I am the only person that I know am 100% trustworthy, 100% controllable, and 100% true. Everyone, everything, that I encounter, could be an illusion. All others could be animals simply placed here to view my reaction by some higher being, or (in a more "government conspiracy" fashion) they could be robots or contolled devices meant to react in certain ways to each and every one of my statements. I only know of my sentience, because that is the only one I know is under my control. Everything I ever do could be meticulously planned out so I could experience it, and I'd never know it. Maybe my life is a gigantic simulation, and when I die I'll wake up out of the simulation booth as a completely different being. But regardless of all that, I accept everything around me to be real, because no truer sense of reality exists. And if some greater presence were controlling the events around me, I need to do my best to satisfy that control; what else can I do besides that if it was my purpose? Anyway, I hope whoever read this enjoyed it.
This is actually already a theory based on the 'many worlds' interpretation of a certain aspect of quantum mechanics if I'm not mistaken.
I think Descartes came to the same conclusion as well.

back in 1656.

Frig. Why does the public education system insist on not teaching philosophy? -_-
Aye, that he did. Cogito Ergo Sum. I think therefore I am.
I got a joke for you:

René Descartes walks into a bar. The barman asks him "The regular, René?"

"I don't think-" and with that, he disappeared in a puff of logic.

Could 0/0 just be an equation which has infinite possible solutions, as a Quadratic has two, a Cubic has three, and a Quartic has Four?
Nope.

Sometimes people suggest that the answer to x/0 is be infinite, although this doesn't suggest that the number of solutions is infinite. It is also incorrect, an infinite number of zeros would still be zero. If you want to know how many zeros are in two having an infinite number still won't get you there.

As for 0/0, you could argue that the answer is 1. When you divide by something you are basically asking how many are in there, so 4/2 is asking how many twos are in four. How many zeros are in zero? One. :)

Good god, this is almost painful to read. It's just a bunch of socially inept nerds trying to be optimistic and inspiring.

This is original. I painted it when i was two. That was 30 years ago for those that like simple math. :)
Well, I'm going to piggyback on this one. When I saw this, the first thing I thought was:"Hey, it's a painting of Luigi." Then I read your text and realized that's probably not true. In fact, I don't think Luigi existed yet in 1981.
Haha i guess Nintendo owes me some sweet sweet Mario Bros money!

This is a scene I wrote. I think it fits the criteria.

SOMETIMES A CIGAR

(All the men in the cast enter, possibly dressed up in a suit and tophat. They stand in no apparent order. After a certain amount of time has passed all of the men take out a cigar, pop it in their mouth, light, and enjoy. This goes on. All of the women in the cast, dressed as a greek chorus enter. In unison they speak.)

Chorus: The Cigar is representational of a penis.

(They exit. One of the men blinks. He takes out the cigar and crushes it under his heel and exits. The rest continue as if nothing has happened.)

END

the desire to lead should prevent the person from ever being a leader
there is always a selfish reason behind the choice

After you read this, go to a mirror and look at yourself. You are an amazingly functional, highly evolved piece of biological machinery, and you are unique and beautiful. Everyone else is, too, but that doesn't make you worse off, except possibly in purely practical terms.

Also, smile at people more often. You'll be surprising how much better you and they will feel and how much easier it makes your day.


I think this fits quite well with what you were saying.

OT: Thanks. For that thing you did. For that little extra effort you made. For being there. For doing what nobody noticed. I appreciate it. You are the faceless soldier. The one who takes the bullet meant for the protagonist. The one who doesn't get the medals. The one the commanding officer walks past. Be strong.

So it isn't just me? I honestly thought I was the only person having a random ninja flipping onto bushes and over lampposts!

I think I was going to talk about penguins solving crimes on underwater ice shelves, but I'm really not sure what that means.

Doubt anyone's said that before on the Escapist, eh? We'll see :D

This is peculiarly intriguing. I want to know more.

Whereas this was just entirely painful to read. You make me sad.

If the alternative to trying to be happy and hopeful in a world full of people like you is, well, being like you, then I'll take the former road any day.

There are few things I hate in this world as much as Steam. Honestly, where do they get off with those daily/weekly sales? I'm not made out of money, but at the same time, how am I expected to resist deals like this!? Really, go fuck yourself steam, you're a blight.

Nahh, nothing comes to mind. And writing "random" stuff is just pretty fuckign lame. I guess originality is not something you force. Out your ass.

The things you say and don't mean. The things you mean and don't say. You only realise which is which when it's too late to matter.
