I'd bet you my dusty old hat that despite all that, he's richer than the high majority of this forum.

But at what price?

Well despite being faced with a constant wall of critisism due to speech impediments, off the rails thought trains that make mine look like fucking straight edge train tracks, he's still around.

He's rather enduring, or blissfully uncaring or unaware.

What price you say?

Not much. At least he seems to be having a fun ride with things despite it all.

He blocks people who criticise him so....

Ah. Blissfully unaware then.

He's a typical Halo fanboy. I'm just saying that he shouldn't make videos if he can't tolerate being wrong about something.

Nobody likes being wrong though.

It's generally not a pleasant experience.

You're asking a guy who couldn't find it in him to give any less of a fuck about money. Two days ago I took 1000 dollars out of my wee little savings folder and handed it to a friend of mine with no complaints, and not even a comment about paying it off.

I'm going to take another 200 today, which will deplete my savings folder to empty.

So, no. Money is money. You make what you need. And you'll spend what you have.

Yikes.. That's foolish with your money. I'm no jew, but my jelly friends call me one with how I handle money.

Not foolish, no. I know my limits. In due time, that 1200 will be replaced, easily. I don't hand money away to strangers like candy. Those funds were neccessary to help somebody.

I don't live, or spend beyond what I need. I save up, slowly, but for the most part, due to my simplicity, any problems I encounter money wise are all within reach and payability, and I will likely never find myself with a price I can't handle.

And I will never be in debt.

It's actually pretty sad watching him. I honestly hope he's joking. It's hard for me to imagine someone could really be like that.

The fuck are you doing back here?

Old habits. Not so easily washed away.

Eh. That's too bad. I was hoping he got hit by a bus or something.

that seems a bit harsh

You're right. The bus could potentially have passengers. Let's make it a big rig. Better?

Doesn't really the answer why you have a grudge against Camnator.

To be fair, Cam's done some not cheerful things before. And as insulting as it may sound, or as directed as it may sound, Cam's a sham. Just a persona and a front. The real person is hidden and likely, only known to a few people.

Shams are no fun. Tired old stichks is what they are. Played out hands and cheap one trick ponies.

21 C and sunny.
Pretty nice.

I ain't complainin' and wishing for that sunshine to go away. I'm just highly flammable. Extremely sensitive to heat to the extent that I run my hand under lukewarm water for anybody else and I can't hold it there for more than a few seconds.

All me skin's peeling off already since I've been out in this for a few days. I really hope we don't get rain. No dampness pls.

I find it strange though. This is so damn early in the year for temperatures like this.

Is your fucking province on fire? Because mine is for some reason. The last of the snow melts two weeks ago and we go from two days ago, an average temperature of 5C to today.

28C in the shade.

I don't trust this early fall weather. Ya'll on fire too or what?

Go for walks in town/out in the country roads.

Bit of writing.

Listen to music while doing either of those ^^^

It's effectively a gridlock. Even if, there's a war going on somewhere, they won't fire the nukes. Because if they did, everybody would. The country being hit, if capable, would send them back.

Mistakes and jumping the gun with other countries could easily be made when a projectile is spotted travelling through airspace. Russia, for instance.

In order for any country to fire their nukes, it would have to inform all others first. Which would, essentially sink the firing under lines of red tape and arguing.

So, no.

Nuclear devices don't stop wars. They stop themselves. They only stop other people from firing theirs. Conventional war can still easily occur because nobody in their right mind would ever fire because of the return volley. But there's too many ties and interconnected supply lines nowadays for conventional war to be considered.

Lemme think. Likely the wide blue skies. Perhaps the sight of the moon in the sky at 3 o' clock in the afternoon with the evening contrast of the sun, and that feel of evening summer, the hot kind with crickets. The dust on the roads in the evening light as I go back home for the evening.

And, think about it. 200,000 dollars over the course of 18 years?

Fuck, that's almost nothing compared to other fees and expenses.

Was going to wait for your answer on things Verb. But stuff doesn't stick round in my head for long. So here we go.

