Well, shit…

As long as you don’t end up missing something good, because you dismissed it too early. That was my only point.

emotional discourse is a human necessity,snuffed out by the puff of the cold,rancid breath of political correctness.there is something mildly creepy about the rarefied intellectual tip-tapping of swords that goes on in forums where people are deathly afraid to say that they disagree.if you`re going to brandish a weapon be prepared to cut flesh or fuck off.otherwise why even bother learning and forming an opinion.
some might be amused by this:

some will not.
tim leary was irish.r.a.w. either is or wants to be.marshall mcluhan knew what it meant to be irish.they want to start trouble,roll around on the ground,get punched and then shake hands and have a drink.they say”the devil take the hindmost,i`m alive and revelling in it”.cogito ergo sum.
the artist sees the pattern and sees where it`s going and races ahead,waiting,hands on hips,for the rest to catch up.
you do that one time too many and you make some enemies.
here it`s safe in that the worst thing is that a person may have to stop posting.
meanwhile………..enjoy the joust.

“Tolerance used to mean that people of strong convictions would willingly bear the burden of putting up peacefully with people they regarded as plainly in error. Now it means that people of weak convictions facily agree that others are also right, and anyway the truth of things doesn’t make much difference as long as everyone is “nice”. I don’t know if “judgmentaphobic” is a word, but it ought to be. This republic crawls with judgmentaphobes. Where conscience used to raise an eyebrow at our slips and falls, sunny non-judgmentalism winks and slaps us on the back.
In the abscense of judgment, however, freedom cannot thrive. If nothing matters, freedom is pointless. If one choice is as good as another, choice is merely preference. A glandular reflex would do as well. Without standards, no one is free, but only a slave of impulses coming from who knows where.” ~ Michael Novak
