This is my birthday thread everyone stop going off topic and pay attention to me

Very good. Obviously talented and understand the medium. Carry on with it.

:cat::nazi: ...maybe maybe not. Right now Gopher is president I think, things are looking democratic and totally not fascist.

Oh I remember mentions ! They stopped just after I arrived !! How excitement ! :love::love::love::love::hearts::hearts::hearts::hearts::matrix:

Fellow pussy cat with machine gun, I am kitler nice to meet. Prrrrrrrr.

You sound a lot like the entp I know. J and P don’t make much sense to me apart from denoting the order of the functions that compose the type. You’ve got that playful optimistic Ne thing going. If you’re interested in your type look at cognitive functions and introspect. ENTP has a function...

No angsty teens lol. I would have “liked” this post. :horseshit:

So are we going to discuss the “like” feature or will we all just pretend it’s not there I’m scared to use it because it feels uncool lol

It feels familiar yet smoother. It’s beautiful :’) Thank you.:alicemknits:

Stevie Smith; Not waving but drowning Nobody heard him, the dead man, But still he lay moaning: I was much further out than you thought And not waving but drowning. Poor chap, he always loved larking And now he’s dead It must have been too cold for him his heart gave way, They said...

The Tyger BY WILLIAM BLAKE Tyger Tyger, burning bright, In the forests of the night; What immortal hand or eye, Could frame thy fearful symmetry? In what distant deeps or skies. Burnt the fire of thine eyes? On what wings dare he aspire? What the hand, dare seize the fire...

Also the questionnaire does not control for common causes, for example, I have the growing intuition right now that people who use dating websites tend to be more superficial than average in their relationship choices which would skew the results further. How about comparative statistics between...

Pretty self explanatory and yet mysterious at the same time as is always the case with Dickinson. She wasn’t really writing for an audience usually, just for herself. Calvary is suffering. I take the poem to mean in essence that you will be miserable if you don’t have faith in the “truth” of...

Emily Dickinson, untitled. That I did always love, I bring thee proof: That till I loved I did not love enough. That I shall love alway, I offer thee That love is life, And life hath immortality. This, dost thou doubt, sweet? Then have I Nothing to...

Wat. Can you explain a bit more.

The first poem by Wordsworth is about his girlfriend who died, he is contemplating how she seemed eternal when they were lovers, but now she has died she will disintegrate and join nature and be rolled around in the earth instead of having her own motion, her motion was her essence and life...

Lesson 2, lord Byron. CLXXIII. "She walks in beauty” SHE walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies, And all that's best of dark and bright Meets in her aspect and her eyes; Thus mellow'd to that tender light 5 Which Heaven to gaudy day...

I take illegal drugs on rare occasions, and smoke inside places I shouldn’t. Like on the underground. That’s about it. When I was more struggling I perfected a really elaborate technique to not pay for metro tickets after noticing they don’t work and have to be changed when you leave them next...

No, I am arguing that saying as you stated that it is the principle factor in mate choice and that people are fundamentally superficial is wrong. Obviously if you give a questionnaire asking people “would you rather have 100 dollars or 20 dollars” no one will be different. It’s rational choice...

@Yourmother have fun picking out superficial normies who correlate with your theory to date until you reach your holy grail of 100 fucks before...Something happens? What is it? serial sex nirvana ? Thumbs up dude, we all have our goals I guess. :D Yeah my tone is salty, we will both get over it...

Yes, it is beautiful. I know you are not a poetry guy. This is why I posted it. What would you say it is about ? I shall post another one tomorrow.

I am not married and we are still struggling students. I know self confidence is hard, so ? It’s not ressources or status, ergo your ´materialistic’ reduction is false and does not apply universally. Also self confidence is a universally desirable trait across gender you will find I think, like...

@Yourmother My loved person has neither status nor wealth and unless a career in philosophy suddenly starts making people millionaires in the future I do not foresee the wealth and the status. I am with him because I can't talk to anyone else in such depth about things, (and also the sex is...

Introduction to romantic poetry, lesson 1. A Slumber did my Spirit Seal By William Wordsworth...

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Maximise the good.

Yourmother sounds like he needs a good dose of romantic poetry or something

I like the main style but I’m not so much of a fan of the genral layout with the videos at the top and such, I like how minimalist the current one looks, with just text. But I guess you can’t have everything.

