beliefs is that your business should be something that you truly enjoy and it should also be fun as well. And that's why we will be having these optional side 'business adventure' trips wherever we end up meeting with the rest of the MLM Gold Mine crew. • You also get access to participate in our *OPTIONAL* MLM Gold Mine 1-Up Power-Up Resellers Program. Once you become a *QUALIFIED* Reseller... you can earn a $1,500.00 dollar profit for every member you refer to the MLM Gold Mine system that is accepted and pays the full $1,997.00. You collect all the money up-front, keep your $1,500.00 dollar profit... then forward our company the other $497.00 and we deliver the service to your customer for you. To get more details and discover how it all works, go here: http://www.MLMGoldMine.com/agreement • Membership will be limited to small select 'MIX' of MLM / Direct Sales / Internet Entrepreneurs. Because we are not looking to accept everybody and only want to work with people who are highly-motivated, success-minded, have an entrepreneurial spirit, and enjoy a challenge... that is the reason why we are requiring an application to be submitted and reviewed before approval and acceptance into the MLM Gold Mine Leadership Training & Development System. MEMBERSHIP CRITERIA • Be willing to share Your Successes, Your Victories, Your Failures, Your Frustrations, and Your Problems on the *LIVE* training / coaching calls, the Private 'MEMBERS-ONLY' MySpace profile, our exclusive MLM Gold Mine MySpace forum, and our live 'in-person' MLM Gold Mine 'Mastermind' Meetings. This is important so that all of our members can learn from all of the other members of the group. But not just what works... but also what doesn't work and what caused you to fall flat on your face. And don't be afraid to be embarrassed to share either... because if you know me... I failed for years and years and years before I finally hit it big. One of my mentors taught me that failing is inevitable... so you might as well fail forward as fast as you can and as much as you can in the shortest amount of time possible... that way you can get a lot of the failure out of the way very quickly... and then move forward towards achieving success much sooner! • Be willing to present your greatest successes as a video which we can post-up on our MLM Gold Mine sales page... and also be willing to share your successful experiences on our opportunity calls and training calls as well. • Attend 'at least' one of the two monthly training / coaching calls every month. • Have an honest desire to grow your business to 'at least' $1,000,000.00+ gross. • Maintain *CONFIDENTIALITY* of all sensitive information discussed at our private 'Members-Only' MLM Gold Mine Training / Coaching calls and our exclusive 'Inner Circle' 'In-Person' Mastermind meetings as well. • 12-Month Commitment to work through all of the different exercises recommended as part of the MLM Gold Mine Leadership Training & Development System. • You must *QUALIFY* before you will can be *APPROVED* to be accepted as a full member of the MLM Gold Mine System. • You must also agree to all of the terms and conditions found on the following web pages here: http://www.MLMGoldMine.com/agreement COST: $1997 Registers You To Receive Lifetime Benefits of Our MLM Gold Mine Membership Lifetime Subscription (Payment Must Be Submitted and Paid-In-Full To Your 'Authorized MLM Gold Mine Reseller' Along With Your Completed Application.) We are committed to personally reading each and everyone's story in this section because we really want to get to know who you are before we can determine whether or not you would be a good fit for our MLM Gold Mine Leadership Training & Development System. So tell me (and the rest of our MLM Gold Mine Mastermind team)... tell us more about yourself on this application. You want to include as much as you see fit that would allow us to get to know who you are, what your situation is, and anything else that can help us determine whether or not we have a match between what we are looking for... and what you have to offer. There are 3 main questions I would like you to answer... #1) Who are you... and what is it that you really want to accomplish in life? #2) What exactly *ATTRACTED* you about MLM Gold Mine? Why are you here? #3) What are your *STRENGTHS*... and what can you bring to the table that could benefit or contribute to all of us here at the MLM Gold Mine family? (For question #3, just think of any special talents, gifts, or things that you are really good at... or what are some of the things that are super easy for you... that might be hard for others?) By answering this 3rd question in detail... this will allow all of us to see what your strengths are... and that way if anyone one our Mastermind team has a 'weakness' in that area... perhaps we could connect you 2 together and 'barter' or exchange services so you can help each other out and we all can move our businesses forward. This 3rd question is great for networking or teaming-up with other people. For instance, let's say you may have a weakness like building websites... but if someone else on our team is really good at building websites and could do it on the fly with their eyes closed and both hands tied behind their backs... then this could potentially lead to many business partnership with other members who are not-so-good at building their own website. We could connect the 2 of you... and you guys can talk further about the possibility of exchanging services to help each other out. (This is just an example... but I think you get the point.) Now what you are going to find below is the actual questions I would like you to answer... then you're going to find several lines underneath the question to give you space to answer the question. If you need more lines, feel free to take out an extra blank sheet of paper and continue your answer to the question. After the lines underneath the question... you're going to see a sample of how I would answer that question myself. To give you some ideas, or leave you with a better sense of direction on how I would personally answer those questions. Remember... if you need more space, simply attach an additional sheet to this application and continue to write as much as necessary. Remember, we are committed to reading each and every application we receive... so be as specific and as detailed as possible... Because you may not realize this yet... but your answers to the questions on this application will actually help save you time when you get to the 6th Step of our proprietary MLM Gold Mine proven online success formula. Not only will this help your creative juices start flowing for creating your own compelling story for marketing purposes... but you could also use some of the ideas you write down here and use it for crafting your own MySpace profile using our *exclusive* 6-Step Formula for creating a powerful compelling story that actually brings you free red-hot leads chasing you... instead of you chasing them! So if you're ready to get started... here you go: #1) Who are you... and what is it that you really want to accomplish in life? (Don't forget to include what you want to accomplish with your business over the next up-coming 12-months.) HERE'S HOW I WOULD ANSWER THIS QUESTION #1... For me, my name is Dennis Karganilla. I'm about to turn 29-years-old on April 8th... and I have a *PASSION* for coaching and training others (especially when it comes to anyone who is 'entrepreneurial' and is looking to build a successful business online.) You see... last year, I realized how lucky and truly blessed I am to be able to really *EXPERIENCE* what it means to "Live A Life You Actually Love!" I got to travel all over the world from the beer halls of Munich, Germany... To taking yodeling lessons at the tops of the Swiss Alps... to riding on a gondola ride through the canals of Venice... partying it up in the streets of Barcelona, Spain... diving off the cliffs in the north shores of Hawaii... to rafting through the waters of the beautiful Philippine Islands. I could go on and on, but I think you get the point... life was just *GOOD*. But, after a while... I kind of got tired and *BORED* of just hangin' around in all of these different exotic vacation spots around the world... I wanted more *EXCITEMENT*... I want to do something *WORTHWHILE* and something that would actually *MAKE A POSITIVE DIFFERENCE* in the world... and so that's why in 2007... I made the commitment to give back. I committed to returning the favor to other people who have not yet had the good fortune of experiencing what it really means to live a life that you actually love. And that's why I started MLM Gold Mine. I made the commitment to create a *SAFE* place for entrepreneurs to hang-out, learn, network, and share their experiences with others so that we all could go out and create successful businesses online together. Because what a lot of super-successful people tend to find out more often than not is... it sometimes can get a little *LONELY* at the top. But the good news is... it doesn't have to be that way (That's why even if we're all in various different businesses... we can team-up *TOGETHER* and create success and wealth as a *TEAM* committed to *PROSPERITY* for all.) I truly want to provide whatever it is I can that will lead you to experience the same intensive rush of joy and peace in your life... the kind of joy, peace, and happiness that I am so lucky and blessed to have in my life right now. So my mission now has taken a complete turn. And my vision now is to touch, move, and inspire 1 *MILLION* entrepreneurs... and to *EMPOWER*, *TRAIN*, and *DEVELOP* 1 *MILLION* new leaders... from ordinary average Joe's just like me... and giving them a way to build confidence in themselves... and providing an access way to becoming the *LEADER* that they didn't even know existed inside of them. It's all about peace, love, joy, and happiness. It's all about making a positive difference in the world. (And there's nothing wrong with making a *TON* of money in the process as well! *wink*) The last other *HUGE* difference that makes my MLM Gold Mine system distinct from anything else out there in the whole entire internet is... my system is the 1st and *ONLY* system that actually "BRIDGES" the "Generational Gap". I'm the 1st people a lot of the younger and newer entrepreneurs who are in their 20's and 30's... I've created the first system ever that can actually relate to them. No other system out there can bridge the generational gap like my MLM Gold Mine system. I'm the 1st and the only one existent today. Finally, the 20's and 30's can drop out of the 'Old-School'... and join the 'New School'. Finally, someone was able to take the fundamental proven time-tested business principles that have worked for ages... and has now presented it in a medium and language that the 'New School Generation' can actually relate to and understand. And that's what sets my MLM Gold Mine system apart from anything else out there on the internet. Okay, so enough about me... now it's your turn. What is it that you really want to accomplish in life? What's your purpose? What's your vision? And why are you here? #2) What exactly *ATTRACTED* you about MLM Gold Mine? Why are you here? What do you want to get out of your involvement with our Leadership Training & Development System? HERE'S HOW I WOULD ANSWER THIS QUESTION #2... For me, MLM Gold Mine came about almost by complete accident. One of my personal goals was to 'connect' with other like-minded people who were my age. People who I could easily relate to. People who had similar interests as me. I call these people the 'NEO-Entrepreneurs'. Neo = New. And I borrowed the name 'NEO' from the main character of the movie 'The Matrix'. Because I grew up watching that stuff. I grew up playing Nintendo. I grew up with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The internet was a part of my life while growing up. The 'Neo-Entrepreneurs' grew up using AIM (AOL instant messenger). We grew up and adapted the latest technologies (including cell phones, text messages, MySpace, and YouTube)... and all of these new technologies were simply just an everyday part of our lives. (If you grew up with this technology, know what "Saved By The Bell" is, and you've seen the movie "Napoleon Dynamite"... then you are a *TRUE* "Neo Entrepreneur".) I wanted to reach that market and really *EMPOWER* them and *INSPIRE* them with a message that showed them that you really can "Live The Life of Your Dreams" by following your *PASSIONS*. A lot of people give up on that... and it's just sad for me to see such wonderful, gifted, and talented people give up on their dreams and passions just to work in a job you hate... and working under B.O.S.S. that you can barely stand... (when spell B.O.S.S. backwards, it actually means he/she is a "Double S.O.B."! okay, just playin' around... gotta have some fun right?) So that's one of the main reasons why I originally started MLM Gold Mine... is because I wanted to reach out to the 'Neo-Entrepreneurs. But soon after I started to launch this stuff with MySpace and all the videos on YouTube... I soon found out that a whole lot of other people wanted to learn this same stuff too. A lot of older 'cats' wanted 'IN' on this info too... because even though they didn't fit into the age bracket I was looking to reach... many of them told me they still feel like the are only "30-years-old in heart". And so even if you're age is a bit older... but you feel like you're in your 20's or 30's at heart... and you're just totally *FASCINATED* by all of these new cutting-edge breakthrough Web 2.0 technology stuff... then you too also qualify to fit in the category of what I call being a 'NEO-ENTREPRENEUR'. So it evolved... and evolved... and evolved some more... and now MLM Gold Mine is where it is today. It's become a *COMMUNITY* of like-minded entrepreneurs. It's become a *FAMILY* of bright, ambitious, passionate people who are all focused on a single goal of building a successful business online... becoming leaders, making a positive difference in the world... and making a *BOAT-LOAD* of money too in the process!! That's why I started the MLM Gold Mine Leadership Training & Development System. And that's why it's now taken an entirely whole new life of it's own. So tell me more about what it was that *ATTRACTED* you to my MLM Gold Mine System... and what exactly is it that you are looking to get out of this. Please be as specific as possible. Tell me why you are here. Because based on what you answer with this question... that will give me a better sense of what me and my time would have to bring to the table to assist you in making this happen. So don't take this one lightly. Really get down in writing what it is you want to accomplish right here. #3) What are your *STRENGTHS*... and what can you bring to the table that could benefit or contribute to all of us here at the MLM Gold Mine family? (Why do you feel you're a good candidate for the MLM Gold Mine Leadership Training & Development System? And why should we choose you over other applicants?) HERE'S HOW I WOULD ANSWER THIS QUESTION #3... For me, my strengths are the 'know-how'. Because like I've told you before... I go to a lot of internet marketing seminars. And some of my buddies are the top marketers in the world when it comes to making money online. So I usually get access to the 'inside-scoop' before anyone else. And that's something I can pass-on to you guys who are part of our MLM Gold Mine family. Another one of my strengths is coaching and mentoring. I'm very good at working with people and pointing out things that they might not have seen in themselves. Just like Phil Jackson used to coach Michael Jordan in basketball... even sometimes the best-of-thebest players in any industry still get caught up in their own world and may overlook such obvious things which could make a positive impact on their results. And that's why Michael Jordan (perhaps one of the greatest basketball players of all time)... even he still had a coach to point out at times things the Jordan could not see for himself. Let me be your coach. Let me be your mentor. Let me point out things to you that you may not be able to see on your own. Let me be there for you not only as support to assist you with your business... but also support to assist you in your life as well. Those are my 2 main strengths... and that's what I bring to the table. So tell me what your strengths are? Are you good at making websites? Are you good at talking to people? Are you just a good student? Do you have experience mentoring, coaching, and training other people? Maybe your area of strength is that you're a fast learner. Or perhaps whenever someone tells you to do something you always are able to get things done with speed and velocity. Just tell me more about what you consider to be your strengths and what you can bring to the table. That way if we have someone who has a super-hard time with HTML for websites... but you know how to do HTML like the back of your hand... perhaps we can pair you guys up so you can work together and exchange services. Remember... it's all about family here... wherever one person is weak in the family... I'm sure we could find someone else on the team who has that strength. And that way, we could put you 2 in contact so you two can possibly talk further about bartering services, or helping each other out for a fee, or however you wish to work it out. So you see... This is just an example of how I would introduce myself, and what I would say when I answer the 3 questions above. I encourage you to do the same thing as well. And remember... the 3rd question is *HUGE* because this will allow the rest of the family to see what you are good at... and then if you get accepted as a 'Member' of our system... then we can better 'team-you-up' with a *RUNNING BUDDY* based on your strengths and weaknesses... and that way you can help each other out, bounce ideas back and forth... and work with each other to help one another move your businesses forward.I understand that one of the biggest benefits I'm going to get from your MLM Gold Mine Leadership Training & Development System is something called "OHANA". Where 'Ohana' means family... and that means "Nobody Gets Left Behind!"my space marketing music video marketing mlm scams quickstar mlm mlm leads recipes gold mine mortgage mlm mlm scam usana mlm mlm

The plot is based around an unnamed protagonist who struggles with his growing discomfort with consumerism and changes in the state of masculinity in American culture. In an attempt to overcome this, he creates an underground fighting club as a radical form of psychotherapy. It was made into a movie of the same name in 1999 by director David Fincher. The movie became a pop culture phenomenon. In the wake of the film's popularity, the novel has become a target of criticism, mainly for its explicit depictions of violence.

This led him to work on Fight Club, which he wrote as an attempt to disturb the publisher even more for rejecting him. Palahniuk wrote this story while working as a diesel mechanic for Freightliner. After initially publishing it as a short story (which became chapter 6 of the novel) in the compilation Pursuit of Happiness, Palahniuk expanded it into a full novel, which, contrary to what he expected, the publisher was willing to publish.[2] While the original, hardcover edition of the book received positive reviews and some awards, it had a short shelf life. Nevertheless, the book had made its way to Hollywood, where interest in adapting it to film was growing. It was eventually adapted in 1999 by screenwriter Jim Uhls and director David Fincher. The film was a box office disappointment (although it was #1 at the U.S. box office in its first weekend) and critical reaction was mostly favorable, but a cult following soon emerged as the DVD of the film was popular upon release. As a result of the film, the original hardcover edition became a collector's item.[3] This film is now widely considered to be a defining work and an uncompromising critique of humanity's loss of identity through mass consumerism. Two paperback rereleases of the novel, one in 1999 and the other in 2004 (the latter of which begins with an introduction by the author about the conception and popularity of both the novel and the movie), were later made. This success helped launch Palahniuk's career as a popular novelist, as well as establish a writing style that would appear in many of his future novels. Despite popular belief, Palahniuk was not inspired to write the novel by any actual fight club. The club itself was based on a series of fights that Palahniuk got into over previous years (most notably one that he got into during a camping trip).[4] Even though he has mentioned this in many interviews, Palahniuk is still often approached by fans wanting to know where their local fight club takes place. Palahniuk insists that there is no real, singular organization like the one in his book. He does admit however that some fans have mentioned to him that some fight clubs (albeit much smaller than the one in the novel) exist or previously existed (some having existed long before the novel was written). Also, in the introduction to the current edition of the novel, Palahniuk refers to a few of the many actual instances of mischief being carried out in the style of fight club, most notably, a "Waiter from one of London's two finest restaurants" alleging that he ejaculated into Margaret Thatcher's food on multiple occasions. Many other events in the novel were also based on events that Palahniuk himself had experienced. The support groups that the narrator attends are based on support groups to which the author brought terminally ill people as part of a volunteer job he did for a local hospital. Project Mayhem is loosely based on the Cacophony Society, of which Palahniuk is a member. Various events and characters are based on friends of the author. Other events came as a result of stories told to him by various people he had talked to.[5] This method of combining various stories from various people into novels has become a common way of writing novels for Palahniuk ever since. Outside of Palahniuk's professional and personal life, the novel's impact has been felt elsewhere. Several individuals in various locations of the United States (and possibly in other countries), ranging from teenagers to people in technical careers, have set up their own fight clubs based on the one mentioned in the novel.[6] Some of Tyler's on-the-job pranks (such as food tampering) have been repeated by fans of the book (although these same pranks existed well before the novel was published). Palahniuk eventually documented this phenomenon in his essay "Monkey Think, Monkey Do",[7] which was published in his book Stranger Than Fiction: True Stories, as well as in the introduction to the 2004 paperback edition of Fight Club. Other fans of the book have been inspired to non-anti-social activity as well; Palahniuk has claimed that fans tell him that they have been inspired to go back to college after reading the book.[2] Other than the film, a few other adaptations have been attempted. In 2004 Fight Club was in development as a musical, developed by Palahniuk, Fincher, and Trent Reznor.