Before you do, I feel obligated to warn you that the side-effects include, as you can see, massive spamming that may result in getting kicked out of the forum, though. :-)

Now back to the topic. We’ve spent a whole semester at college (I study philosophy) learning about the mind and trying to figure out the answer to the question whether different people see the same shade of green. As always, we’ve found no true answer. But I think that people don’t see the same shade, basing my conclusion on the existence of color-blind people. I hear there are degrees of being color-blind, so that could be a possible answer.

It’s the beer I’m having. It’s increasing my ability to read into other people’s minds and post before them, :evil sneer: . Nasty power, huh!

I have to admit I didn’t read the other posts so someone might have already said that.

Dear Soulsearcher, come on! Look at all the great writers and artists in human history! Most of them were so inspired only because they were miserable! I understand you completely. When I’m happy, I don’t feel like or have the need to do anything creative. When I’m frustrated I’m totally plugged in - I just have to get all the frustration out! There is nothing wrong with that.

Haha, I was faster than you Ames ;-) though you were much more thorough!

I think it’s too early to consider a planet a living being because to do so, it would have to have one unified consciousness, at least rudimentary. I think if you look at all the ‘things’ on the planet, they are far too individualized (humans, plants, animals, rocks, the air, whatever) for the entire planet to be considered a unity.

[quote Loredo]- why the moon appears to be so much larger on the horizon, compared to when it’s high up in the sky? God.

I think there’s a more specific / scientific answer to this, something to do with optics and atmosphere density. Don’t know what exactly, though.

As for the women’s cycle and the moon, I’ve always thought (with absolutely no reasonable basis) that it is because of something similar to the connection between Moon’s gravity and the tides on the sea. Cause they both have to do with liquids. Icky, isn’t it? Imagine living in a house with three women who all have PMS during the full moon phase. Well, you have a glimpse at my Dad’s life!

Saggezza, another great topic! ;D

Thanks. You have given me good advice (murder, haha!).

Here’s the problem: I would very much like to cut him off. That’s exactly what I did the last time. The problem is that I’ve already in a way lost a bunch of friends because of him (we were in the same group). I am not friends with those people any more because he is (if you can understand that). And that is terrible. I have lost so much because of him. I just feel like there’s nothing in the future for me. It’s like he has stolen half of the life I used to live, and that was a good life, it was a fun one, I want it back. And it’s terrible to know that going back isn’t possible. If I want to start spending time with those other people again(which I do very much!) I have to put up with him. I have to find a way to sort of ‘mentally’ cut him off.

What I really need is something to do to keep my mind off of him. Or get even with him somehow, but I have absolutely no idea how. The opposite of love is indifference, my sis tells me, and I should get there, but it’s so far away right now.

Thanks Seven. I already know how tough it is ;-)

Still I haven’t ever thought that he might be cheating with someone else. I guess there was just never any reason to think that.
I don’t know how to pull out, what exactly I have to do. I am already doing nothing. I’m not chasing after him (stopped doing that half a year ago), he’s been chasing after me these past few months, and the problem is that I let him come too close again.

Apparently he hasn’t seen his girlfriend since our last khm ‘incident’. We are also not in any kind of contact. The SOB has put me on hold again after the little ultimatum I’ve given him.

Right now I’m just pissed because of my bad luck. This is just my way of getting the bad feelings out of me. Wish I wasn’t human.

Okay. I like the idea of ‘going sane in a crazy world’. It reminds me of Philip K. Dick’s novel ‘Time out of Joint’ though that’s not really similar, but the main character thinks that he’s going crazy, while he’s actually becoming sane again. I don’t suppose you’ve read it, huh?

How do you feel now that you’ve evolved, after those ’several years’ you’ve mentioned? I feel like what is happening now cannot possibly be good for me, which is sort of the opposite to what you’ve said. I think that all these panic attacks and depressive fits are eventually only going to damage my brain. That’s also one of the things my doctor said while he was trying to persuade me to start taking antidepressants again - which I refused since I don’t want my mind to be blocked by them. Still, I’m a little worried cause I don’t feel like I’ve evolved much in the last three years (that’s how long this ‘phase’ has been lasting). Tell me what it’s like to live and think the way you do now. Did you have panic attacks too and have they stopped?

I’m really amazed at how much you understand my condition! Especially the parts about Hell and suffering, life as a movie, and definitely reference points! That’s it, I’ve lost my reference points and that’s why it feels like the world is collapsing.

I’ve regained some of my old desires (unfortunately, the most important one of them is very very bad for me). Trying to work on those now.

Thank you so much for your post again, I feel relieved in a strange way now. Maybe because you’ve made me feel like I could be important again, and I’ve been missing that lately.

Well in my time it was 18, haha… Though I think there’s a little less pressure in my country, it still exists.
There’s one thing I do disagree with, though. I don’t remember who wrote it. I think that there is definitely too much unnecessary pressure on the first time one has sex. It’s always supposed to be something *special*, cause you’re gonna *remember it the rest of your life*. You’re supposed to be in love and all that crap. I don’t agree. Maybe it’s cause of my own experience, but I think that there’s really nothing so terrible if your first time is not *absolutely perfect*. Life moves on. That’s not so important. The first time is usually not so good. With practice, you get better…

I read half of it… was afraid to continue…

I think that, emotionally, 14 is too young to have sex. It’s a little unfair that all that pressure is put on kids these days, especially boys, you’re not cool if you’re still a virgin before you’re 18. But still, I think they’re definitely not ready at that time.

Sure, but then that’s not really a union of personalities.

God no, if there’s any way, avoid dub versions of anime! The difference between Japanese original and the other kind is indescribable. A little subtitles won’t kill you.

And now back to (other?) religions. I don’t think religion was the ‘biggest cause’ of war, in fact I think it was more often just a cover. Take the Crucades for example. Do you think lords and kings and the Pope sent soldiers to Jerusalem just to kill Muslims? No. There were other circumstances involved in Europe that time. I think wars are more oftenly lead because of money or land. Religion is more of a pretext.

Thank you!

(I’ve copied your text so I can read it next time I feel bad). I have to think about it a little before I comment. It’s 7:21 a.m. here and I just got home (from being out all night) and my brain’s not working properly, so I’ll leave the actual thoughts for later.

Work on Goth, she has one of the more interesting powers.
