Fun fact : Lightning McQueen eats losers in breakfast (According to him)  I do like Cars 3 though. Cars 2, though very good, is behind the original one. |

Gotta say, after reading All Quiet On The Western Front, i feel bad. Even tho i and many of us experienced some sort of conflict, it was never to the point that we didn't think that it wouldn't end. Being a soldier who fought in ww1 and survived must be really unlucky, as most, if not all your friends died fighting a mostly pointless war. More unlucky if you got gassed and have to deal with the complications for life. It's also a book where you feel satisfied that the protagonist died, not because he's bad or hated but because you want to see his suffering end. |

Being a soldier who fought in ww1 and survived must be really unlucky, as most, if not all your friends died fighting a mostly pointless war. More unlucky if you got gassed and have to deal with the complications for life. It's also a book where you feel satisfied that the protagonist died, not because he's bad or hated but because you want to see his suffering end. It's indeed a good read, full of things to consider.
No matter of training can prepare you for how everlasting a conflict is. During training, you can get woken up by surprise night raids by your commanders, but you'll know that the day after that, or the day two days later will be fine. To stay on the front for weeks without respite truly has that mental pressure.
Furthermore, they illustrate the differences between HQ commanders and frontline officers clearly, where the major asks him if he doesn't know how to greet an officer properly, versus his lieutenant who manned the guns to let them get away.
The army is usually like that, where positions are given by appointment rotations, not who is the most capable. The top generals may have been competant enough, and fought a war before, but the younger Captains and Majors? Probably not. HQ politics involve a lot of rank pulling, which leads to quite a toxic culture.
Afterwhich, the book lets us glimpse into life after, where he has no idea what to do when visiting his family. This part was deep. Spending time at work 5 days a week may cause people to be workaholics, but this time it's weeks there, and the work is thankless and bloody.
You mentioned about the meaningless of war and surviving being unlucky.
I would agree that wondering whether the war was pointless or not is a budern of the living.
I think the way he went at the end was also better than spending the final days in the death room

What is a Presentation exactly? Yes anybody answer this, I also want to What is presentation? Pick a "presentation" or lecture thread in the board at the bottom and take a look. Illustration and videos are preferable (in general, not EFC specific) and various editing tools may be used if you want it (spoilers, coloured font besides white, different font sizes, etc.). Or just post a picture of something and say "ta-da!". Captions and/or annotations not needed. |

What do you say now John Marston ? Atleast you aren't winning the league! 1. I'm not a die hard Liverpool fan. It's just that they won the Premier League when I started following Football, hence I follow them. I don't really care even if they lose. 2. At least Man Utd isn't first. 3. Chelsea is my second favorite team. |
