Looking forward to part 3. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 3:07 pm I would offer this post to some psych majors I have met as proof that they don’t know what tha Hell they are talking about! Excellent post Cher. Will there be a part 3? » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 2:51 pm Step 2 eludes me. I never see the “add image” button. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 2:47 pm Worth sharing….”The Disease called ‘Perfection’ “ The important thing is that you try. That you accept the struggle. That’s all that can be expected of any of us. Know yourself and your limitations, and you’ll be fine. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 2:23 pm I think you’re on to something. I believe men will go after whatever society gives us. If you spend any time on “the dating scene” you’ll quickly notice that most of us aren’t very picky. We just want someone warm who won’t laugh when they see our package. I think more women need to realize that. ‘Cause I like you gals just the way you are too! 🙂 » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 2:10 pm It’s a total society thing. Look at Marilyn Monroe. Today she would be considered overweight. A “plus size model”. After Twiggy, it was all about loving girls with the body of a 7 year old boy. Very creepy. I tend to be turned off when I can see their rib cages. I think it was where and how I was raised. I’ve always liked girls with “a little meat on their bones”. The unhealthy look just doesn’t do it for me. Makes me feel bad for the women who have that kind of pressure on them when they really don’t need it. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 1:44 pm Which is probably why I enjoy being a man. Societal pressure to look and behave a certain way is almost non-existent for my gender. It’s an absolutely liberating feeling to just not give a fuck. I’ve never been happier. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 1:13 pm It’s simple. Just get rid of the police. If you wanna find something to replace them with, that’s fine. I see no need for it but most people scare easily. Just no more high school dropouts with the power to ruin good people’s lives on a whim. I’m tired of it. Rage is watching your unarmed child gunned down for no reason and having to swallow your anger because someone some where is under the impression that “they’re not all that bad”. Whatever. Fuck. The. Police. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 10:19 am Would it help to say that I am more in the abstract in that I am opposed to the idea of police and not so much the shortcomings of the individual officer? » Posted By ADONAI On February 15, 2011 @ 8:51 pm Wait! Wait! I meant, “FIRST!” » Posted By ADONAI On February 15, 2011 @ 8:10 pm Fuck the police. » Posted By ADONAI On February 15, 2011 @ 8:09 pm I still don’t see why we can’t do both. People labor under the impression that this country is some how poor. Far, far from it. Besides, the revenue made from mining the Moon could greatly benefit Detroit and other cities. Instead of cars, Detroit could become a factory for building the future of space exploration. Millions of jobs. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 12:42 pm Any article that references Swedenborg is o.k. in my book. Excellent post Cher. » Posted By ADONAI On February 15, 2011 @ 1:06 pm Bravo, my friend. Well done indeed. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 4:30 pm Indeed » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 4:23 pm Excellent points Abby. Common sense can’t be taught. It’s just common sense. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 4:16 pm HA!!!!!!!!!!! Understood my friend 🙂 » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 4:15 pm HA!!!!!!!!! » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 4:11 pm The test I took was pretty standard. Like the one they use in MENSA. Not a measure of total intelligence so much as how quickly you can solve a series of logic problems. Really, to me, an I.Q. test doesn’t tell you that you’re smarter than someone. You just think differently and will arrive at the correct answer a little quicker than them. But not always. Like I said, I’m horrible at math. Well, not horrible but if you saw me doing Geometry you wouldn’t think “we got a genius right here”. I got a 1450 on my SAT back when the highest score possible was 1600, but it was because I aced the verbal. I sputtered toward the end on the math. My brother, conversely, is excellent at math but I am a far better problem solver in the abstract. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 4:10 pm Abby – Here’s another one to throw their way. Everything that will ever happen has already happened. The past, present, and future all exist simultaneously. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 4:00 pm It was always just a number to me. It didn’t make me feel smarter knowing it. It actually made me feel worse. That I was somehow underachieving. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 3:56 pm Cannot agree more. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 3:54 pm Totally. It’s like Einstein said, “Knowledge does not equal wisdom.” » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 3:49 pm @david p. Indeed my friend. There are many very philanthropic people among the wealthy. I think the pursuit of wealth is perfectly fine. Whatever makes you happy. It’s the way some go about it that really sticks in my craw. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 3:33 pm I dunno how to judge intelligence. On a standard scale, Stephen Hawking’s I.Q. is over 200. Mine is 180. Can I solve an abstract problem quickly? Yes. Can I beat a 9th grader on a math quiz? No. Of course, Hawking always said that people who go on about their I.Q. are losers. So obviously the smartest man alive also feels that stupid is as stupid does. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 3:28 pm And I agree with you. The problem is that many prefer to think of the two lazy asshole brothers as the norm among those who draw welfare and other benefits. Coming from an area that has been consistently rated among the poorest, I can personally guarantee you that is not the case. Most people WANT to work. They just can’t. I’ve drawn benefits. I’ve been on unemployment and food stamps. It fucking sucks. I can’t think of too many people excited to live that way. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 3:14 pm Budget, Deficits, the Debt and the lies from the right I’ve never been much of an economist so the nuts and bolts make no sense to me. I do know that this economy is built on spending. That much should be obvious. I think we need more jobs to have more people spending and putting money back into the economy. The rest will take care of itself. » Posted By ADONAI On February 14, 2011 @ 5:39 pm Bill Maher’s Big Lie Contribution? Well, Matthew Perry is a funny guy. I wish him luck with his new show. But Mr. Majd’s time seems to have been supremely wasted. » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 2:44 pm Indeed » Posted By ADONAI On February 16, 2011 @ 2:13 pmComments Posted By ADONAI
