IT SAY...
...Goddam money. It always ends up making you blue as hell...
IT MEAN...
...Aside from the obvious interpretation of money being the root of all evil, much like the guy who is actually dead off the 6th sense, the blue money could be taken as Holden, being rich, has had money in his life so long and it has been so readily available that Holden has lost any love for it that he might once have had. Much like he's lost his love of the ever available girl of the time. He has a hooker in his room and he decides to talk...
IT MATTER (dark matter)...
...Holden is like a spoiled child (gee surprise there, a rich kid being spoiled? WHAT A SURPRISE!!!) A spoiled child. A spoiled child... A spoiled child...A soiled child...A boild child... A doiled child... A foiled child... yes, a spoiled child. Children that are spoiled tend to become bored of the mundane easily...the mundane being anything from happiness to normalcy. Which could explain why he smokes, drinks and does not have sex with a hooker (which would get this *ahem* wonderful book banned everywhere from sea to, oh so glittering, sea) Normal people who are in high school do NOT drink and usually DON'T smoke. (skiping over the hooker part because it isn't that widely adveratised now, is it?) Back to the begining of this gobbeldeygook. Holden is not happy. Thus he is tired of being happy and is, then sad... Voila!
Holden is constantly like this throughout the book, geting bored of things spazticly. That is what matter!!!
Dis me on THAT Mastermind!!!

Don't mind if i do.
ReplyDeleteHolden is not bored of happiness because he has never felt it! Or i suppose he just hasn't felt it in this book, though he probably felt it at some point, but i still think he hasn't felt a lot.
Besides, smoking and drinking have become his normal habits (or at least trying to drink), so he obviously isn't trying to escape the normal by doing those things!! Also he never had sex before so what do you mean by him always having a girl available?
Take that Doug! Who made the mistake now!?
well, kyle, he mentions losing his virginity near the begining. soo technically you are the one who made teh mistake
