blather_pollution The Truth This is getting out of hand! Ok, I don't mind when people try to blathe comments about a topic, and they really don't know what's going on, or what they are talking about, they haven't read the entire string of conversation, but they just want to say their two cents and try to seem profound. That's ok...that's kind of cute actually. Then, there are the ones who just want to be popular, and noticed. Perhaps lack of attention in their "real" life brings them to over act their alter egos. That's not too bad, there's only a few of those types on this site. That's like littering gum, or cigarette butts, not really a big problem. But then there are those who have nothing relevant to say at all. They are so angry about the small size of their intellect, and their lack of a profound contribution, that they just type a bunch of unrelated jibberish, rather than actually trying to THINK of something creative for a change ,or at least try to make a complimentary blathe. But no, if they don't get all of the attention, they want to ruin it for everyone. How juvenile. Those are the one's who are polluting blather. Those are the GWBs of this place. You know, and we all know, who you are, and it's time you gained a smidge of maturity. Stop messing up the place, you don't fool anyone. 010717 ... absent but still present i don't know about this whole 'messing up the place'. as much as some of the assholes around here piss me off, i'm not going to tell them not to write whatever they want here. the stupid ones usually disappear in time, so if we have the patience to wait it out, they will go away. teenagers usually have short attention spans anyway. everything everyone says usually contains some degree of hypocrisy so on occasion i have been known to say the same thing as you to people that piss me off, but i guess the best way to coexist anywhere is to pay attention to but not lavish attention on the things that piss you off. or maybe e-mail their parents about how they need to add a parental control to their aol concerning a well disguised porn site by the name of the blather pages. 010717 ... frankenfistkitten oh shit, people, looks like we've just been introduced to the newest member of the blather_police help me jebus. .,|,, 010717 ... grendel what in the name of my dog spot is a GWB anyway 010717 ... dB Well, if you can tell people what to write and don't have the sense to ignore the shits, then I have the right to tell you to leave your god out of blather. Does that seem fair? 010717 ... st3fan exploding_head_sequence happiness_is blather_pollution 010717 ... nocturnal I'm so 100% with db. good call. 010717 ... florescent light blather is blather. Everyone has their own ideals about what this place should be like. There are certain standards that even I myself would like to impose on blather. But blather is blather. and blather has no standards. Additionally, I would never make my ideas of what I would concider to be a happier blather enviroment public, because I respect what it is. And any forced change would destroy what is so wonderful about this place. If you're going to flag burn, leave the country. If you don't like what goes on here, you can start your own blather. And when you do, you may impose any rules/regulations you wish. blather is blather. Accept it. blather is blather. 010717 ... splinken limitations are freeing 010717 ... Dafremen I'm trying to determine whether or not Truthie over there is referring to me. Lemme examine the statements before I decide whether or not to respond. "But then there are those who have nothing relevant to say at all." Ok so far we have a match. "They are so angry about the small size of their intellect," Well not exactly angry, but feeling slighted by my slow mind and even slower wit...yes yes...go on.. "and their lack of a profound contribution," Hmmm...well I'm not sure what qualifies as a 'profound contribution'...I thought fat_chicks_with_class and 'gas_is_explosive' were pretty 'profound contributions' myself...but there's no accounting for taste..go on. "that they just type a bunch of unrelated jibberish," Heheh that reminds me of the time I was in this McDonalds and this one guy drops the entire straw dispenser on the floor and all of the straws just comes flying out all over the floor. Man it was...?....oh yea! jibberish...ok so you got me on that one...next? "rather than actually trying to THINK of something creative for a change," (The Internet, CTRL-C & CTRL-V....aren't these EVERY blatherskite's tools?!) "or at least try to make a complimentary blathe." Hey now THAT'S NOT FAIR! Gimme something to be complimentary about first..THEN bitch if I don't compliment for krise sake! "But no, if they don't get all of the attention, they want to ruin it for everyone." Sounds like sour grapes to me. Besides I NEED the attention dammit I need it! "How juvenile." Heheh...are YOU WATCHING me type this do0d?! "Those are the one's who are polluting blather." They say that garbage is the energy source of the future. Well that and chocolate Yoohoo. "Those are the GWBs of this place." Ok I submitted this acronym to a government acronym computer run by the offices of reporting. These were the top three results: Government Waste Board General Welfare Billet Goose Waddle Beer (I'm guessing the Waste thing cuz of the tie in with pollution.) "You know, and we all know, who you are," Whew! Glad the introductions are out of the way. Can I borrow 50 bucks? Hey you know me...I'm good for it. "and it's time you gained a smidge of maturity." (You make me sound like a bottle of Goose Waddle Beer or something do0d! Heheh) "Stop messing up the place, you don't fool anyone." Ok well this OBVIOUSLY has nothing to do with me... Cuz I'm fooling EVERYONE. : ) 010717 ... Aimee where's mikey when you need him? 010717 ... johnny west I have nothing to contribute to the discussion aside from this: We're all shits. Some more so than others, but WE ARE ALL SHITS! Get used to it, or fuck off. And, since I allowed myself to descend to the level of vulgarity (as I so often do), you can safely assume that my intellect is indeed microscopic. But it serves me well! I have nothing else to say. 010717 ... Captain Planet It looks like I'm the only one who can clean up this mess.

