of course, there's no way ANY movie could possibly be worth that amount of anticipation smiley - laugh
hey, susY, my buddy over here, e-mailed me this quote. i love it
smiley - laugh

"The most ridiculous concept ever perpetrated by H. Sapiens is that the Lord God of Creation, Shaper and Ruler of the Universes, wants the sacharrine adoration of his creations, that he can be persuaded by their prayers, and becomes petulant if he does not recieve this flattery. Yet this ridiculous notion, without one real shred of evidence to bolster it, has gone on to found one of the oldest, largest and least productive industries in history."
Robert Heinlein

what do you think?

petey out! smiley - ok

I agree completely.

It's right.

Interesting.

Any ideas on what you might do if a comet was on the way?

as i've told you before, i would find out where exactly it would hit Earth and then take the next plane out to where ever that was so i could be hit on the head by it smiley - laugh
oh no, wait... we already clarified that it'd be a waste to not even see the thing come down and hit earth. so, i'd find out where it was gonna hit and stand about, say, what do you think?, 100 meters away from the calculated impact site? that should give me a 50% chance of getting hit on the head anyways, you know if there was a slight breeze or something smiley - laugh or if a butterfly fluttering about somewhere in southern california affected the trajectory of the comet [chaos theory]...

what would you do?

oh, i don't mind going over this doomsday thing again smiley - biggrin
so, your memories are erased every time you sleep smiley - zzz
smiley - laugh
what would you do AFTER you saw it hit Earth?
oh yeah, you'd jump out of a plane with a parachute smiley - laugh
and, then you'd go on a humongous eating binge, right smiley - laugh? and become huge and fat smiley - laugh

can't i convince you that a 90-day crack cocaine, heroin, metamphetamine binge would be the best way to go?
smiley - laugh
that's what i'd do. seriously.

I might consider the cocaine thing, if I was gonna die anyway.
No I do not lose my memory when I sleep, although it might be nice if we did. We would start everyday, fresh and optimistic, with no memory of anything crap. smiley - smiley

my theory about depression has to do with erikson's stages of life [and with evolutionary theory]. for people around your age, it's much easier to maintain a bright outlook if you have a sig O smiley - biggrin
it's hard-wired into us.

AGREED?

in a nutshell.
we all are biologically hard-wired to find a mate and have kiddies.
otherwise, evolution would have weeded us out.
doing this [mating, etc] leads to a more positive psychological state. smiley - biggrin
not doing this leads to a more negative state. smiley - blue

erikson's theory says the same thing except he calls the stage of young adulthood "intimacy vs isolation"...

so, i think a lot of young people who are single are lonely b/c they are not following their hard-wiring/lacking intimacy. and this makes them prone to becoming depressed. smiley - blue

AGREED?

I'd watch the Matrix.
A fine film about the messiah story and the meaning of life.
Want to debate that?
