It isn't working

 

[JUN]

Damn ! Doesn't matter. Proceed to feeling lonely.

 

[Cogwulf]

Damn ! Doesn't matter. Proceed to feeling lonely.

I've already been doing that for the past 4 years

 

[Toad]

Loneliness sucks monkey balls. U <----Tiny penis.

 

[Agent Intellect]

Embracing the nothingness inside one self dulls the loneliness.

Just a little.

 

[JUN]

I'm so ronery.

 

[Cogwulf]

We're all ronery

This has to be the most depressing thread I've ever made, let's post things that makes us feel less lonely...

[Kuu]

Well I thought the entire forum is a place for lonely loners....




I'll just sit in this corner and stare at the window all by myself...

Sometimes one can succeed in deluding oneself that the loneliness can be willed away...

 

[Inappropriate Behavior]

There is no lonliness as long as we have penguins

 

[echoplex]

Does it ever really end? How can you ever not be lonely?

 

[Kuu]

^ well if you consider epistemology, you can say that people can never ever truly know each other... only imperfectly, incompletely, fleetingly... loneliness is inherent in existance...

 

[echoplex]

Exactly, that's what I was thinking. But even when you take the "truly" out of the equation, it often seems quite hard to make a real connection with anyone. Reminds me of another depressing thread.

 

[JUN]

Now that's depressing.

 

[Cogwulf]

Being surrounded by people just makes me feel more lonely

 

[Wish]

Agreed. Come to think of it, I'm not really sure what would make me feel less lonely. I think maybe a lot of the feeling is just fabricated in our mind to try to qualify not being as social as others? I don't know..maybe it's because by being surrounded by people and by feeling so different than them, we feel we relate less and less to them? Eww that's a little too much feeling for my taste..

Hmm let's try to make this into an equation (where L=loneliness, N=number of people, and c=an alienation constant specific to each person)!

L = (c*N)^M

Where M is of course the time (in days) since we last took our medication.

 

[JUN]

Brilliantly equated.

What is the scale in which alienation is represented though ?

0~100 ?

So let's say, that the feeling of loneliness is infinite, oh, wait, the maximum feeling of loneliness one can have is the max world population. Or perhaps loneliness can also come from the lack of alien races, therefore becoming an infinite feeling of never ending alienation.

 

[Artifice Orisit]

I don't understand loneliness itself, being alone is quite enjoyable.

What bothers me is that sense of there being something more out there, when I'd sell my metaphorical soul for someone to share my time with, even if we were both mute it wouldn't matter, I just want a pair of sentient eyes to look into, a reaffirmation by consensus that reality is indeed real.

Hmm, you make an interesting point..

Let's say that this equation is an INTP-centric equation, seeing as E's would feel lonely with less people, so let's make the alienation constant on a scale of 1-infinity, where those closer to 1 would be the most comfortable in society and those approaching infinity would be paranoid schizophrenics and others with major personality disorders.

Oh man I never bothered to take into account the alien population. Uhm..maybe you could add a component dependent on A, A being the alien population at that instant in time. Soo the equation becomes:

L = (c*N)^M + cos(A)

Thus cos(A) can only possibly be -1 to 1 at any instant in time, because fuck aliens.

 

[Agent Intellect]

I might even put an addendum to the equation, stating that

L = (c*N)^M + cos(A)
x(D^2 + I + H)^B

Where D = the distance that said people are from you in space, with x as a function of ones awareness of said entities (it would be 1 if one was not aware that someone was near), since one does not have to be in the same room as someone for them to affect ones sense of loneliness - it's a force that can pass through solid objects. The loneliness decreases to 25% every time the distance between people id doubled.

I = imagination; if one is lost in their own reveries and ponderings, they are less aware of all of the other entities around them.

H = having headphones on. This allows one to block out all of the incessant external input that causes one to feel alone in their strangeness.

B = the level of inebriation one has attained (B for Booze!).

Wow AI for some reason that equation makes me want to shag you even though this isn't the 'hit on the previous poster' thread.

Ah you make an excellent addendum indeed, but I feel we should also take into account the affects of a marijuana high if we are to take into account inebriation.

Thus we can rewrite the equation as..


L = (c*N)^M + cos(A)
x(D^2 + I + H)^(B/b)

where little b (b for baked!) is how paranoid one is from smoking

EDIT: Though B != 0 and b != 0 for this to really work..so let's say that the minimum for each is 1

[Toad]

I feel so lonely today. What should I do?

 

[JUN]

Can't embed music damn.

 

[Toad]

The holidays are over. The fun had ceased. Everyone has gone home. I am empty once again. I kind of introvert am I? A pathetic one.

Happy 2010 guys.

Oh yes. Someone with just the same need and understanding.... And, of course, someone non-intrusive.

 

[Kuu]

I want to listen to the stupid song but the thing doesn't work...

and I'm miserably lonely