How hypocritical of me to think that I should have any say so of how this web site is supposed to be. When I read your responses, I felt embarassed for what I'd done, I even tried to invent an elaborate coverup to mask my true intentions as a secret_experiment. I am so ashamed. When I wrote what I wrote up there, I did mean it, I was feeling that way, it was unbridled anger in the form of a blathe. I should have controlled myself, and I could have saved myself from this embarassment. But, at least I feel better having confessed. And it's up to you whether or not to accept my apology. There it is. 010720 ... grendel prepare and consume any one of baby_satan's_snack_tips and all will be forgiven. 010720 ...

Some people just like controlling everything. To whoever started this string...(forgot the name...sorry..)...Shut up. Everyone has their opinion, and all minds are different. I dont think like you, you dont think like me. Blather is Blather, and that's how it's going to be. 010720 ... The Truth see...the OLD ME would have thought that that was just a reiteration of everything that's already been said so far, not really excelling in the creativity department, and borderline palagurism.

If you can't see the nature of this and let it be, you need to smoke a fatty and really THINK about why it bothers you. It's like standing on the corner of a busy street and reciting whatever you have written to passers by. Some people will have something to say. You can't pick and choose who or what, life just ain't like that. Luckily, all of our brains work in very different ways, and it makes for quite an entertaining place as long you eyes and mind are open and you don't have a stick up your ass. we now return to your regularly schedule unrealistic selfish whining. 010721 ... *Ziima* lol...This one goes out to "The Truth". I only put that entry there just to emphasise that what you said was somewhat true...But...wouldnt blathering be considered pollution to you none the less? Its just...blathering...right? 010721 ... youknowEXACTLYwhoiam Truth can form an opinion about whatever the fuck he/she wishes. It is the rest of you with your reactionary "outrage" toward criticism who are making yourselves ridiculous. I suggest taking one (among too, too many) of your own's advice: "If you can't see the nature of this and let it be, you need to smoke a fatty and really THINK about why it bothers you." 010721 ... kx21 Virgin of blather_pollution... And Taboo Term(s), Sentence(s), Passage(s), etc... Tell me more about that And I will tell you how wonder you are... 010721 ... The Truth Um...I don't know exactly who you are "youknowEXACTLYwhoiam" ...but I liked what ya said! And anyway, now that I look back on it, I just have this thought to add, because I remember why I named it blather pollution. I like pretty highways and scenic mountain passes, you know, the visual stimulation that only the aesthetic beauty of nature can provide for us, anyway, there is a definite order to the world. A sense of logical progression that we get a feel for. Like, if you saw a giant, foul smelling, dirty old dumpster in the middle of a meadow filled with thousands of daisies, you would automatically know that it did not belong there. No one would need to tell you. It's almost instinctive. I'll just leave it at that. 010723 ... kx21 A good connection to the Beauty of Nature... Is this pollution an ingredient for Blather's Evolution? 010723 ... Casey It's kills all the dolphins and eagles 010723 ... Casey And in all seriousness, blather is a place where you can just say whatever. Your free here. You blab. It's always wonderful when someone says something poetic. But sometimes it can't be done. I don't have a problem when someone gives a short reply. It's a reply none the less. And they are all beautiful 010723 ... kingsuperspecial someone pass me the fatty - oh, nevermind, I've still have 6 bottles of Robitussen and some cheerios. 010723 ... baby satan ever try buckley's? man, that stuff'll do the job. 010723 ... Dafremen Silly people. Of course the belligerent anonymous do0d with no email account is right. The minute you turn to tell Truth to shut the f*ck up because he's trying to censor, you become a censor yourself. Blather_is_blather and his blather is as legitimate as anyone's and twice as entertaining because of the outlandish, imaginative pseudointellectual content. NOONE noticed me refusing to take the bait and bag on the guy for his misguided attempts at censorship? (Shakes head) Sigh. Fortunately, that same anonymous do0d managed to coax a few comments out of Truth that I WILL latch onto and take issue with because...well that's one of the things I do around here. "And anyway, now that I look back on it, I just have this thought to add, because I remember why I named it blather pollution. I like pretty highways and scenic mountain passes, you know, the visual stimulation that only the aesthetic beauty of nature can provide for us, anyway, there is a definite order to the world.

