How much do we actually differ from trees? in Philosophy ·
Kenneth Lee16 said:It sheds its bark, loses hair... even leaks resin

But it still grows, right? It bears fruit... feeds itself... survives through spring, summer, and winter

So, I guess it gets some kind of organic orgasm feeling out of all those processes?

That's tough, because as far as I know, plants don't have a nervous system, which is the whole basis for feeling things.
Late-night driving: anyone else? in Law ·
Correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that once a lawsuit actually kicks off, the statute of limitations stops running. Here’s my reasoning:

The statute of limitations effectively bars someone from demanding an obligation be met. It kicks in once the legally defined period passes during which a creditor could have sought fulfillment. Keep in mind, though, a court won't consider the statute of limitations unless the defendant specifically raises it as a defense.

Unless specific laws dictate otherwise, the clock starts ticking the day after the creditor first had the right to demand payment. If the obligation involves refraining from doing something—like avoiding a certain action or omission—the countdown begins the day after the debtor violates that agreement.
How do you find your purpose in life? in Psychology ·

It’s wild, but even this serial killer once said: “That was the thrill for me. That first murder made me feel like I’d finally found my purpose in life. By the thirtieth one, it felt like just fixing a cabinet. So, I started torturing them because that’s where the joy was!” I mean, seriously?! The guy actually thought he found his calling!!!!

And... please, don't go thinking I'm some kind of total freak or that I'm actually rooting for him....

But there’s a grain of truth in what he said (I'm a firm believer that you can learn something from anyone, even the dark stuff).

The real question is... how do you actually find what makes you happy?

Try looking back at what you wanted when you were a kid or maybe a teenager!! What did you love doing? (I don't know... sketching, writing, reading, jamming out to music... whatever it was)

Doing that really helped me. Though, I had to fight like hell to tune out everyone else's noise and realize how much people are just... drowning in their own fears. Honestly, I'm still working on it.

It’s hard to be brutally honest with people because most folks are so checked out—they don't even get it half the time.
What do you guys think?

I don't know, I figured this out a while ago and I've been living by it since... and honestly, there's nothing wrong with telling someone the truth to their face if it's true... might at least wake some of those sheep up.
btw... check this out.

And to all of you saying life has no meaning... why are you even here? Here is my take: the odds of being born are lower than winning the Powerball. Since I already hit that jackpot, I'm going to live this life to the fullest and enjoy the things I love—while staying responsible, of course (mostly to myself), so I can actually afford to live that way.
ROCK NIGHT @ The Roxy, Nov 11th in Music ·
Someone really needs to blow up The Roxy; it’s easily the worst club in this pathetic excuse for an American punk and rock scene. I used to go there all the time, but now I’d much rather just stay home and smoke a joint.
