the photography was gritty, more like Pi, thankfully a turnaround from the direction The Fountain was going in. I like the American history analogy, it was like a Western. And Marisa Tormei's body is smoking.

your name is "you" so that makes sense.

apologies if this has been posted, but has anyone seen "Eastbound and Down"? this is the funniest show since Arrested Development and IASIP. It's on HBO, with Danny McBride - Favorite lines: " I had a dream about this moment... When I was making love... to my wife Donna. On top a her...

actually i think the IQ is bullshit. I don't understand how someone's proficiency at word jumbles indicates ANYTHING about general intelligence. And most of the questions follow the same pattern. The explanation is that questions like this demonstrate your ability to find order in chaos. If...

well these scores are inflated. as far as i know there isn't a legit IQ test on the Internet. I used to have a high IQ (145+ in third grade) but it has likely deteriorated after half a lifetime's worth of drug abuse.

that's the one i was thinking of.

i think Debray wrote a book about media theory, kind of a slant version of McLuhan through Situationism and radical Marxism. I'll look for it. If i recall it's pretty rare, hard to find, but i could find it on WorldCat and upload it.

i enjoy the randomized noise inserted into the order here, kind of fitting actually

hmm i'll have to look for some definitions. this is mostly jargon, i agree, and right now the posts are in mixed order, so this is going to look kind of meaningless.

my answer, via Zizek, is wrong imo actually, i never agreed with that and I argued for 20 minutes with Kocela about Zizek's definition of jouissance, which to me has nothing in common with Lacan's meaning of a direct/traumatic encounter with the real.

i don't mind answering questions, but yeah but i can already tell this debate is going nowhere, or will only take the form of non-sequitters, and we'll just keep covering the same ground. i'd rather go back to the original question. not so much defeatist as i have a headache and i hate retreading.

what is the Decode? that was quite good actually, i really enjoyed that. post more stuff like that man, heh

Debray was a Situationist iirc

Zizek's intro is basically a rebuttal re Althusser, ie "ideological fantasy" has replaced false consciousness, reification, etc. This is pretty elementary, and I won't respond to any further responses/questions. have a good week.

these are not monolithic statements. in fact it's a rebuttal of Zizek. as for an advisable approach, your critique could be more like my professors (Chris Kocela), and less like [...]: "Wes: Yes, I agree that a certain degree of internalization is necessary for the reproduction of ideological...