Like, if you saw a giant, foul smelling, dirty old dumpster in the middle of a meadow filled with thousands of daisies, you would automatically know that it did not belong there. No one would need to tell you. It's almost instinctive. I'll just leave it at that." You mean like Central Park in the middle of New York City? If anything DOESN'T belong in the middle of a big cement jungle it's real trees dammit. They f*ck up the whole "urban ambience". I mean now that you bring it up...if blather_pollution is anything that doesn't seem to fit logically, then by your own definition YOU are blather_pollution. Come to think of it..so am I. What LOGICAL place do ANY OF US take up in here? We certainly play a role...but is it a logical role in any way shape or form? What makes your field of daises the sensible pleasing part of your hypothetical scene? Why do you assume the DUMPSTER is out of place? Certainly if you are a fly or an urbanized wild animal a dumpster is a thing of beauty; extremely desirable and pleasing to the senses. Replace that field of flowers with a parking area or an alley and the dumpster would seem right at home even to YOU. So why is it that the flowers aren't seen as being out of place? Majority rule? (One dumpster...many flowers?) I disagree entirely with the idea that blather_pollution is anything more than a subjective label applied in a less than evenhanded fashion to blathers which YOU PERSONALLY find offensive, unpleasant or illogical. Apparently you HAVEN'T changed your tune after all...you're still seeing blather through your own lenses. Which is quite acceptable here. Hey...the visually impaired have stuff to say too, and blather_is_blather. 010723 ... The Truth Oh Dafremen, I do love you too! and even though you relentlessly regurgitate reiterations of ripeness, I'll take you little de-"bait" just to humor you. Now, we are not flies, we are humans, humans that like pretty scenery, don't like dumpsters in the daisies! Central park is supposed to be there, and it was there before New York, or New Amsterdam even. HOWEVER a concrete jungle SPECK on an ENTIRE planet filled with Central-parkesque TREES and WATER is different from the Natural Order, and outside of the logical progression. And I'm not talking about all of blather. I'm talking about individual blathes. When 5 of us are talking about twinkies, and then someone comes and says marinara sauce, just to be funny and different, that marinara sauce guy is doing it to fullfil the juvenile starvation for attention. That's all I was saying. We now all know that blather wouldn't be blather without that marinara sauce guy disrupting the logical progression and natural order, but jsut so that nobody makes any mistake about why he really does it, that's (not) all I was saying! You've got to look at the BIG PICTURE here, Dafremen! Think "outside the box"! "Pseudointellectual" --hmph! 010723 ... Teenage Jesus I used to think Daffy was tiresome; (BTW Daffy-not anymore; Dave says hey) But you, The Truth, whoa Nellie. You make my brother Dave_Christ look like Arnie (and Dave shot a 116 yesterday!) I imagine that you have a buffont hair-do, do you? Man was it hot out there yesterday (102!) satanX3 played to and we both shot five under. Speaking of pollution- too many damn empty drink cups out there. Let's pick `em up guys. And those heads- geez (oops-took my own name in vain!) You won't catch me dead in one of those. The stench stretched all the way to the seventh tee box. I had to hold my nose while I filled the water jug. The heat is not really that bad once you get used to it. (Just ask satanX3) 010723 ... Weed Eater it's ok to cry, teenage J. You'll be ok. 010723 ... florescent light actually, Central Park was not present before NY was established. They built it after the city was already there. It was their way of trying to mix the classes and offer a relief from the stressful concrete jungle, since NY at that time was either very wealthy or dirt poor. Though beautiful, it unfortunalty didn't work at mixing classes since it cost about a days worth of pay to get down there, and the poor couldn't afford such. Eventually, as they intregrated trains and cheaper modes of transport, it did successfully integrate the two social groups. 010723 ... The Truth What was there before it then? 010723 ... florescent light irregular terrain, filled with swamps and such. Additionally they rid roughly 1600 people from the property, churches and schools. 010723 ... black-dyed gel product marinara sauce 010723 ... Dafremen Thank you dearest florescent for that enlightening information. Indeed the concrete(well not exactly) jungle came first. We are NOT flies Truth, but for an accident of fate, we could have been though. What you fail to realize T.T. is that I am STANDING outside of the box and it's beautiful here. Your "BIG picture" is more like a postage stamp next to the billboard that is "THE Picture". WE are humans, but WE are only a minute speck in the sea that is everything around us. You choose to see everything from a standard "human-centric" perspective. In this model of the universe, human perspective is CORRECT perspective and human wants are acceptable wants. Human logic is the ultimate authority on what is or is not logical and human curiosity holds the key to understanding the great mysteries of the universe and what our "purpose" is in all of this.