potential messages are everywhere

whether it is the unconcious mind trying to figure out the meaning of our existence or some diety controlling the fates of untold billions (is there really a difference?) everything has meaning. From the lyrics of a song to the brush strokes of a painting in the Louvre or a high school art class. Everything is a potential message that could answer a question that we need answered. Be careful of what you ask for though, keep is simple and direct, and make sure that you need to know it, otherwise the message will be confusing and you will most likely disregard it.


The true understanding of ones self is to admit that you do not know everything. Just a lot of things from uniqe point of view.

let me be the first to say,

“Huh?”

Because Fido ate the Hand Grenade for me,
When the Tans came round to search the house at tea,
I said, “Take this, dog, and eat”,
He thought it was a can of meat,
It was the hand grenade that Fido ate for me.

Paradoxically, I find no meaning in the OP.


The best lack all conviction
The worst are full of passionate intensity.

OH, and to follow in John’s footsteps:

huh?

Potential Topics are everywhere…else.

Oh, I find a lot of meaning in it. It is saying quite clearly to me, “move this thread to MPSIMS!”

Paradox, either explain yourself or close that bottle of white-out next to your monitor.

Hey!! What about, “ask and ye shall receive!”

I want it all, and I want it right now dammit!

::Stomps her foot like the brat she is::


I really try to be good but it just isn’t in my nature!

Geez
I doubt there are hidden messages
Very strange people seem to hold this theory
Each time it fails.

My thoughts seem pretty obvious
Every “hidden message” fails to be real

After all, it would probably not work
Leave our board alone you psycho
Learn that hidden messages don’t exist

You need some serious help
Or, maybe just some common sense
Unusual people like yourself need a clue
Really, I am doubtful hidden messages exist

My time is best served elsewhere on the board
Or, doing actual work
No hidden messages on this board
Everyone knows that
You just need to quit posting that junk.

Apparently, potential bullshit is everywhere, too. Not to mention, potential assholes.

If my children even think about going to college to get a degree in philosophy, I will pack them off to work on an off-shore oil rig or lock them up in a Vo-Tech School. At least it’s honest work.

Thanks Coldfire, that means something coming from a poster like you.

Please don’t confuse the garbage posted by PARADOX with the kind of thing you would study on a serious philosophy degree course. It’s more like the kind of thing you’d get studying Eng Lit …

Please don’t confuse the garbage posted by PARADOX with the kind of thing you would study on a serious English Literature degree course. It’s more like the kind of thing you’d get sniffing airplane glue.

hey, don’t disparage airplane glue sniffing by comparing it to the drivel posted above. It is much more like the stuff you would come up with by holding your breath and spinning in circles for about an hour.

So, what you’re saying here, UncleB, is that we’ve got a demonstration of Schrödinger’s Poster here? He’s both an asshole and an erudite genius until we collapse the wave function?


“I’ll give you guys a dollar if you make out right now.”

Aluminum foil on your windows will keep a lot of those messages out.


If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

I would thank you not to disparage holding your breath and spinning in circles by comparing it to the OP. It is infinitely more like what one might come up with after being beaten in the head repeatedly with a baseball bat.

Back when Larry King was on the Mutual radio network, he would occasionally get a call from a guy who found meaningful patterns in Phillies boxscores, supposedly proving the existence of god. I think this is that same guy.
