30 Name: A Panda : 1993-09-5370 01:51

Look at it this way.

On most browsers, you can bring up your browsing history by pressing Control-H. (No, this is not going to become a discussion of werecows.) On Firefox, this brings up a sidebar that shows up on the left side of the window. If you put your mouse over the edge of the sidebar, the cursor will turn into a different kind of arrow. By clicking and dragging it, you can move the edge of the sidebar back and forth. You are, to put it another way, manipulating the border between the normal window and the history window. By moving the mouse, you can increase the portion of the window devoted to either part. In a more extreme view of this situation, you're increasing or decreasing the amount of existence the sidebar has.

Now, let's apply this idea to something more abstract. Look out your window. If you don't live in a highly urbanized area, you should be able to see the horizon. Think of this as the border between the land and the sky. The land and sky are obviously distinguishable thanks to this boundary. Now, if you were to "drag" the sash between the sky and the land, or to manipulate the border between land and sky, you would end up causing the sky to become larger and the land to become smaller, or vice versa. An effect of this might be to cause something that was just on the ground to suddenly be hundreds of feet in the air. Truly a frightening situation to be in. So, look at it this way - manipulating the border between two physical things shifts whatever balance there is in the interaction between those things. Alternatively, by manipulating the border between two things, you can change the manner in which they exist.

Still, this isn't that abstract, since it's still dealing with real things in the real world. Many believe that in this world, there are those things that are true, and those that obviously aren't. This divides reality into two extremes: truth and falsehood. But, since we have two extremes, logically one can imagine a boundary between those two extremes - the border between truth and lies. If one were to manipulate this border, suddenly things that were pure fantasy (flying pigs, for the sake of argument) have become reality - or things from reality have ceased to exist. This is how Yukari is said to have invaded the moon - by manipulating the border between truth and lies, as applied to the reflection of the moon on a pond, she was able to make the reflection of the moon into a manifestation of the actual moon, and so send her youkai army onto it. This is what's truly amazing about Yukari's power - the ability to manipulate the border between completely abstract concepts allows her to fundamentally change reality as we know it (at least in terms of two abstract concepts).

I believe the true question (let us asume for the sake

of this document such question exists) is not whether one has 'forgot to think'; But whether he can post them here or not.

If for some reason you disagree and have other thoughts on

this matter, please elaborate them thoroughly. You have the
most of my attention, quite an accomplishment if you take into
account my position and perhaps my animosity against slow-witters.

Please excuse me for my bold statements on this matter, not

the best of my manners.

They do this slowly. Cute characters, sometimes ones from your childhood, at first hugging and kissing each other. But later step-by-step content gets closer to R-18 (adult art).
When their prey reaches the point where one enjoys adult art, furries throw in some fetishes: macro, baby, vore etc. Hopefully, I hate any of these.
I wish for powers to defeat furry addiction and return to the normal life!

Anyways, >>74, please listen to me. Not that itfs really related to this thread, of course.
I wrote an essay the other day. You know, for English. Anyways it was pretty good and I got 150% for it.
And then, I looked at the paper of the hipster kid sitting next to me. He had a 80% and 20 more for extra credit..
Oh, the stupidity. That idiot.
Hey you, donft do extra credit because it's 20% more, fool.
Itfs only 20%. T-W-E-N-T-Y P-E-R-C-E-N-T.
Therefre even entire stacks of extra credit papers here. 15 papers, all hoping to get some measly extra credit, huh? How fucking nice.
gAlright, that just makes me a better student!h God I canft bear to watch.
You people, Ifll give you 20% extra credit to write a better paper.
English class should be a bloody place.
That tense atmosphere, where two guys on opposite sides of the classroom can be sitting there looking at each other funny all day long, and then all of a sudden just start debating,
the stab-or-be-stabbed mentality, thatfs whatfs great about this place.
Women and children should screw off and stay home.
Anyways, I was about to start writing, and then the bastard beside me goes gCan I do another one, for 20% more credit?h
I was like, gWho in the world needs that much extra credit, you moron?h
I want to ask him, gDo you REALLY think it will make you a better student?h
I want to interrogate him. I want to interrogate him for roughly an hour.
gAre you seriously gonna turn that in? I donft think you are. I bet you just wanted to say eextra creditf out loud while breathing through your mouth, you dumb fuck.h
Coming from an English veteran such as myself, the latest trend among us vets is this: writing eloquent stories.
Thatfs right, eloquent stories. This is the vetfs way of writing.
When you get gextra credith, that means youfre not going to get a ton of credit. But instead you get a SHITLOAD of respect. But on the other hand, the price is a tad higher. This is the key.
But you stay up all night writing it. And then, itfs marvelous. This is unbeatable.
However, if you write this then therefs the danger that youfll be marked by the professors from next time on. Like the next time you walk in there, all the staff are gonna be like gHoly shit itfs that dude who wrote that mind-blastingly brilliant story the other week.h Itfs a double-edged sword.
I canft recommend it to amateurs.
What this all really means, though, is that you, >>74, should just stick with the persuasive essays.

