So many threads with occam as final poster. Occam posts here to LEARN Not talk about the weather or make smart quips. Or be cool. All that is shit Occam cannot learn if no-one speaks. He can only learn if you speak. His posts are not ego driven..so all he wants is feedback to adjust his perspectve. He once was an athiest who was shown that athiesm is idiotic. Adjusted perspective. He once thought nations/ideologies could solve our woes. Till he realised that each must solve 'their woe' first. Then we all build a world we can be happy to bring our children into. One without woe Adjusted perspective. He was once a complete fool. Now he is just Mostly foolish Adjusted perspective. Occam
Yeah, I totally agree. The whole deal where you refer to yourself in the Third Person is off-putting. Its kinda fun for the first two or three times but then it has this peculiar effect of just killing off any intend I had to post a reply. Also, the Stanza thing is a little too much. Maybe would come off better without the 'Occam Perceives' stuff in with it.
*shrugs* There just isn't anything that's terribly interesting to talk about on these boards. We all know that each of us doesn't know. What else is there? Believe me, I wouldn't have it any other way, but still ...
What makes you think that you're capable of knowing? EDIT: Thats not a rhetorical attack, I really want to know your reasoning
To all who commented on the third person thing... [personal pronouns] The ignorant always attack how a thing is said. For they cannot comment on WHAT is said.. too hard. The strategy they employ is one that has existed for thousands of years.Try to make the speaker look silly. And what he says is silly? How simple can you be? Are you that ignorant? Just as those who told Einstein he would account for nothing. Because he was not born into the self styled elite. Just as the church tried to undermine galileo cause he was but a single voice. All who comment on a WAY a thing is said...are fools. The WAY something is said...has NO BEARING on the content of WHAT is said. You dont understand the content..so you attack the speaker personally The naive manipulators. The self seeking egotists. Those that seek power over others but never seek understanding. YES..Occam speaks in the 3rd person .. For a reason. Hicky and others know the reason. This one will not waste his time explaining it to you. You have not earned it. U want respect.? Act like a human being. Occam
Lying in a field thinks these people are not entirely serious. No one really gives a crap. They just think its wierd. Lying in a field says there are greater injustices in the world. Move on. Lying in a field. ps. lying in a field respects your style of speech
Oh yeh... U are are nice guy.. never wanted to undermine/insult anyone. Start talking with your brain.and not your ego. And occam will listen The fact you make any comment at all means YOU KNOW EXACTLY what you were doing. And want to make amends... Cool...start thinking. It's fun Occam
Good, don't ever let me see you dissin my path bitch. on a serious note, thank you. Currently very far off it at the moment. Existentially speaking I've walked far off the path, into a pub and started lamenting drunkenly at the bar...woe to humanity.
Maybe we know much, but understand little. Just as our eyes see all that is around us but our consciousness overlooks. At any rate, I'm with you on this one Occam.
Lyin in field Hey..dont you mean 'bee-atch' Gimme a high 6 Yah..woe to humanity.. love it.. but it SHITS ME as well [ too, also] It's the evil of heart that fucks it up... So many good people, then along comes a stalin. Occam
LiaF Ok Iosif vissarionovich Dzuhgashuvili [stalin] Aint here to speak for himself. But the records of his actions exist As do those of US forces that obliterate innocents, As do those of UK forces that oblitterate innocents As do those of HOW MANY OTHERS.. that do the same? Example The proposal to drop he first A BOMB in human history was to do it over tokyo bay. To scare the shit out of the japanese and end the war. That was vetoed.. Because. You can not know your power untill you see it unleashed. Nagasaki and Hiroshima Each hit by a different 'design' of bomb ['tall boy'..'fat man'] how convenient..two designs...two cities. [fat man as a mater of interest. being the weapon 'style' of the future] The spherical bomb core being logically the most potent. And efficient. leading to thermonukes and unlimmited yeild. This is just one example You want to hear about dresden[1945]..or mai lai[1968]? No..lets not speak of what stalin did. We were not there. And stalin personally resulted in the deaths of 30 million people We know this because 30 million people 'went away' while stalin ruled [between 1920 and his death in 1953] He loved his grand kids. He was a considerate husband. He killed more people than any other person in history. Hitler was nothing compared to stalin. An AMATURE. The 'holocaust' by hitlers hands killed 6 million jews. Stalin killed more. jewish people and every other peolpe that he imagined a threat. Why dont we hear about it.? Why is hitlers crimes so prominent in school curriculum but stalin is fobbed of as a some time friend of the ALLIES thus he gets out of killing 30 millions of human beings. cause stalin lived by ethics. One was. One murder is a tradjedy. a million is a statistic. These ethics fit western thought quite well. so lets not speak ill of stalin. Occam PS. to stall the fools who think this is a bitch session... Occam is german/russian by blood.
uuuuh, I know a few things about Staln. I have read Simon Sebag Montefiore's Biography though I remember very little. A troubled man who ruined many a life...please feel free to slander him. I was talking about another hipforums member, hence the er....
