Happy 10 Years!@FistofGreedo thanks for the tribute! :D

You know what forget what i said it is even closer that i thought it was brain computer!!!! or artificial neurons, however you want to hype it: http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2014-02/iop-bpt021114.php

However i admit i am a little bit skeptic about how close it really is, or can get to the real deal.

Seems like a pretty awesome development though!

Unapplied knowledge is a weed looking for purpose.. but yeah, I like S3C's quote much better!

@doomroar http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/630667 just past the halfway mark, you'll find that the math of, well, everything, isn't what we were taught. The human mind is a truly holistic electrochemical sponge... hard to quantify it given our current perspective. But we are beginning to, and that's all that matters.

A seventeen minute revelation! Indeed.

I'm telling you, this kid Jordan is onto something. He's been through dozens of crappy New Age books to get at the truth of things. Anything that can explain science and God in good measure, deserve a good look-see. He's his keystone argument

Just checked... 990 favorite users on my list, and Jordan definitely got bumped |: It's getting worse! Or, more likely, a cap got put into place after I had over a thousand faves. Meh.

I should probably watch it again. Remember thinking it was something genius, but as I can nae imagine what genius it was the point probably didn't have as big an impact as it should have...

A cap below a thousand? :/ That'd be a strange cap... I noticed the favorites system is bugging when you delete favorites though, can only delete one at a time. Though I haven't checked in some time, might be fixed...

Whoops, here's his math thing... http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/600446
It's a bit off topic, but knowledge is a uphill battle, and you gotta start at the bottom.

Ah, shorter than the last one too! :D Don't think I've watched this, will give it a shot tomorrow when my mind's clear.

Dropping those dropkics on all those comments, rhyming when the timing is itching for the ining but what was in the beginning that we were debate-ing? you know i really can't remember by this point what our initial stand point in the topic were XD.

I got 2 wisdom teeth maybe 3? i cant remember since they didn't really hurt as they appeared they didn't leave much of a memorable impression in me, they were just more teeth growing out, so i think that people exaggerate, or maybe my dentist was high and those were normal molars XD hahaha.

Ledge is good, but if you go by the edge then you will get the thrills!

Oh man all that paper! interesting.

Lol wrong vid, well Mr @VicariousE i remember that one quite well actually http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/600446 and i also remember that i didn't agree completely with Jordan mostly because there was a need for some deeper explanation on both his vision and concepts http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/0d289ff5e147da333f5122e66c0faa4a however his reply was not really all that much help, indeed on the contrary it made got even more lost, so i send him a PM that day, but i didn't got a reply, basically i asked him to define the concepts of light and consciousness as well as the Unified Field.

But that is not the first time that this happens, in most of his videos this occurs, he is great until a point when suddenly he skips a crucial explanation, that never gets really solved, however he takes it as a given, that everyone knows the part he didn't touched.

http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/622860 this is the last video i commented on, i don't care no more about it, for real what is the point of asking if you don't get an answer? and when you do the thing couldn't be more ambiguous?

About the originalos of these dropkicks, I think it was.. no that's not it. Some emotional response blockage, and why do Chinese eat with chopsticks? We are definitely getting off topic. :P

Oh, sounds like you got them removed then?

A killer thriller! A pack of action! And if somebody with a trampoline's on-the-street, just might go for comedy. :P

Indeed. :) I was actually searching for a report I read a few years back that some Russians were experimenting with using regular paper as an HD, as actual storage, not just something you print. It probably wasn't real paper, but it looked like paper... I think. Couldn't find the link to that though, stumbled upon this instead.

Hmm, not my discussionm I guess but that light theory's one I've been curious about lately. Did you know there are people who strive to live only on light, without food/sleep/etc? The 'white light' people see when they die could be compared to the Buddhist's Nirvana, they claim it's a place for replenishing energies, but Nirvana is just a mental state (which leads you to question what importance the body really has) whereas all other religions see the light as the passageway to the afterlife... which if it does coincide with the Buddhist approach, might be the same light used for replenishing and could be linked to multiple lives and disprove most main religions. Though as it's a mental state you don't need to die to reach it, but anyway,, that's just something I've been reading and thinking about lately. With your views on science I don't expect you'll consider it the same!