(As if the mere EXISTENCE of something as "incredible" as a human being implies a purpose.) A common variation of this perspective claims that a human-loving diety will provide the answers to the great mysteries of the universe, but the end-result is the same (if not worse). A Bunch of humans running around thinking that the universe revolves around THEM. I prefer it here where I am... outside the box. Here each perspective is simply a new creation, not a new TRUTH. No answers are lacking so no TRUTH is required other than the truth of our relationships to each other and everything around us. They are what they are, nothing more...nothing less. We may go out of our way trying to MAKE our perspectives into defacto standards, but our successes are limited to persuading each OTHER of the "TRUTH" behind our malarky and so are of little consequence "outside of the box". Such "truths" rarely stand of their own accord but are inevitably supported by other "TRUTHS" of the human persuasion. Once you stop looking for A truth and instead content yourself with exploring the many "truths" you will realize that no magical ANSWER is really required for contentment. Instead of spending a lifetime trying to mold your point-of-view into a likeness of the "Truth", try seeing it for what it REALLY is: A short-term subjective work in progress. 010724 ... The Truth I am human. I don't pretend to understand things that are not invovled explicitly with human nature. How could I? That would be The Lie. I cannot allow myself to live that way. If it makes you content, if you actually are so "Big Pictured" compared to me, then so be it. But please, don't ever try to pretend that you can understand things outside of the realm of human existense and nature of our understanding. You will only succeed in losing more of my respect. 010724 ... Dafremen There you go again. You assume that I would compare myself or my perspective to yours in order to "weigh" their respective "values". That would be a genuinely HUMAN-centric thing to do. I have no use for such froppances. YOU make it into a contest, I'll let the two perspectives stand as what they are. I don't believe mutual exclusivity of perception is required, desired or expected. Not "outside the box" anyhow. All perspectives are equally valid and none is particularly chock full o' value. Why you followed that up with another directive aimed at sqeezing my perspective into a mold made BY you, FOR you is beyond me. If you honestly believe that all you will ever see is the human perspective in one form or another, that's certainly your prerogative. I personally have seen things from MANY non-human perspectives. I do it regularly. You seem to have absolutely no point of reference for relating to such a person or concept. I hope that isn't true, but I suspect that it is. If you had even an INKLING of the depths to which my empathic nature runs you would not have been so rash in your assumptions about what I am or am NOT capable of understanding outside of human perception. I suppose in a way it is fortunate for us both that I don't normally proffer respect that isn't earned and I CERTAINLY don't use my level of respect as a punishment/reward mechanism for behavioral modification. That's somewhat akin to saying "I won't be your friend if you don't see things my way." Once again Human-centric behavior which I prefer not to participate in except perhaps in jest. Whether you can see outside the human box or not, I would certainly rather lose the respect of you and all of those like you, than allow myself for a second to believe that I am stuck in that box WITH you. In every word you wrote I believe you have proven my point exquisitely. Thanks. 010724 ... The Truth bla bla bla...I have decided not to read your stuff anymore, dafremen. Anyone can plainly see the truth, it is all right there. No amount of twisty words or tangled webs could change what you already wrote. You're only purpose is to argue, then blame the person that retorts for starting the argument...there are enough people like that in my own family, so I don't need it when I go on-line. Of course, you could change, but I doubt you will, so you just keep on being you, and I'll just keep on ignoring you. OK? No...not ok...I don't want you to respond or anything. YOu BLEW it! Sorry.

But more important than all the egotistical stuff, the truth that anything could be expressed here and debated and that with each individual there is a choice to speak or sit back quietly and take it in. Ideas flowing, openly exchanged, outrageously expressed. Knowledge and wisdom and glimpses into the core of human thought. That kind of freedom. It is a beautiful amazing thing. 110430 ...
