that's dark mate

i'm completely incapable of coming up with a reply most of the time. nothing human is alien to me

that's fine, goes without saying that we're all assholes on here

It spills over into how you approach literature and film, too. Everything is viewed in terms of how to judge the characters actions. Depressing stuff.

Yes, I went through a bunch of those once and came out thoroughly disenchanted. Everything is deductive, nothing is interesting.

The thing that creeps me out the most about a forum like reddit is the extreme obsession with the social ethics of everyday situations, sibling conflicts, relationship issues, random confrontations and so on. They go nuts for being allowed to deliberate on stuff like who is the good guy who is...

I've never listened to it Lorca actually. Will give it a try. As I recall it's the proverbial "transition" record, between early convention and later experimentation right?

hmmm makes me feel like a grinning hillbilly riding on a donkey

Happy birthday woopsy, don't worry it happened to me too once

something I love about Messi is the simplicity of some of the genius things he pulls. i have this goal stuck in my mind, for example, the one at 2:30 here: looks so simple, like he just sees something the others don't.