Well, I research the LISP-effect for a long time.

What is the LISP effect?
It is an excessive use of closing parentheses at the end of any sentence in email, IMs, posts. Something like "hi) how r u?))" I think this is an aftermath of LISP popularity among elder generations. Every forgotten closing parethesis returns in every message written by young people.
Word filters are not effective in this case. The only possible way to protect oneself from them is to isolate oneself from the society.

I've stopped liking things "ironically". I've also abandoned cynicism, political and otherwise. It's given me a new kind of clarity in judgment. Aesthetic experiences seem more profound.
It wasn't easy (and I'm still weeding out this tired, scared cynic in me), but I can recommend it to anyone. I guess that's all.

97 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-5661 17:00

I have thought long and hard about my life, scavenging through life's constant lows, wondering when I would come to a peak, or at least a plateau. Then the new year came, and everything seemed to be going excellent; I found someone to love (and be loved by), my course at uni was going extremely well, I found 10p on the floor one day, got a few gigs lined up for my band etc.
And for a while I was... happy... for the first time in a very long time... I thought the days of despair and doubt were done with, but I've felt it creeping up again the past few days, despite everything going so well in my life now. In fact I've always been pretty well off, things have always seemed to go my way, I've never been able to understand what my problem is. Still I wake up wanting to blow my head off, even when I wake up in the arms of my love.

98 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-5662 03:13

Have you read your SICP today?

99 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-5662 15:23

I think I came to accept death yesterday. I had always feared it. As harsh or painful or tedious or boring as life can be, it is always in my mind better than the alternative. So I would wonder, early in the morning when I was still awake but had exhausted everything else I could think about, what the world would be like after me. If I would leave important things unfinished. If I would see a bright like or a deep blackness when I go. If I would see anything after that. It terrified me. But I was thinking, yesterday, about the idea of a Psychopomp. I am not a religious person. But for some reason the idea of some kindly, or even professionally indifferent, phantom standing before me and showing me where I must go is incredibly comforting. There is no choice to be made about it. There is no room for mistakes. It seems entirely contrary to my nature, but if I can believe that such a creature does exist (it doesn't need to be a supernatural being, it could be an EMT, or a brother, or a lover [if a humble DQN such as me will ever know such a thing]), I think I can accept finality.

100 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-5664 11:44

i think you're on a good way, >>99-san. Accepting finality is one of the biggest burdens a human being must overcome.

I spent a whole day thinking and i came to the conclusion that i am simply hungry.

Why is it that protests always attract so many whiny faggots?

102 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-5666 16:07

I have thought about this for a couple of weeks, but it is related to >>101
Even if I agree with the causes they are fighting for, as soon as they try to make a fuss I'm immediately inclined to mock them just to spite them. There was a demonstration against herbal essences in my town centre not long ago, and while I think animal testing is kinda cruel, it has been helpful in many aspects of research for helping humans. In any case, the fuss they made just made me want to slash their big inflatable herbal essences bottle (with unfunny slogans) and then squirt shampoo in their eyes.

103 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-5667 00:51

True. There's no cause so noble that it won't attract fuckheads.

My grandfather died yesterday and I'll admit, I cried some. But to be honest it was never really for him. I did it out of sympathy for people, which amounted just to pressure in my sinuses; the only thing that set me over the edge was thinking that someone I cared about might die one day.

108 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-5678 11:19

It's been a few months, at least, since I've posted in a [Profound] thread like this. Of course, not all of it was spent thinking... If I'd spent my time doing that, I probably wouldn't be here now!

I've reluctantly come to the conclusion that the reason Palestinians are treated so badly is because they're rotten neighbors.

110 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-5682 19:47

There's been quite a few situations in my life where if it was the Truman Show, the audience would be thinking, "Oh god he's trying to kill himself!" yet I have never managed to go the whole way. None of them have ever been serious suicide attempts, I guess I just like to go to the edge and look over and see what's over it. But I've been thinking how, there's been a few of them I'm surprised I stayed conscious, never mind alive. Entire box of painkillers? A wee bit dizzy. Jumping in front of a car? Car swerves and I just rip my hand up. Cutting open an artery? A strangely small amount of blood.

The conclusion which seems most likely to me is that I am blessed, and I must have some kind of purpose in life. Well, I don't believe in a higher being or an afterlife or anything, so fuck that.

111 Name: ( ˃ ヮ˂) : 1993-09-5685 00:51

I think I get too attached, too quickly. There's been times where I've been put off going out with a girl, purely on the basis that if we got married and she took my name, it wouldn't roll off the tongue very easily.
And I'm often already thinking of baby names, like, two weeks into a new relationship, visualising the big house we'd live in with our children and pets.

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α- After having seen what great light lies yonder - the inevitable luminescence of lofty thought - I feel it utterly impossible to resume the tedium of what mundane deeds and duties we as a species must undertake in order to secure the subsistence of the crippled, solipsist social structure unwittingly brought upon ourselves through centuries of corrupt, capitalist, corporate corrugation. Life, as we know it, is not a thing to be envied. At best it is but a system of arbitrary, exchange-based processes multiplied endlessly with no clear goal in mind; an enormous, headless chicken if you will. Not even our so-called rulers have defined an identity with which they may confidently lead those ruled. For they would wish us their slaves - but who slaves over creatures in captivity more than the captors themselves? Vain values run like whiskey down the lips of the world, licked and lapped by they who hide their heads beneath the sand upon which it falls. Indeed, not even the pedestals of Truth, Beauty, Justice and Rationality are without disgrace, raped and ransacked as they stand bared like so many misguided messiahs. When the philosopher's pen speak his mind, how could all that is writ be used to justify the actions he would never dare condone? Is the discipline of a scientist but a tool in the making of damning weaponry?

Life, as we know it, appals me. I am ashamed of man.

So the whole idea of a soul- which I understand to be "the absolute essence of a living/human entity"- is erroneous because the soul could not interact with anything, could not change, could not move, could not have any qualities, could not be known, could not manifest in any way whatsoever.

So speaking about "absolutes" (without the intention to refute them) is rather absurd.

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α- I propose that a new first-person sandbox computer game be created. The player assumes the role of a lowly farm worker or the like, whose home country is suddenly embroiled in war. The objective of the game is to survive - and while it is theoretically possible to get an improvised weapon and try to acquire better ones from the soldiers you somehow manage to incapacitate with it, the game is meant to be realistic in terms of how much damage your body can sustain, consequences of untreated wounds, etc. The main part of the game should therefore be spent as a non-combatant, attempting to get to temporary safety from what will soon be the next battlefield. There may even be a pacifist route in which the eventual goal is to organize a successful anti-war movement. I am as yet uncertain whether it should be set in medieval times or present day. Both have their appeal.

Please tell me if something like this already exists.

I have been analyzing my life, trying to figure out how I ended up as yet another loser posting at the obscure place of the Internet instead of becoming an internationally recognized scientist, or an inventor or just a successful rich guy (as seen on TV).

I traced everything back to a point of my life when I was a third grader. I loved one particular girl in my class, but instead of informing her of that fact I told about it to a friend, who seemed like a good, calm, even a bit timid guy (he was forced to attend a church school on Sundays, learn to play violin, etc). Upon hearing about my feelings, he immediately went to her and said that I told him that I love her. RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME! And she was laughing, and jumping over chairs and acting overall quite hyperactive. I couldn't figure it out. I was feeling deeply ashamed. I misinterpreted her laugh.

I never talked to her about it again. Although I must admit that I invited her once to my house around 5th or 6th grades, but she refused. And so, as years went by, I became more and more shut-in, still dreaming about her. At 9th grade she gained some weight, changed her haircut to a terribly ugly one, which made me realize that I've lost the sweetest years and fell into obscurity (I was even called gay for my shyness around girls and my, as I perceive it now, very cute appearance). Later she transferred to another class (mine was specialized on applied sciences, the other one was specialized on humanities) and I couldn't care less about her, but the time and mind were lost. I was far on my journey of changing from an open, curious, "life-of-the-party" guy to a misanthrope.

Even to this day I sometimes get nervous when I hear girls laughing behind my back, especially if they just passed me. I feel awkward around ladies and I lack the knowledge of how to talk to them "naturally". As a result, during any personal conversation I end up over-analyzing my words and actions and have to RTLS (or TAL at best), so to say. (ttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Shuttle_abort_modes#Intact_abort_modes)

As a side-note, there were ten years of schooling back in my day:
1st to 3rd grades - elementary school,
5th to 9th - middle school,
10th, 11th - high school.
Nowadays, 4th grade is back.

