That's the stupidest thing you've said: but your buddies find it funny so maybe I'm missing something.

It wouldn't be as funny if they didn't make you give them little green paper rectangles.

No.

Oh, yes.

I can live with that.

Can you?

Shit, I wouldn't have it any other way. It's ALL about the cheap laughs, Henry. Laugh until your guts bleed. Laugh until the people around you get nervous. Laugh until they slam the door shut and discuss your long term treatment options with your loved ones. Laugh until you just can't stop screaming.

I apologize if I have offended you on some weird religious level, but the fact is that the "government" is a social fiction. So is "America". So is the "money" you humans worship. Neither one is real, but humans run around dying for both, each and every day.

It would be sad, if it wasn't so funny.

I prefer to 'do'.

They are not mutually exclusive concepts. I think the miscommunication here is that you wish to help the humans, and I do not. Humans are best left to their own devices, as they tend to kill anyone who tries to help them (Jesus, Gandhi, MLK, etc).

So while we both agree that action is desirable, I prefer to increase the general level of laughs. Well, I mean laughs for me.

After all, LMNO's Dictum always applies: The imposition of order creates a corresponding and greater level of disorder.

henry quirk 09-24-2009 04:16 PM

"...you wish to help the humans..."

HA!

Where did you get that idea?

There are folks whom I love (a small number)...for them: everything.

There are folks who are strangers (most folks)...for them: certain things, as I choose, depending on circumstance.

There are folks who are my enemies (a small number)...for them: nothing, or, the knife.

You claim to hate humanity. A waste of a valuable resource...

#

"Humans are best left to their own devices"

Yep.

#

"...action is desirable..."

My action for myself and for those whom I choose to involve myself with.

#

"I prefer to increase the general level of laughs"

As you like...as you will.

Hate is a renewable resource.

henry quirk 09-24-2009 04:29 PM

Hate is a renewable resource
 
HA!

And still far too precious to spew all over the place like so much jizz.

Hate is cold...it focuses and hones. It's a tool. It has its uses, but never as a catch-all.

"the "government" is a social fiction. So is "America". So is the "money" you humans worship."

Indeed! Fictions...great, and sometimes useful, fictions.

If you recognize this then the fictions become tools. if you can't recognize this: then you are the tool (multiple meaning there...HA!).

Perhaps for humans. Me, I'm like Jesus, only hateful and bitter.

Only for hoodwinking pesky humans.

I can have it both ways.

henry quirk 09-24-2009 04:39 PM

I can have it both ways.
 
No, you can't.

Self-possession is not a spectrum. You own 'you', or, you're owned.

There's no middle ground.

And: insofar as I can tell, you're as human as me...get used to it. ;)

#

But: please, TGRR, do as you will and like...think as you will and like.

Makes no difference to me... ;)

DanaC 09-24-2009 04:45 PM

@ henry: oh I is all about the coffee and frolicks!

Balls. Humans these days are indistinguishable from bad 1980s sitcoms.

In MY fucking day, we KNEW how to swear, drink, get the clap, rock n roll, and wake up in a crab-infested whorehouse with no clothes, money, or even memory, crusted in our own filth with a needle still in our arm and the electric buzz of acid still running up and down our spines, with hairy ass chlamydia bacillia the size of fucking PANCAKES oozing out of our arses and chewing holes in the linoleum.

These kids? HAH! They puke and they think they partied. Shit, we puked BEFORE we partied, just to limber up!

THESE MONKEYS DO NOT NOW, NOR WILL YOU EVER, UNDERSTAND THE LOST HIGHWAY!

grumble, grumble, fucking kids, grumble

Fuck no. I've always been a Rolling Stones kinda guy.

Clodfobble 09-24-2009 05:08 PM

I've just noticed how much that one Monkee on the left looks like a skinny Jack Black.


They should totally make a modern Monkees movie. Clockwise from the top: Edward Norton, Matthew McConaughy, Toby Maguire, Jack Black.
