torn asunder

lemme goes to the pub - motorhead!

so to paraphrase, you're asking, "should we always be open and honest about our thoughts/feelings/beliefs to others", is this correct?

linky-loos!?!?

better yeet, are you familiar with the "blind men and the elephant" story/parable?

in standard math, you're correct, but maybe there's a set of physics/dimensions in which that wouldn't necessarily be the case. (a cube has 6-sides, but if you try to prove it/show it on a piece of paper, you can't... 2-d can't show 3-d detail.) hell, even light "particles" aren't necessarily particles - light can be a wave, depending on how you test it. *it's entirely dependant upon the person viewing the light, how they see it!* or how about this - try to tell me the exact mass *and* location-direction of any particle. you can't, because the simple act of viewing it, *changes the particle*, so it's no longer what it was when you set out to define *the truth* about it... on a simpler note, let's say you run over a squirrel with your car. you say it was an accident, the guy in his yard says it was intentional, and the squirrel's family claims it was suicide! (yeah, i'm goofin, but trying to make a point.) how about this - you own a green car. is it green? maybe you think so, but i see it as more of a blue, and maybe someone else can't even tell( red-green color blind) now, is your car green to the color-blind person? might be, might be red - your truth is therefore not his truth. you can tell him all you want that it's green, but he can't see that. does that make any more sense?

i disagree - the truth is entirely based on one's perception, and will inherently vary a bit by person. there can be no "absolutel truth", in my opinion, because we're not omnipotent - we don't/can't know everything. now, we can agree on the fact that currently, in the universe as we know it, [such&such] generally happens, and we accept it as truth... that in no way means it is, just that we all agree to say it is. did that make any sense!?

brown derby jump - cherry poppin' daddies! (what!?)

i might suggest making the galleries member-only, because i've seen a lot of people on there taking up lots of space, who aren't on the dgn board... but yeah, i could see them all!

read this, troy!

HA! i remember that name!!

i'm sorry, i know this thread is for random babblings, but how many f**king random alternating-line story threads do you two need?

we do what we know we do not what we know not that is why we do

i've lost my mojo poetry now hides from me this makes me so sad...

you don't need them to go to City!! :peanutbutterjellytime

ha!! beat me to it!!

i guess next time, we'll just leave the damn board down...

taken from the "this is really creepy" thread in the creations forum! (and taken a bit out of context, but that's why it's funny!!)

Your EQ is 153 50 or less: Thanks for answering honestly. Now get yourself a shrink, quick! 51-70: When it comes to understanding human emotions, you'd have better luck understanding Chinese. 71-90: You've got more emotional intelligence than the average frat boy. Barely. 91-110: You're average. It's easy to predict how you'll react to things. But anyone could have guessed that. 111-130: You usually have it going on emotionally, but roadblocks tend to land you on your butt. 131-150: You are remarkable when it comes to relating with others. Only the biggest losers get under your skin. 150+: Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar.

Plain Truth who are you and who am i except a couple of people wasting lots of time worrying about the future forever asking why some people go on living while others die before their time yet there's never been a reason whatever is is right if only just because it's much too big to fight like the painter who is way ahead or worse still far behind you only punch yourself out when you start swinging blind these are the things too often gone unsaid these are the things keep you better off than dead these are the things that keep running through your head waa oooo these are the things too often gone unsaid who am i and who are you except a couple of people with nothing else to do but follow vain obsessions making gestures towards the truth while trying to ignore it when it's convenient to the symbols we believe in sometimes turn inside out reshaping each dimension we're so sure about dreams get so frustrated fantasies turn pranks a simple ounce of common sense is money in the bank these are the things too often gone unsaid these are the things keep you better off than dead these are the things that keep running through your head these are the things too often gone unsaid - Devo
