Keep it down. Keep it down!

Every week, Tyler gave the rules that
-
he and I decided.
-
(Tyler)
Gentlemen...
-
Welcome to fight club.
-
The first rule of fight club is...
-
You do not talk about fight club.
-
The second rule of fight club is...
-
You do not talk about fight club!
-
Third rule of fight club:
-
Someone yells "Stop", goes limp, taps out,
the fight is over.
-
Fourth rule:
Only two guys to a fight.
-
Fifth rule:
one fight at a time, fellas.
-
[laughing]
-
Sixth rule:
No shirts, no shoes.
-
Seventh rule:
Fights will go on as long as they have to.
-
And, the eighth, and final rule:
-
If this is your first night at fight club,
you have to fight.
-
[yelling]

This kid from work, Ricky,
-
couldn't remember whether
-
you ordered
pens with blue ink or black
-
(crowd)
Come on, man!
-
but Ricky was a god
for ten minutes
-
when he trounced
the maitre d' of a local
-
food court.
[punch]
-
Sometimes all you could hear
-
were the flat, hard packing sounds
over the yelling
-
[loud punch, yelling]
-
or the wet choke when someone caught their
breath and sprayed.
-
(man fighting)
Stop!
-
You weren't alive anywhere
like you were there.
-
But fight club only exists
-
in the
hours between when
-
fight club starts and
when fight club ends.
-
Even if I could tell someone
they had a good fight...
-
I wouldn't be talking to the
same man.
-
Who you were in fight club
-
is not who you were
-
in the rest of the world.
-
A guy came to fight club for the
first time
-
his ass was a
wad of cookie dough.
-
After a few weeks,
-
he was carved out of wood.
-
If you could fight any celebrity,
-
who would you fight?
-
(Tyler)
Alive or dead?
-
(Jack)
Doesn't matter, who'd be tough?
-
(Tyler)
Hemingway.
-
You?
-
(Jack)
Shatner.
-
I'd fight William Shatner.
