The Flood / Guys, I had a revelation tonight« on: August 23, 2018, 04:43:32 AM »
Obi-Wan doesn't need to be on the high ground, the high ground just needs to exist in the battle; Obi-Wan knows that when he has the low ground, he really has the high ground, from a certain point of view. Look at his battle record:
Maul: Has low ground, wins Dooku: No high ground, loses Greivous: Has low ground, wins Vader: Has high ground, wins Vader rematch: No high ground, loses Obi-Wan with the high/low ground is canonically the most powerful Jedi. This is fact. Had Yoda not denied his request with typical Jedi arrogance, he could have beat Palpatine in the Senate building, which housed a variety of different altitudes; this so that the Chancellor could always have the moral high ground in Senate debates. But Obi-wan didn't fight Palpatine, and Yoda soon learned that you can't cleave the Sheev in a normal 1v1. As we all know, spinning is a good trick. However, only the Chosen one can spin outside of a starfighter. Palpatine tried spinning, but he lost (but this was intentional, as losing gave him the emotional high ground when Anakin arrived). The reason for this is that spinning provides a yin-yang approach (based in Eastern philosophy on balance), giving the spinner the high ground from above and below. This is why Obi-Wan was so emotional after defeating Vader on Mustafar; he expected to lose the high ground to the spin, but Anakin failed to maintain balance in the universe, symbolic of his fall to the dark side. Anakin doesn't hate sand for the reasons he told Padme; all Jedi hate sand, as the battlefield can rapidly change between low and high ground. This is the only reason why ______ killed ______ in Rebels. This is also why Obi-Wan hates flying; in space, there is no high ground as there is no frame of reference from which there is a high or low ground, due to the lack of gravity. In ANH, Vader proves his newfound mastery by engaging Obi on perfectly even ground. However, he lets himself die on the Death Star so that he could train Luke from a higher plane of existence. (Why was Vader so invested in the construction and maintenance of the Death Star? Because he knows Obi-wan can't have the high ground if there's no ground left.) In Return of the Jedi, you can see that the Throne Room contains a variety of different altitudes; Palpatine placed these there to ensure Vader's defeat. However, Sheev failed to realize that his weakness was no ground, and should have covered that gaping pit that does nothing. In conclusion, Obi-wan abuses spatial relativity and Buddhist doctrine in order to invoke his high-ground powers. 1474

There's always that little tiny table there, tiny computer,
little cramped seats, tiny food, tiny utensils, tiny liquor bottles, tiny bathroom, tiny sink, tiny mirror, tiny faucet. So, there's a small problem, there's gonna be a slight delay, we're gonna be a little late. I always go in the airplane's bathroom, even if I don't have to go, I gotta go in there. It's nice. It's like your own little apartment on the plane, isn't it? You go in there, lock the door, the light comes on after second. It's like a little surprise party. But I'm always impressed of the amount of equipment that they have in that place. I mean it's little, but they got tissues, towels, closets, compartments, tiny slot for used razor blades. They always have that. Who is shaving on the plane? And shaving so much they're using up razor blades? Is this what's happening? What? Is the wolf man flying in there, for Christ's sakes? Who could shave that much? 1491

Love is blind, they say; sex is impervious to reason and mocks the power of all philosophers. But, in fact, a person's sexual choice is the result and sum of their fundamental convictions. Tell me what a person finds sexually attractive and I will tell you their entire philosophy of life. Show me the person they sleep with and I will tell you their valuation of themselves. No matter what corruption they're taught about the virtue of selflessness, sex is the most profoundly selfish of all acts, an act which they cannot perform for any motive but their own enjoyment - just try to think of performing it in a spirit of selfless charity! - an act which is not possible in self-abasement, only in self-exultation, only on the confidence of being desired and being worthy of desire. It is an act that forces them to stand naked in spirit, as well as in body, and accept their real ego as their standard of value. They will always be attracted to the person who reflects their deepest vision of themselves, the person whose surrender permits them to experience - or to fake - a sense of self-esteem .. Love is our response to our highest values - and can be nothing else.

