LOL. Anyway, just to contribute... Here are some songs that, although raw/brutal, are structured and have some meaning. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPw0JUptfUM ...
Titanic tries WAY too hard to be emotional and touching, and fails completely. That movie fails at everything, really (except making money); narrative is bad, story and characters are generic and...
-People should not be allowed to maintain unhealthy diets. Just like people should not be allowed to waste their time watching mindless idiotic things on TV. I disagree with those that argue that...
I don't know about Marcus Aurelius, but I've been meaning to read The Republic for quite a while. Seems interesting from what I've heard. Some ancient philosophers were truly wise people - I would...
This. I don't know about Lewis, since I only read The Chronicles of Narnia, but everything about the Bible that's worthwhile can be found in some Dostoyevsky books (like The Idiot and The Brothers...
There are probably many books worth reading, but I'll just name my two favorites: -The Brothers Karamazov, Fyodor Dostoyevsky -Daodejing, Laozi
Not romantic, gothic and certainly not tear-jerking, but Andrei Rublev (1966, Andrei Tarkovsky) is tragic, dark, cathartic, epic, profound and artistic. It takes lots of patience (especially if...
Absolutely not. I want to live a long, good life, but not an endless one. That, I believe, would be a fate worse than Death. Even if I could eventually kill myself after some centuries, it is...
Not a quote, but since you're talking about mothers, you could add to that the Mother 3 game. A beautiful homage to both human mothers and Mother Nature.
http://www.buddhablends.com/images/gautam_buddha_in_meditation.gif There are others too. I once came up with a theory (or read it somewhere but don't remember) that the only truly selfless...
1 Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen 2 The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien 3 Jane Eyre - Charlotte Bronte 4 Harry Potter series - JK Rowling - waste of time 5 To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee 6...
-I hate people who whine and complain about religion and God, and yet are unfamiliar with any religion besides Christianity/Judaism/Islam. -I strongly dislike Christianity/Judaism/Islam.
-A Brighter Summer Day, by Edward Yang -The Terrorizers, by Edward Yang -Andrei Rublev, by Andrei Tarkovsky -The Horse Thief, by Zhuangzhuang Tian -A Touch of Zen, by King Hu I bet no one here...
-I hate when people use It's all subjective!!1 as an attempt to invalidate any logical argument. It completely destroys any conversation. I'm not denying the existence of subjectivity, but I hate...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCJwZDrQNls Theme song from arguably the bestest movie ever. I don't usually like this kind of music, but this rocks.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6S1coZRDfXE Perfection, ladies and gentlemen, has already been achieved.
I don't like being generic, but my favorite is Beethoven's 5th Symphony. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQ9CeIic4es There are no words to describe how perfect it is... (7:18 = God)
The Legend Of Zelda - Majora's Mask Delightfully dark and apocalyptic, unlike other games in the series. There are many genuinely sad moments too. There are so many brilliant things in this game,...
I LOVE Osamu Tezuka's Buddha. It is a beautiful story, and was pretty much my introduction to philosophy. Other than that, I HATE anime, absolutely hate it. Really fuckin' hate it.
I HATE organized sports like soccer (to hell with you americans, its called football and thats it), basketball and whatever.Hate hate hate them. 'Outdoor' sports (isn't football an outdoor sport,...
Sorry if anyone might feel offended, but seriously, FUCK MATH (and chemistry too). With that out of the way, I can say that even the interesting subjects are boring at shool.

If you do piss off an INFP, then give him a hug and he will forgive you. I know I would.
This. And 'sulllen' too. Also, I love the word 'flabbergasted'. Its so... sophisticated :tongue:
ICO and Shadow Of The Colossus are the best.
But there, in the mud, was hidden a terrible, giant, carnivorous insect!
But there was no time for that, as suddenly Bacon was attacked by... FLYING VEGETABLES!!!
NP's are the bestest.
YouTube - FATES WARNING - EPITAPH Part 1 YouTube - FATES WARNING - EPITAPH Part 2 Greatest song ever. Thats a fact.
I don't know, but I'm Libra and I can relate to what you said. Too.
I usually speak very quietly, and people rarely understand what I say. Also, I tend to...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvm9UOOjwXs This band plays depressive black metal, and the whole album is excellent, but this little piano piece at the end is just... marvellous. Just beautiful...
Nothing. :sad:
I love you. :sad:
My advice? Don't worry about it. You are still young, and (hopefully) you have a long life ahead of you. So just go with the flow... Anyone can lose their virginity by, say, going to a whorehouse and...
'Indescribable'. With a single word, at least. :tongue:
You should write a book. You really should. I'd buy it.
Reading that was everyone's pleasure, I think.
I wrote a short horror story some time ago, during my Lovecraft craze. The story was absolutely terrible, but I kinda liked the first paragraph. I have never seen snow, so I don't know for sure if it...
Every fuckin' day.
Ooooh, Dream Theater is/was great! :wink: Anyway: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbStcmwzzIQ
Its Kubrick. You can't really go wrong with Kubrick. And thank you very much, I spent days trying to do this! :crazy: Now, as for my avatar... Well, its kinda like a joke, because, you know, the...
General Jack D. Ripper. And yeah, that is a memorable shot (from a memorable scene). As for my avatar... Well, I don't have any! How do I upload an avatar pic?
I also scored Interpersonal and Existential. Since everyone has already seem the description for both, I'll just leave here the description for the Renaissance Ideal (me, apparently): The...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5zYu7Ajqro This song is pretty different from his (one-man band) usual stuff, but since it is more accessible, there it is. Some might find it hard to believe that...
I can't believe this... You didn't... Oh god... :laughing:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dVhfcFci_Q Set me free and let me see All the beauty in this world Give me hope, make me believe That I can change this world and be Forever free in harmony...
I just started reading 'Brave New World'. I'm still in the beginning, but it can already be added to my 'Favorite Books' list.'
