I choose not to deceive, you say you choose to deceive. It may catch up to you some day or it may not. Either way, I've been honest and haven't wasted any women's time by deceiving her into thinking I'm anything other than what I am. They are welcome to seek affection elsewhere if they don't like my temperament or illness. I certainly don't blame them.attofishpi wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 9:36 pmFFS Gazza, the only way they might stick with you is if you rub Gorilla Glue all over yourself prior to giving a goodbye hug.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 9:33 pmFair enough, then I won't use the word "qualities", but I let women know up front what they are in for if they stick with me.attofishpi wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 9:31 pm
I thought you didn't have any qualities?
Being honest I'd say is a quality, but trust me, NOBODY is honest within the first month of dating. As far as I can tell, you blow as much smoke up each others arse that you think you can get away with, and then gradually let each other down with how boring and crap you both are.
Maybe my biggest blow smoke might be along the lines that Warner Bros are looking at turning my book into a film, but are being a bit short on the million bucks I want.![]()

You're welcome.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Fri Dec 27, 2024 4:29 pmThank you.
But what about your own self, Gary? do you also try to spare your own self from the agony of the relationship you have with your self, Gary?
Are you conscientious and considerate with your own self, I mean, do you take responsibility for your self, Gary?

It's not like we can ever say to ourself with absolute certainty.... ( oh no, not this living life thing again, I've done this so many times before, so I better damn well make certain I get it right this time, and not fuck it up, like the last time ) .....
People have no idea who they are really, or why they are human and not a snail or something, nor do we know what we are doing, so it seems everyone is just muddling through the best they can, making it all up as they go along. No thing alive has any knowledge of anything really. That's a deep truth that most people reject. Everyone is in the same predicament, in that no one who is human knows anything, all they know is that they exist, and that's all. Everything else is simply imagination, drawn from the capacity to conceptualise life. So you really are not alone, in fact, everyone is alone, we are all alone in our own aloneness. No one can even begin to know another person because there is zero access to other minds. We're all islands unto ourselves, no one is going to rescue us from our solitary desert lives. We were alone in the vast dark void of nothingness oblivious to anything before our birth, and we continue to live an oblivious life when we are born, returning to oblivion after we die.
So what I've personally realised about my birth, is that my birth was all for me, it is all me, it is all mine. So I might as well treat it as if I created it just for myself, and that's what I've been doing all my life, treating my life as if I am the only person alive, and everything else is just along for my entertainment to distract me from thinking about the oblivious void that is my true nature.
You do not have to be an example to anyone but yourself. No one owes you anything, and you do not owe anyone anything either. All that matters is what feels good for you. You make yourself what you want to be, not what others expect you to be. How you choose to live your life is the only thing worth living for and that will be none of anyone else's business but your own. When you can live happy and in love with yourself alone, what could possibly go wrong? You are the master in your own universe. That's how I live my life, as if I personally created it just for me. Eh!Gary Childress wrote: ↑Tue Dec 24, 2024 7:12 pmAnd last of all, I am probably not an example for anyone to want to live up to. Who would want to be like me? Failure is not a model to live up to.

Re: News Flash from Earth
Yeah, I swallowed him whole, it was the most delicious experience of my life.
Harbal and Fairy were a fire that ultimately consumed itself. Our ashes are all that remain of us.
''What lies inside a cage of flames? The truth, the heart, but burned up before you can see it. Only traces remain in the ashes, a pattern you guess at or invent, an intangible thing that might leave a mark, but could just as easily blow away.''
Re: News Flash from Earth
Q:What happened to Fairy?
A:Said a sheet of snow-white paper, "Pure was I created, and pure will I remain forever. I would rather be burnt and turn to white ashes than suffer darkness to touch me or the unclean to come near me." The ink-bottle heard what the paper was saying, and it laughed in its dark heart; but it never dared to approach her. And the multicoloured pencils heard her also, and they too never came near her. And the snow-white sheet of paper did remain pure and chaste forever, pure and chaste - and empty. — Kahlil Gibran

Honestly, I can totally relate to that sentiment. I guess I'm just a lazy eater, I can't be bothered exploring the expanse of the wider menu that I know is available.
