  • Or cattle prods .... you could hire cowboys on horses to just ride into the office between the cubicles and cattle prod the people out into 'play pens' for a 15 min break ... then herd them back once they are done.

  • Me talking to my mirror self: .... who are you again and what are we doing?

  • That's the paradox and that's why I love this thought experiment.

    There is infinity in everything and everywhere ... yet we are told that we can't cross infinity ... yet we do it all the time.

  • That was all easy to see ... the question is ... why? ... many different people across many different communities are able to do that and they probably do without us knowing.

    The question is why this individual or group are doing this now.

    And I temper that with the message that I don't want to put anyone in a corner, I'm just curious as to what is happening because I think many people are thinking the same thing. You guys do great work and I have a lot of fun here ... I just get worried when stuff like this happens because it might be a sign that other things are happening.

  • Then you tell yourself ... 'just ten minutes' .... and five hours go by

  • Can anyone comment on what is going on .... I watch the posts often enough over time but if I leave for a week, the whole landscape can change so dramatically. Sometimes I feel like this community is an episodic show and you have to tune in every day in order to stay in the loop .. otherwise, if you skip a day or even a week, you'll miss out on several storylines in the background that got recently introduced.

    I like everyone here but it gets confusing and even disturbing when things are happening in the background that we don't know about it.

  • A fool calling a fool a fool

  • Usually when you are trying to kill a bear with a small knife and trying to keep it away from the last pile of hamburger meat in the room .... the bear is going to by very, very, very angry and hurt a lot of people.

    In this instance, the bear is capitalism and billionaires

  • .... to infinity ... and beyond

    and you don't fly there either ... you're just falling with style

  • I also always loved Xeno's paradox ... specifically the Dichotomy Paradox (Halving): To travel from point A to point B, you must first reach the halfway point, but before you reach that halfway point, you reach the halfway point of those two points and on and on and on into infinity ... which suggests that in order to get from any point A to any point B, you have to cross infinity ... but it's impossible to travel to infinity so the suggestion of the paradox is that you should never be able to reach any point B

  • You don't get it .... these morons apply the laws and rules of the bible to other people ... NOT THEMSELVES!

  • Working really hard to keep an eye on common people ... when the country should be looking really closely at those in leadership instead

  • The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have any white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones

  • Then we learned that if you wanted to get the right answer from people ... all you had to do was confidently post an answer, any answer, especially if it was wrong ... and so many people would jump on you so fast to tell you how stupid you were and give you the right answer.

    .... and you also had to tie an onion on your belt which was the style of the time.

  • Us poor people treat fines, charges, lawyers and court proceedings as deterrents against doing certain things ... especially if they are illegal.

    Rich people treat fines, charges, lawyers and court proceedings as the cost of doing business ... and it doesn't matter if its legal or illegal to them ... they just throw money at everything and they don't care if it's right or wrong or moral or immoral.

  • "It's called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it"

    • George Carlin
  • The problem is not that these wealthy owners and political insiders are doing this ...

    ... the main problem is an entire country of complacent morons that allow it all to happen, passively support it, casually ignore it, pretend it isn't like that and vote accordingly to put these idiots or idiots like them back into power every single time.

  • lol .... I'd create a program where it made the empty unused holodeck look like it was filled with all sorts of strange fluids and liquids that need to be cleaned.
