Project mayhem is a step up from fight club, this is a project created by Tyler.
In project Mayhem the people in the group go around and do crimes. There are 4 committees and each meets on a different day. Arson on Monday. Assault on Tuesday. Mischief on Wednesday. Misinformation on Thursday. Project mayhem is like organized chaos. Tyler each week writes down proposes of things to do each week. Before each meeting Tyler picks 4 of the events he likes and throws them into a hat with some blank paper. No one but tyler knows the events, and the event you pick you cant tell no one else. The next day if someone sees a crazy event in the newspaper they have to wonder if that was from their group or was it not. If you get a blank paper you only need to do homework if you dont you need to do what the paper says. There are some rules to the project to.
1. If you get arrested while doing your event you are kicked off.
2. If you laugh while doing your event your kicked off.
3. there is no exsuses in project mayhem.
4. there is no lies.
Within one week every person on the assault must pick a fight where he will not come out the hero and the fight club will not work. This is a crazy idea from my point of view why would anyone do this. The idea of this is to recruit some joe smo on the street and make him feel good by winning the fight so he will join the project. Tyler at the end says that he does not care if anyone gets hurt he just wants to let people know they can control history.
Finally! a complete post!
ReplyDeleteYour question at the end is a good one. Why the heck would anyone do this? What is the author up to here? What is this book really about? I'm not sure I get the "controlling history" idea; perhaps this will become clearer in your final posts.