@Doomroar You're right, it's a tough nut of facts that don't jibe well with regular math, but he's describing points of interest, not the routes between them. And let's be frank, this stuff just is not taught academically. It's easy to get pissed that science is still in a big catch-up phase, despite our rapid, recent advances.

Word.

@VicariousE Sigh... really is not that i wanted a detailed exposition of everything, i just wanted to at least understand the idea behind the concepts, so i could at least agree or not with whatever he says, but if you tell me something like "Source Consciousness is the infinite field of awareness of the Unified Field".

That is fine, it's actually an answer... but i have no idea what Source Consciousness is, or what the infinite field is, or that this infinite field is aware, or what awareness is in this sense, or what the unified Field is.

All those are foreign concepts to me.

I got something similar with CyberD when we touched the subject of the "Soul" (for some reason), but at least we managed to get to an idea of what the soul is or at least does (i think we did), so even if i don't agree with CyberD at least i know what he means when he talks about the soul, but with Jordan i have nothing, if Jordan ever mentions the soul in one of his videos... is he talking about what i know by Soul, what CyberD knows by Soul, or something completely different? so i ask him: what is this soul you mention here? and sure if i am lucky he will tell me: ah well soul is A and C in the geometry of everything. But then what are A and C supposed to be? and really the same goes for the geometry of everything, i know more about that one, but i still have no idea of what it certainly is, and you could say, well the same goes for gravity in the end it's still some mystery, what are "gravitons" even supposed to be? granted is an hypothetical particle, it may not even exist, but at least if i search for it i can get an idea of what the idea is about then agree or not with it.

Likewise both gravitons and geometry of everything require of some specialized knowledge, that i know i don't have, so it is clear that i wont know completely what gravitons are, but i can at least say that they are a hypothetical massless particles that are supposed to mediate the force of gravitation, from there i have to search for "spin" in quantum mechanics and so and so, and they are accessible i just a search the words and i start getting definitions, and a context, and a field of study, however! if i search "geometry of everything" at best i find this https://www.simonsfoundation.org/quanta/20130917-a-jewel-at-the-heart-of-quantum-physics/ but is this even the same thing Jordan was talking about?

Ah yeah, it all started with poetry, and that tendency to dive too deep into the depths of meaning, a poem example that suddenly spiraled into a debate on the human core... it all comes back to me now! :D He could make videos answering all the questions he gets btw, that'd surely be appreciated by a batch of people.

Haha offtopic what is that? we never deviated in our conversations!(delusion at its finest)

Na i still have all my teeth, is just that as they come out they don't hurt at all, i am sure those were wisdom teeth, because well numbers.

When it comes to comedy on the streets with tampon lines, is all about bananas condoms and the birds and the bees.

Haha both sound interesting, the closest to that i have heard is conductive ink to make circuits on paper (and a bunch of other surfaces).

I have heard a rumor about people trying to live with only light as food source, but i really have no info about it, but for real... how? within 3 days or so they should die of dehydration, forget about starvation just the fact of not drinking water is enough.

As for the "white light" no idea man, i sincerely got lost, because as i understand it, if you attain Nirvana you are reborn spiritually, but you still conserve your flesh, while in the other religions you need to die first not mentally but physically, so the differences are kinda big, and yet i don't see how previous lives come to play here, specially when in the first you retain your body, you could say that you connect with your other lives once you attain Nirvana and now your true self inhabits your body, but... mmmh, na, i just don't see it, theology is not really my forte, and to unite the reincarnation cycles in Buddhism with the unique souls of other religions seems challenging, because for starters, i don't really understand all those concepts, i mean we already talked about the soul, but here is another cake... what is Nirvana? like really, what is that true-self anyway? i have no idea.

Haha, yeah poetry, C.S. Lewis right? haha.
Word, a video of Q&A would be awesome!

lol. Least those chopsticks were off topic. :P

Got it. Yeah it seems to be different for everyone, I have a buddy who pulled out all four just as a precaution, another who's never had any trouble at all... don't know about the rest, haven't spoken to many people about wisdom teeth hmm... @VicariousE do you have any wisdom teeth?

(cont.) I have an urge to purge some debris.

Ah, it's all about the paper nowadays. :D The thing with these Russian experiments was that the total storage quota could be much larger than a regular mechanic HD, despite the lack of mass. Really wonder what happened to that, starting to wonder if it was a hoax or something... though if that's the case, news sites were fooled as well.

Yeah logically it'd be lethal! But if you believe (as they do) that everything is made up of energy (which it actually is, btw, though not in the form they believe - according to the science we 'know') you don't need to consume material to survive, only energy. I don't know about the food aspect, but I've heard of a few who have no trouble surviving with incredibly little sleep... so it's an intriguing idea.

According to Buddhists it's a mental state of mind, unrelated to the body, you can reach it when you live, but also when you die. Even if you're reborn you pass through Nirvana before starting over; it's all that white light. In that case, the mind would be considered separate to the body, like a manifestation of the soul (here we go again lol)... yeah, other religions don't have the same focus on meditation, that ambition of 'transcending the body', but since people of all religions (even those of no religion) supposedly see the light when they die, then it could all be linked together. As for the previous lives thing, I guess I get that from the 'Many Men, Many Masters' reading... but just disregard that aspect, if there's an afterlife or not is irrelevant, but if you can reach the same state of being when your alive as when you die, it should hint at how there is another plain of existence that we are shielded/keep ourselves away from. It's an interesting concept I think though I don't believe it strongly enough to really embrace the thought pattern I guess I'd need to try it myself. Nirvana is just a state of being, it's not a place to be, it's a way to be. And there's no truth, so true-self is a relative concept. But his is all philosophy of course, no science, no fact, no idea. :P

Yupp.

Those chopsticks where all over the topic, like Asians eating ramen!

Yeah i some times find part of my gums still covering (let me check), yeah still covering part of one of the lower wisdom teeth, ha is a funny feeling to move it with the tongue.

All that burning debris is going to make things hot!

Lol well you know how most journalist are, they just jump to get the sensational news, and don't really go deep into it, so they getting fooled is not that crazy or rare.

Wow hold it, it is for real? you have to tell me more of this (apparent nonsense), because sure how do they even assimilate that light? not even plants can live only with light and air... as for the sleep i guess that would be easier to do (compared to a life with no food!), but the health effects should become apparent quite early, wonder what they do or how much they are sleeping per week, the whole thing sounds unreal really.

Well of course there must be a soul, i mean if there is no body but somehow a consciousness still exist... then soul must be the answer (dat soul XD), you know how did they got that light when they die anyway? like the first time, did someone died and then resurrected and started talking about the light? or someone else just started implementing it on their dogma and from there on everyone who had near death experiences started to talk about this light, that was culturally implanted into their world? lol big words yo! this is not philosophy, this is metaphysics! sure at some point philosophy was plagued with such things, but we live after The Age of Enlightenment!
So i did some wikipedian searching and found out that Nirvana in traditional Hinduism requires the self to become Brahman by going beyond oneself, so you turn into some kind of god version of yourself, while in Buddhism what you do is separating yourself, emptying oneself in order to ultimately be able to live without desires, without distractions which in turn facilitates the religious practices, it seems that while they are both similar they are both different.
So i guess the Buddhist one is easier to understand than the classical one, which is more esoteric, and thus more weird, i still don't get it all that well.

If the topic is Ramen, then it is all over!

Ah, I had that for a long time, funny feeling too, but for me it was momentarily painful, I think I eventually tried to chew off some of the flaps of skin... don't remember if that's how I got rid of them or if they just disappeared by themselves though...

In the parking lot with cars sparking shocks and blowing off their tops!

That's true, but I can't remember any other times I've read any false news... apart from The Onion. :P

Hard to find a neutral source of information on the topic, but here's a start:
http://science.howstuffworks.com/innovation/edible-innovations/breatharian.htm
http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/jun/14/living-on-light-without-food

Yeah, it sounds unreal. Just skimmed the above, but it seems to refer to those attemptint to live off of sunlight, not really the 'inner-light-state-of-being' and yes it seems like water is the problem. Even plants need water to survive...

That's the spirit! I mean soul. I mean metaphors. :P Yeah, people that have been resurrected (been resuscitated or shocked back to life, for example) have talked about the light, plenty of people have come to some kind of epiphany after seeing it, no matter if their were/are religious or not. So if the soul is (as it seems you also think :) then what's the world? What are the real limitations? It's like the Matrix you know, break free, find new truths - kind of idea. :)

Don't know if it's become a dogma with time though, maybe people imagine the light without seeing it just because they've heard ot if; maybe the light is an effect of the brain shutting down and has nothing to do with an otherworldly experience, but it seems the light is all but damaging so that doesn't seem logical.

