You are right...I have no clue what's what when I read watered down modern metaphysical psychology ripped right from classical grecco-roman and buddhist philosophy, in a now mutilated form. The Self-help and motivational genre is completely over my simple-minded head.

Cicero's angle: It's very common stoic philosophy written a lot about by Epictetus and various others. Except there is about 90 pages left out at minimum so it's inaccurate and specious, so as to follow a more modern christian slant.

Oh and you are ugly!!!

:p

what.....?* I'm confused* and ugly I guess

Reading that article has changed my view of the Dwellars who have offended me in the past; so I say bring it!. If you choose to bash me, I shall take it. I won't even try to defend myself cuz...well...there would be no point. :p

One of the last things Graham Chapman did before he died, was a college tour where he would encourage everyone in the audience to ruthlessly insult him for the first five minutes of the show.

I am starting to feel that Merc's compliments aren't compliments anymore. Back to the drawing-board....You know what? I'm just going to take it as a compliment anyway because I need one. Thanks Merc!!
:)

Oh my god wings would be so good right now. Damn. I'm starving. Merc just popping in to remind me that wings are at a restaurant next door...So close yet so far away. Oh jeez. I'm hungry...

Sky has never been ugly. (obvious fact)
:)
But for the sake of the thread I think you should be insulted. And I should be complimented. Just messin' around sky..just jokes.

oh goodie...I thought I mixed up wisdom with smarts. Some people can have both. Looks like you really do...oh and grace too! I am happy again. :)

two crazy chicks arguing is awesome.

thanks, cellar!

Cicero 03-24-2008 07:00 PM

Oh I get it...you are fantasizing about a cat-fight. I see....

Let's insult lj for the sake of the thread now.
:)
cock!

lumberjim 03-24-2008 07:03 PM

hardly an insult. cock is as cock does, after all. cat fights are pretty hot, tho......especially if the girls aren't *really* fighting.

lumberjim 03-24-2008 07:27 PM

well, how about a little slapntickle?

lookout123 03-26-2008 11:11 AM

is that like just the tip?

Urbane Guerrilla 03-27-2008 02:43 AM

Or failing that, a rerun of Doris Day in Calamity Jane.

That movie looks about as lesbian as Oklahoma looks gay. Really -- it's a lesbian wet dream and they keep their clothes on. Astounding.

It's a little more complex than the paragraph above. Sounds neat...but it isn't always the way to deal with a criticism.....

So... how do you feel about that?

Cicero 04-01-2008 08:54 PM

The point of this exercise isn't to talk about me. It's about you spudcon. How does that make you feel?
