  1. Kunlun follow up poll

    Maybe we could call it. "The Neo Students of Mt Kunlun Shan, new generation hyper dimension force!" To much?
  2. Kunlun follow up poll

    DO it! post it. I wanna know, I was thinking about making a thread about when my cherry was popped...(so to speak). And the shit that happened to me last night.

    What the? I didn't get a chance to read it.
  4. involuntary celibacy and isolation

    Ever heard of the saying; "Do on to others as you would like them to do unto you?" The reason for my personal "tactless" post is because I dont like it when people sugar coat their words or reply's to me. I'm a "give it to me straight and from the brunt of your heart/mind" type of person. Although I do understand not everyone has the same temperament as me, and others. He came here seeking answers, and when answers were given he said they wouldn't work for him. I dunno about you, but when people do try to reach out to you, and your response is to spit in their face and continue to wallow in your self pity, how do you expect people to react? Even more so when people A: have their own demons to contend with. B: Have contended with their demons head on. C: Were not born in a generation where there was SOOO many outlets of help, available to them? I was lucky because I had an older brother, but when we got to a certain age we both had our own life's and demons to contend with, on our own. I expect a lot out of myself, so I have the same stance with people. Something in myself I still need to learn. Patients with others as well as myself.

  7. involuntary celibacy and isolation

    I can see where you get that POV, but no. I'm a general hot head by nature, and I speak passionately about what I feel. If something bugs me, I say it. My frustration in that moment is his ability to shoot down some peoples attempts to help him. Not his nature and situation in and of itself, but I see where you're trying to go with that. I agree with you here, what helped fix one person's problem only tends to work for them, and everyone's issue's have different keys, and triggers that allow them to work through it. I'm not judging him for what he cant yet see, I am observing what he refuse's to see in himself, as well as others and commenting on it with my opinion (asshole; ie everyone has one) As much as I know meditation, and movement of the internal can help you work through the external. They go hand and hand. One cant live life purely on the inside, same rules apply to outside. We all have a weight of situations in our life that "pulls back our cord" as it were. Much like pulling back the string on a bow, one has to eventually let go of the inner work, to see the fruit's of their labor on the outer (the release of the arrow) They go hand and hand, and one is not greater than the other. It's about balance. Pull to far back on the bow, and you smack yourself in the face (too much inner work) If you don't pull back on the bow at all your arrow will not fly. (lack of outer work)

    To answer your question; no it doesn't have conditional requirements. Maybe you need to re-read my comment? Empathy-–noun 1. the intellectual identification with or vicarious experiencing of the feelings, thoughts, or attitudes of another. 2. the imaginative ascribing to an object, as a natural object or work of art, feelings or attitudes present in oneself: By means of empathy, a great painting becomes a mirror of the self. Empathic- –adjective of, pertaining to, or characterized by empathy: a sensitive, empathetic school counselor. Hope this clear's things up for you.
  9. involuntary celibacy and isolation

    Actually I dont rep TTBs being new. But I'll admit I said that out of frustration. I use to be that type of person in certain ways. So it hits some buttons with me when I see someone just shoot down advice, and say "that wont work for me" without putting in the work to make something work. I'll admit that was beyond harsh, but I think America's policy is "shut up or/and die". My evolve or die comment really references to; If you're not moving forward, then you're just standing still. If you're standing still life is flowing by you, and when you begin to move forward, there might not be a footing for you, because things have yet again changed on you while you were stagnate. To not move forward means your time has passed by you, which to me is equal to death.
  10. Marijuana and the tao?

