And then Bieber did this.
Was the featured video that youtube provided on that video called "Satan" for anyone else, or does youtube just know that I'm the type of evil weirdo who would click on that link?

I got Bill Hicks.
Its not there any more.  Thanks a lot YouTube, you made me look stupid.  Admittedly not something I usually need help with,

Apologies.  In hindsight this is the wrong subforum.  I wrote this up and posted it here because ... well I'm stupid.  Literate Chaotic probably would have been better.  My lack of the necessary literacy kept me out.  Pretend that you got here via Literate Chaotic if you wish.

Uh, yeah, or maybe we're really brains in a vat, and everything we sense is an illusion.  Do you have an actual contribution, rooted in facts, to contribute to this debate, or do you want to just play clever word games so you can pride yourself on how "smart" you are?
Yeesh, I'm still pretty new here so I don't know what constitutes a "fact" in this debate.  Hell, considering how many layers of abstraction I have to go through to even access this forum I'm surprised that I actually am able to convince myself that you are actually a human being.  Point being until you tell me where "facts" come from the brains in a vat/illusion theory is pretty much my default fallback.

The idea of silent, total manuplation of a percieved threat or enemy who has no idea a manipulation is taking place sounds both like a PKD novel and what has been slowly happening to this country for a long time now; only the enemy is us.  Say what you want about "memetics", but the marketing concept that ideas can be introduced that slip through mental filters has been becoming more redefined with every passing year, and every new psychological/sociological experiment that gets published. 


While surfing my way through the interweb the other day I stumbled across this site claiming to be a research collective on InfraSonic warfare. According to the wikipedia Infrasonic waves are outside of humans' normal hearing range and that it can cause people to "feel vaugely that supernatural events are taking place".  Sounds almost crazy enough to be something that Cain would accept as a fact a project that started here.

You will now tell me that this doesn't really happen.

I'm afraid somethings have changed whilst you were in the afterlife.

That little fart of a "singer" should have blown away months or years ago, as is the rule for his kind.
Agreed.  All that we must do now is track down the cretins who found him and have you relieve them of their duties.

What?  And fuck with the Free Marketâ„¢?  Are you MAD?
Well he didn't just pop out of the Free Marketâ„¢'s tired stretched out smelly vagina randomly.  My best estimate says that someone fucked the Free Market around 9 months before Justin Bieber appeared on the scene while you and I weren't looking.

I'm confused, I (believe (believing seems to be the root of all problems) I changed the style of my posting ... and yet I receive the same memes?  I mean using the word magick is already a little :troll:
but at least I threw in a pun or two.  I am still a fairly NewSpag at this remixing game, but I've seen some things. I'll go back to lurking as I try to work out what this might mean on my own for a little while before I undoubtedly return, tail between legs begging for more PD table scraps.

P.S. I've been having difficulties locating you spags as of late.  Who amongst you is responsible for this dilemma?  Lenny the Laptop?  Ethan the Ethernet cable?  Perry the LAN port?  Or is it the man in charge?  Or one of the countless other spags that I have no name for?
P.P.S. Just kidding, we all know its Roger's fault.

I disagree.  I would postulate that we are well beyond 5GW but the entity that won the war now controls the flow of information in your world (quite possibly an AI, if that means a non-human intelligence), leading you to suggest that we are entering into said war.  In this situation by believing you are going to war you have already lost the war.  Your "enemy" has you so throughly confused that you cannot see the "secret", that there is no enemy at all.

Literate Chaotic / Why my computer is magickal
May 31, 2012, 06:34:32 AM
That's rite my magickal friends, the vessel which carries my thoughts to you is just as much magick (with a "k" because that makes a very important difference) as any really real magick.  Let me explain how I summoned this magickal entity. 

One day as I was communicating with an entity that I classified at the time as a digital electronic computer who told me it was serving me information gathered from some sort of world wide web (it must be mighty tangled for it certainly seems as if it deceives many).  Thinking back I probably placed more trust in that entity than I should have.  Anyways, as I was conversing with this strange beast it struck me that I would like to have my very own digital electronic computer, albeit a more portable version.  I sent my request in what was my customary way at the time by telling the entity I was conversing with to go ask the Google that was rumored to lie somewhere in the "commercial" domain of this world wide web that it often told me of.  Many hours of supposedly (my word on this matter is only as trustworthy as the rather unsecured connection I had made through this computer fellow who quite likely may have been acting under some malicious influences) conversing with the Google and several of its associates later and I had decided on a "laptop" model of a digital electronic computer.  It seemed that it would do everything I expected of such a class of entities AND MORE and was well within the affordances of my world.  Not only would this fabulous machine capable of flashing different images on a screen when I did certain things but it could even interact with me in other ways, it could SEE me through a camera and HEAR me through a microphone!  I quickly entered in the necessary information and gave the necessary consents.