It's a mesh of metaphysics and philosophy when there are no validated facts. :) Yeah! We live in the age of white lightenment! :P Maybe.

Huh, didn't know about Hinduism. I have easier to relate to Buddhism, probably because of how there is no higher entity controlling everything, the ones who do become 'gods' are regular people who attain Nirvana and decide to help out - according to their faith. But this brings the question of fate into a new light, because to reach Nirvana they must sacrifice their selves; live for others, and thus, they have no choice but to help others. So maybe there's really someone else luring behind the scenes hmm...

You mean Hinduism is the classic; Buddhism a modern version of it?! I thought it was the other way.

They eat it thoroughly! liking the bowl and all, it was kinda passionate, Toriko stile.

Really? no pain for me, i do remember i got a headache with one but that is about it, it was quite a boring experience for me this growing teeth thingy haha.

It was quite a kinky scene that day, topless cars sparking with their lustful open engines and their dimes blown all over their vines, and wine so much wine, they were whining while winning while drunk, what a bunch of punks!

Seems like quite some of them have died while trying or get really close to death, the "successful" ones don't see all reliable, and it would be nice if Naveena Shine doesn't becomes a pirate with scurvy XD.

But man i don't think that their soul, is the same soul we talked about i mean, that makes no sense XD (unless i forgot our definition of soul haha).

Maybe is the brain trying to cope on its last moments, trying to get with therms to the event of finding itself in the path of death, so it emulates memories of light to distract itself...

We actually live in modernity, some even say post modernity, and the age of enlightenment is quite old already haha (were does the white part comes from anyway? is because it happened manly in Europe? lol), but really the "enlightenment" title doesn't really helps with a theme about attaining enlightenment(Nirvana) XD.

?? son't really get it, if their religion ask them to live for others, and with Nirvana they get to clear their minds of all selfsentered thoughts, desires and distractions... then isn't that just perfect, think about it, they just became "perfect" altruist, we could even say, that they are no longer humans, since their human self is death, their selfish nature is no longer there, i think that is not really there being someone else manipulating, but rather there being no one at all to take control, so their lives is lived for others and not for themselves. Granted i may be misinterpreting this.

They eat it vicious, all that's deliciously nutritious!

Heh, well don't be disappointed! I'd rather have had it that way. Seems all people are different. It's like drilling teeth, some people don't even notice it, I must have my nerves near the surface cause drilling is hellish, even with anasthetics. I went to a laser dentist last time; will do so from now on! What a blissful experience it was! Silence.. the smell like popcorn... pain-free. :P

I,.. I don't know what to say. I cannot outshine that orgynal description of carlife! It's like a 1958 Cadillac 60 Special.

Yupp, the ones who die are the ones people pay attention to. :) I bet there are some living the life that the world won't ever know about; who don't care for making themselves known. True.

Why would the brain emulate light to distract itself? :/ That seems kind of counter-productive. But if it doesn't serve a 'purpose' it might be just like how a screen goes black when it shuts down; our mind goes white when we do.

lol, maybe living a life under a blacklight will let you come to entirely new realizations. :P It's like Gone in 60 Seconds.

Is there a better title? :P Of course, words can never fully express the splendour of that sublime state of mind!! As for the age of enlightenment being a thing of times past, it's a constant thing. we just don't pay it so much attention now because certain events were placed in history; the breakthroughs that happen now are so unfathomable it's like they won't fit in the books, we can't take in all this new knowledge, or make sense of it, or give it a purpose. Like: the light bulb illuminates our homes, it serves a purpose. Now there's grey matter floating around in space, but do people want to know? Do people want to know that the air they breath is full of this stuff? Eh... I lost the red line there, but what I'm saying is: the revelations of today are so much larger.

Nah, you interpreted that way better than I did!

Yeah Hinduism is waaaaaaaaay more old than Buddhism, remember that Siddhartha was born in India, and it took quite some time for him to pass from prince to monk, and then he had to get married have a son, then he escaped to pursuit the world of stoicism (while the whole place was a mid wars), pass the trails, find the trails as something pointless, develop his philosophy, fight the cast system, then become enlightened, preach the way, and finally die of diarrhea thanks to mushroom poisoning.

