News:

All you can say in this site's defence is that it, rather than reality, occupies the warped minds of some of the planet's most twisted people; gods know what they would get up to if it wasn't here.  In these arguably insane times, any lessening or attenuation of madness is maybe something to be thankful for.

So apparently the first email I sent the Prof must've gotten lost in their spam somewhere. :argh!: So I've sent it again, this time with the bit about disorder =/= chaos among the bullet points. Whee.
There is no reason to,
Be ashamed of poetry. It,
Is natural. But you should,
Still do it in private,
And wash your hands afterward.

Is it that "disorder = chaos is a fallacy, the truth is that chaos = disorder and order"? Am I close? Either way, thanks for the critique. Like my icon says, I'm just tryn'a Listen and Learn, y'know what I mean?

Nailed it.



Thanks for the followup posts spags. That was awesome.

Another update; apparently the Prof can't even see the emails I've sent them. Literally, searching my email in their inbox pulls nothing up. They're looking into it, at this rate I'll be glad when they just get to read the thing, let alone look at the PD. I don't wanna assume shit, regarding the school and censorship/privacy, but maaaaaan I kind of want to assume shit, knowing that. :lulz:

Of an email? I just might, at this rate. If they still can't find the email by tomorrow, I'll bring that up to them after class. Maybe I'll sneak it/the link to the PD into my final paper for the class, maybe in the works cited page. :lulz: ...actually, I probably could do that, depending on what the prompt is for the essay. :eek:

You should ask LMNO what happened when he invoked her in the mornings during a week... I dont even want to write out the phrase even if it doesnt imply speaking it.  :eek:

Fine, fine, if you remember so well could you tell the fellow the phrase?   :fnord: :fap:

I will not directly quote that madness but I'll gladly inform you that LMNO asked Eris for a surprise.

When? Who knows! Maybe even today.

There's over 100 of us in this meat-suit. You'd think it runs like a ship, but it's more like a hundred and ten angry ghosts having an old-school QuakeWorld tournament, three people desperately trying to make sure the gamers don't go hungry or soil themselves, and the Facilities manager weeping in the corner as the garbage piles high.

Life can be seen as a game with no reset button, no extra lives, and if the power goes out there is no restarting.  If that's all you see life as you are not long for this world, and never will get it.
