You
would. It's just irritatingly pseudo-intellectual enough to appeal to you
This post adds nothing. You are an albatross.

I'm serious. Do you understand how forums are supposed to work? This isn't your own private IRC channel. These posts won't disappear in a natural flow of conversation. They are becoming the conversation. Take it to fucking private message. People are here to discuss content of opinions - not the holder of opinions. Fuck's sake, man, I know you're capable of better.

No, sorry, the brain related one.
Ah yes, Blink. A great read - smashed it in over the course of about a week. If you like brain-related stuff, I can also recommend The Tell Tale Brain by VS Ramachandran.

And yet here you are yelling at me publicly. Cute.
This on top of your regularly taking jabs at me, talking about how I should be banned from CommChat, that super-insulting smarmy post you left on my profile page a while back (which I deleted because fuck you) etc. etc. I realize you're having issues at home but that's no reason to take it out on me -- oh, wait, you've been doing this shit for years. That long period where you never posted was the best time for TTLG. You're fucking boring, go away again please.

I got The Mind's I on dema's recommendation. I've only read a bit though, sadly. I get too little time to read which is why I'm still on Snow Crash.

I'll call out shit behaviour that's ruining the ability for others to have a conversation, particularly in the absence of any active moderators. If this was only in one thread honestly I'd just roll my eyes but you guys drag this shit from thread to thread. You and Subjeff shitting on each other back and forth forever doesn't count for community activity I'm afraid.
My post on your wall was genuine as is this fuck you for bringing my personal life into this.
This is my last open post on the subject. If the behaviour continues and the mods continue to do nothing I guess I'll have to use the cowards option and ignore your retarded ass.

Oh, wait, so now it's about Subjeff too? Bullshit. You just don't like me and take the opportunity to take out your petty, childish grudge on me every chance you get. Plenty of conversation goes by here, you just don't notice it because you're waiting for me to post again so you can complain.
I don't disagree that your post on my wall was genuine. It was also insulting as fuck and of course you made reference to my personal life so hey guess what go fuck yourself you chuffing hypocrite.
Why don't you just fuck off already? I've clearly ~ruined TTLG ✿◕‿◕✿ for you so why are you even here still?
"Last post on the subject" pfft. One can only hope.

Enough!
Threads go off-topic a lot on TTLG and on the whole that's fine. However, the number of threads that are deteriorating into a slanging match between the three of you* is getting ridiculous. Debate is good but if there are further posts along these lines then they'll be deleted and time-outs given.

So I just read good ole' Catcher in the Rye and absolutely loved it. Rang true on so many accounts...
I'm also halfway through Nietzsche's The Gay Science and just hit the wtf chapters. Rampant sexism and stuff like "buddhism spread because Indians eat rice." It's kinda amusing with a few good points but kinda feels like any other pseudo-philosophical conversation I could have with any of my friends on a lazy saturday afternoon... maybe I'm reading it wrong :p