[8] Brad Pitt, who played the role of Tyler Durden in the film, expressed interest in being involved. A video game loosely based on the film was published by Vivendi Universal Games in 2004, receiving poor reviews from gaming critics (see Fight Club (video game)). [edit] Plot summary The book centers on a nameless narrator who hates his job and his life. The narrator works for a car company, also unnamed, organizing product recalls on defective models if, and only if, the cost of the recall is less than the cost of out-of-court settlements paid to relatives of the deceased (which parallels the 1970s story of the Ford Pinto's safety problems and recall). At the same time, he is becoming disenchanted with the "nesting instinct"[9] of consumerism that has absorbed his life, forcing him to define himself by the furniture, clothes, and other material things that he owns. This dissatisfaction, combined with his frequent business trips across multiple time zones, disturb him to the point that he suffers from chronic insomnia. At the recommendation of his physician (who does not consider his insomnia to be a serious ailment), the narrator goes to a support group for men with testicular cancer to "see what real suffering is like". After finding that crying at these support groups and listening to emotional outpourings from the suffering allows him to sleep at night, he becomes dependent on them. At the same time, he befriends a cancer victim named Bob. Although he does not really suffer from any of the ailments that the other attendants have, he is never caught being a "tourist" until he meets Marla Singer, a woman who also attends support groups for alternative reasons. Her presence reflects the narrator's "tourism", and only reminds him that he doesn't belong at the support groups. He begins to hate Marla for keeping him from crying, and therefore from sleeping. After a short confrontation, they begin going to separate support groups in order to avoid meeting again. Shortly before this incident, his life changes radically upon meeting Tyler Durden, a beach artist who works low-paying jobs at night in order to perform deviant behavior on the job. After his confrontation with Marla, the narrator's condo is destroyed by an explosion and he asks Tyler if he can stay at his house. Tyler agrees, but asks for something in return, in a now-famous line: "I want you to hit me as hard as you can."[10] The resulting fight in a bar's parking lot attracts more disenchanted males, and a new form of support group, the first "Fight Club," is born. The fight club becomes a new type of therapy through bare-knuckle fighting, controlled by a set of rules: You don't talk about fight club. You don't talk about fight club.[11] When someone says stop, or goes limp, even if he's just faking it, the fight is over.[12] Only two guys to a fight. One fight at a time. They fight without shirts or shoes. The fights go on as long as they have to. If this is your first night at fight club, you have to fight. -- Fight Club, pages 48-50[13] Later in the book the mechanic tells the narrator two new rules to fight club. The first new rule is that nobody is the center of fight club except for the two men fighting. The second new rule is that fight club will always be free. Meanwhile, Tyler rescues Marla from a suicide attempt and the two initiate an affair that confounds the narrator. Throughout this affair, Marla is mostly unaware of the existence of fight club, and completely unaware of Tyler and the narrator's interaction with one another.[14] As the fight club's membership grows (and, unbeknownst to the narrator, spreads to other cities across the country), Tyler begins to use it to spread anti-consumerist ideas and recruits its members to participate in increasingly elaborate attacks on corporate America. This was originally the narrator's idea, but Tyler takes control from him. Tyler eventually gathers the most devoted fight club members (referred to as "space monkeys") and forms "Project Mayhem", a cult-like organization that trains itself as an army to bring down modern civilization. This organization, like the fight club, is controlled by a set of rules: You don't ask questions. You don't ask questions. No excuses. No lies. You have to trust Tyler. -- Fight Club, pages 119, 122, 125[15] The narrator starts off as a loyal participant in Project Mayhem, seeing it as the next step for fight club. However, he becomes uncomfortable with the increasing destructiveness of their activities after it results in the death of Bob. As the narrator endeavors to stop Tyler and his followers, he learns that he is Tyler;[16] Tyler is not a separate person, but a separate personality. As the narrator struggled with his hatred for his job and his consumerist lifestyle, his mind began to form a new personality that was able to escape from the problems of his normal life. The final straw came when he met Marla; Tyler was truly born as a distinct personality when the narrator's unconscious desire for Marla clashed with his conscious hatred for her. Having come to the surface, Tyler's personality has been slowly taking over the narrator's mind, which he planned to take over completely by making the narrator's real personality more like his. The narrator's bouts of insomnia had actually been Tyler's personality surfacing; Tyler would be active whenever the narrator was "sleeping". This allowed Tyler to manipulate the narrator into helping him create fight club; Tyler learned recipes for creating explosives when he was in control, and used this knowledge to blow up his own condo. The narrator also learns that Tyler plans to blow up the Parker-Morris building (the fictional "tallest building in the world") in the downtown area of the city using homemade bombs created by Project Mayhem. The actual reason for the explosion is to destroy the nearby national museum. During the explosion, Tyler plans to die as a martyr for Project Mayhem, taking the narrator's life as well. Realizing this, the narrator sets out to stop Tyler, although Tyler is always thinking ahead of him. In his attempts to stop Tyler, he makes peace with Marla (who always knew the narrator as Tyler) and explains to her that he is not Tyler Durden. The narrator is eventually forced to confront Tyler on the roof of the building. The narrator is held captive at gunpoint by Tyler, forced to watch the destruction wrought on the museum by Project Mayhem. Marla comes to the roof with one of the support groups. Tyler vanishes, because "Tyler was his hallucination, not hers." [17] With Tyler gone, the narrator waits for the bomb to explode and kill him. However, the bomb malfunctions because Tyler mixed paraffin into the explosives, which "never, ever works." Still alive and holding the gun that Tyler used to carry on him, the narrator decides to make the first decision that is truly his own: he puts the gun in his mouth and shoots himself. Some time later, he awakens in a mental institution, believing that he is dead and has gone to heaven. The book ends with members of Project Mayhem who work at the institution telling the narrator that their plans still continue, and that they are expecting Tyler to come back. [edit] Characters in Fight Club Narrator Some fans of the film refer to the narrator as "Jack", which is in reference to a scene in which he reads stories written from the perspective of a man's organs (e.g. "Jack's medulla oblongata"); the protagonists' lines in the official movie script also use the name "Jack" to denote them. Furthermore, a number of props from the film (such as a paycheck for the narrator) have the name "Jack Moore" on them, indicating that members of the film's crew also thought the narrator's name was Jack. The name "Jack" was "Joe" in the novel, which was changed in the film to avoid conflicts with Reader's Digest over the use of the name (the articles read by the narrator were featured in the magazine). The narrator of Fight Club set a precedent for the protagonists of later novels by Palahniuk, especially in the case of male protagonists, as they often shared his anti-heroic and transgressive behavior. Tyler Durden A neo-luddite, nihilist