Tyler Durden: I see in the fight club the strongest and smartest men whoโve ever lived. I see all this potential and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables, slaves with white collars, advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we donโt need.

And weโre very very pissed off. Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club
