Is it possible that the act of explaining something fundamentally changes it's nature? Like when those dudes tried to monitor those electrons to see how they could possibly go through two slits at once but as soon as they started monitoring them they only went through one slit. . . I forget their names, but I'm sure SOMEONE knows what I'm talking about.
As it is said, there are two types of people, those who get it and those who don't. I don't think Erisianism can be explained to those who don't get it, simply because the only ones who can explain Erisianism are those who understand it, and they won't, because they can't. Because it can't be seperated from the jokes about it, because the jokes are the explanation! But then again, what can be explained, has been, twenty-seven centuries before that which can't be explained arose.
Then again, you have to appreciate a philosophy/religion where confusing people is a form of worship and laughter is prayer. I did my part for the cause, this morning I returned "good morning" with "grasshopper always wrong in argument with chicken". Felt good. Felt great. Then I watched Alice in Wonderland and celebrated the confusion.
Yo, I think I'm crazy. Anyone want to celebrate?

The double slit experiment is basic in the understanding of quantum mechanics, and proves the existance of parallel universes. Not only has it been proved in spacial relation, but also in temporal.
the shrooms you ate weren't strong enough
the acid you dropped wouldn't be cleared by goat the turdburglar.
the truth that is to be told is only the truth for onself. if a truth is universal or can be understood by several people, it isn't the truth, merely truth. if the case is of truth.
if it could be explained it would not be true

it could be true, but not to you.

Which kills you faster, smoking or getting hit by a bus?
depends on what you're smoking and how fast the bus is going.

Could how fast the bus is going depend on what you're smoking.
Could how fast you're smoking depend on where the bus is going?
Sounds like wonka-talk.
Piece of Shizzle!
I take credit for that post, I do I do I do. Unless it offends anyone, in which case I do only if I do not like said someone. Which is unlikely in any case.
Has anyone ever read "Heisinburg probably slept here"?
Quote from: FinnyhahaHas anyone ever read "Heisinburg probably slept here"?
Heard of it. I've got a book called Schrodinger's Rabbits over there, but I haven't read it either.
And I agree that we should celebrate. We should always.
The clouds above us join and seperate,
The breeze in the courtyard leaves and returns.
Life is like that, so why not relax?
Who can stop us from celebrating?
Or alternately. . .
There's a hurricane a brewin'
And the wind won't stop a stewin'
Life is like a dance hall
And I've got the party balloons
But HEY! WHO THE HELL TOOK MY CONFETTI?

Stop explaining Things. They like their Nature the way it is.

Unless they are African Face-Raping bats...in which case...we know what they like.
Oh, man... I forgot about the face-raping bats...

You won't find them. Your other pesonalities hide in the dark corners of your mind. Back behind the spider webs. They hide, so you can't see them,
but they whisper, so you can hear them,
but just barely,
so you think it is you, but it is really them.

You forget, all things are true. Even false things.
A Discordian is prohibited from believing in what he reads.
Now, where did I read that?
Quote from: LMNONow, where did I read that?
i think it was in some book....or maybe on a sunday morning religous program???
You read sunday morning religious programs?
...
Quote from: FinnyhahaYou read sunday morning religious programs?
no. you watch them. they are on bad tv stations. old ugly men talking about jesus.
maybe they should do those like that news program where the people strip while they tell news stories. many more people would become religious.
I don't know about you. . . but if an old ugly man started stripping while talking about Jesus. . . I'd wanna run as far away as I could.
Maybe you go for the old ugly men though.
To each his own.
no silly head :roll: they have pretty people do it!
it would be rather funny to see the jesus loving old man stripping....disturbing but amusing...
Wouldn't having pretty people strip break the first law of sunday?. . . no fun
Quote from: FinnyhahaWouldn't having pretty people strip break the first law of sunday?. . . no fun
Yes. And that's why it is required.
In the introverted confusions of our own mind, we find the possibility to expand our consciousness into new terrains, both outwardly and inwardly and transcendentally.
Do not believe what you read,
But do not exclude belief on the basis that it has been read.
In the tensions of seeming paradoxes, we find resolutions.
Life is paradox, and action is the result of tension.
All existence is tension between points resulting in shifts of other tensions resulting in me writing a load of shit.
For many people the twisting complexities of their own mind seem to abstract to be taken seriously.
The only way then to become a psychonaut is to extract the self which explores from the bounds of the self that makes bounds. Yet this, at first, must be done from the basis of the self that makes bounds. The self that makes bounds generally allows anything when it is in humor.
For many, humor and jokes is a good means by which to tread the path of transcendental consciousness.
Only comedians dare deal with the most serious of matters.
To explore your life, one must become a clown, a comedian, a joker and a jester.
But there are aspects to this, and there are manifold paths to tread. Those four are but the most lighthearted.
There are the jibers, the pranksters, the meddlers, the enchanters and the pardox-twisters.
Each play their role, each have aspects of all within them.
And there is so much more...
to this aesthetic creation we call life, this sculpture we call self.
uhhhh

this is love.
Maybe things don't really change when explained, but we certainly change when we explain things. "Things" don't exist anyway, we're just making them up as we go along so that we can think and speak about reality easily. Not really real but still an interesting game.
Some people can get really caught up in it though :)

Who is this person, I need to introduce him to my cluebat.
That was Eric.
He had a thing for hitting on member's younger sisters. As in, 12 years old.
also for obsessively webstalking anyone who ever made the mistake of responding to him with anything less than abject cruelty.
Fuck, I remember that. It was like kicking a puppy sometimes.

Great Teacher Onidzuka influenced webcomic artist Fred Gallager in Megatokyo coined Great Teacher Largo as a nod to the former. This was subsequently taken up by a child stalking asshole who frequented here once upon a time and has no relation to the former two items.
