Silly season

Well the silly season has begun and I'm no exception to it’s powerful forces. Boy have I've made some boners this month hehe. But as they say "it's all good'. Marry Christmas all.

Bye mail theroy

I’ve been looking at some of my old email of late and found that whenever I say bye at the end of my emails, I never email that person again. It’s interesting because it’s not due to any animosity or hate, heck I even see some of these people again. It’s like this subconscious thing where if I say bye I mean goodbye. I guess it’s a bit like that Seinfeld episode when he says “See ya around “.

Who is “I”?

I ask myself who is I? Is I me? Is it you? Who is it? Is I a description of the species? You’d be watching the ever-tacky star trek and the captain would call our race the “I”. I can be used in a sentence in past present and future. Everyone uses it, yet it’s so singular, personal and irreducible. Maybe I is the people, it’s a verbal manifestation for describing all humans and our interconnectedness. Who knows.

Blog of the day

What the!!

I read on a "popular" Melbourne blogsite a disturbing view on Goths. I quote "all Goths are bi" WHAT THE F*&K IS THAT!!. Now really, where did that totally bogus statistic come from? Please I would really like to know?

Past view

Question. When people describe others using short descriptions such as quick tempered or honest are we not only inferring on the past judgments? Cannot people change their temper? Can’t an honest person become dishonest? To not be able to change our personality means we are not in control of our lives. Hegel said it nicely with; Wesen ist gewesen ist - Essence is what has been.

Oliblock
I want some Oliblocks. They look like so much fun.

Books books

I was reading Marcus’s last entry on how many books he reads and buys. I just want to add one of my major reasons for the; buy more books than you read theory. I buy more books when I’m depressed. I don’t really know why, I guess because I can be sure what I’m going to get out of it. Problem is I own a library of books. Alot unread.

Interactive story telling

Great site for those internet story tellers second story

Top Google Searches

It's always fun to see what the top searches, trends or as they call it Zeitgeist of the year are.

Dishonour block

Friday night was a total blur. I know I went to a party with a mission but who would have guessed I had to complete it at all costs and not with the intended mission objective either. I have always said I’d rather be alone for the rest of my life then to not feel the right emotions for someone. Friday proved that without a doubt. I thought I could just go for it and forget it, just enjoy the moment. About Five minutes in and I just stopped. “No this is not gonna happen” I said to her. I think I remember an incredulous look in her face for about a second. I now feel like total crap. For letting myself go, even though I had a few beers under my belt.
One thing it makes me understand thought is how a person can do that. A while back someone did the same thing to me. It makes me respect them all the more (I still hate them though hehe). So that's the dishonour block. Some may say it prevents you having a good time. I argue it makes sure you do have one.

Bloggers

Well this should be my last entry for some time. I'm not interested in blogging anymore. As a site to put down some thoughts and information for yourself and interested parties it's a great tool. As a site to give you faux importance, which many a person is trying to do even in this little town of Melbourne, that’s a joke hehe. Good luck to them though I hope they never wake from that fantasy to find the cruel undeniable truth of anonymity
