"For years I thought I was crazy. But now I realize the
world is crazy, and I am one of the few who actually see
it."

R.Urff (yeah that's me, C738!)

What's your idea about this world?

you're in with the universe/world/life type threads tonight,
eh?

this world is very odd, when you think about it. why are the
way things are? why aren't they the way we can't even
imagine them to be? why is it that nothing really makes
sense? and if nothing makes sense, it makes sense to not
make sense! right?

i think the world is "weird, but not weird in the way i
like".

sometimes i think, it's fortunately that we can never really
see it for what it is...

i always feel like it's when i feel good that i forget about
all the exterior things, about myself - i just feel good, i
don't think nothing...
and when i feel bad i sadly feel more lucid than when i'm
feeling good, it's like i really see what's happening - all
the horrors in the world in all that. when something bad
happens to me and affects me, i think "how much does this
affect me even so it's so little, there are many much worse
things in the world!!"... and thinking of how much all these
worse things could feel, and how frequent they are... etc...
so i think the world is horrible

What I tried to put here, is the following.

When you grow up, you get taught about good and bad and all
that shit.
Most of us have a certain idea about the world. And when you
grow up (I'm 25 now) you just realize more and more that it
is sick.
That's the downside.

I also learned that when you try to manipulate, or just
slightly bend these systems, you can benefit from them.

But you learn about being a good person, and I see hatred
and violence everywhere.
America on a crusade against terrorism, while all they want
(in my opinion) is making the world pro-american and secure
their oilsupply.

Why is jugoslavia still a mess? Because there is no oil
under it.

I just can stand things like this

same here, eveyday i walk down the street or through my
campus, to my car, where ever, so many thoughts of how why
where when come into my mind...and i look around and am
amazed at even the smallest leaf, the falling of the rain,
the complexity the universe! MY HEAD IS GOING TO
EXPLODE!!!!!!!!

allthough we see television shows about travelling in space
and all that, we're on the top of technology it seems to
me.
Unless there will be a discovery that'll change the world
(like AI or something like that, a real solution to the
environment problems, whatever).
I think there will be a fair chance that I will see the end
of humanity.

I have these idealistic ideas that I can change the world,
when I just motivate people to think different (I'm not
asking you to buy apple macIntosh or whateverrr)

No I think I can change it all, but why should I? I'm not
Jesus Christ for crying out loud!

It's not pure
It's chocomel mixed with pina colada
*half a litre pina colada on one and a half litre
chocomel.*
This drink is perfect for me:

It contains sugar, so I get energy;
It contains alcohol, so I get drunk;
It containts fat, so I dont get hungry;
I'm one of the few able to drink this stuff. most people get
sick by the thought of it, so I can leave my bottle
wandering around at parties, without people touching them.

:P

fat isn't the best against hunger though! ;)
chocomel + piña colada, hmm... i wonder what it tastes like
^^

i tried mint syrup with iced sparkling water, a little bit
of bitter tonic, raspberry liquor, tabasco, cinnamon, ginger
and maybe some other things i don't remember... more classic
i guess :)

Its about america.
Everything looks like it's the 50's, but they're wearing
headbelts, to control their intelligence.
Everyone is equal because of that.
A dancer gets a weight added to one of his legs to make him
not perfect.
Very weird movie.
I will not tell too much about it, you gotta see it.
But ít has a good story.

Tell me about this being a crazy world. The broadband
service that I'm getting (and its the only available service
for me within the next 2 years) has an upload speed of that
of a 56k modem. Why? cause they said the FCC won't allow
them to widen the bandwidth. What are these people
thinking.

the world is what we have... how we got here is anyones best
guess, but the fact that we're here cannot be disputed...

I can only live so long, so I might as well try to enjoy the
ride as much as possible. worship the weirdness, it's all
we've got man.

The world is what YOU make of it, not the other way
'round....

The world is a beautifull place, and the horrors that take
place, have allway been, and will last for ever....

But think about this :

If the world would be a place without all the bad things or
bad feelings, something like a perfect place,
how would you be able to appreciate happy moments if you did
not know any pain.
Pain is an essential thing to make life worth living.
Don't get me wrong, I'm no sadist or what soever, I'm just a
thinker a reader and a writer... but most of all a producer
