catch 22. its a satire set in late WW2. Its about this guy Yossarian who’se in teh US air force. basically this is the catch 22: if you are insane, you can get out of your service. if you fly a mission, you must be insane. but the second you said you were insane and didnt wat to fly, that would make you sane. if you were sane, you had to go up and fly. so you flew them, therefore were crazy and didnt have to, but if you didnt want to, you were sane, so you had to…its confusing, but sooo good
