You gotta figure that Marco is written by a mod, and with generous use of the term “twat”, must be a mod from the British isles. Crude enough British ...

Whatever your good conscious permits. :point:

We just read the story, you’re the one who put his big neo-nazi stamp of approval on it and published it in the contest. :gasp:

Some lives are made for disrupting. Consult with your attorney first, of course.

You guys are heartless. How long do they have to wear it? https://idcardprintersavings.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/uband.jpg

According to the theory of constructed emotion, our emotional life is partly determined by how our brain perceives our body. This is referred to as in...

It doesn't cost anything to create a human life. A study counted death penalty case costs through to execution and found that the median death penalty...

So the joke is prolonged by voting for it I suppose. Funny thought, Marco may have voted for it both times. :lol:
December 30, 2021 at 17:23
This nails it.
December 30, 2021 at 16:33
Not exactly sure why but I’m a little disturbed that The Ballad of Marco is winning at this point.

Perhaps a light brush with schizophrenia, if that's possible. I had a friend who developed it at the usual age, around 18. It wasn't pretty. We'd be o...

Well, the state can't be all that morally unsound because it always seems to favor the powerful.

They say that fools rush in where angels fear to tread. So you :gasp: or :halo: ? Impressive display all around, as RogueAI says.
December 28, 2021 at 23:35
Everything has a purpose. Purpose is what defines us and binds us. If you want to know a person, and I mean capital K Know a person, you must fathom t...

Of the two people who’ve voted so far, one of them doesn’t appear to have read them all, or it’s a sympathy vote.
December 28, 2021 at 01:22
In the first contest, I read according to titles that took my fancy, as Baden so daintily puts it. If you intend to read all of the stories it's simpl...

The nature of a story is anamnesic. There’s no way around that. There’s also no way to conceive the universe without imposing some kind of structure. ...
December 27, 2021 at 19:51
I think they only represent balance, if that makes sense.
December 27, 2021 at 17:48
This is quite wrong. Amnesis is the salvation of the universe because it is thus freed from the biased, warped web of recorded memory or history (incl...

A notable quality of the writing that I really appreciated is how nicely it flows, like one seamless thought that’s effortless to follow. I imagine th...

I read all the stories top to bottom over a couple of days, as time allowed. When the order changed I simply went down the list and read whichever sto...

Really good. :starstruck:

Anonymity naturally lends confidence. :strong:

Enjoyed it and it really resonated. I kind of know the feeling of being lifted in this sort of way and then the eventual sinking back to normalcy. I’v...

Worse, performance anxiety has led to devastating embarrassment in the past.

I'm not unsympathetic, I guess that I just couldn't quite catch the tune of the ballad.

Jason doesn’t show any intolerance for Maria up to this point so the following urinal outburst is rather disjointed and anticlimactic to an otherwise ...

So you believe those observations indicate a problem but can't explain what the problem(s) are.
December 24, 2021 at 18:15
Those are fine observations. Are you suggesting that any of them are a problem? If so, why?
December 24, 2021 at 17:46
Watched the new Matrix movie on HBO last night. Reeeeallly bad.

India Pale Ale, a pale ale made with extra hops/malt and consequently a higher alcohol level than regular beer. Good stuff.

C is for coordination. The male version of menstrual synchrony I guess. Do you follow Baden's pee cycle or is it the other way around?

Thanks!

Glad we agree. :up:

So you’re an enlightenment denier?
December 20, 2021 at 23:27
That’s just your mortal judgment. You can’t begin to conceive how God judges stuff.

I read the wiki page, of course. :brow:

That seems to imply that the wise can’t feel.

I watched A Hidden Life last night. Beautifully made and a beautiful (tragic though inspiring) story.

December 10, 2021 at 15:14
Ah, I watched The Tiger King this year. My impression - totally cray cray. My Conclusion - ego bad. My lesson - stay away from crazy egotists.
December 10, 2021 at 03:56
An adult sperm whale can hold its breath for an hour and a half, FYI. Pretty impressive, you must admint.
