The cool thing about art is everyone interprets it a different way.
The cool thing about artists: so do they.

I really don't like you.

but i looooove you

(and btw, you don't know me, but i know you)

Goddamnit, CA, this isn't poetry night. This is a conversation, yet you insist on speaking in code language. You, being pretty well-read in philosophy, should be all for communicating in a way that actually works. I am pretty sure I have seen you praise Wittgenstein somewhere.

He's kinda tied with Satchmo for most pretentious member of the forum.

I just wonder whether he has been stoned too much.

To be honest, I enjoy conversations with him more than I enjoy ones with the other members of the forum, specifically because of his knowledge. I definately disagree with him, and we are almost polar opposites, at least that is my observation.

I just don't see the need to spew unexplained poetry in this situation.

What...Tied?

I have no equal!

You've said this to about 5 of us lately. When will you readily admit the problem is you and go away.

i disappeared for a while and this became a good thread.

Sorry, I got frustrated. For the record, I've been sober for quite a while now, doesn't really feel like it though.

I'm just getting to that point where I feel like I can never really get my point across, and I should stop trying to talk about what can't be talked about (you'd think reading the Tao te Ching and Wittgenstein would have taught me that a while ago...)

I believe there is a point when rational analysis becomes empty, when we stop talking and learn to sing. That's why I started spouting poetry, but in the wrong context poetry can be cruelty. Again, my apologies. I care about you all and your beliefs and attitudes toward the world and I know you're all on your own paths and I shouldn't arrogantly try to push you in the direction I believe to be forward. Still, I crave human contact and intellectual stimulation and this is the best way I know to go about it. Oh, dilemmas...
