Shallowness(in my opinion) is created once your influenced, by either seeing it or hearing it. I would be interested in hearing whether or not you meant this to say that you think shallowness can arise from misunderstandings (ex: mishearing something as something shallow or seeing something but mis...

I don't think love is something that can be conveyed fully in words. That's not to say that good verbal descriptions cannot suffice to call to mind the right understanding, but I mean that words cannot explain love to someone who has not experienced it. Now, I sincerely hope that I do not know what ...

Have you considered that maybe our existence defines our consciousness and that our consciousness does not define our existence?

I find it very hard to be confident as to what time is physically, and I am doubly confused when I wonder whether or not there is a difference between how fast humans can observe time and how fast time physically happens. Thus, I think it might be more informative to talk about what we don't know ab...

Maybe that's why I'm looking to karma to justify the fact that it hurts me more than my ex after she cheats on me then dumps me... How would karma justify you hurting more in that situation? I'm not sure I quite follow that. Do you mean that you did something bad some other time & thus you got ...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candy_Boy If you're like me, then "the warm fuzzies" is the feeling that really makes a story a great story in your eyes. Candy Boy is anime that was a really really great story in my eyes. However, I have to note that my enjoyment of it was derived mostly fro...

When ya'll talk about karma, the word "heuristic" keeps on screaming at me to be said. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heuristic A heuristic is a rule, a simplifying rule, that one applies to a problem to get a guess at an answer. A heuristic doesn't have to be (and probably isn't) the actual...

Growing up, I had very clear idea of what "shallow" was. Basically I was told it meant the typical displays of vanity or superficial affection. . . .there is no such a thing as real shallowness. There is only false shallowness in refusing or not being able to access and listen to one's sou...

This was a no-brainer. Chocolate. It makes you fat, but it makes me happy.

since when is "needs whiskey" a con?

I bet the only reason the ninjas won this poll is because they ninja'd the votes at the last instant. Well, that's fine. Ninja's probably need that little ego-boost because they can't drink away the misery of their squalid lives with whiskey. . .

http://www.binarynotions.com/halite-bittorrent-client My weapon of choice wasn't up there. It's a bittorrent client called Halite. I switched over to it from vuze awhile I go because I prefer Halite's simplicity. Additionally, Halite's webpage describes it as "using the boost c++ libraries&quo...

http://www.theprodukkt.com/kkrieger As far as gameplay goes, this game, called .kkrieger isn't really anything special, but nonetheless the game represents something pretty spectacular. It is miniscule in size. Go on, download it on the linked page, and take a look at what you downloaded. It's ~96 ...

Over the years, my friends & I have held our own little closed circle lans. Steam sucks in terms of these lans. The protections it imposes kill off the potential of buying one copy of a game to play with friends at a lan, and the chances of me & my friends actually all having purchased the s...

PS2 Tales of the Abyss. Nifty awesome multiplayer save-the-world rpg. Me & two friends played it through over the course of year (sporadic get togethers & whatnot), and it haunts us still. I especially liked how the multiplayer element worked out. The only multiplayer interaction is in the b...

The absolute best old school game of my wasted youth was without a doubt Jill of the Jungle. Jill, the main character, runs around through various levels (some of which are in jungles) until she saves the prince (eventually). Sadly, I threw away the pretty boxes the games came in originally (there w...
