I'll bother with it then because it says you agree with righteous old Asaph where he says “Surely in vain have I kept my heart pure” and I’m rolling on the floor.

Love is not the word, but the molecule has a beauty that’s like the rat’s beauty. Both are elegant in their complexity, but despised for what they do or how they act.

You ask me to answer which I extol – the rat or the cock. Let’s not get personal here, but if I were a rat, I’d extol the cock. If I were a cock, I’d extol myself.

Let's not get personal here. I was born the year of the Rat. There is no year of the dove only the Cock. Which will you extol?
What a child. Grow the fuck up. Go to the local libary, and read a few big kid books. If the weastest insult possible, a hahaha, and your smoltering zero are the best you've got, give me a second, to hide in fear. Not. <3 Jason
Having never read the book, I'll have to agree, but add that the pterodactal, be lit from the beak, by a lighter, using his toes.

PS-This is my favorite recent comment. Too bad no one bothered with it.

You should be here. Talk about meanings having words or whatever, yesterday I watched a normal Arabic adult stare at a playground slide outside her classroom for 15 minutes while she tried to think of an Arabic word meaning "slide". Later, I saw another woman do the same thing thinking of the Arabic word for "calendar". Weird, huh?

How dreadfully convenient your life must be. Which of the following do you think was your biggest mistake: a) knowing at that first moment that you were meant to be, b) doing "something very wrong", or c) knowing at the last moment you weren't meant to be?

Do you love Uranium 238? Why?

Probably because you spend too much time hanging out with those Baptist Student Union band-chicks.

You're a regular I Ching, aren't you? Incidentally, that's exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about. Can I ask you a question? How many couplings do you know that meet all of the requirements above? Of the ones that don't, how often is the woman the silent sufferer? How often is the man?

I think Dan Brown could have crafted The Da Vinci Code better if he'd shat on a single sheet of paper and folded it into a bad origami pterodactyl with his lips.

nice
tadpole on will you? by Sapphire 21 Mar 2005, 8:51 PM
I like the last line, and a lot of the rest of it too. I think it could flow a lot better though.

It's a pity that you could care less, as that proves (as does the poeme, really) that you do care at least a little. What is it with all these idiots who use that stupidly bastardised form of a perfectly sensible phrase to accidentally express precisely the opposite of what they actually mean? Especially putative poets, who ought to have at least a little sensitivity to language?

Do you think it is possible for one to be an atheist, and believe in something? Please think about what the word "atheist" means prior to answering. Thank you. What is an aethiest? Does it have anything to do with aether? Do you think you have been hard pressed, or have you actually been hard pressed? How could you not be sure?
edpeterson on stab in the dark by not_a_philosopher 21 Mar 2005, 6:17 PM
Have you really been looking?
edpeterson on stab in the dark by not_a_philosopher 21 Mar 2005, 6:17 PM
Do you mean that you could care less, or that you couldn't care less? If it is the former, why not say, "I could care more?"