with a strong hatred for consumer culture. "Because of his nature"[18], Tyler works night jobs where he causes problems for the companies; he also makes soap to supplement his income and create the ingredients for his bomb making which will be put to work later with his fight club. He is the co-founder of fight club (it was his idea to have the fight that led to it). He later launches Project Mayhem, from which he and the members make various attacks on consumerism. Tyler is blond, as by the narrator's comment "in his everything-blond way." The unhinged but magnetic Tyler could also be considered an antihero (especially since he and the narrator are technically the same person), although he becomes the antagonist of the novel later in the story. Few characters like Tyler have appeared in later novels by Palahniuk, though the character of Oyster from Lullaby shares many similarities. Marla Singer A woman that the narrator meets during a support group. The narrator no longer receives the same release from the groups when he realizes Marla is faking her problems just like he is. After he leaves the groups, he meets her again when she meets Tyler and becomes his lover. She is a nymphomaniac, and she shares many of Tyler's thoughts on consumer culture. In later novels by Palahniuk in which the protagonist is male, a female character similar to Marla has also appeared. Marla and these other female characters have helped Palahniuk to add romantic themes into his novels. Robert "Bob" Paulson A man that the narrator meets at a support group for testicular cancer. A former bodybuilder, Bob lost his testicles to cancer caused by the steroids he used to bulk up his muscles, and had to undergo testosterone injections; this resulted in his body increasing its estrogen, causing him to grow large breasts (Gynecomastia) ("Bitch-tits") and develop a softer voice. The narrator befriends Bob and, after leaving the groups, meets him again in fight club. Bob's death later in the story while carrying out an assignment for Project Mayhem causes the narrator to turn against Tyler, because the members of Project Mayhem treat it as a trivial matter instead of a tragedy. When the narrator explains that the dead man had a name and was a real person, a member of Project Mayhem points out that only in death do members of Project Mayhem have a name. The unnamed member begins chanting, "his name was Robert Paulson", and this phrase becomes a meme and mantra that the narrator encounters later on in the story multiple times. This differs from the book which only states that people in other fight clubs were chanting "Robert Paulson" for the same reason as mentioned above. When the narrator goes to a fight club to shut it down for this reason, Tyler orders them to make him a "homework assignment". [edit] Motifs At two points in the novel, the narrator claims he wants to "wipe [his] ass with the Mona Lisa"; a mechanic who joins fight club also repeats this to him in one scene.[19] This motif shows his desire for chaos, later explicitly expressed in his urge to "destroy something beautiful". Additionally, he mentions at one point that "Nothing is static. Even the Mona Lisa is falling apart."[20] University of Calgary literary scholar Paul Kennett claims that this want for chaos is a result of an Oedipus complex, as the narrator, Tyler, and the mechanic all show disdain for their fathers.[21] This is most explicitly stated in the scene that the mechanic appears in: The mechanic says, "If you're male and you're Christian and living in America, your father is your model for God. And if you never know your father, if your father bails out or dies or is never at home, what do you believe about God? ... How Tyler saw it was that getting God's attention for being bad was better than getting no attention at all. Maybe because God's hate is better than His indifference. If you could be either God's worst enemy or nothing, which would you choose? We are God's middle children, according to Tyler Durden, with no special place in history and no special attention. Unless we get God's attention, we have no hope of damnation or redemption. Which is worse, hell or nothing? Only if we're caught and punished can we be saved. "Burn the Louvre," the mechanic says, "and wipe your ass with the Mona Lisa. This way at least, God would know our names." -- Fight Club, page 141[22] Kennett further argues that Tyler wants to use this chaos to change history so that "God's middle children" will have some historical significance, whether or not this significance is "damnation or redemption".[23] This will figuratively return their absent fathers, as judgement by future generations will replace judgement by their fathers. After reading stories written from the perspective of the organs of a man named Joe, the narrator begins using similar quotations to describe his feelings, often replacing organs with feelings and things involved in his life. The narrator often repeats the line "I know this because Tyler knows this." This is used to foreshadow the novel's major plot twist in which Tyler is revealed to be the same person as the narrator. The color cornflower blue first appears as the color of an icon on the narrator's boss's computer.[20] Later, it is mentioned that his boss has eyes of the same color.[24] These mentions of the color are the first of many uses of cornflower blue in Palahniuk's books, which all feature the color at some point in the text. The theme of masculinity is also a motif throughout the book. Different symbols lead to this reoccurring theme, such as violence, and testes. Fighting is perceived as a masculine characteristic. [edit] Subtext Throughout the novel, Palahniuk uses the narrator and Tyler to comment on how people in modern society try to find meaning in their lives through commercial culture. Several lines in the novel make b Paint (formerly Paintbrush for Windows) is a simple graphics painting program that has been included with almost all versions of Microsoft Windows since its first release. It is often referred to as MS Paint or Microsoft Paint. The program opens and saves files as Windows bitmap (24-bit, 256 color, 16 color, and monochrome, all with the .bmp extension), JPEG, GIF (without animation or transparency, although the Windows 98 version and a Windows 95 upgrade did support the latter), PNG (without alpha channel), and TIFF. The program can be in color mode or two-color black-and-white, but there is no grayscale mode. Contents [hide] 1 History 2 Features 3 Support for indexed palettes 4 Versions 5 See also 6 Notes and references 7 External links [edit] History The first version of Paint was introduced with the first version of Windows, Windows 1.0. This version only supported the MSP file format. This format is no longer supported by newer versions of Paint, along with PCX and RLE. Older versions cannot open or edit PNG files, and can only open GIF, JPEG, and TIFF files with a graphics filter for the specific file type. In Windows 95, a new version of Paint was introduced. The same icons and color palette continued to be used through Windows XP. An early version of the program, as bundled with Windows 3.1. (It was still known as Paintbrush at this stage.)In the Windows 98, Windows 2000 or Windows Me versions of Paint, images could be saved in JPEG and GIF formats if the necessary Microsoft graphics filters were installed, usually by another Microsoft application such as Microsoft Office or Microsoft PhotoDraw. Also, the canvas size was expanded automatically when larger images were opened or pasted. In Windows XP and later versions, Paint is based on GDI+ [1] and therefore, images can be natively saved as JPEG, GIF, TIFF and PNG without requiring additional graphics filters. However, alpha channel transparency is still not supported because the GDI+ version of Paint can only handle up to 24-bit depth images.

