Amped to see Still Drinking on HN again.

If you enjoy devouring this guys writing, buy his book, “And Then I Thought I Was A Fish” (I think it’s the “novel” he references the game being based on?). I really really liked it. Link at the bottom of the original post.

The other book is just a collection of blog posts. It’s /okay/. But I really really liked ATITIWAF. The kind of book that makes you want to try your hand at writing.

Never read the book, but I'm a fan of his blog! I keep an excerpt of one of his posts pinned on my notes app:

"The only reason coders' computers work better than non-coders' computers is coders know computers are schizophrenic little children with auto-immune diseases and we don't beat them when they're bad."

I would also recommend his story about acid to anyone

Wow, that was a ride. I could think of worse things to do in a Friday night than read that for the past three hours. Thanks for linking. I'm now much more interested in reading the book and the rest of his blog.

It's the same plot to “And Then I Thought I Was A Fish”

> This is the story of a boy, a girl, a phone, a cat, the end of the universe, and the terrible power of ennui.

That book is so crazy good! I started reading and read it all the way through in one setting and then passed it off to all of my friends. Remarkable writing and I also felt it to be quite wise.