289 Name: Death of an Engineer : 1993-09-7799 18:31

I've developed a worldview that convinces me that the human condition gives us "deep happiness" and flow when we engage in human deep actions. What is "deep" in this context? It's profound, resonant, understood by from down to the lower functions of the mind to the highest. Engaging in short time pleasure pleases the lower functions, but unsettles the higher, abstract, desires. Engaging in studies pleases the higher functions, but bores the lower functions. The human activities transcend lower and higher functions and resonate with the whole of the human mind. Exploration. Creation. Gathering a following. Winning debates. Competing in sports.

This is where we experience flow.

I am an Electrical Engineer for a small product development firm and I found peace in the job I do, as I am feeling like a creator. Just sometimes do I wish to also travel, document what I have seen and teach people of the conclusions I have drawn. Debate such conclusions.

here comes the great despair in my life. For I have found to hate modernism and progressivism. It is traditionalism that resonates most with me and it is traditionalism which is dead. I am a missionary with no ear that listens to me. A restless wanderer bolted to a system and place. The Keeper of a Secret. But a secret it shouldn't be.

This inner conflict will only find peace in abstraction. To find the concepts and patterns, the first ideas, the essence of traditionalism, to translate them to dispassionate describing language and publish a highly concentrated abstract form of the (varied, leaderless, beheaded) ideology, so someday it might be found by a person with more fire and clout than I have, in the time where the decline can be more felt than now.

There will lie my absolution and also the tragedy: to smith the key to freedom, but being to weak to turn the lock. As soon as the literature is written and known to be read, my mind will pulsate into harmony again.

The problem with forums and public IRC channels is that they form cultures based around individual personalities, and those who are in or near the center are generally free to be assholes to newcomers while not being called out for that behavior, because most users are eager to please the older/more prolific posters. Fully anonymous boards are far better in this regard, because there are really no identifiable individual personalities. Thus, it doesn't matter how long you've been a poster; if you act like an idiot or an asshole there is nothing preventing other posters from being honest about your behavior. This promotes a healthy social atmosphere.

Counter-counterpoint, having a reputation system doesn't actually prevent any of the shitposts from being made. In theory you could filter certain posters on a non-anonymous board, but I've yet to see a website that implements this. Beyond that, I think having a reputation - either positive or negative - is actually a bad thing, since readers' view of your post will be tainted by your history. Anonymity flattens the playing field and makes sure every post is judged by its own merits.

The real problem is when the users don't filter out the shit, which usually what happens when a community grows too large.

A whole board where you have to think for a whole day before you post. To make a post, you begin by submitting your first draft, and throughout the next day, you're allowed to change it however you want. When a day has passed, your post goes through.

You may post to the board, but it waits 24 hours before emailing you a screenshot of your post, along with a link to a page where it forces you to retype the post in order to think about it more, before finally allowing you to submit. If your submission differs by more than a defined amount, the process starts again.

Alternatively the board waits a shorter time before the email/resubmission, and if two consecutive revisions differ too much, it cycles; otherwise it queues up your post for 24 hours after first submission.

Another alternative: your scheme, but you must make several significant edits before it accepts post.

333 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-8244 08:13

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ Belief in non-determinism is equivalent to the acceptance that not everything is controllable, or even observable, by yourself.

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ I understand politics, but realize this is one of the worst topics of all time.

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ I, an intellectual, like titties so much that I spent 24 hours thinking about them.

344 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9147 23:06

the index on textboards are alright, on an imageboard it makes the website near-unusable.

345 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9155 09:29

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ I've given it a lot of thought, and the only reasonable conclusion is that traps aren't gay.

346 Name: biblical bibliologist : 1993-09-9309 22:29

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ What if Bible passages about loving others like yourself were mistranslated and misinterpreted all along? What if they meant to take all your angst, misery and self-loathing and expend them on others? I.e. these words were meant to untie your mind from being cowardly and weak-spirited against others.
You know, just like turning the other cheek. Basically, asking for a backhand slap that is the worst insult imaginable, making your adversary nothing short of a mortal enemy. I.e. those words were meant to untie your hands to vanquish him or her without a hesitation.

347 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9318 17:13

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ Hippies were just the first consumerist movement who fooled themselves into thinking they weren't consumers.