And that is just with the original Buddha, i don't really know about all "his reincarnations", as far as i know they may as well be a bunch of posers, like this guy who thinks he is Jesus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsuo_Matayoshi so yeah, in the case of the reincarnations of Buddha lets just add, the delusion + a world of mysticism + faith + religion dogma + a little bit of continuity = and we have people convinced that Buddha has come back, i don't know if Tenzin Gyatso thinks and sees himself as the reincarnation of Buddha, but by this point even if he likes it or not, he has to bear with the tittle, lets apply this to the past, and now we get people pretty much living certain of reincarnation being real, specially if we say that every enlightened one has become one with Buddha, in that case is not Buddha reincarnating, but people getting enlightenment, and now i guess we can see the obvious misunderstandings.

You know i like this phrase: "if you meet the Buddha on the road kill him." it is related to Zen practice, more exactly Koan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C5%8Dan and is in short, the Buddhist version of skepticism, is nice to see how they have these things, while everyone else is blinded by faith.

Yeah, I remember reading that... but somehow I always thought Buddhism was the ancient philosophy; that maybe he embraced that before forming his own religion. Shaolin monks... the ancients... feels like they've been around forever. :) As for Buddhist reincarnations, you could say that Buddhists believe that everyone is a 'Buddha', or has the potential to become one. Being a reincarnation is one thing, but being a 'Buddha' is like being enlightened, it's become a symbol rather than an identity, like you say.

Ah, interesting. Yeah it's nice they don't have that absolutism in their faith, though I wonder if they still actively question their own religion, like the founders did... probably not the same way.

Man I didn't know that thing about mushroom poisoning! Or that Asian Jesus. Crazy.

I used my wisdom teeth when I had them, which was probably around 7-8 years after they fully grew and then got pulled. They were never a problem, caused any pain, or posed a threat to the rest of my teeth. A cavity finally appeared on one of them, and as you say- they're hard to brush (and floss) and the dentist's suggestion was just to get them removed, rather then fill them (and probably have to do it again the future). But I haven't had any difficulties eating or anything now that they're gone. And while it's a case by case basis, I was only in moderate pain for one day (only had to resort to painkillers once), the procedure was simple, and I was completely healed in a week.

overall point: organisms try to be biologically conservative, they lose unnecessary appendages over very long periods of time, to make room for newer or modified ones that helps them thrive better in their (new) environment. With that said, perhaps 'conservative' wasn't the best choice of words, as 98% of human DNA is noncoding! what that means is, only 2% of our DNA are actual genes that are turned 'on' that create proteins necessary to maintain our health and development from a zygote to adult. Makes me wonder how much features that we've accumulated and still retain from past species that we've evolved from. What if a single cell was sent off to an advanced civilization with advanced technology in a different galaxy...what could they decrypt about life on Earth, its species, and the biological functions we had?

About the brain- no idea what its physical limits may be, but by the time we have evolved to reach 1000 years, surely we will have evolved the physical brain mass and capacity to store such a lifetime of memories. If anything, there would be technology to store such on separate (organic?) media and mechanisms to even search or brain for specific subjects, or even review what we did on one day...i find it fascinating to think about. Put a small sensor on your forehead, or an earplug of some type- "ahh, what was it that I was doing February 16, 1995?". there would be no need for cramming on tests, amongst other things. Memorization wouldn't be a factor in schooling, but creative thinking, categorization, and overall intelligence would be taken to new heights.

Ah, sounds reassuring. I've had some bad experiences with dentists here in Sweden, should maybe travel abroad if I get any serious work done... though so far it looks like all teeth are doing OK. Went to one dentist a couple of years back who found 8 cavities, I went to another one to get a new assessment... and he only found one, and to top it off one that the previous one hadn't found. Doesn't really enforce my trust in the industry... btw, I read recently that the US are working with ozone treatment to prevent and partially heal cavities, is that something you've tried/know about?

I wish we'd have evolved through crocodiles, that infinite-regeneration-of-teeth feature is something I'd have liked to try. :) Would be interesting indeed.

