We are the Invisible Spatula. We are the Grilluminati. We eat before and after dinner. We eat forever. And eventually... eventually we will lead them into the dining room.
I used to believe that people who didn't treat homeless people nicely were bigots until I moved to a major city and now I have to tell schizophrenics and crackheads to gently caress off a lot.

I also used to toe the party line hardcore in D&D until I realized I was constantly being challenged to defend indefensible positions and die on stupid hills. It was then that I came to embrace sweet lady Nihilism.

One time a homeless guy asked my girlfriend and I for money, I ignored him but she pulled out a granola bar she had and tried to give it to him. He sneered and said gently caress you bitch!

A valuable lesson was learned that day.

I'm sorry but you're wrong dude, you're obviously basing this off of some game of telephone style 3rd hand BS, if you read Freud and post-Freudian theorists it actually makes perfect sense and is totally observable in every day occurrences

:lol:

story checks out though everyone I meet it's like "you wanna gently caress your mom it's so obvious"

Until 19 I believed most "facts" my parents had told me. It started to fall apart real fast thanks to finding SA, but it shattered when a friend told me hydro electric power from the Niagara river didn't power all of new England.

Yeah man for sure, I've got some great books I'll need to gather to assist but I would to do some effort posts to demystify the whole Oedipus thing, it's really the Big Idea in psychoanalysis and the most poorly understood in popular culture.

It may take a few days since I'm a working man and all but I'll try to pin a reminder or something to do this, especially if anyone else is interested

I would actually love to read that.

It's not that Freud was wrong about everything ever I mean he founded psychology but taking all of his writings seriously as canon is like ignoring everything we know about how evolution works and sticking to Darwin's original writings

I agree, I prefers Klein and Lacan but there's no psychoanalysis without Freud like no modern biology without Darwin

this is true if you keep going and going down the logic hole, however, its pretty well known a lot of psychology is just made up theories based on what some person thought up that makes sense that one time. Even the more concrete foundations of psychology are poorly understood (specifically the chemistry). In 50 years a lot of what is "fact" today will be laughable, which you can't really say about a lot of the hard sciences - when theyre proven wrong its more or less a revision of "why" rather than what's observable.

Salt makes things cool and pepper makes things hot. Just learned this morning this is not the case

umm actually bud you were 100% right before

why do you think they put salt on meat back when ice was hard to make without the aid of witches and frigidaires? even today you can buy a bag of salty meat that tastes great even though it's been sittin on a shelf at seven eleven all month. when you open the bag spices like teriyaki and chipotle (forms of pepper) coat the salty meat making it warm and scrumptious again, tho still cool enough that you can taste the salt.

heck salt is so cold, it freezes ice: take a lil ice cube and lay the end of a string atop the cube and sprinkle a lil pinchlet of salt upon them, the string will freeze to the ice and you can grab the other end of the string and drag the ice cube around the table like a cold lil pupp on a leash :3:

know how if you leave ice tray in the freezer too long the ice gets tiny and eventually vanishes? see also: salt on your icy driveway/public road

Thank god for modern psychology or every time I talk to a blind person I'd believe they were real human beings and not unconscious objects with no sense of self
