Thoughts I had while reading:
-omg you pretentious jackholes
-These guys are people who think Holden Caulfield is someone to admire
-Yeah, dilettantes at best
-overeducated suburban cowards
-chickenshit morons (not including the bridge-climbing, but totally including all the tunnel walking)
-lily-livered, gutless, immature pseudo-academics. I have done scarier shit than this with far less freaking out.
I was so disgusted that I kept putting it down and wandering off to read something more awesome, and yet I kept coming back because I wanted to read about real people exploring the hidden places of NY. I just didn't want to read about these idiots doing it and comparing themselves to truly badass, courageous explorers from the 14th-17th centuries. Give me an account of people actually walking the Croton Aqueduct, not wimping out because it was dark and wet in there.
Also, this book srsly needed a map.… (meer)