Hmm, external brains maybe? That'd be interesting. If we fully understood the brain, it should be possible to store information in a similar manner, would be interesting with the ability to store, transfer and share all forms of sensory information... it'd be an inspiring world, but at the same time it'd be pretty complicated to live in. With that technology the expectations on each individual would be way higher than it is now.

"Abstract nonsense is the pinnacle of intelligence" -S3C the modern day Sophist

Hmm, wisdom: new word learned.

Oh man, is reading other peoples dental life that i find out nice my mouth has been doing, 0 here, maybe is because i am not a fan of sugar in general? i don't really floss, but i brush constantly, getting to the wisdom teeth is not really that hard for me, mmh, weird.

Crocodiles are cool! but inst there a mammal with teeth regeneration out there? i don't like that sun warming dependency they have.

I like the earplug more, the less invasive the better, you know because paranoia and stuff, plus health constrains, and there is also the operation, though it is probably that the forehead implant would be cheaper than the earplug, mmmh fuck it, it would still be awesome to have regardless, worth the risk.

Actually he didn't really embrace it, he had to fight all the other monks of that age, because he was kinda the communist fella, and dem monks were bourgeois yo!

Yeah, it is probably the ones on the high post that are allowed to come with the questions, and is probably that those have grown complacent enough as to not bother with questioning the thing.

Yeah, since they eat what they could, and what was collected (they didn't accepted money only clothes and food), who knows where those mushrooms came from.
Lol crazy, crazy, crazy Japan.

Yeah I started caring for my teeth way too late. Haven't exactly been eating a lot of junk food but I guess there's still been plenty of sugar (carbohydrates are all converted to sugar too, btw... though probably not relevant to teeth). Went days sometimes without brushing, didn't care/think of consequences I guess. Good habits save a lot o work!

Hmm: http://phys.org/news/2013-05-alligator-dental-regeneration-tooth-humans.html

Can't find much info on mammals though, article mentions that 'extant mammals' can regrow one tooth at a time, and another type (our type I guess) not at all.

Forehead sensor? Took a while to figure out what that was in response to. :P

lol good knowing.

Yeah, but then again if they're doing the right theing there's no need to question it.

Oh yeah! And I seem to recall they're not allowed to refuse anything either, they place their trust fully in other people. It's like that act of selflessness cancels out the more selfish act of relying on others for food. Though I guess plenty do make their own...

(Damn replied this in the wrong order, anyway...)

Nutritious like a nutria on virtuous fish shops with some bishops, and equally senseless.

Cadillacs, now i am thinking about Outkast! southern playalistic cadillac muzik (write it without looking!)

Those living the life? sure the after life! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcYppAs6ZdI)

Well you know, the same way the brain emulates a consciousness? it emulates light to distract itself from death (according to myself).

Well you know euro-centrist mentality makes you a little bit paranoid each time the word white is involved without apparent link to the theme haha, i blame the Greeks.

Wait what? sure the revelations are larger, but we can document them just the same, plus in the age of information to spread these findings is even easier (yeah, unless we get another inq).

lol, noticed

Are these cheesy pieces of wheat biscuits or what is this?

Ahh, memories. Write without looking? I could type that in my sleep! Southerplayalisticadillacmuzik ... oh damn I missed an n! Popping in that playlist right now though.

lol, haven't heard that joke before. :P

Hmm, but if we have some form of soul, consciousness would be included no?

Didn't know it was called euro-centrist mentality! Soon as word black's involved the potential for racism pops into mind for me. Sweden's at a phase now where racism is used as an excuse for anything, people call out 'racism' as soon as people speak of limiting immigration, saying that pensioners should get as much allowance as immigrants... people use the word without knowing what it means, they ban ice-cream and dessert names with the word 'black' in them thinking it may offend something. Getting a bit twisted....

The revelations are more abstract maybe? They can be documented, but can't be given a title you know? Not one everybody understands. True, the challenge now is finding useful knowledge in the stuffy stream.

(the hell my comment send itself when i miss pressed Esc)

So like i was saying: yeah, unless we get another inquisition, we are still in the age of enlightenment, or like it is trendy to say nowadays, post-enlightenment.

Malware check?

Enlightenment through posts is what I'm all about. :)

(ok this one is in order and by order i mean i start with the with the 2nd/3rd comment and then the 1st one last...)

