I agree with 100% of everything you've said, except for one crucial detail I will put in the form of a challenge. Show me the post where I did anythin...

As I'm sure many do, myself included. Actually, I found his odd "visit" to our little Shoutbox to be both serendipitous and delightful; simply, as jav...

I was seconds away from posting the exact same thing (not now but earlier)! My sentiments exactly. It's a curious psychological, if not emergent-ly ph...

I would like to draw special attention to this thread. Apparently the poster, who has been here 2 years, has not posted in over a year, with the excep...

Let's open up the discussion a little bit, for the sake of viability. How can one believe in a (more so than not) benevolent Higher Power, god, deity,...

"Fine" is what you can be okay with calling an itchy souvenir T-shirt or poorly-made pair of swim trunks you had to purchase at an unknown gas station...

Meant to imply a more 'context'-based reasoning and process of conclusion for a claim as opposed to just a "well I just always imagined it being like ...
March 24, 2025 at 17:36
Well, for starters. nature itself as can be witnessed today is a pretty brutal if not outright savage environment. One could assume, if we slowly beca...

Really? I mean. Okay. Based on what information? Were you there or something? :lol: I like your posts but this one is just off the rails, mate. I get ...

Bone jelly? I'm frightened. :scream: I suppose if one had the mind to consume bones and set out to perform such a feat, jellification would perhaps be...

Lunch. https://i.imgur.com/2XsRzCp.jpeg Oven baked and seasoned Mahi-mahi with Spanish-style rice (Uncle Ben's 90 second pouch), and for some reason j...

More Stone Age babble. Get with the times mate.

I wouldn't say it's quite out of the realm of possibility javi was merely entranced by words and stories that were, shall we say, a tad less than fact...

If we're going to be so lackluster-ly broad and generic, I suppose the only real response would be: "that you might be wrong."

And, voila! "Poultrific" perfection. https://i.imgur.com/lcH1vgi.jpeg

Coming along nicely. Added some true liquid lemon juice to the mix. Not quite done yet, no not yet. But soon enough. https://i.imgur.com/rhpL10Z.jpeg

Currently marinating some organic chicken breast. Had no choice really, the "sell by" date was yesterday so for the good of all things decent and to a...

You are not alone, as it would seem.
March 03, 2025 at 01:32
I didn't read your post but nonetheless I wished to express my enjoyment in your user or screen name. What is a "differentiating egg" ? Ah, the age ol...

A clock in the bathroom. Huh. That's uh, edgy. :sweat: After analyzing the original artwork I have to say it probably wouldn't be the first thing I'd ...
March 01, 2025 at 02:01
This is just the standard of all factual correctness any person should hold. Let alone a philosopher. I know they say all cheese is "just rotten milk"...
February 24, 2025 at 01:59
Would you care to quote specific entries or summaries of entries so one can determine what exactly you're interpreting (or perhaps, if such a thing is...
February 24, 2025 at 00:56
What is "the public"? Just, random people and whoever happens to be around? A given municipality or country? The whole world and everyone living in it...
February 21, 2025 at 18:25
The problem is people are mostly ignorant, having all they have due to unscrupulous reasons that fly in the face of the society and values they claim ...
February 21, 2025 at 16:26
Imagine how long this universe, or whatever you want to call the place you were born in, is. Imagine how insignificant and how unchanged the world, ot...
February 16, 2025 at 00:14
I have found profound wisdom in many (not all) of your posts. And for that, you have my interest. Not quite admiration, yet not excluding respect. Sur...

Discrimination is a prejudice based on a quality or trait one has little to no control over. You, sir, are ripe for the target range.
February 16, 2025 at 00:08
I really don't complain much, certainly not in Shoutbox territory but, please, for all sense of decency, the five incessant replies really should have...

Something that if allowed unfettered access to the average person or child may reasonably result in serious injury, death, or worse, annoyance to thos...
February 15, 2025 at 20:29
Ah, but the Shoutbox is just so much more casual. I can say things without a care in the world. Sure, it should be far from gibberish, perhaps even wi...
February 15, 2025 at 20:02
Sure, but you shouldn't just metaphorically throw your hands up as if your position (or understanding of said position) doesn't have clearly defined a...

Seems reasonable to assume with the wording of "doing drugs" refers to non-medical recreational drugs ie. marijuana, ecstasy, cocaine, etc. for non-es...

One of the old "fables" or "legends" whatever you call them being the "invisible robes" one is my favorite. Apparently a foolhardy ruler permits audie...
February 13, 2025 at 18:55
That's fair but it makes it seem to a person in the heat of debate that you're implying there's some "better" almost "intrinsic" "way of life" you see...
February 04, 2025 at 13:28
But not you somehow? Just, other people, but not you. No, of course not, you're simply too smart for that to have happened. It's simply impossible. Ah...

I feel it of at least some relevance to ensure all are aware mankind has absolutely never created life in a laboratory setting from non-life. Electric...

I already explained this a long while ago, here. Only to be (in his own mind) refuted by one Tom Storm. Of course, per nature of philosophy, man is fo...

Well the standards for a proper, valid, and lasting OP on TPF have to be fairly excellent as a bare minimum per the rules so let's not get carried awa...

Like, all of this is great and such (not really). But at the end of the day, each person is a Fascist by nature. Man is a domineering being. He simply...
January 25, 2025 at 20:29
Au contraire, I did nothing of the sort. I simply established base concepts present in most all popular or well-received film or production. While eac...

See, now that's a powerful and succinct review that really drives the point home. And frankly, makes me consider giving it a watch sometime. Some cons...

I just felt momentarily piqued by your declaration of it being essentially "the greatest movie you've ever seen" and figured you'd not only have some ...

It seems watchable from it's Wiki entry. What might be the overarching theme or message of the ending, though? Could it be when man is not weighed dow...

I think the question intends to result in greater social (and legal) ramifications then the average person might garnish from a one-off reading. Basic...

Interesting. Imagine being part of a religion without knowing so. And folks like to call religious folks enslaved or brainwashed or in a cult, eh? :gr...
January 21, 2025 at 11:17
I never claimed to believe anything of the sort. Simply, to the best of my ability, offered an explanation why your claim to such is open to reasonabl...
January 20, 2025 at 13:15
Opinion is not fact. That's the main point of contention here. Yes, you believe and feel and perhaps even engross such into your entire being to the p...