The Flood / Re: can you rate my short story?« on: August 11, 2018, 01:33:06 AM »rate my short storyIngloriouswho98 delivers once again with a contemporary classic on par with F. Scott Fitzgerald for pure sensory description. A brief, morose tale, 'Death of a Florist' is an ambitious follow-up to the legendary Dreamworks film 'Bee Movie'. It's a dark, tragic tale, contrasting magnificently with the light tone of its animated predecessor. In only 567 words, Ingloriouswho demonstrates an astronomical control of the English language, using vivid techniques to truly bring to life the crushing weight of Barry B. Benson's dreary life. The tonal shift from the film is terrific success, capturing the true pointlessness of existence itself. Ingloriouswho has created no less than a masterpiece, and surely their work will be remembered for generations to come as the pinnacle of literary accomplishment. 1493

Barry looked out the cold soulless glass of the flower shop window. Raining again. Water falling out of the sky like tears from an orphaned civilization.
"The ten million sheep keep grazing," Barry murmured to himself. "The slime and filth of New York all runs downhill." Benson & Associates didn't take off like Barry dreamed it would. The only clients he got were scumbag addicts who couldn't find their antenna if it was hanging in front of them. The flower shop door opened, and a mosquito flew in. "Fucking bloodsuckers," Barry grumbled, lighting a cigarette. The flame burned like the embers of a forgotten time. Barry could hardly remember the last time he was happy; working for Honex and spending time with Adam and Vanessa. Adam was now the CEO of Honesco and fired half the bees to save money, and Vanessa hadn't been the same since she started drinking. "Mr Benson, hello?" The mosquito buzzed around Barry. "Oh god, I need your help. PLEASE!" Barry took another drag from his cigarette and rolled his eyes. "What is it, asshole?" He couldn't stand insect filth who wasted his time. Time. Like the gears of a machine, turning in place, never reaching a conclusion. Barry's time never ended. He had prayed for death before, but no one answered. He used to believe in God, but now God was like a moat flowing through a windmill. The mosquito put its face in its hands. "Oh god...the kids...Elaine...they're all dead." "Let me guess, you got drunk and flew into a rage." The rain kept coming. "What? God no, Barry. It was...it was a car accident. The SUV pulled out in front of me, I had no time to react!" Barry scoffed. "Yeah right, punk. Let me guess, you were on the pipe again?" "No Barry, I'm off that stuff! You've gotta believe m-" Suddenly a giant bare foot came down in front of Barry, crushing the mosquito. Barry looked up and saw Vanessa smirk at him, sangria in her hand. Then she silently walked away. "What a bitch," Barry thought. The rest of the day dragged on. Barry smoked cigarette after cigarette. He would've tried to steal some of Vanessa's liquor, but he knew the consequences if he was caught. He looked out the window again. The city was slowing down, falling asleep. Robots following their programming. Spurred on only by the promise of a divine reward. "Cowards," Barry thought. He took another puff and coughed. The smoke had completely filled his tiny bee body. He doubled over in pain and fell to the hardwood floor. The floor was as cold as a drinking a glass of water after you chew a piece of mint gum. Except way colder than that. Barry felt enormous pain as he started to succumb to tobacco poisoning. He saw Vanessa stumble into the room and make eye contact with him. She was holding a bottle of vodka now. "Vanessa...kill me." Barry pleaded. Vanessa just laughed at his plight and left the shop. "Wh...what a bitch..." Barry couldn't take the pain anymore. He had to end it. He crawled over to the couch and took a deep breath before plunging his stinger into the fabric. The pounding rain coming from the sky started to subside into a light drizzle. As the stinger left his body, Barry sighed in relief. It would all bee over soon. Spoiler do I have a future in authorship? do you see it happening 1496