Is a nutria eating fish, that was fished by Jesus and sold by a bishop at a church by the river...

Is always that n in southern, wonder why is that?

Ah but there is the problem IF we have a soul... if, XD.

You have black ice cream? that is not called chocolate or coffee? intriguing.

Na but what i am talking about is a different thing, beyond an apparent excuse to diminish the problem of racial discrimination, here give it a look http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocentrism is mainly brought up in history since as it is taught it always starts in Europe, then it moves to the Americas, and it ignores the rest of the world, but it happens in all other fields really. So when you said white lightenment, i couldn't help it and remember that at that time important parts of the movement like the Irish or the Jews were ignored for not being all that white, and hell those are white as they get, now just think about everyone else then, and now add the people that still thing those other parts weren't really important, and now we have an academic problem in how things are taught. But that was not the case at all here, thus i was a victim of euro-centrist mentality.

Why wouldn't you be able to gave them a title accessible to everyone? like Enlightenment through posts! (Malware checked, it probably wasn't Esc, but then just what did i press? i know i did something... my hand was all over the place as i was typing.)

I don't drink soda so carbohydrates are not a prob. Oh man i remember those days, when you were able to get a week of a successful rotation from bed to computer desk and to bed again, shower? brushing? eating? hell no! the PC calls! XD.

Nice. damn mammalian mouth care sucks (oh the puns!).

Only if they are doing the right thing, and how do they know if they stop questioning? PON PON PON!

They probably picked them somewhere nearby and well... not everyone is an expert on fungi, but man what an uncool death he had.

(alrighty then!)

So a bishop sold the fish? Jesus could've made a bolder dish, maybe made it glow with boulder-like smouldering bits of Macaroni chips.

Hmm, true... even though they lost the war. Odd.

That is a problem/question/mystery(with no answer). :D

Yeah, liquorice flavor. You don't have that?

Ah, seems like a sentiment leftover from a time when the rest of the world was new and unknown... doesn't seem like it has anything to do with Irish people btw, haven't they always lived within Europe too? It's had some pretty bad uses over the years, this viewform... btw, do you know if there's a word for the American viewpoint, viewing the world from an entirely American-perspective?

Well because it's no longer clear what purpose everything serves. I mean back when it was revealed the Earth rotated around the sun, or how the tide worked, or that the moon affected the tide, all these things had a direct effect on us, on faith and function etc, but now we are exploring so tiny details or so far away reaches of the universe that you can't really perceive their effect or make use of that knowledge... unless maybe you're a scientist. lol yeah, enlightenment to a certain extent!

Something like Tab Enter?

Carbohydrates are in bread, pasta, pizza, pastries... pretty much everything. :P Haha yeah, I did plenty of eating though, but health and hygene? Naaah... it's amazing how easy it was back then!

lol, indeed

PONY!

Unless he was intentionally poisoned? Ya never know...

The bishop was stingy, if they made the dish more trendy, they know there wouldn't be plenty, for the gently nutria, plus Jesus was feeling lazy that day.

IF it exist, if... we would find an answer, if...

Touche.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americentrism that leads with ease to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americanization a product of imperialism, however some people say that imperialism doesn't exist and that is just an illusion created by globalization, funny that they say that, but i wonder how do they explain coca-cola spreading american songs across the world? colonization has yet to ended.

No project or investigation gets funded for the sake of it, the investors are promised a practical use, and then they release the money, which is then used to investigate those far away things to then by used here.
Enlightenment with limits? how?

It was probably Tab enter.

But of course, haha somehow i made the direct link to carbohydrate drinks. Lol i definitively didn't eat beyond dinner, that served as lunch and breakfast, but i don't have a PC addiction!

Ponies everywhere nowadays.

Is a possibility, they tried to kill him quite a lot of times, among them there was this insistent ex-disciple that ended convinced of the path, but i forgot the name.

Yesterday I ate a bar of Nutri-Nick, if you see one best be quick, don't choose just pick. And chew don't lick. Like juice they're rich and huge - a hit. I knew as soon I bit.

<? elseif (statement) = ???

Woo, gotta love how the Chinese article on Americentrism is more extensive than the American one... Americanization seems like a much more established concept though, and it's true, it's happening all over. I think the reason the US are so successful at spreading their culture is because, in difference from a great deal of other countries, they're proud of it. Patriotism is a rare thing nowadays, and the US really use it to their advantage.

