guys, i am in a job-related coma

[xfer]

i disagree that both exist except consciously!

 

[minxnim]

yea that really clears it up.
so basically maybe i don't even exist... great...

 

[xfer]

you exist only through sheer force of will.

 

[lizard]

if you didn't exist, you could not be bored, because nothingness cannot experience sensations or stimuli.

 

[minxnim]

so if i become suicidal all i have to do is just chill out for a second andf that's it?

 

[mindspell]

You'll have to clear that up Alex because that statement doesn't mean anything. Of course you have to be conscious of your own state to even attempt to explain boredom or emotions.

 

[minxnim]

i feel like i'm on a date with camus.

 

[xfer]

i mean that emotions are a contrivance, boredom is a contrivance, and i don't understand people who are different from me.

 

[minxnim]

yikes

 

[mindspell]

This probably makes some good interpersonal relations. Are you saying that you don't actually experience these particular contrivance? You always treat everything you experience coldly and logically?

 

[xfer]

no, sometimes emotions are useful and entertaining, so i do experience them!

 

[mindspell]

But you always keep in mind that they are figment of your own mind and experience them accordingly?

 

[xfer]

ummm sort of, i mean, sometimes i forget, but that doesn't make it stop being true.

 

[mousewings]

Emotions are a waste of time. I occasionally wish I didn't have any.

Join the club. Life makes me braindead, or wish I was.

 

[minxnim]

someone asked me on saturday 'do you miss being alive?' and i was all like 'what? can you pass those pringles?'

 

[xfer]

when i got my conch pierced i didn't bleed at all and the woman was like "um, are you human?"

 

[lizard]

I don't consider myself overly intelligent but sometimes I envy the stupid, for they do not question the realities and perceptions of their existence.

 

[goatschool]

conch?

 

[minxnim]

my blood pressure is incredibly low so doctors and assistants are always making reptilian jokes and 'no pulse' jokes
