    It is very zen to provoke. It is also very zen to let it be.
    This time I wanted to provoke to make the masses think. Tomorrow I will rest and just smile at the shape of the world.

    Or for those who do not read between the lines: I don't take many things serious, least of all myself. But I do try to be the devil's advocate. Or some other godlike being.

    Pff. Don't worry about me reading between the lines.

    I had you pegged a long time ago. You're my sort of fellow. [​IMG]

    But, precisely because of that, I'll go on with my sig for now. Until I delete it out of my own volatility.

    P.S. I was referring to zen_arcade. Who is my online hero alongside you, hotwater, red, and I few others. I love my idols.

    Im fed up with this thread. I almost escaped, but couldnt. I dont think it is intellectual at all. I think most people consider the obsession of esthetics in our human life, but to live with guilt, and guilt others, isnt intellectual. to say someone is fighting the good fight when they couldnt go one line without saying 'btw i am hot', its sooo off kilter. oh god is it ever off.

    Baby, you go right on getting the attention you deserve.

    I stand accused. I treat people differently depending on their looks. Not inhumanely I hope. [​IMG]

    I still think you are Miss Vain and you thrive on showing yourself here.
    No judgement. If you want to do that, you must most definately keep on doing that.

    Aww. :hug:

    Even though I got a pic in my gallery? Gosh do I feel insecure and in need of validation.

    I would respect you more if you would delete it.

    And when your pictures were in your gallery you were being vain?

    I can see that and I agree.

    if I stopped liking people because they have pics in their gallery, I'd like almost no one.
    which is the case anyway.

    I don't think Cate is Ms. Vain. She was the first one to remove her pictures from her gallery. She can't help it if she's beautiful. :)

    I think you are making very good people feel very bad, and for what? Because they have pictures of themselves in their gallery? If we applied these standards to real life, we'd judge people for having faces (nice ones, at that, hmmph!). Or make them wear bags on their heads. Is that what you want to do bird?

    Same Ang. I like myself the way I am and I am excited to keep growing the way I am. I like you the way you are Angela.

    Edit: And thank you Wandering Soul. Nice observation ;)
