How fascist are you?

Let's resume when you figure out what you write.

No. You shall resume when you learn to decipher the riddle language of the Pythia.

Sometimes, I forget that Usonians only know the flag of the US. It is hard to understand a joke when one does not know the minimum to understand a quarter of the half.

Hard... hehehe

The most beautiful flag ever designed? You mean that flag?


Hey, there is a comedy club two blocks from you. If I need jokes, I know where to go and it ain't here. Yours are lame.

Good joke, John Dalton.

Nice try, WC Minor.

Exactly. Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.


Yes. Novi must understand he should endure the presence of a few caterpillars first if he wishes to become acquainted with the butterflies. It is the basic law of understanding yet he still can`t grasp it after so many decades.

What a beautiful sentence. I applaud it.

The most annoying thing about Poles is that they tend to talk in riddles. The second most annoying thing - that they view lack of direct clarity as proof of high intelligence and a reason to feel superior. You are neither. Just annoying.

Poles don't communicate. Every Pole wants to be Mickiewicz.

Yes, coz direct clarity is always connected with simplicity. High intelligence doesn`t deal with simplicity coz it is too dull.

If your intellect always longs for clarity and certainty, then it means you are probably a very boring person in real life. While highly intelligent people find uncertainty fascinating coz they always try to get to know what is hidden behind it.


Of course not. Some prefer to be Słowacki. Others - Norwid.


Yes. :) We are opening subsequent doors of perception to and for Novi. to help him gain that mystical insight into uncertainly. The only exception is we do it without psychodelic drugs, only through high intelligence.

Speaking of that... I think it would be interesting if someone created a thread about Life, Death and The Meaning of Life, itself, through Poetry, Theatre, and Literature, in general.

The problem is that the translations of some Spanish and Italian poems are quite bad, and I guess that there is the same problem with Polish Literature.

Only three types read poetry: useless weirdos, gays, and those who want to get laid.


There is nothing mystical about life. You are born and you die. In between, all things that matter are simple and are covered with short sentences. I can give you some examples if you wish.

You don't write a three-paragraph essay to ask her to be your wife. Unless you are Mickiewicz. Then, you need a page and a half full of idiotic Polish riddles and double-meaning disclaimers, all sprinkled with references to Greek myths.

Poles need therapy. Badly. The problem is that nobody has come up with it yet.

For that "mystical insight into uncertainly", Poles buy vodka. Plenty of vodka.

It must be true as you know so much about your people, mister alphabet. Enjoy your month.

Poles are not my people just as my first wife is not my wife and Polish is not my language.

I was not speaking of Poles. Enjoy June.

Please keep it a secret or call somebody who gives a fu*ck.

Hey, Zagloba, are you pawian's evil twin? I sense similarity.

Or gay?

Now you contradict yourself coz both birth and death are amazingly mystical for each person who experiences them. If you have doubts, I can assure you that you will see for yourself one day or night when you find yourself in the long dark corridor and notice a dim light in the distance. By going towards and reaching the light you will gain the mystical insight into uncertainty which you are scorning today.


Actually, there is one like that. One of our accomplished members initiated it after I spurred him on a little. :):)

You can freely discuss those matters there through Literature etc too.

If pawian is an Old Christian of limpid Catholic blood with no trace of Saracen nor Hebrew, it could be. Both born to defend the Christianity and our very own interests (in the Name of God, of course, of course...).

No, I am sorry. You should visit a steel mill, man.

Thanks, pawian. Maybe I get around over there.

Learn English.
To contradict oneself, one has to make two conflicting statements. One was: "There is nothing mystical about life. You are born and you die".

What statement of mine negates the one I just quoted?


Are you posting from your grave or just bullsh*itting?

Did you ever bang your head on something hard and saw strange images? If not, try it and you will no longer find mystic in the dim light in the distance. You will probably say something you wouldn't in front of your students but that does not mean that Satan is speaking through you.

Life is a lot simpler than the charlatans want you to believe - for a fee, of course.

Of course not, Horatio, there are more things in heaven and earth, than are dreamt of in your crude philosophy

Where is my contradiction?

Your contradiction is in the incongruity of your statement in which you suggested lack of mysticism in such mystical phenomena as birth and death. Simple.

No. A contradiction is in two opposite statements. Try again. Your interpretation means sh*it.

Exactly, that`s what you did. First statement of yours: no mysticism in life. Second - people are born and die. Two opposing ideas. It seems you don`t believe those moments are of special nature, sort of sacred in their mystic quality.

It is your problem, not mine.

No, moron. "People are born and die" SUPPORTS "no mysticism in life, not contradicts it.

It is not my problem you don`t understand that it does contradict. Simple. :)_:)

Not my problem that you don't understand "support" vs "oppose". Learn logic.
"No mysticism" implies simplicity. "You are born and you die" implies simplicity. One supports the other.

In your mind. But it is a wrong conviction and I am trying to make you aware of the fact.
