This board is dedicated to philosophy and the meaning of being, specifically absurdism, though any kind of philosophical discussion is allowed.

not that pope, and wasn't tech syspope at the time, but someone flooded the boards (i dont think it was soykids) and the last backup was made about two years earlier. They're now hourly.

Yes. As I vaguely remember it, the raiding party that jak'd the board did not wipe the entire catalog, but only made their presence known. Some post was even left saying something to the effect of "Well, you didn't raid us back, so whatever" and it was that kind of thing and like Pope said when the big flood happened it seemed more like a non-denominational attack.
Also, Polish incident was best incident as it was all so very funny.

Men make their own history, but they do not make it as they please; they do not make it under self-selected circumstances, but under circumstances existing already, given and transmitted from the past. The tradition of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living.
We'd be wise to listen to the voices that shaped us, but we'd be fools to pretend they were right about much.

What is a definition? Is it simply the determining or settling of something? Or a statement of the
meaning of a word, or word group? Or is it something else?
Is it also a.. Deaf Phoenician?
Perhaps it is more along these lines, because the Phoenicians and the Canaanites have defined
the way that we speak, and the way that we listen or hear each other.
“He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.” Matthew 11:15
To be a Deaf Phoenician means that one stops at what the words are defined as in the
dictionary. Deaf Phoenician = Definition
It doesn’t look into the deeper etymology or phonics into what the word is actually saying.
Etymology + Phonics
It is my intent to give you, the listener, a key. A key that has been hidden by the secret societies
of the world. Such as the Knights Templar.
In fact.. Templar is Spanish for “Key”
A key is a means to open something that is locked, and once you have the key to unlock these
secrets, everything will start to make sense

First, one has to understand the basic definitions of the words being looked at.
1. Definitions need to be understood.
Secondly, the etymology will have to be looked at as well, which is basically the study of the
origins of the word.
2. Etymology of the words needs to be studied.
Thirdly, the phonics will have to be used, and this is where the Phoenicians are tied into
phonics. Thus Phoenicians - phonics.
3. Phonics is utilized in everything.
..And that’s where we get Phoenix from or talking on the phone. Thus the Phoenicians gave us
the word for phone and phony when someone sounds phony on the phone.
PHOENICians = Phoenix
PHOENician = Phone = Phony
Phonics are also how the words are heard towards us. Such as word Sea. When you look at it,
it’s either the letter C, or Sea as in the ocean, like a sea, and when we see with our eyes.
C / Sea / See

First Example: Audio could be turned into Au / Dio whereby Au is the symbol used in the
periodic table of elements for “Gold.” (Element 79) Dio is Italian for “God,” Bosnian for “part,
portion” and Spanish for “give, hand.” Put tog, this provides an alternate translation of “Giving or
handing a portion to God.” This is connected to the Spanish word ‘Adios’ which literally means
“To God.”
An example of word-splitting can be given by using the word ‘Language’ where we would have
Lan, Gu, and Age. Language = Lan / Gu / Age
When we take ‘Lan’ in it’s Chinese and Vietnamese context, it’s actually a feminine name for
“orchid.” But in Vietnamese, with an accent over the ‘a’ with ‘lán’ we actually have a different
male context with a creature called the Ký lán, and that was a dragon-type creature that was
said to only protect the noble ones, and it was also known as the ‘Qulin.’
‘Lan’ is the feminine Chinese and Vietnamese name for “orchid.” The Vietnamese lán changes
this to the masculine context meaning “unicorn” coming from Ký lán. When Ký lán is translated
from Vietnamese to Latin we get the word “unicornis.”

We are going to first look at the process of commerce as pertaining to the Phoenicians who
were known as the great merchants of the sea, and why this process with all of its complex
implications continues unabated to this day, albeit for very sinister reasons as will be shown.
Let’s first look at how one is born into the world, or “whirled” into the world. Why are we
“whirled”? First off, from a pedantic perspective this should be obvious since the world is
‘whirled’ on its axis. The writers of the matrix movies also knew why because the main character
Neo is actually derived from the Latin word ‘neo’ that means “spin, weave,” or “produce by
spinning.” How this process works in our reality is similar to the way the “colors” on a DVD
movie are read by the DVD player. Each color is separated and read at different intervals of
time. This is in exact correlation to the different “distances” of each planet from the sun, and the
different lengths of “time” each planet takes to whirl around its own axis while also being spun
around the sun.
The sun is the centrifugal force which each body is forced to be pulled and pushed away from.
This separation works in a seven step process which is why there are seven major planets that
give us the seven days of the week. There are seven notes in a mode of music and we also see

Ethically and utilitarian-ly speaking: Are men (or even women) allowed to be reckless fun, stupid\ irresponsible\ etc? I myself follow CELIBACY and am not, at present, terminally ill. I have a hunch\ mild premonition I will be, at some point.
Let me be explicit; I Talk (chastely) of face tattoos, letting my hair\beard grow wildly and un 🗿trimmed🗿 , also getting a total shave and head shave, going for a stroll in a winter rainy night, eating only KFC for a week ,etc.
In case I would get cancer, stage III or IV etc---what (chaste) wilderness may I embark upon?

Allowed by nature, blocked by society. Is it always a smart idea to do it? Hell no! I believe that it's okay as long as it doesn't harm the others. Gotta let the stupid kill themselves.

Good for you?
Utilitarians don't generally care about whether you act in a reasonable manner, as ligas you don't hurt someone.

Of course, utilitarianism doesn't deal well with the fact that your actions have unpredictable consequences. What if the added train you put on the sewer system by eating exclusively bacon eventually leads to a catastrophic sanitation issue that wouldn't happen otherwise? You just don't know, and being a dumbass doesn't generally excuse you from acting ethically.

Deontologists, on the other hand, have this ides that ethics comes from reason, so almost by definition you have to be reasonable to act ethically. Of course this also falls apart because no being can be completely reasonable; even the choice to be reasonable is inherently unreasonable.

I think the answer is to just not care about ethics as long as you're not doing something real bad.

Death is the price of orgasm, my friend. Life has many gambles on offer.

the folly/genius of any action or belief will lie in its unexamined nature. I guess the personal fault shows in the purposeness/ignorance of the action; whether one is truly conscious of their actions. Whatever that might mean.

At what point does restraint become prison?