Well I'm sure there's a reason for everything, but it might not be one for all of mankind, I'd think most modern-day research is funded by corporations in the interest of profit, or if it is for the betterment of humankind, it's angled, it's according to government agenda or the interests of a certain group/person. But I'm getting sidetracked here... what I meant earlier was how much of our current research isn't as perceptible as it used to be. For example, you can't see grey matter, you can't see cells, you can't see atoms (without devices). But you can see the sun, and how it moves (if you understand how the Earth is moving), you can feel how gravity works, etc. New revelations are much more abstract oftentimes. Not sure what I meant by the 'enlightenment with limits', think it was some pun on the enlightemenment in form of posts but since I don't remember it it must not have been that great. :/

Mystery solved! :D

Carbohydrate drinks? Gotta look that up... ah, I used to eat a ton. I ate breakfast, then I ate some more and then I ate lunch, and I ate some snacks, had tea, ate some more, ate dinner, ate a late night meal... well maybe not every day, in phases, and at least three meals per day... I think. Might have skipped breakfast or lunch but I probably ate an extra meal later on to make up for it. Don't need as much food now but... I like eating, I want to keep eating at the same pace as I used to. :( Is that denial I hear?

Everywhere you look. Even with the horses! It's crazy.

Ah... maybe his death served a purpose then; led someone on the right path, made him a martyr, let him reach Nirvana... btw what do you think about the band?

You killed the gently nutria to make nutritious nutri-nick!? you know he was homies with Jesus right?

If a soul exist we will find answers about it, since it exist... if not, then not.

Still both could be longer, my guess is that a lot of Americentrism is being disguised under globalization, also the US patriotism gets too crazy even to unhealthy levels, what helps them spread is not really their patriotism, but that they won the war, their initial economic success, and the "american dream" a dream that is really fake but some people still believe in, then there was the subsequent wars on terrorism and drugs that helped to portray the US as a country that defends freedom and peace, while wagging and promoting war elsewhere, all those things helps into spreading and selling an image.

Ah well as knowledge and its fields gets more and more specialized the terminology and its parts also become more well... specialized, and while is complex it is still intelligible once it is explained, because that is also part of science, you know kids are supposed to be graduating from high school knowing at least both Marxism and a second level of fluid physics, but i damn well know i didn't see any Marxism theory until i started U, and i had to get lost on my initial career first!

How do you play video games and eat at the same time!!!???? Denial? pff i am perfectly ok! *starts trembling*

How do they reproduce anyway? is like when they crossbreed dogs of different sizes.

Nevermind is great, not really a fan of Bleach but is kinda good, and i somehow feel they started to lack a bit on In Utero, i think i prefer the Foo Fighters, but Nirvana has this thing that the FF lacks which i still don't know what is.

Oh my dog my blog is flawed. O_o

But what is existence? Where do we exist? Where does everything else? Is our dimension the only one, is what we see really there, is what we know really true?

Indeed, and that dream is a part of their patriotism, that's why they love their country! Well that's why some do; that's probably why other people look up to the US as well. It's not always the most opportune place, but I suppose the land of opportunity has some reason behind it. Another question is: is this American dream what breeds psychos, or is it just so that psychos move to America to live that dream? Considering they have the largest portion of them out of any country in the world... that thing about war btw, I'm surprised the Japanese have embraced American culture so much. They were nuked... twice... and suddenly American stuff's all that's trendy. Can't be just a form of obedience can it?

I don't think I learned either of those... with so much to learn, it must be difficult placing focus on the real essentials. Btw, modern science in some fields makes me think of computer work. There's so much work nowadays that relies on computers, that doesn't actually exist. I couldn't be typing this without a computer. And this doesn't really exist. This text isn't actually real. Strange world...

There's usually a key to pause the game. It's a revelation I kknow! :D lol

Artificial insemination maybe? IDK, topic change!!

I've always felt the Foo Fighters were a bit too light-hearted somehow, Nirvana felt real; gritty, might've been all those suicidal tendencies swirling around in Coabin's head that manifested itself in the music.. or maybe that's a perception we get just knowing about them hmm... Smells Like Teen Spirit is just awesome though, so much energy!!