It seems like a more acceptable mistake because it had not happened before. But it is pretty obvious in hindsight.

348 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9318 18:54

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ Traps are Schroedinger's gay. Whether or not they're gay depends on the mindset you go in with. If you think of them as a boy in a dress, they're gay. If you think of them as a girl with a penis, they're straight.

349 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9321 17:03

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ Fun definitely should be outlawed

350 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9326 09:21

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ Do not be fooled by her flippant, casual, or sarcastic nature. Reimu Hakurei's shining conviction and willingness to look beyond the supernatural's proclivity for hating and even killing humans has been the driving force in making Gensokyo a place where humans and youkai can coexist without outright extinguishing each other.

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ That and throwing around a god's totem and tossing a shitload of charms per second and being able to somehow dodge everything.

351 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9469 13:46

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ I just think that, with a little understanding, we could find the perfect blend. And that's when good neighbours become good friends, there can be no other way.

352 Name: (*゚ー゚) : 1993-09-9529 03:53

(₯ิ_₯ิ) I've quarreled all day with my inner psyche and I've decided it's time to quit smoking. I'm posting it here to pressure myself to keep it up.

362 Name: ( ´_ゝ`) : 1993-09-10019 14:39

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ If "prostitute" is the world's oldest profession, the second oldest must be "soldier". Not long after the first female chimp figured out that she could sell her pussy for bananas, the first male chimp must have figured out that he could beat up other chimps and take their bananas. And thus, "the economy" was born.

364 Name: ((●)トェェェイ(●)) : 1993-09-10296 07:58

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾@MMORPGs and ARPGs(Diablo, PoE, Grim Dawn) are actually just the same genre from different perspectives. In an ARPG you play as the raid boss and in an MMO you play as one of the hundred faceless mooks who pops up out of a barrel or whatever. .

366 Name: ((●)トェェェイ(●)) : 1993-09-10332 05:25

I've been thinking all day long and all I've come to realize is I don't have anything meaningful or profound at all to say. I guess the most meaningful thing I can say is going against what I'm doing right now and that is that it's okay to not comment on everything you want to comment on.

367 Name: ((●)トェェェイ(●)) : 1993-09-10333 08:16

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ Some get it better than others. And some will never get it, despite what they have to see around them

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ After 5006 days of continuous, nonstop smoking, I begin to realize my lungs are probably fucked.

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ Why is a menstruation fetish so rare?

370 Name: ((●)トェェェイ(●)) : 1993-09-10370 08:10

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ pretty sure the oldest profession is some sort of farmer, it makes no sense to accumulate perishable goods like "bananas" or use them as a makeshift trading currency, since it has no lasting value. But it makes a world of sense to "own" farmable land and require "soldiers" to enforce ownership. Indeed, agriculture must come first before any economy can even begin to exist, thus the first workers that could have plausibly being employed in any meaningful sense are farmers.

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ A rarely acknowledged aspect of the U.S. government endorsement of building out suburbs in the postwar years is its role in making nuclear war less effective or at least more expensive for anyone who'd like to try.

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ Such extravagance didn't fit the Second World's doctrine nor budget, but they understood the need for nuclear deterrence. Ironically, their planned economies made it more cost effective and sensible to spend the labor on nuclear weapons instead of better housing.

373 Name: ( ゚ ヮ゚) : 1993-09-10528 13:23

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ The „\ letter. Any language lacking vowel "„\" can't be considered complete. "„\„„" means laughing in Russian online lingo, its length might vary depending on the poster's amusement. The only close, and, perhaps, better known approximation is Japanese "wwwww" that does, indeed, stand out next to hieroglyphs. The huge difference between "www" construct and "„„„", however, is that the latter is natural to the language and can be easily pronounced - and often gets so. Interestingly, both "W" and "„\" are located next to each other in standard keyboard layouts, "„\" taking the place of "S" on QWERTY. Coincidence? I think not. The only downside to the letter "„\" is that for a bystander unfamiliar with it, its shape might resemble "bl" (BL, short for "boys' love", also known as "Yaoi").

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ The only true Great American Novel is Homestuck.

375 Name: vc: wut : 1993-09-10991 06:06

(₯ิ_₯ิ)‚Α-̾ "Risk–Reward ratio"—a sublime imperfect example of the euphonic principle in common with "ablaut reduplication". Like many prehistory ponderers, I wonder what about the cultural milieu of PIEs led to this, but I worry about the vaguely nonzero chance those crafty Caucasians if asked would simply recite "I-E-A-I-A-I-O".
