'I agree with you broadly, but not so much about your specific examples. Jokes can be made in poor taste or at inappropriate moments, so that's not really of particular concern to me. I don't know...
I'd have to read the book before I can give a real opinion on it, but the idea that there are no fundamental differences between the sexes is obviously absurd and I am not sure why so many people...
This is actually the only racist/sexist thing in this thread.
The OP was being incredibly facetious.... Pregnancy is pretty incredible though, the female reproductive system blows my mind every time I have to study it. And it's something that no man can do...
Yes.
Pfffft, blondes wish they were me. My waist length chestnut locks are the stuff of legend.
Usually around $0.60. Sometimes upwards of $1 if I really feel like binging on five cent candies. Tuition yes, rent no. No fees. 9,002
What the ever loving fuck are you talking about?
I am writing to express my desire to be considered for the position of Sundae's girlfriend. I think you will find that my experience and skills are highly relevant to both poverty and companionship,...
Depending what we mean by the term, I don't really think people are getting more well-rounded in any meaningful sense. Men and women have always been encouraged to have both masculine and feminine...
Lol, I was gonna say I really don't think 5L is seriously suggesting any of this. He is like the last person I can imagine arguing that men have no obligation to protect or care for their wives. ...
I have celtic folk music stuck in my head, and also my foot is bleeding.
I am now simultaneously nostalgic and oddly aroused.
Because my old one disappeared due to what I imagine is a PerC glitch, and I couldn't readily find the exact one I had before. I found this one though and thought I'd try it on for size. A trial...
Thank you for your question, IDTS. Unfortunately, you basically just described my life. One of the many hardships that I have had to face over the last twenty some odd years is my simultaneous desire...
Being a Christian whiteskin with centuries of wealth in the family is a pretty good gig, not gonna lie. I highly recommend it. I also recommend SPF 60 or higher and a pair of aviator sunglasses....
I always knew it was him whenever somebody I didn't recognize started being reasonable in a debate thread. Not even kidding. It's that rare. That makes me feel....
I forgot about this thread. Lol. Good times. And as for your question Wellsy, all of my experiences with everybody are characterized by severe rejection and despair. Well that got dark.
I actually agree. I didn't care for the member at all but sometimes the sheer negativity exhibited made me feel a twinge of guilt. Or sympathy at the very least. That was not a happy person. ...
I mean that when a person says that something is true, what they generally mean is that the statement or model corresponds accurately to reality. We do not grasp the external world directly, and...
I am really annoyed by how weak some people are. I know that sounds bad, and I don't wish anything bad upon them, but it gets under my skin. I know this woman, a friend of a friend, and she makes...
Actually, I just got sidetracked I guess and forgot to respond. I sometimes do that when things get busy. My apologies, I'll try to formulate some thoughts later today.
Nevermind. I don't even want to get involved.
Because we can't not: (A dialogue between Socrates and Protagoras) Protagoras: Truth is relative. It is only a matter of opinion. Socrates: You mean that truth is mere subjective opinion?
Lol, damnit SilverFalcon, look what you've done. In case anybody wants to know what actually happened, no, British pirates did not kidnap American citizens and take them back across the Atlantic...
I think your history is a little lacking.
Swap out gay for homosexual and this looks very different. One can speak of both homosexuals (people who are homosexual) and homosexuality (the orientation or state of being homosexual). This speaks...
The source of all life and pleasure. Truth is to be found only in the pussy. I have one.
I don't know, is it? I haven't had cable in like eight years, don't watch television, rarely watch new movies, don't have any social media accounts besides PerC, don't read magazines, and don't...
I wouldn't call it genocide but obviously many white traits are polygenic and recessive, and therefore less likely to be expressed in mixed race offspring. I guess if somebody were deliberately...

I would enjoy that, too. Particularly Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? I know that book like the back of my hand, wrote like a three thousand word essay on it for a third year philosophy course a...
I don't really care for anime, just was browsing this thread and decided to watch this clip because I wanted to see what Silver Falcon thinks INTJs are like. Spot. On. Um, like to an...
My twenty seventh birthday came and went without incident. I had crepes for breakfast, rendered thin and pleasantly rubbery from the grassfed cow's milk and chicken eggs. I drowned them in maple...
I wear a lot of dark and neutral colours as well. I wouldn't consider myself highly fashionable, but I do have a distinctive style. Staples of my wardrobe include dark wash skinny jeans, black or...
I donno, sort of. Like in the same way every human being is at some point. But generally, no, that has not been my experience. I have always had a stable group of friends, gotten along well with...
Said it before and I'll say it again - I don't see the big deal about the memo. I did not find it offensive, just some claims that I agreed with and some claims which I did not. This is a...
You correctly point out that this is not an empirical question, but then go on to say that there is overwhelming evidence that consciousness dies with the physical body and proceed to ask for...
I say this with all due respect, but I find your communication style difficult to follow sometimes. Or, at the very least, rather non-intuitive. I also think I'm coming down with a fever right now so...
Yeah, I mean, I guess you could equally regard life as a process rather than a thing - a conceptualization which skates a little close to vitalism - but to me life is a distinct biological...
I have toyed with this idea in the past. However, I believe such a conceptualization requires that consciousness be fundamentally immutable. If all matter were destroyed and there were no antennae to...
Eh, I don't think I agree with you here. We are nitpicking over what people mean when they say something is dead. I think there is a perfectly logical and intuitive biological account of death...
Helium is an asphyxiant, you can die from inhaling too much. When you inhale helium the oxygen in your lungs gets displaced. Obviously too much oxygen depletion and you pass out, more than that and...
The purpose of the thread is to provide your reasoning for what you think happens to consciousness/conscious experience after death. Your response is that nothing happens - ie, there is nothing that...
I think he's questioning the premise that death is the absence of experience, by definition. Which is why he opened by saying that most people believe death to be like a kind of dreamless sleep, but...
I wouldn't say I'm sure of my position, but I think that consciousness ceases at death. I think that the brain facilitates the mind and if the brain ceases to function (dies) then the mind can no...
Sounds like good customer service I guess and I don't see any immediate reason for concern. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, and all that....
This has started to strike me as an odd question as of late. If my life is a river, winding towards a sea whose proximity is obscured by rocks and trees, then what does it mean to ask if I am happy...
Literally never heard this word before in my life. Use whatever avatar you want, who cares if people call you that? Such a small fraction of the population is even going to know what it means.'
