1.) "'Hey, I got a flit for you,' I told him. 'At the end of the bar. Don't look now. I've been saving him for ya." / "'Very funny,' he said. 'Same old Caulfield. When are you going to grow up?'" (144)
(!!) and then he continues trying to get Luce to talk about sex but he won't.
2.) I appreciated that Holden calls Luce out when he says his former girlfriend is "probably the whore of New Hampshire" (145). Really relevant given our discussions about whether or not Holden is a misogynist.
I think more than anything he's very black and white about things. There's that section in the beginning of Ch. 17 where he talks about girls & boys; I think that's relevant to this. And then of course how he views "childhood" vs "adulthood." And his fear of "flits." We could have a whole discussion about that one. Etc.