    It took this thread for me to stop smoking, I'm on a 100 days cleanse of weed and masturbation (lol) to see the difference in my general make up. After about 4 days now of no herb, my dreams have come back more vivid then ever. So that alone lets me know I can do it, and why I should keep it up. A substance only has as much power over you as you allow it to. (That's my personal belief) But I understand that, that is not the case for some, and they do need a lil extra will power "shared from another" to help them through.
  11. involuntary celibacy and isolation

    If that's what you feel dude, then enjoy your path. I could give you a laundry list of fucked up shit that's happens in my life that has allowed me to shape my own existence, but you feel that anyone that can decide what experience's do to their life's are full of it. Tell that to people who's had their entire country torn down around them, and they still rebuild themselves, and their family's. Tell that to people that fall victim to countless misfortunes daily and still have the strength to keep persistence. We always have the choice to decide how experience's effect us, and how those experience's either strengthen or weaken our resolve. That's what I mean by "choosing your reality". To those people who say it is "hopeless" find that it is, to those who say to themselves that "I can do it, and I wont fall" don't. How can you expect anyone to be empathic to your situation, when you yourself cant see empathy in yourself, let alone others. For you to even begin to condemn someone to living a fake life based off of what they want to see happen in their reality doesn't make your case any stronger or weaker. Stop looking at how other people live, and live how you want to. Shit falls into peoples lap all the time without warning, and they either make it, or they don't. The only difference is there are those who give up, and let shit happen, and there are those who fight to change whats happening to them. Which one are you?

    Look brother, I'm not going to act like I know what you're going through, or even pretend I dont know how you feel. I think everyone here can agree with you that there are some malfunctions in our current society. That's plain as day. But the drastic difference between them and you, is they chose their own reality, and DONT blame others for how they view it. They own up to themselves, and their environment. Your values, and your opinions, are not unique by any means, to say you have no place in society means you've willingly removed your place in society. You're not the only person in the history of man to feel alienated by their environment, but the moment you start to think yourself separate from anyone here is the moment you separate yourself from them. You create your OWN reality. YOU created your own reactions to others reactions towards you. YOU create the way people view you, yes there are people out there that just go with the fold, and that has ALWAYS been so. To say that you're not the type of person to be able to improve yourself, YOU are throwing away your power to change and putting it in the hands of others. Try taking personal responsibly for who you are and what you want to become! If you detest the world around you so much, take a page out of the book of Gandhi: You must be the change you wish to see in the world.- Mahatma Gandhi I have news for you, Ghandi was alienated by his society, and he CHANGED it by changing himself, and has forever left a mark in the minds of every man, woman, and child for generations to come. Stop worrying about what the "I"'s personal investment is in your life, and start asking the question how does this serve "me". The -I- is your ego, the -me- is all that you are. Wake up and stop being a little bitch. Cause you came to the wrong place to look for a pat on the ass and for someone to say "hang in there kid" I can already tell you didn't have any strong male/female roll models in your life, and I dont even know you. Thats just how transparate you make yourself out to be. Evolve or die.
  13. The most beautiful woman in the world

    Good post rain, and point made I guess? And to the guys out there, dont trip if she & other chicks post up half nude dudes, didn't we all just get done finish saying that the human form (yes female) is awesome. Find beauty in all things people, in ALL things. Bravo to her for adding her own type of spice to the thread. This is a females forum as much as it is a males. In Japan men bathe together for christ sake, so lets get over ourselves shall we? Only in the US do we have major issue's with sexuality and the expression of it. Men out of fear of being labeled gay by their peers etc, and women because they dont like to let men know they like sex as much if not more than men do. (The epic power struggle) Brad pit & Johnny Depp for the ladies. Kate Beckinsale & Olivia Wilde for the Men. Equality. THIS THREAD WILL LIVE!!!!!!

    Hey, we've been at this war on drugs with mother nature for years, I mean sure it was placed here by her, and for anyone to use, but we've all agreed some time ago that things that changed are current perception of reality are "bad" for us, DONT GO AROUND TRYING TO CHANGE HISTORY! Once we call it a drug, a mind altering substance we must distance ourselves from such things, and point out the people who do them and flex our difference of personal terminology. Didn't you get the memos? Drugs are bad mmmkay? Plus evadently even the chems that our brain produces we can become addicted to. So watch what you're thinkin' also, that might become out lawed soon.

  20. The most beautiful woman in the world

    Hahah I'm not hating just stating personal preference. I personally dont see the point in having sex with a robot. I'm sure it'll be fun and what not, but there is just something more appealing about another human being that get my chem's flowin'. If there are people out there that are down with the android love, more power to ya. On that note, humans FTW.
