You spend a lot of time rolling your eyes. The only way I can believe the above statement is to theorise that someone must have graffitied philosophical excerpts on the ceiling.

KontanKarite, I couldn't agree with you more. That's pretty much the point I was trying to make in my previous posts but it came out all wrong. Everything has a different level of importance to everyone. That's why I think it's not nice to shun someone because you don't agree with something they like.

That's all. Good day to you guys

Well no. The opposite of shunning is to accept or participate. Why would I want to participate? The easiest way I can say it is, "that shit aint for me."

KontanKarite, I wasn't talking about you. I was talking about people in general but I can see why you took it the wrong way.

YOu would be sadly disappointed. You have to understand that it isn't me that's not educated, it's you that has too big of an ego to see intelligence in anyone else but yourself.

I think that me and Gothicus should set up a censoring department similar to that of 1984 whereby we just change everything that Graveyard.Crow says to be more correct. As in, constantly complimenting the certain Gnet elite.

It's not true that I only see intelligence in myself, and it was stupid of you to say that, considering you have zero evidence, and tons of evidence suggesting otherwise.

Also, if you think me calling your bluff in this way would be so trivial, go ahead and prove it.
I'll be honest, and if I'm impressed, I won't lie about it.

So go ahead, tell me about some of these "very complicated books" you're so familiar with.

And what proof do you possibly have that I don't read anything other than trivial 12 year old bullshit? Other than your irrational hate for me of course? You do the SAME shit you accuse me of.
I won't name exact books because well, I could just copy and paste the names right? I can however give you some of the topics that strike my liking.
There is poetry of course, quantum physics, I really like reading myths and descriptions of ancient religions as well as some more modern spiritual material. I read a lot of theories about different dimensions and existences, ancient pagan traditions and philosophical discussions about reality in general.

p.s - next time you post something like "I don't know why I even talk to you" THINK about what you're saying. Do I hold a gun to your head? If I am SOOO beneath you, just DON'T TALK TO ME. For someone who claims to be so intelligent, why on earth can't you grasp such a simple solution.

Not in those words no, but her challenging me implies that don't you think?

P.S
you are right, and it's not just me, but NO ONE has to prove anything to you. You are not THAT important and your opinion does not dictate reality.

I don't have proof, you dumb fuck, that would be why I was ASKING FOR IT.

Quantum physics...
QUANTUM PHYSICS?!

You're gonna get burned so bad on this and you have no fucking idea.

OOOO LORDY LORDY AN INTERNET FORUM IS GOING TO BURN ME
You're forgetting that I have a life in the real world and don't take this internet bullshit as seriously as you.
The only reason I'm on here right now is because I'm sick and arguing with you distracts me.

It's ok that you don't want to read real books, but don't get all pissy and insult people because they want to challenge themselves.
Yeah, personally if it were me I would have also seen that as precisely implying that I don't read important literature.
Nevertheless, my point, not only about Twilight, but about how one does not need to lower one's standards to be entertained, is still standing, and if we remove personal responses, I think Ophelia is pretty much talking about this.

You read books on quantum physics? For enjoyment? No do you actually have any idea of what any of it means or does reading all of the big words just make you feel like there are really smart people out there who are going to solve the world's problems?

But the personal responses are there, and I'm responding to that at the moment.
Alright I agree we do not need to remove ones personal standards but doing so does not directly imply that you have now magically lost brain power. Since you don't seem to disagree with that, I think that argument is settled.
