![]() ![]() Rumble Boys, Inc., released a line of mens' grooming products labeled with Tyler Durden quotes. Actual fight clubs were discovered in universities and in the basements of Mormon churches. Tyler Durden himself became a shorthand for rebellion. He mentions how the look of Fight Club film was appropriated by fashion icons like Donatella Versace and how Dolce Gabbana launched a men's line that copied Tyler Durden's wardrobe in the film. Palahniuk reflects on how his short story went on to become a novel, and then a film. The cowboy's response is, "There was a book?" The cowboy recites the line, "The first rule of the Haunted Tunnel Tour is you don't talk about the Haunted Tunnel Tour." Palahniuk informs the cowboy that he wrote that book. Palahniuk starts with a humorous anecdote in which he is seemingly the lone participant on the "Haunted Tunnel Tour", hosted by a cowboy who has been drinking. He also reflects on how the novel came to take shape. In copies of the novel published after 2005, Palahniuk included a brief afterword detailing how the cultural impact of the book and film have affected his life. ![]()