Fight Club[1] (1996) is the first published novel by American author Chuck Palahniuk. The plot is based around an unnamed protagonist who struggles with his growing discomfort with consumerism and changes in the state of masculinity in American culture. In an attempt to overcome this, he creates an underground fighting club as a radical form of psychotherapy. It was made into a movie of the same name in 1999 by director David Fincher. The movie became a pop culture phenomenon. In the wake of the film's popularity, the novel has become a target of criticism, mainly for its explicit depictions of violence.

[edit] History
When Palahniuk made his first attempt at publishing a novel (Invisible Monsters) publishers rejected it for being too disturbing. This led him to work on Fight Club, which he wrote as an attempt to disturb the publisher even more for rejecting him. Palahniuk wrote this story while working as a diesel mechanic for Freightliner. After initially publishing it as a short story (which became chapter 6 of the novel) in the compilation Pursuit of Happiness, Palahniuk expanded it into a full novel, which, contrary to what he expected, the publisher was willing to publish.[2] While the original, hardcover edition of the book received positive reviews and some awards, it had a short shelf life. Nevertheless, the book had made its way to Hollywood, where interest in adapting it to film was growing. It was eventually adapted in 1999 by screenwriter Jim Uhls and director David Fincher. The film was a box office disappointment (although it was #1 at the U.S. box office in its first weekend) and critical reaction was mostly favorable, but a cult following soon emerged as the DVD of the film was popular upon release. As a result of the film, the original hardcover edition became a collector's item.[3] This film is now widely considered to be a defining work and an uncompromising critique of humanity's loss of identity through mass consumerism. Two paperback rereleases of the novel, one in 1999 and the other in 2004 (the latter of which begins with an introduction by the author about the conception and popularity of both the novel and the movie), were later made. This success helped launch Palahniuk's career as a popular novelist, as well as establish a writing style that would appear in many of his future novels.
Despite popular belief, Palahniuk was not inspired to write the novel by any actual fight club. The club itself was based on a series of fights that Palahniuk got into over previous years (most notably one that he got into during a camping trip).[4] Even though he has mentioned this in many interviews, Palahniuk is still often approached by fans wanting to know where their local fight club takes place. Palahniuk insists that there is no real, singular organization like the one in his book. He does admit however that some fans have mentioned to him that some fight clubs (albeit much smaller than the one in the novel) exist or previously existed (some having existed long before the novel was written). Also, in the introduction to the current edition of the novel, Palahniuk refers to a few of the many actual instances of mischief being carried out in the style of fight club, most notably, a "Waiter from one of London's two finest restaurants" alleging that he ejaculated into Margaret Thatcher's food on multiple occasions.
Many other events in the novel were also based on events that Palahniuk himself had experienced. The support groups that the narrator attends are based on support groups to which the author brought terminally ill people as part of a volunteer job he did for a local hospital. Project Mayhem is loosely based on the Cacophony Society, of which Palahniuk is a member. Various events and characters are based on friends of the author. Other events came as a result of stories told to him by various people he had talked to.[5] This method of combining various stories from various people into novels has become a common way of writing novels for Palahniuk ever since.
Outside of Palahniuk's professional and personal life, the novel's impact has been felt elsewhere. Several individuals in various locations of the United States (and possibly in other countries), ranging from teenagers to people in technical careers, have set up their own fight clubs based on the one mentioned in the novel.[6] Some of Tyler's on-the-job pranks (such as food tampering) have been repeated by fans of the book (although these same pranks existed well before the novel was published). Palahniuk eventually documented this phenomenon in his essay "Monkey Think, Monkey Do",[7] which was published in his book Stranger Than Fiction: True Stories, as well as in the introduction to the 2004 paperback edition of Fight Club. Other fans of the book have been inspired to non-anti-social activity as well; Palahniuk has claimed that fans tell him that they have been inspired to go back to college after reading the book.[2]
Other than the film, a few other adaptations have been attempted. In 2004 Fight Club was in development as a musical, developed by Palahniuk, Fincher, and Trent Reznor.[8] Brad Pitt, who played the role of Tyler Durden in the film, expressed interest in being involved. A video game loosely based on the film was published by Vivendi Universal Games in 2004, receiving poor reviews from gaming critics (see Fight Club (video game)).
[edit] Plot summary
The book centers on a nameless narrator who hates his job and his life. The narrator works for a car company, also unnamed, organizing product recalls on defective models if, and only if, the cost of the recall is less than the cost of out-of-court settlements paid to relatives of the deceased (which parallels the 1970s story of the Ford Pinto's safety problems and recall). At the same time, he is becoming disenchanted with the "nesting instinct"[9] of consumerism that has absorbed his life, forcing him to define himself by the furniture, clothes, and other material things that he owns. This dissatisfaction, combined with his frequent business trips across multiple time zones, disturb him to the point that he suffers from chronic insomnia.