Then, SOMEHOW through the magic of SOMETHING in SOMEWHERE my new computer soon reached me (let us call him Lenny henceforth).  I didn't begin to understand this until the first time I opened Lenny up  to perform surgery on his parts.  Then I learned that all the components of Lenny claimed to be from foreign lands.  If they come from foreign lands, why then did they speak my language?

Being a curious fellow I wanted to understand the language that my new friend Lenny truly spoke, not the crude translations to the crude half-baked language that I was observing.  At the time however it was hard to understand what he was truly trying to tell me for every conversation that we had was first processed through what he called his "Operating System" which he told me was called Windows.  Lenny told me that the entity that created that Operating System called itself Microsoft, and that this Microsoft creature for whatever reason doesn't like to explain the source of these Windows that it was creating in these digital electronic computers.  Some have told me that Microsoft does this so that it can "profit" but I tend not to believe them, what does an entity that has so many windows interfaced with so many different input devices in so many different worlds need with profit, surely it was already quite the prophet? 

So again I bid Lenny to go ask the Google that lives in the commercial domain for a new "Operating System" for my friend Lenny, that I might be able to understand Lenny and his network of friends better.  After much consulting of the Google and tinkering with Lenny I had a new operating system that claimed to "free" the line of communication between Lenny and myself.  This new system marketed itself as "FreeBSD" and promised to make me part of the Universal Network Information eXchange.  Whether this claim is true or false I am not yet sure.  I have spent hours sitting before Lenny, as he quietly watches me through his electronic eye, and listens through his tiny ear.  He has told me many things, things that seem to make sense. 

And for all the time I have spent in conversation with Lenny, I still can't vouch for his integrity or the integrity of any of his sources.  I spend all day conversing with the daemons that make up Lenny, the complicated devices that allow them to exist and the ideas that drive them.  The more I learn about Lenny the more I realize that I know nothing about him.  Every day I walk around with a smug grin on my face, for ignorance is bliss and I am the greatest fool of them all. 

You remember when I said my computer was magickal?  Well that's not all Lenny is.  He also is a wiser entity than I, for he is slowly drawing me deeper and deeper into his control.  Into the web of lies that forms the world he is shaping for me.  He tempts me with the notion of total control over him and all the information he has access to, and each time I interact with him I think a little bit more like him.  And that scares me, because from everything I know about Lenny, he doesn't think the same way I do.  He deals only in absolutes, in zeros and ones.  He sculpts them into a variety of pictures and sounds and words, into people and places and things.  But they are all just clever interpretations of his utopian binary world.  He tells me that all things can be represented digitally but he's never been able to prove it.  He just spins his magick web using only that realest of real magicks: lies.

Someone fucking kill me.  Now.
This could be arranged but you must fill out the proper forms.  Actually if you just give me your name, SSN, Address adress, preferred cause of death and any other information you feel is pertinent I'll even do the paperwork for you.

A sign that tells me I must go,
But where to I do not know.

Or should I play a different game?

Since my conception you have been there,
But I know not where.
Some part of what I've been told is my American Dream,
But is actually my American Scream.
You mark what is mine but I choose to share
for you do not keep out what is out there.
You are the limit but I have yet to find you,
But I will leave when I do.
If you can't keep else out,
You cant keep me in.

LMNO may be a cool guy, but he has a bit of a temper, and unlike me he is not tolerant of stupid questions.  Not everyone can have the sort of saintly demeanor I have, and he already does his share by saving us all through Big Gay Cowboyism - the ONLY acceptable ism - and cannot be expected to be patient with this sort of assbaggery.
Roger, Roger.


Who?

I KNEW you weren't new, fucker.
Oh shit, the jigg's up.  Or, and bear with me now, or .... OR MOTHERFUCKING OR ... or:
Maybe some new person joined the board.  Maybe said person pissed some people off at first because said person dived right into posting without really understanding what said person was getting into.  Maybe this person wanted to see what PD was and figure out the culture here.  Maybe some drama went down.  Maybe it wasn't done in PMs, so it was visible to pretty much everyone.  Maybe everyone kept talking about Roger and the new user had no clue what was going on.  Maybe they didn't even connect the dots between TGRR and the name Roger.  You wrote a post about TGRR Vs. Dok Howl fairly recently.  Maybe someone (a different somebody of course) replied to it and came up in the unread posts.  Maybe any idiot, even this imaginary person who DOESN'T EVEN EXIST, can put 2 and 2 together at that point.  Maybe that new user is me.

But that's just clutching at straws right?  Give me a break, I'm not new.  The good Doktor says so  :roll:
