How do you keep a straight face while talking about the absurdity and contradictions of others? Well he makes sure to always add "unless it isn't" to everything so the word lawyering court can't get him. You have also missed the point of why that is added when it is. It is to illustrate something.

How do you keep a straight face while talking about the absurdity and contradictions of others? My contradictions are purposeful and I can show (paradoxically) how they make sense. Purposeful contradictions are still contradictions, and they don't make sense, by definition.

Maybe he had the ultimate realization, and then had the super ultimate realization that transcends all other realizations. I had The Ultimate Realization which trumps all realizations, including Andrew's ultimate realization. From now on I'll call you "turtle" ...

As a response to those who call for openness here, in particular those who regard getting personal as useful, the question is posed. Why is your character like it is? How and why does it behave as it does on this forum? amit I just got started on this forum so it's hard to say how I will behave on it. I can say that on other forums I've frequented, I am continually told I am "this," and it's always a lot of fun to recognize there's truth in what is said, but also not truth... that I can see examples of how I'm often "that," and not "this." Maybe only in that particular moment of interaction I was "this." This past week I have been contemplating a lot about how I am frequently told (in virtual forum life and my real life) you feel too much you think too much you don't feel or think enough You can never win, can you? Well... unless you view this as a positive - it means I am anything and everything. Hard to pin down. Completely free to be whatever whenever. That is Liberation, no?
