"Every one of us feels we are the best person we know, and if you don't believe this you're either lying or there's something wrong with you." Exactly! That's what I'm saying. There has to be something wrong with me, obviously. Fuck it all anyway.

I'm not Texan, I just live here now, and this is a state full of idiots, but I've also been to Louisiana. I really don't think you have any legs. I am absolutely an asshole. I have no patience for stupidity or people or anything. I'm also not going to overlook the fact that you used succession instead of secession. I…

As a resident of Texas who is fully aware of the "retardedness" of Louisiana... I'm ashamed that they are better than Texas. I mean, Louisiana is like one step above mentally damaged. Texas is crazy, but it isn't dumb... entirely... :P

"Naturally, there are plenty of caveats. There's the eternal and obvious correlation/causation clause, but the researchers also point out that it's impossible to separate the effects of the anesthesia from the effects of the surgery itself."

Yes... in our hearts. In all our hearts. :)

Indeed. And Arrakis was always a stand in for the middle east. In fact the great worm is part of Arabian/Islamic myth. At the end of the world, a great worm will rise out of the desert and devour all the... etc.

... in the modern remake of Battlestar Galactica, Starbuck's call sign was Starbuck. Pfft! talk about unoriginal.

I will freely admit, I am a beginner, learning (I guess I'll always be learning), and I am very good at dealing with anger, insult, hate, impatience, etc with stoic philosophy, but I have a hard time (I currently struggle with) dealing with sadness or depression. But it's a lifetime journey, not a sprint.

You can't learn anything from this little stub of information they posted. You're making a conclusion based on incomplete data. The book they mentioned might actually be a good starting point and a really quick read. You'll see that it's a bit more extensive and less pointless than that.

Stiocism was developed by Zeno of Citium. Not a slave at all. A well to do who pursued philosophy. You're thinking of Epictetus, centuries later. One of the greatest later. He was a slave and suffered under immense nonsense (under the Roman empire). So he would be the perfect person to learn how to find a silver…

Wow, Sony. Now I don't want to buy your shit because I will forever think of Umbrella Corporation when I think of you. And to think, I used to feel that way about GE.

I might be following suit with the second hard drive option for my desktop. The only reason I don't use my linux desktop and laptop as much as my Windows laptop, is Zune. My WP7 device needs it, and it's so gorgeous that I can't really go back to other music players.

They promise to *deport* the vermin. Justin Bieber was in Canada and now plagues America. Perhaps him, Drake, and Celine Dion might be further deported to Mexico. What we've had so far hasn't worked. i'm down to try something else.

I'd like to visit this parallel world. *sigh*

Fate, perhaps even... the hand of GOD was behind its demise.

The Golden Compass

Wow. Metaphor much? I'm in.

Welcome to Dafuqistan.

I too recently partook of some mushrooms in the field. Why do you ask?

Dear Tapewormz,