At the recommendation of his physician (who does not consider his insomnia to be a serious ailment), the narrator goes to a support group for men with testicular cancer to "see what real suffering is like". After finding that crying at these support groups and listening to emotional outpourings from the suffering allows him to sleep at night, he becomes dependent on them. At the same time, he befriends a cancer victim named Bob. Although he does not really suffer from any of the ailments that the other attendants have, he is never caught being a "tourist" until he meets Marla Singer, a woman who also attends support groups for alternative reasons. Her presence reflects the narrator's "tourism", and only reminds him that he doesn't belong at the support groups. He begins to hate Marla for keeping him from crying, and therefore from sleeping. After a short confrontation, they begin going to separate support groups in order to avoid meeting again.
Shortly before this incident, his life changes radically upon meeting Tyler Durden, a beach artist who works low-paying jobs at night in order to perform deviant behavior on the job. After his confrontation with Marla, the narrator's condo is destroyed by an explosion and he asks Tyler if he can stay at his house. Tyler agrees, but asks for something in return, in a now-famous line: "I want you to hit me as hard as you can."[10] The resulting fight in a bar's parking lot attracts more disenchanted males, and a new form of support group, the first "Fight Club," is born. The fight club becomes a new type of therapy through bare-knuckle fighting, controlled by a set of rules:
You don't talk about fight club.
You don't talk about fight club.[11]
When someone says stop, or goes limp, even if he's just faking it, the fight is over.[12]
Only two guys to a fight.
One fight at a time.
They fight without shirts or shoes.
The fights go on as long as they have to.
If this is your first night at fight club, you have to fight.
-- Fight Club, pages 48-50[13]
Later in the book the mechanic tells the narrator two new rules to fight club. The first new rule is that nobody is the center of fight club except for the two men fighting. The second new rule is that fight club will always be free.
Meanwhile, Tyler rescues Marla from a suicide attempt and the two initiate an affair that confounds the narrator. Throughout this affair, Marla is mostly unaware of the existence of fight club, and completely unaware of Tyler and the narrator's interaction with one another.[14]
As the fight club's membership grows (and, unbeknownst to the narrator, spreads to other cities across the country), Tyler begins to use it to spread anti-consumerist ideas and recruits its members to participate in increasingly elaborate attacks on corporate America. This was originally the narrator's idea, but Tyler takes control from him. Tyler eventually gathers the most devoted fight club members (referred to as "space monkeys") and forms "Project Mayhem", a cult-like organization that trains itself as an army to bring down modern civilization. This organization, like the fight club, is controlled by a set of rules:
You don't ask questions.
You don't ask questions.
No excuses.
No lies.
You have to trust Tyler.
-- Fight Club, pages 119, 122, 125[15]
The narrator starts off as a loyal participant in Project Mayhem, seeing it as the next step for fight club. However, he becomes uncomfortable with the increasing destructiveness of their activities after it results in the death of Bob.
As the narrator endeavors to stop Tyler and his followers, he learns that he is Tyler;[16] Tyler is not a separate person, but a separate personality. As the narrator struggled with his hatred for his job and his consumerist lifestyle, his mind began to form a new personality that was able to escape from the problems of his normal life. The final straw came when he met Marla; Tyler was truly born as a distinct personality when the narrator's unconscious desire for Marla clashed with his conscious hatred for her. Having come to the surface, Tyler's personality has been slowly taking over the narrator's mind, which he planned to take over completely by making the narrator's real personality more like his. The narrator's bouts of insomnia had actually been Tyler's personality surfacing; Tyler would be active whenever the narrator was "sleeping". This allowed Tyler to manipulate the narrator into helping him create fight club; Tyler learned recipes for creating explosives when he was in control, and used this knowledge to blow up his own condo.
The narrator also learns that Tyler plans to blow up the Parker-Morris building (the fictional "tallest building in the world") in the downtown area of the city using homemade bombs created by Project Mayhem. The actual reason for the explosion is to destroy the nearby national museum. During the explosion, Tyler plans to die as a martyr for Project Mayhem, taking the narrator's life as well. Realizing this, the narrator sets out to stop Tyler, although Tyler is always thinking ahead of him. In his attempts to stop Tyler, he makes peace with Marla (who always knew the narrator as Tyler) and explains to her that he is not Tyler Durden. The narrator is eventually forced to confront Tyler on the roof of the building. The narrator is held captive at gunpoint by Tyler, forced to watch the destruction wrought on the museum by Project Mayhem. Marla comes to the roof with one of the support groups. Tyler vanishes, because "Tyler was his hallucination, not hers." [17]
With Tyler gone, the narrator waits for the bomb to explode and kill him. However, the bomb malfunctions because Tyler mixed paraffin into the explosives, which "never, ever works." Still alive and holding the gun that Tyler used to carry on him, the narrator decides to make the first decision that is truly his own: he puts the gun in his mouth and shoots himself. Some time later, he awakens in a mental institution, believing that he is dead and has gone to heaven. The book ends with members of Project Mayhem who work at the institution telling the narrator that their plans still continue, and that they are expecting Tyler to come back.
[edit] Characters in Fight Club
Narrator
Some fans of the film refer to the narrator as "Jack", which is in reference to a scene in which he reads stories written from the perspective of a man's organs (e.g. "Jack's medulla oblongata"); the protagonists' lines in the official movie script also use the name "Jack" to denote them. Furthermore, a number of props from the film (such as a paycheck for the narrator) have the name "Jack Moore" on them, indicating that members of the film's crew also thought the narrator's name was Jack. The name "Jack" was "Joe" in the novel, which was changed in the film to avoid conflicts with Reader's Digest over the use of the name (the articles read by the narrator were featured in the magazine). The narrator of Fight Club set a precedent for the protagonists of later novels by Palahniuk, especially in the case of male protagonists, as they often shared his anti-heroic and transgressive behavior.
Tyler Durden
A neo-luddite, nihilist with a strong hatred for consumer culture. "Because of his nature"[18], Tyler works night jobs where he causes problems for the companies; he also makes soap to supplement his income and create the ingredients for his bomb making which will be put to work later with his fight club. He is the co-founder of fight club (it was his idea to have the fight that led to it). He later launches Project Mayhem, from which he and the members make various attacks on consumerism. Tyler is blond, as by the narrator's comment "in his everything-blond way." The unhinged but magnetic Tyler could also be considered an antihero (especially since he and the narrator are technically the same person), although he becomes the antagonist of the novel later in the story. Few characters like Tyler have appeared in later novels by Palahniuk, though the character of Oyster from Lullaby shares many similarities.