I asked you what your particular purpose was, your goals and your reasons, because any answer would likely be self centered and therefore selfish or tingeing on it. I want to do this, I want to do that, I want friends etc etc. Saying I want to have kids, or I don't want to have kids, is selfish because it's only ever a decision made in the interest of the person making it.

We, as a species are selfish to many, many varying shades of degrees.

Now, what's really important. This is not an insult. Because it includes me, you, and psych. Regarding our philosophies. They're just that. Philospohies. I belief, an idea. However. All three of ours, while being possiblities, while having the potential to happen, have no bearing in reality because of their great distance.

Rough math, assuming most members of this site are in their 20's, the majority of us have 60 years left in us if we're going by the male average of 80 years. Even though in 60 years time, things will have changed, those philosphies, those quaint daydreams, will not be in reach.

As such, they don't have any grounding in reality. Which therefore means your particular philsophy, in particular Verb, is self defeatist and pointless. And potentially, harmful to yourself. I'm sure, you can't argue against the merits of having a partner with you. Pleasant company.

Which would most likely be a woman who is one of two things. Infertile, or aesexual. Reproductive drives in women are rather powerful, and, rightly so when they're around someone they care about and hold affection for. Even somebody who can't have kids might consider adopting.

So, that leaves you the potential for trouble. Your philosphy will shunt you up a brick wall and you'll either move or you won't. Not moving, will result in fights. Breakups. Cheerful things.

And second. Let's say the cards land in your favor and you meet somebody who jumps on board with your philosophy. Then what? You two live your lives, then you keel over. Your philosphy lacks something Verb. The ability to create paradigms.

How has any belief grown powerful over the centuries? The bible, for instance. Paradigms, installed into children. The best way to expand any belief into any real sense of power or magnitude, is through kids. Raising them by an example, installing a paradigm into them when they're young makes said belief almost unshakable and unbreakable.

So, as such, your belief, Verb, is what I'll just say is a couch potato philosphy. You can't do anything with it. It can't raise kids with raised values to carry on a silent legacy perpetrated by family lines. It can't convince everybody in the world, unless it turned to brute force, which would render it oppressive. It can't, and will never leave any outstanding mark on the world.

And in 60 years time, you'll be dead. I asked you what your particular drive was, because I was curious if you took to talking about your philosophy with others. If it has any semblence of control over your life, it's a sham.

It's a comformity that you adhere to, to make sense of the world but it is nothing more than an idle conversation generator.

And I'll go ahead here for you. My particular belief, is an idle daydream as well. I will never live to see such a thing and at most, I'll live long enough to see the first commercial prosthetics get launched to the public and watch Baltimore Chimp Out 2050 with cyborg people killing each other.

Letting your philosphy run your life, leads to mistakes. Believing you are correct to 100% is a failure and can lead to so many problems.

I'm talking to you, mainly because of my own musings over the past days. I'm aware of the real reality around me. We live only in the present moment. Putting your cards on the future, and all of them, is a surefire thing to backfire.

And while I don't think you're an active perpetrator of your belief, you don't spend your time and efforts on it, I do think you'll spend your life, trying to do whatever it is that you enjoy, just like a normal person, just like every person.

Which regards your philosophy to the couch potato stance again. Just a unique conversation piece. Don't let it call your shots for you verb.

That applies to me because I take my musings on people and apply it to myself as well. But, I figured, I'd share this thought train here with you since this is the place for it, at this point, and this debate was what sparked my thinking.

Do with that whatever you please. Maybe it's presumptious of me or assertive or even not minding my own business in regards to personal affairs.

In that case you can always tell me to fuck off.

What would the context be for someone to use a photo of a kid with his nose in a cactus in a presentation?

Probably something related like a new trend with kids these days to get high from sniffing and getting pricked by cactuses while they've rubber banded parts of their face to the colour purple.

Real pins and needles.

What a rush.

That stock photo place is prepared for anything. They're clairvoyant I tell you.
