It isn't that dramatic really, after a while. It's just the new "normal". You kind of get used to being sober. And when thinking about the drinking you remember the bad things, forgetting the good.

So is man.


For me the solution was non-alcoholic beers. Finally I get to say I drank because of the taste.

Mr Alcohol would probably not agree. He tried to get me into his grip. Maybe He was the Devil?

Observing drunk people for hours at a time tends to dull my occasional weak want to be intoxicated, but not enough to avoid delicious and satisfying tastes.

Greek people defined the empire first with their trade, culture and intellect and defeated the empire when the empire conquered Greece by counter conquering its culture with their own spirit. The result was another great empire. It too had its failures but at its best added to western civilization further wisdom, technology and science.

When thousands of years later the dictator invaded the Greek mainland he met a humbling defeat.

When the Italian people finally revolted against their tormentor the endgame became ugly but fully deserving;




All tyrants everywhere must never forget that history will spit at their grave and when it gets it right they will meet an end deserving of their eternal unethical arrogance.

Death to all Tyrants.


Nick Bostrom, no tyrant himself, makes a case that a tyrant may be required to save the human race. I don’t know that I accept his premises, but they seem not entirely implausible. I’ll see if I can find a link when I’m out of this ridiculous traffic jam I’m in.

Sitting down also does tremendous bodily damage, by these loose standards.

All sitting is problem sitting.

Especially, baby sitting.

Church sign up the road updated with “beware of reason...”
I’m going to get a pic tomorrow. That’s priceless.

Alas I’m not leaving the house today so that very telling sign will have to wait to become decentralized history until Sunday. Bless their hearts for real. It’s just reason. That’s like saying beware emotions. Beware imagination. Beware beware beware. Be aware of all that, huh? They beware so much it’s unreasonable.

Why don’t you go in and try to reason with them?

I have no present interest in particular to bother them while they are busy servicing and stuff. It’s a funny thing to reason about in public since they can’t miss the public road where they faced their sign. It’s on my street, their street, our street. “What’s your street, son? Planet Earth. “ IDK maybe Sunday. I can hit them up for a PTO donation for the school while I am there. SMP Life is Being Drunk -Random Content thread

Well the sign was less interesting in the context I presumed from my 55 MPH glance.


“Beware of reasoning about the
word of God, just obey”

But it’s still kinda fascinating they advertise that on the street.

Saw a program where told death penalty is right because God says that in the Bible.

Makes me think when they are catching up.

Just obey?

Made this my tinder profile anthem, purely out of a place of empathy.

Both random and fitting at the same time, if we must be sober.

It is masque but it seems to have its downsides. I spent some time as an antisocial bookworm. Those two perhaps don't need to go hand in hand. Veeddz mentioned the presumed necessity of inebriation in social situations. There's a a tringaulatiion of needs going on here I feel but I won't make assumptions.

It’s uncanny. Not long ago I wrote about three choices that are sometimes framed as expectations. They are trust, respect and obedience.
Very reasonable choices. Anyway a whole other thread.


Predetermination and Free Will seemed to have met on my street. I find a suggestion of unreasonable obedience to an authoritarian will a “sign” to forgo visiting. Feels creepy. Not like the other church nearby. They have such pleasant Platitudes on their sign.

Of course, you are correct. We tend to adapt when necessary.

I've been there. While i didn't bounce, I worked a nite club as a summer job. Except, I had the polar opposite feeling you had. Which is interesting. I did it purely for money, having nothing but sober existential angst.

Jordan Peterson versus Slavoj Zizek is on. I for one am expecting the greatest debate since Hitch, (god rest his soul) debated Galloway.
