h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

To answer your question:

I believe that function follows form. I play both sides of the board with equal moves, or as you would call symmetrical. That is how I play the game. My opponent does try to break my form, but I maintain my formation.

Well, you will know me better as you play the game. I will also understand you better, your attitude, as you play.

I made my move.

>> I will also understand you better, your attitude, as you play. <<

I doubt it. Even I have trouble understanding me.

Ambivalent?

Make up a purpose. Monty Python has a purpose, and look at them.

Anyway, before you trash my comment, just play the chess game.
It will be fun.

Wouldn't it be interesting if I could play Stak Trek chess with you? Hmmm.
Nah, not now.

No, 'twould be rather silly.

And Monty Pythons only purpose was to be funny and make money.

Yes, and that is a noble purpose as any. Monty Python did not send severed heads through the mail nor did they rape or pillage, and so their purpose to make money as comedians is good.

Why be depressed? That is pointless ambivalence.

Hmmm, you want to do what is right or nothing at all. But since you think there is nothing but wrong choices for you to make, you choose to do nothing except sit (stand, walk) and think. I do the same as you (I do rant), believe me or not.

I am not here to cheer you up. You can do that for yourself. Yep. You are a god, so amuse yourself! You can try to squish me to amuse yourself, but you will be severely disappointed because you won't succeed. But really I am not important enough to be squished.

You can make your messages to me longer and not feel so shy. Also you could stop thinking that I am a wicked joke. Wah ha ha ha! Yep.

I made my move.

When I include "Yep" in my messages that could be seen as my foible. But really, I am trying to communicate with you, and your lack of enthusiasm makes me logically think that I should send you only 5 worded messages of "Hello, I made my move". ...When I write more, I may sound like a wondering idiot typing to say something to you as way to keep the line of communication open.

I give you credit for playing chess with me. That is a brave move on your part.

I make short posts as I have a lot of other stuff to do on this site and I'm quite a slow typer. Simple as that.

And I don' believe that I can only make "wrong" moves. I'm an optimistic cynic, which means that while I believe that humans are a horribly stupid evil race, I have no doubts that I'll be the head horrible stupid evil human one day.

I once suffered from depression, but that ended after I lost religion and became an atheist.

I knew that you called yourself an optimist cynic.

Thank you for not getting cranky at my last comments.

Well, human beings will de-fault to evil if they don't try (make effort) to do good. What is good is to be judged after the fact when it is done. Nothing will get done if people contemplate and plan all the time. This is true mostly because people in contemplation aren't active except in their thoughts. The sad and very hilarious irony is that evil happens by de-fault when contemplation is only done since "when men and women do nothing, evil happens".

About myself:

I do contemplate what to do and wonder if what "I think is good" is ACTUALLY good to do. But, as example, I do nothing because I may not know what is right to do, and evil happens when nothing else happens. Now, I think that is hilarious.

The Star Trek episode (I don't know the goddamned date) when Captain Kirk is divided into two selves, one good and one evil, is example of what I just described. The good captain Kirk could only contemplate what he could do, and so he always was fearful and doubtful of what was right to do. Meanwhile, the total bastard (the evil) Captain Kirk was pure will and ambition. He would do anything and he didn't care about consequences. The two extremes had to be united.

About Myself and Depression:

I occasionally fall into spells of depression because of the aforementioned example before I told you the Captain Kirk example. But I put those doubts, which is garbage, out of my mind and I say "Meh, I will just do, and be judged after the fact." If I seem like an asshole, well it is good that I am being brave instead of not participating in the world and evil happens anyway.

Now consider this:

If everybody did nothing, then no evil will happen? But that isn't true, since something else will assume humanity's place when people refuse to participate in the world. [This is the overall logic of what I first talked about in this message] Wah ha ha ha, there is a sense of humour in life.

I made my move

*Glances through the posting.*

Yeah, what you said.

(I'm also too busy to read long posts.)

I made two moves in the same day.

I am also busy doing work. So, I can't amuse myself by writing long posts, although I am prone to.

But I am posting right now because I thought that I had lost the chess game since I suddenly suspected that your black knight could have taken out my king. My silly paranoid suspicion was proven wrong. The game will continue.

By the way: What do you do that keeps you so busy?

I love university work. Soon, (well within years -- before the end of the decade) I will be a scholar. Hmmph, I will make my History degree matter.

Oh I'm just generally busy with things (vauge, I know).

Yes, for a second there yesterday I thought I was about to win, but then I realised that you had made a very clever move.

Yes sir, I am one smart monkey. However, I sometimes forget where my chess pieces are placed. Yesterday was an example of me suddenly wondering if my Queen was in the right spot to protect the king. I have lapses in memory sometimes. Aside from my sometimes vague memory, I can also be defeated because I play too defensively. For instance, I played and lost a game, before the one that you and I are now playing, because I played defensively (as though I were under siege). Eventually my side of the board was overrun and my king was finally put in check.

I love playing the game of chess. I have LOST MANY games, but I keep trying.

Right now, like you, I am busy doing stuff. I am working on three different projects.

Are you interested in any type of history whatsoever?

Sure, I'm very interested in German history between 1933 and 1945. Great times.

Well I hardly ever play chess, but I do tend to play a lot of straegy games on my PC.

I am studying German History right now.

I am, in fact, doing an essay on the Nazis German Scientists and their experimentations. My thesis is to argue that Science's expermentations should be limited by ethnics. However, if Science is limited then a person could argue against me that Science wouldn't be able to make as many discoveries. However, I say that, "Yes, in the pursuit of knowledge, without restraint, a scientist is able to discover anything through any experiment. However, are you willing to be an experiment if the scientist believes that you are subject to dissection?" Everyone would say no, but only after I describe to them the cruelty that is inflicted by a scientist upon those who are kept prisoner and subject to their experimentation. I come from a Polish background along with other backgrounds (but that doesn't matter since I would think the same regardless) and so, I wholly disagree with the Nazis Scientists' immoral and, therefore, cruel experiments on Polish people and etc. during WW2.

I also saw a film about Adolph Hitler, a biography about him, in class about three weeks ago. He was a vegetarian, lazy, but passionate as an orator. In the year 1939, he was voted as the Year's Most Sexy and Charming man. Fascinating . Well, I can't ramble right now. Bye for now.

Hmm, I really do sound like a young Hitler.
