Attractive as compared to other female athletes, not so much when compared to actresses, models, or even attractive women in general.

It matters what floats your boat. Some might like the athletic girl over a floosy type. It all goes back to one's definition. Yours is different than others.

Exactly my point. Beyonce is the definition of "a floosy type."(floozy) I personally don't find her to be that attractive. That picture with Candace and Beyonce below was what I was talking about. Compare Candace's smile to Beyonce's....then you might finally get my point. She's(Beyonce) plastic in my eyes. I like an athletic, tall, pretty, and ambitous girl. They don't have to Heidi Cloom(looks wise) for me to consider dating. The models that I have met(albeit young) havn't impressed me much in the personality department. I'm 19, my taste in women doesn't consist squarely upon the drop dead gorgeous.

I don't think anyone is having trouble understanding you (although you don't exactly write like F. Scott Fitzgerald). Disagreements and misunderstandings are not the same thing.

Nice. I'm all for references to great American novelists.

Yeah, it sucks so bad that people will still be reading it en masse 200 years after you're dead.

Personal preference fellas. Easy. Easy.

I will say the movie with Redford wasn't bad.

I mean I easily read 30 books that are much better on my morning walk in the mountains. The book is good compared to books in the same genre. Out of that genre it's average, to sub-par. So why would I downgrade?

I'm willing to bet the authors of whatever books you are talking about would trade in all their past works to be able to publish something under their name that is equal in quality to The Great Gatsby.

It was a joke. To hatvol's "Newspaper/ Hot women/ beach walk/ morning" speil about pretty women.

Honestly, I wouldn't know a good science fiction or romanticization of the 1920's novel if it kicked me in the ass. If I do read it's usually biographies or autobiographies in the genre of sports.

Exactly. Conversely, I don't see Beyonce dreaming of trading in her Jimmy Choos, Vera Wang and Gulfstream for a pair of Nikes, a WNBA jersey and commercial airliners.

And I don't see Candace trading her accomplishments to play a corporate puppet. She's plastic and bland in my eyes. I don't see much else beyond her voice and body measurements.

The Great Gatsby sucks was all said to set up a point. You all acted the same way as to many others in this thread when you said you wouldn't jump in the sack with these girls.

It's all the same. Different context but all the same.

Seriously: The Great Gatsby was okay. Nick Carraway was a jealous punk if you ask me.

Well, calling Nick jealous doesn't make too much sense, but I don't really feel like turning this board into a book club.

Simple: He was jealous of all the wealth around him. He moved to NY to make a buck and was still in the bad part of town or the lower society West Egg (I think). He was jealous that he wasn't rich and living on East Egg.

I wasn't intending to. Proving a point while I'm headed out the door doesn't require a perfect piece. Also, I prefer Mark Twain pertaining to your writer discussions.

I just thought it was funny that you misspelled Heidi Klum. In the context of your post, it was rather hilarious.

The fact that he ends up despising all those living on East Egg and then tells Gatsby (from West Egg) that he is better than all of them combined makes me think otherwise.

Comparing a post to a infamous writer can change things. And judging by your posts, I wouldn't call out somebody else's "writing" skills. Proving a point on a message point shouldn't qualify as a collation to writers. I'm an athlete, not a novelist.

He says, but he came to New York to be one of the East Egg'ers. Rich, Famous, High Society. He was jealous of them.

I don't even know where to begin.
