Crazy Talk Thread

Joseph Bailey41 said:No, I'm just Babbling. 🤣

A friend of mine once traveled all the way to India to "find himself." He came back realizing he wasn't actually there. 😲

It would have been far more prudent if he had looked on the other side of the globe—perhaps in Jamaica.
That said, certain tenets of Buddhism hold merit. Regardless of the specific school.
Let us return to the matter at hand.

How long has this sense of Babbling taken hold of you, and are you silent about the reasons why? 😬
I suspect you harbor the belief that others are taking you quite seriously.

Honestly, I actually enjoy the Babbling. It helps me relax. It’s like a pressure valve for when I'm working through things in my own head. I just hope I don't end up being taken too seriously. 🕺

Honestly, I just realized I’ve been being pretty rude. I’m basically just rambling on about myself. Instead of talking about Buddhism, Inception, or ladybugs. Since this is a chat, we should probably stick to the topic and stay off-topic if we want to keep things on track.

How many pages of red have you collected so far? 😬

unbelievable

It’s usually just a personal call based on how someone sees the world, so you really can't paint everyone with the same brush.

Which God are we talking about here?
As far as I know, believing in God requires capitalizing His name, otherwise it's a sin 🤷.

Only 36, a full 🕺. Lately, I haven't really felt the drive. If I recall correctly, only the esteemed Judge has more.
Some argue that entropy isn't even what it used to be 😬, though my own view is that it has simply become more appealing to certain people 😁 due to their posts, or perhaps we are all just getting older. This is all going downhill again...

The educational ones are... well, whatever the cost may be.

As for the rest, they are in the style of Morgan Campbell4 🙂



So, go ahead. We must do exactly what we desire...

Me, at a measly twenty. 😳

I don't think you and I combined have nearly as much as our friend Judolino. That guy survived two recessions and look at him—still cheerful and talkative. Word on the street is he’s even swapping out moderators, but hey, don't tell anyone. 😲

Well, I also have two 😁 Economy and Natural Science credits. It is utterly unfair because I was right then and I am right now—that isn't just an opinion, it is a matter of fact, though if I were to explain why I refuse to follow the rules, I'd be breaking them... but such is life. They rarely reward you in the places where you actually excel...

The only thing I lack is a clone, or several clones. 😁

one and only

PS, I took a look—he's been around for two years... and given how many people we've managed to "enlighten," it won't be easy for anyone to catch up to him.

I was just saying, I'm sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by "perme." Could you clarify or provide more context? I want to make sure I'm on the same page before I respond.Not just bits and pieces. 😁

And what is the distinction? Where exactly... he didn't just veer off, he slammed straight into mode 😁
good, I haven't read... well, fine, the writing and the thought process are excellent, so you really have to consider all three perspectives to get the full picture.
Sometimes I stumble upon some truly brilliant posts, but it feels entirely haphazard—like finding flashes of light from "fade to gray" users who haven't quite been revived yet, though perhaps they could be through some sort of automated system.

Pretty much. 🤣

Man, traffic laws are getting weird. You can't even drive through a lane properly anymore without feeling like someone's watching. Honestly, who wouldn't swerve to avoid that kind of pressure? 😠

Speed tempered by caution—but then again, what is life without a little friction? Of course, maintaining standards comes at a price. 🙂
Personally, I found more satisfaction in seeing the "cornering" mod receive a red 😁 because I refuse to force my way where I am not welcome... it's just short&simple
Perhaps it isn't standard practice to praise the moderators, but on this specific PDF, it 🤔is acceptable.
They have their own set of rules they must adhere to, but "We"

just look at how she veered off (that happened long ago) the topic ...

Not until that much-hyped individual finally lands after resisting something she clearly already knows the truth about...



"Do one thing every day that scares you." That stands as my absolute favorite piece of advice, specifically number three.

The video is overflowing with wonderful insights, though I must admit, there were a few I chose to ignore...

I actually listened to that advice a long, long time ago... and well, I followed it. Now I just have way too much free time on my hands since those little things eventually sorted themselves out. 😠

Sing for freedom 🙂 though those who actually think might find themselves lacking the inclination to sing

And have you happened to see...



The film he produced based on this masterpiece

Not really. I gave it a read, but it didn't quite click for me. Honestly, if I were a cop, I'd be weeping right now—I much preferred things like *Galactic Ceramic Healer*, *Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?*, *The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldrič*, or *Ubik*. Those were much more my style.

🙂
there are actually quite a few of them
the film is significantly softer while still capturing the core essence, though I would suggest skipping those first few minutes. It’s far too dense with symbolism, dark humor, and truths we’d rather ignore...



and don't even get me started on the music and the violin work.... just watch.

Thanks for the link. To be honest, I found the book a little too heavy on the speed-induced paranoia, but I absolutely love dark humor.

That said, I thought that part where the fake identity takes over the real one was pretty clever. A classic Dick move—totally struck dumb and confused. 🤣

And that psychological evaluation—essentially a Rorschach test😁 was brilliantly executed... a study in gauging sanity. It’s the core of any assessment, really: that subtle nuance of knowing exactly when to push and when to pull back...

this is merely the prologue...
Should I send you a private link to the movie so you don't waste your money? 😁 ... In my experience, if something is actually worth owning, the original will surface eventually.

one of those endings that leaves you in tears without fail.

as for the "confusion," it isn't just the result of the fungi; it's a unique instance of PKD, which is devilishly fascinating.

This is just the introduction...
Can someone shoot me a DM with a link to that movie? I’d rather not shell out the cash for it if I don't have to. 😁 If it’s something I truly value, I make sure to track down the original version sooner or later.

One of those endings that just leaves you in tears.

It’s not just about the fungus causing that confusion. There's something else going on here—it looks like a specific case of PKD, which is honestly pretty fascinating in its own way.[/I]

Can you drop the link? 🙂

I still think my favorite Rorschach is the one in... About this movie.I'm guessing you already know exactly what I'm talking about without even having to click. 😁

I read that exact same comic strip once too... you know, the one where they see a dog's head and start seeing butterflies instead? I ended up getting a little lost in the panels myself after a while. It was honestly brilliant. 😍