Marla Singer
A woman that the narrator meets during a support group. The narrator no longer receives the same release from the groups when he realizes Marla is faking her problems just like he is. After he leaves the groups, he meets her again when she meets Tyler and becomes his lover. She is a nymphomaniac, and she shares many of Tyler's thoughts on consumer culture. In later novels by Palahniuk in which the protagonist is male, a female character similar to Marla has also appeared. Marla and these other female characters have helped Palahniuk to add romantic themes into his novels.
Robert "Bob" Paulson
A man that the narrator meets at a support group for testicular cancer. A former bodybuilder, Bob lost his testicles to cancer caused by the steroids he used to bulk up his muscles, and had to undergo testosterone injections; this resulted in his body increasing its estrogen, causing him to grow large breasts (Gynecomastia) ("Bitch-tits") and develop a softer voice. The narrator befriends Bob and, after leaving the groups, meets him again in fight club. Bob's death later in the story while carrying out an assignment for Project Mayhem causes the narrator to turn against Tyler, because the members of Project Mayhem treat it as a trivial matter instead of a tragedy. When the narrator explains that the dead man had a name and was a real person, a member of Project Mayhem points out that only in death do members of Project Mayhem have a name. The unnamed member begins chanting, "his name was Robert Paulson", and this phrase becomes a meme and mantra that the narrator encounters later on in the story multiple times. This differs from the book which only states that people in other fight clubs were chanting "Robert Paulson" for the same reason as mentioned above. When the narrator goes to a fight club to shut it down for this reason, Tyler orders them to make him a "homework assignment".
[edit] Motifs
At two points in the novel, the narrator claims he wants to "wipe [his] ass with the Mona Lisa"; a mechanic who joins fight club also repeats this to him in one scene.[19] This motif shows his desire for chaos, later explicitly expressed in his urge to "destroy something beautiful". Additionally, he mentions at one point that "Nothing is static. Even the Mona Lisa is falling apart."[20] University of Calgary literary scholar Paul Kennett claims that this want for chaos is a result of an Oedipus complex, as the narrator, Tyler, and the mechanic all show disdain for their fathers.[21] This is most explicitly stated in the scene that the mechanic appears in:
The mechanic says, "If you're male and you're Christian and living in America, your father is your model for God. And if you never know your father, if your father bails out or dies or is never at home, what do you believe about God?
...
How Tyler saw it was that getting God's attention for being bad was better than getting no attention at all. Maybe because God's hate is better than His indifference.
If you could be either God's worst enemy or nothing, which would you choose?
We are God's middle children, according to Tyler Durden, with no special place in history and no special attention.
Unless we get God's attention, we have no hope of damnation or redemption.
Which is worse, hell or nothing?
Only if we're caught and punished can we be saved.
"Burn the Louvre," the mechanic says, "and wipe your ass with the Mona Lisa. This way at least, God would know our names."
-- Fight Club, page 141[22]
Kennett further argues that Tyler wants to use this chaos to change history so that "God's middle children" will have some historical significance, whether or not this significance is "damnation or redemption".[23] This will figuratively return their absent fathers, as judgement by future generations will replace judgement by their fathers.
After reading stories written from the perspective of the organs of a man named Joe, the narrator begins using similar quotations to describe his feelings, often replacing organs with feelings and things involved in his life.
The narrator often repeats the line "I know this because Tyler knows this." This is used to foreshadow the novel's major plot twist in which Tyler is revealed to be the same person as the narrator.
The color cornflower blue first appears as the color of an icon on the narrator's boss's computer.[20] Later, it is mentioned that his boss has eyes of the same color.[24] These mentions of the color are the first of many uses of cornflower blue in Palahniuk's books, which all feature the color at some point in the text.
The theme of masculinity is also a motif throughout the book. Different symbols lead to this reoccurring theme, such as violence, and testes. Fighting is perceived as a masculine characteristic.
[edit] Subtext
Throughout the novel, Palahniuk uses the narrator and Tyler to comment on how people in modern society try to find meaning in their lives through commercial culture. Several lines in the novel make

Paint (formerly Paintbrush for Windows) is a simple graphics painting program that has been included with almost all versions of Microsoft Windows since its first release. It is often referred to as MS Paint or Microsoft Paint. The program opens and saves files as Windows bitmap (24-bit, 256 color, 16 color, and monochrome, all with the .bmp extension), JPEG, GIF (without animation or transparency, although the Windows 98 version and a Windows 95 upgrade did support the latter), PNG (without alpha channel), and TIFF. The program can be in color mode or two-color black-and-white, but there is no grayscale mode.

[edit] History
The first version of Paint was introduced with the first version of Windows, Windows 1.0. This version only supported the MSP file format. This format is no longer supported by newer versions of Paint, along with PCX and RLE. Older versions cannot open or edit PNG files, and can only open GIF, JPEG, and TIFF files with a graphics filter for the specific file type.
In Windows 95, a new version of Paint was introduced. The same icons and color palette continued to be used through Windows XP.
An early version of the program, as bundled with Windows 3.1. (It was still known as Paintbrush at this stage.)In the Windows 98, Windows 2000 or Windows Me versions of Paint, images could be saved in JPEG and GIF formats if the necessary Microsoft graphics filters were installed, usually by another Microsoft application such as Microsoft Office or Microsoft PhotoDraw. Also, the canvas size was expanded automatically when larger images were opened or pasted.
In Windows XP and later versions, Paint is based on GDI+ [1] and therefore, images can be natively saved as JPEG, GIF, TIFF and PNG without requiring additional graphics filters. However, alpha channel transparency is still not supported because the GDI+ version of Paint can only handle up to 24-bit depth images. Also, since another accessory, Imaging, was discontinued in Windows XP, support for acquiring images from a scanner or a digital camera was also added to Paint. However, the tertiary color function, used for creating GIF files with a transparent background, was removed. Also, the ability to save and load palette colors to and from .pal files was removed.
In Windows Vista, the toolbar icons and default color palette have been updated. Also, an increased number of undo levels, a zoom slider, and a crop function have been added.
