but i've already started Don Quixote! Now I just don't know what to do

Don Quixote is just a crazy guy hallucinating and attacking random things. You don't need to read a book for that, just stand out in the street long enough (or watch professional wrestling)

Yea I remember the horse bit, that was pretty grim. Poor horsey.

Surprised at the non love for the Don. Thought it was considered something of a literary classic?

Classics are overrated. Except the Iliad. The Iliad is awesome.

The Odyssee on the other hand is just a rip-off from Apocalypse Now.

Yesterday, upon the stair, I saw a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. Oh, how I wish he'd go away.

I skipped by a lot of this thread.

The only criticism I can think of off the top of my head is that most of the characters in Coltaines group were quite bland and lacked personality. I found myself not really caring when they died, Bult excepted.
