Me thinking does not prove you exist. :chin:

You should all be banned for making me waste my time reading this thread.

But I am a nice person, so I will not demand the banning.

Just give me their heads on a silver plate. :cool:

I exist. — Waya

Prove it! :smirk:

How does one go about explaining this violation of one's own will in dreams, — Wallows

Why would you want to explain it, it was only a dream.

But some consider dreams to be the realization of actions that a person would like to perform but could not happen in real life. Sort of a fulfilling of unconscious desires.

Shit! I deleted 2 and added 2.

Next time I will try harder not to break them.

Or was that the start of another sentence?

Most of what passes for philosophy is best described as BS. — A Seagull

Who said that? :chin:

The philosopher that evacuated his bowels on the set, he shall eat it?

If it is closed all of the yokels will come to the lounge spewing gobbledygook all over the place where we come to relax.

For instance when kids bully another to the point of suicide, is that a matter of perception that the act is bad and some may perceive that as good? — Sherbert

So now we have a point of view, a perspective from which to perceive "good". Good in the moral sense is different from good in the tasty sense or bad for the environment sense.

In your example there are also several points of view, the bullies, the bullied and the other people that perceive the acts.

The bullies might think what they are doing is well deserved by the person they are bullying and think that it is OK to do it.
The person being bullied would probably think it was bad.
But a third party viewing individual acts or even several acts might not even think about it being bad. It might be perceived as normal quarrels between people or even as just plain stupidity being acted out.

It is only when specific details of a case are revealed that a proper judgement can be made.

Damn, now I am hungry again and its bed time.

That is why I think that lamb does not need to be spiced up, accompanied by a few things to contrast and highlight the flavor yes, but not over spiced up so that the flavor is corrupted(maybe that should be perverted).

Nothing makes good good.
It is just a matter of perception.

Lamb is not really a meat that I enjoy "spiced up", but with pepperoni as a contrasting element it works well. Charcoal broiled lamb with lemon and white pepper is OK, but not with chillipepper.

I have never tried eggplant on pizza, but I did try pizza made from bread fruit plant once. I have been trying to find the time to try making it myself one day because it was good.

Apart from the obvious fact that everything is goat , even lamb and pepperoni, I cannot think of any reason why it would be impossible to order a pizza that is not only all goat but that actually contains eatable goat. :chin:

By the way, does the pizza place do delivery down here in Central America? I have eaten lamb pizza but never goat. :wink:

This should be nominated for "Best Thread of the Year" :rofl:

But I would side with Baden on this. (Not that it means much)

I do little topic starting because, as Baden says, it takes a little effort. And I don't always have the time to create and manage them. I have been working on one for the past year almost and I hope I might finish it in December, if I can remember where I put it and what it is about.

Wallows, do as Baden says and think some more about it. Not wallow in misery about it.
I have faith in your ability to produce something good from this. After all, I think you are the first to come up with this idea.

"I feel stupid compared to many of you here"

So go ahead and prove your point by running away.

Everyone here has been made to look silly at sometime or other.

Supposedly you came here, like many of us, to learn. Running away will not help you to do that.

So the question is: what is your secret to a long and happy marriage? — ArguingWAristotleTiff

That's easy.
I always have the last word in everything.

Yes my love.

As you say my dear.

Yes I agree.

Has anyone one seen a short black and white film from the 1950's called "The priceless Pocket"?

I have been searching for it for some time but cannot find a copy of it anywhere.

And yet suffering can seem like an eternity — Pantagruel

Seeming and being are quite different. :wink:

No way, I just want your address so that I can add you to a mailing list that sends you thousands of emails everyday. :lol:

Oh how I miss Nadia / Natasha - what could have happened to her? (All those secretive emails and .......) — Daniel C

Just post your address on the line below and she will get in touch with you.

- Better never to be born than be compelled to informedly contemplate as a reality the prospect of your own forthcoming eternal annialation!

Better even pre-annialation than torment without limit. — Robert Lockhart

Sounds like someone is pissed off at mom and dad for bringing them into such a horrible world.

Don't worry, hell is in the head, or your work place if you picked the wrong career. And if you think you are going to jail for being a bad boy, it is not eternal 'cause you will not live that long. :chin:

Congrats.

Me and the missus have been together for almost thirty three years. And I can still remember the day I met her, I think. :wink:

But it cannot be what it is not.

I find this thread offensive to the colorblind. — Wallows

Get the mud out of your eyes.

:point: :up: :clap:

We are lucky then that those were not your last words. :wink:

Hey, wait a minute.

That guy is looking at TPF. you can see the reflection in his glasses.

I feel as though we have been violated.

Don't answer that Banno, I don't feel lucky. :rofl:

The purple is really nice. There's something celebratory to it. — StreetlightX

That is not what my mother said when I painted my bedroom with almost exactly this color when I was 15.
She did not appreciate the orange curtains either. :cool:

EH?

R.I.P Ginger.

Should be a different color every time you come to the forums or post, like the shout bow back at PF.

"... Not what the tongue touches, but what it forms, not lips and nipples, but nouns and verbs...." ~William Gass — 180 Proof

Getting hot around here! I prefer silence when lips and nipples are involved, Except for the moaning of course.

physician-assisted suicide — Ferzeo

No one would be able to justify helping someone die because their farcebook account did not see enough visits and likes. As we have seen over the past few years a lot of teenagers are doing just that though, killing themselves because of bullying or lack of interest from the social site members.

But to just sit back and say to someone whose body is literally killing them and the pain they suffer is unbearable that they do not have the right to die when they want to is disgusting.
How can anyone decide for someone else when enough is enough.

A friend of mine killed himself a few years because of cancer eating away at his body, a bullet to the head ended his pain. But the family had to deal with the mess and shame of it all. Everyone could have had a reasonable end to the situation if he had been allowed to end his own life when he considered it to be too much trouble to keep on living.

As an adult, one's life is one's own to do with as one wants in life. No one rushes after you to tell you that you are making mistakes and that you should do this and not that, unless you spend a lot of time watching the news. You are expected to get on with your life and do what is necessary to be able to live it decently.
So why do so many people think that they have the right to stick their nose into other people's lives and deaths?

Those who aspire to greatness probably shouldn't spend their time arguing over new names for an internet philosophy forum. — T Clark

Yes sir, you are right about that. They should just go ahead and rename. :cool:

I have been trying to get time to read another of his books for some time now. I have a few days off work this week so maybe I will get lucky.
