Always feared that our family had it's roots in France.
The time period seems right.
The French are good..even if they are arrogant stuck up cunts!
Plus we can cook...that's always a crowd pleaser!

No, got that from China. Still, the French weren't
renowned for cooking, til after the invasion period.
The Italians, on the other hand, were pretty well
known for everything. Even Sicily was well-regarded.

yeah, I think you'll find though that they have only just recently proven that the Italians invented the noodle..ie; spaghetti.

Maybe I'm biased.
But I think it's correct and the Chinese were pissed off.

Winding down from spammishness.

How much of what you post do you actually believe to be truthful?


Do you prefer to give bullshit responses to honest answers?

Oh sure, pick on me when I'm tired.

1.
I think that I believe most of what I post,
at the time that I post it. It's usually pretty
close to the truth though - there aren't
huge changes in my world view.

But, the world does leave traces of
completely anomalous events from
earlier perceptions, and I can't be
certain that some of these aren't
spilling over into my thinking.

Now and then, I do post purely
silly things, but I think that it's
pretty obvious to most of us
that these aren't intended.
A great deal of what I write is
an attempt to nail down some of
what I'm thinking, in such a way
that it doesn't fade away as so
many things do. I don't expect to
keep it for long, but a few months
is nice, now and then. 

2. I don't know. The silly shit is a lot
easier than trying to put my actual
thunks into words - as they tend to
flit around ephemerally. I'd imagine that
others prefer the bullshit to when I try
and define what I'm thinking, from
comments by McJ, especially. But, I
need more than just play, and though
it hurts sometimes to investigate my
thoughts, it probably does me some
kind of good.

As to the unasked but obvious question,
yes, I am not at all certain that I am sane.
But, there are times when it feels like I'm
on the verge of discovering something so
completely vital, that sanity becomes a
moot point. Especially when I'm considering
new Mathematical or Logical models. But, there
is something clearly lacking from the manner in
which we are used to thinking, which makes
it difficult to pass through to newer and more
perfect possibilities.

Interesting answer,(btw I wasn't picking on you, but then I'm sure you like the attention).

Personally I view this insane part of your personality as a bit of an act, but I guess only you know just how much of it is an act and how much of it is real.  Perhaps I just think that if you were truly insane you wouldn't know it, I know there are times when I feel that I must be at least half insane, but I think that recognising the insanity in your personality means you're not likely to actually be insane.


Another question for you:  Is there something that you would like to achieve in your life?

Yeah. I'm a whore for it. But I am very tired. Might effect my answers.

Personally I view this insane part of your personality as a bit of an act, but I guess only you know just how much of it is an act and how much of it is real.  Perhaps I just think that if you were truly insane you wouldn't know it, I know there are times when I feel that I must be at least half insane, but I think that recognising the insanity in your personality means you're not likely to actually be insane.


   Maybe. I don't know if there's anything real under me at all.
   Certainly, I feel that way about emotions. But, that's not right,
   as I feel pain, just thinking about it. At one point, when I was
   in college, one of my first friends showed me the power of
   seeming insanely mad. I had many anger problems before,
   but, learned that by acting angry, one could avoid
   actually slipping into a rage. Sometimes though, the acting
   slides into the actuality. The good feeling of being loved and
   wanted, leads to the same.

   This is all a roundabout way of saying maybe the insanity is
   an act, maybe it's not. I've not been able to tell the difference.
   I believe in things that standard logic tells me are impossible,
   or that seem mere phantasies. Yet, I am highly skeptical of them,
   at the same time - realizing their weaknesses. Catholic priests often
   go through 'crises of faith' but this is almost always the case for me.
   Still, I find that the answers available through purely logical thought
   are so hopeless, that I simply cannot accept them.

   (luckily this post is too long for McJ to bother with)  :laugh:

Another question for you:  Is there something that you would like to achieve in your life?

There have (and still are I guess) lots of things. Some of them contradictory.

1. Destruction of all that is. But I must be certain. I might settle for
    all humanity, or even just myself, if it's done right.

2. Absolute control over the universe, by force of will.

3. Finding lovers who stay with me forever, and with whom
    the happiness and joy which I had with my wife is surpassed.

4. Being free of the mutable future.

5. Not ever having to work or do anything once again.

6. Getting a life where I can at least LOOK at my games again.

7. Falling in love with an abstraction, to the extent that I can
   devote myself to understanding and carving out new fields of
   thought (this one seems less likely than it once did - it was my
   primary hope not long ago - so it has fallen low on my list).

8. Falling in love with some other form of work, so that I can
    support myself and drown in a pathetic 'normal' life.

9. Leading some sort of violent or political action, or helping
   those in need.

Well, that huge spamming spree is not
how I usually am. But, it was damned
fun. Somehow, I doubt that most others
don't get quite that pleasure. Don't know
though. It was just pure rush.

So just how much Meth were you on then??

None. I was high on spamming.
