Do any of you ever challenge your own perception of reality? EVen for nothing else than for a bit of fun. It truly makes you think about how in the whole scheme of things, we are insignificant at best. I know the whole, "I think, therefore I am" stuff... but what if it was US, that was the product of another being's imagination? Are we the biggest main inhabitants of a world or is there a world out there full of beings that are 50ft tall? Or conversly 5 inches tall? Whatever the case, I hope the twisted son of a bitch who is dreaming me into existince right now stays asleep for sometime, because I am having too much damn fun

It's probably a detriment to me at how much time I ponder this subject and related topics. Go watch this . Got to the navigation menu and click imagining the 10 dimensions. It illustrates what may very well be the closest thing to what's going on that I've seen. But then again who knows. QUOTE(bondiguy @ Nov 19 2006, 10:36 PM) I often have that problem  problem?

Whatever the case, I hope the twisted son of a bitch who is dreaming me into existince right now stays asleep for sometime, because I am having too much damn fun  I could go on and on and on and on about this subject... but I won't. I will say that I read a lot of interesting stuff when I was obsessed with the Matrix movies. If you want to read lots of interesting essays and theories and stuff, just search for "brain in a vat." that's the catch phrase for one facet of what you're talking about. It'd also be interesting for you to read The Allegory of the Cave. It's a short dialoge written by Plato I believe and it deals with different reality perspectives based on your level of awareness of your surroundings... Read that and search for the brain vat phrase. You will find countless links that will really fuck with your mind. I recommend a completely sober state of mind when reading.... you can really hurt yourself otherwise.

If not, I'll add the pic which you mentioned my name in the title QUOTE(Bobaloo @ Nov 20 2006, 11:33 AM) Read that and search for the brain vat phrase. You will find countless links that will really fuck with your mind. I recommend a completely sober state of mind when reading.... you can really hurt yourself otherwise. Shit....

Well yesterday I suffered some foot in mouth disease.... I felt like vanishing after this. Here's the story; At my house my hot water is heated by gas. After a month or two of problems with out existing old gas heater we decided it was time to buy a new one. The guy that lives a few doors up installs them for a living so we asked him to come down and hook us up with a new one. He said he'd install it for cost price and wouldn't charge us anything extra. Now in Australia it is almost custom to buy anyone that helps you out like this a case of beer. So knowing he was coming around I got a case of beer. he came, installed and got it up and running. I paid him for the system and then said, "here mate, here is some beer. Thanks for helping us out." He did not want the beer (I thought he was just being polite) so I insisted he take it as a favour. After a minute of back and forth he said, "Last year my brother died from years of alcohol abuse and I swore I'd never drink again." I could have died....

Hey man, you gotta let yourself off easy on this one. Just the fact that it's "almost a custom" means that it's practically expected. ie, that it's really an insult if you don't at least offer. Not being there, I can see how it would be uncomfortable to "insist" but since that's part of the whole process, you were only following custom. I went a year with out drinking anything (from March 05-March 06), and always put my friends at ease when they were drinking around me. I use to have to push full beers away, that were bought and paid for, then explain why I wasn't drinking. The onus to make accomodations is with the person who is going against custom, no matter how "unfair" that may at first appear. On a side note, I ran into a guy from "down under" tonight. I happened to mention that I knew someone from Bondi Beach. When I pronounced "Bondi" I said "Bondee".I was corrected, it's pronounced Bond-I. I always thought it was Bondee. It made me wonder, what pronunciation were you guys using?

It made me wonder, what pronunciation were you guys using? Oh I know... there was no way of knowing but I still felt terrible for a while afterwards. A few hours later I looked at the bright side and started to drink those very beers haha It is pronounced bond-i or bonde -eye pretty simple. Christof whilst you are visiting my thread... How do I go about getting tickets to an EPL game next year??? I'll be over in mid March

That is pretty much a custom here in Canada too, at least in western Canada. I can't blame you for feeling bad, but at the same time looking at it from a third party perspective, I think it wasn't as bad as it seems. I think the guy realized you were just being polite and the only way you weren't going to let him leave without taking it was by telling you the truth. If he would have said, "no I don't like that kind of beer" or something, he would look like a dick to you. So I don't think he said it to make you feel bad or to get sympathy but just because it was the best way to deal with it.
