I love Godot but haven’t ever seen it. My mom went to a regional rep performance and bailed during intermission.

TFW you paid $1400 to see Beckett’s most famous work without knowing anything about it

One Star Review of Waiting for Godot on Broadway
I recently attended Waiting for Godot on Broadway and spent over $1,400 for two Row C seats (103 and 104). I'm a longtime admirer of Broadway productions and even hold a season pass for Shea's Performing Arts Theatre, so I came in with genuine enthusiasm and high expectations. Unfortunately, this show was unlike anything ! have ever experienced —and not in a good way.
What I encountered was not the artistry, music, or emotional storytelling I usually associate with Broadway, but instead what felt like an endless cycle of nonsensical conversation between characters who seemed trapped in their own madness. I tried-truly tried-to find meaning, symbolism, or even a thread of emotional resonance. I stayed through the first half hoping the second would offer clarity. But by intermission, it was clear: this was a waste of both time and money.
Keanu Reeves is an actor I respect greatly, but I cannot fathom why he would agree to participate in such a disjointed, inaccessible production. His talent was lost in a performance that defied reason rather than provoked insight.
To anyone considering attending: unless you are drawn to highly abstract, nearly incomprehensible theater, I strongly caution you against this show. For the average, educated, thoughtful theatergoer, it is far more frustrating than fulfilling. In my opinion, this was the single most disappointing Broadway experience I've ever had - an unfortunate waste of money and, more importantly, of time.

Madison has managed to lose or exile every used bookstore from the campus area, save this one place that opened in a basement like 2 years ago.

Oh man, I can just walk into the small, newer bookstore on my way home from work tomorrow and buy that new Pynchon novel.

Every time I hear You Sexy Thing, I can't help but remember when I thought the Hot Chocolate guy was singing "I believe in Urkel"

Every single news outlet: This giant likes to bake bread out of ground up human bones. Here's why you should be worried.

I ~HIGHLY~ recommend lifting the heaviest weights you safely can while listening to the third My Bloody Valentine album ‘MBV’