Although it sounds all cool, futuristic and cyberpunk, would paying in ether not be (pardon my French ) le pain in le ass for Ragnar when he has to pay whoever to port the forum ? Tbh I just don’t know :phear: let us wait for a more competent minion than myself to show themselves and answer...

Dear citizens of this forum, as many of you have noticed the outdated software of this place has been causing a myriad of problems such as popups and functionalities going amiss, which is why we will be porting the forum asap (so no posts will be lost as I understand it). The great Ragnar...

A lurker has revealed themselves! We will be moving soon ish, if you were lurking you may have noticed the increase in technical problems, which means that new members were not posting too much.

Could it just be a kind of self consciousness then, as in you are not entering a flow state when you speak which makes one less efficient ? I find I am more verbally fluent when I am socially at ease. Also it could just mean you are choosing your words carefully, a kind of precaution, which is...

It’s the functional mechanism of avoidance to a stimuli. That and some weird voodoo internal subjective qualia going with it that seems non functional. But we don’t talk about that part it annoys people because it’s mysterious and not observable by anyone except the individual experiencing.

I feel like it’s a youth thing, ur brain is not yet wired correctly :D (if you are young, others just ignore me Xd)

Yah he has total troll face too haha

I am aware of Popper and that theories are tested out through deduction and crucial experiments and all that, my statement that most of science is inductive is merely true on the most general level, as in, you first need to observe the regularity to make the predictions and create the the theory...

Gimme carribean literature, ur favorite. Stories or poems.

Abduction takes this form : You hear a sound, it could be aliens or it could be your neighbor coming home, most likely its the neighbor. Or I see a person looking at a book -> Most likely they are reading it, not falling in love with it and staring amorously into its soul. It’s an...

I think I can answer this actually AK. (Or help anyway) It sounds like he is referencing the problem of induction (was this the word ? ) laid out by philosopher David Hume (Not Chinese but Scottish :) ) however it is possible that in epistemology eastern philosophers have their own theorizing...

:confused: Wanted : kamikaze lady

Re: My dating website profile Also I would like to point out that your advice was based on what one female told you, from which you extracted a generalization. So you are in appearance cherry picking yourself that which confirms what you wish to be true (in this case that one woman instead of...

Re: My dating website profile Oh I really can’t be bothered with another gender debate, or biology/culture explanations that are so complex to disentangle that no one really knows what they are on about. women don’t want to get their asses grabbed or pressured into sex, men don’t want to be...

Re: My dating website profile So Jenny is just protecting her own self interests and instinctively protecting her own sexual selection power and value when she gives this advice on a forum lmao ? Man what a conniving manipulative bunch we all are. Well I think you’re just protecting your own...

I find this highly rational approach to dating using statistics and data and success rates coupled with marketing of the self on a social media platform highly dehumanizing and a massive turn off. Would certainly not date someone talking like this in their OKcupid profile XDDD. Don’t mind me...

^ Wise accurate honest analysis full of common sense (as usual, A* grade XD)

Well I did so the problem is not in fact so much the length but the lack of direction, and the self repeating ^^ I’m not sure how to provide input of any kind. I’ve not read any Caribbean littérature, I would certainly like to. What would you recommend ?

Reason is just efficiency at executing tasks, emotions drive you whether you like it or not. Any goal you set yourself including living “rationally” will be value and emotion based. U are animal like the rest of animals, rational human being. David Hume F the world

Where at any point do you see me saying that I don’t think it’s mechanistically reduceable to a cocktail of chemicals BurnedOut ? :p I know my tone is religious but if u look at my words (albeit not purely rational) nowhere do I say this or talk of transcendence. My point is rather that it’s an...

Don't knock 50 shades of gray its comedic value is off the scales http://www.digitalspy.com/movies/fifty-shades-of-grey/feature/a512275/50-shades-of-grey-23-funniest-quotes-from-el-jamess-novel/...

The time travel one is wicked. She's a clever writer with plonky prose. The dialogue is good. It's funny. The world is rich. The way the story is put together is elegant, Chekov's gun. If you had the choice given to you, you would never be like "I don't want to be a wizard, I'll stay muggle...
