:43:02
you do not talk
about Fight Club.
:43:06

Someoneyells ''Stop!''

Narrator: This kid from work,
Ricky,
:43:44
couldn't remember
whetheryou ordered pens
:43:46
with blue ink or black...
:43:49
Come on, man!
:43:50
But Ricky was a god
for 1 0 minutes
:43:52
when the trounced the maitre d'
ofa local food court.
:43:57
Sometimes,
all you could hear
:43:59
were the flat, hard
packing sounds
:44:01
over theyelling...
:44:05
or the wet choke when
someone caught their breath
:44:08
and sprayed...
:44:09
Stop!
:44:11
You weren't alive anywhere
likeyou were there.
:44:14
But Fight Club
only exists
:44:15
in the hours between
when Fight Club starts
:44:17
and when Fight Club ends.
:44:19
Even ifI could tell someone
they had a good fight,
:44:23
I wouldn't be talking
to the same man.
:44:24
Whoyou were
in Fight Club
:44:26
is not whoyou were
in the rest ofthe world.
:44:28
The guywho came to Fight Club
for the fi rst time,
:44:31
his ass
was a wad ofcookie dough.
:44:33
After a few weeks,
:44:35
he was carved
out ofwood.
:44:36
Ifyou could fight
any celebrity,
:44:38
who would you fight?
:44:40
Alive or dead?
:44:41
It doesn't matter.
Who'd be tough?
:44:44
Hemingway.
:44:45
You?
:44:48
Shatner.
:44:49
I'd fight
William Shatner.
:44:53
Narrator: We all started
seeing things differently.
:44:56
Everywhere we went,
:44:57
we were sizing things up.
