Clusterfuck Summary Corner

"I don't even own a TV" vs. "I own a gun, but,"

what if my gun has a tv in it

WHAT THEN

You'll ruin yr sight

People are really weird. Some people believe that not having something is an inherently aggressive action, like people are actually "not owning a thing *AT* them".

I would never have thought that a joke thread was worthy of 400+ posts worth of discussion, but I guess some people do. *gr8080 shrug*

If I'd started a joke thread that somehow turned into a long conversation about art, class, technology, social etiquette and the politics of taste I'd be pretty happy tbh

Its not all about you dl

Thread wasnt a clusterfuck obv but sure lookit

i just want to make sure i'm understanding this summary correctly: people are discussing gun ownership in the "i dont even own a tv" thread?

Some people believe that not having something is an inherently aggressive action

Some people perceive other people not owning something as an implied slight on them for owning that thing

what on earth

ah fuck it, forget i said anything

wu-wei, man

yeah.

kali yuga up in here

at this point "i don't even own a tv" just means "i own a laptop" right?

yeah no way I go near that thread but it's interesting how it means something different now than it did 20 years ago

its a lifestyle not a lack

haha what a cool post how come more people are not commenting on it

big fan of that post

i lold

thanks buddies great to hear

have to say i missed it the first time, good stuff

i don't even own a sense of humor

way back in like 1995 we got to do screenprinting in art class this classmate of mine made a t-shirt that was a campy 50's clip-art illustration of two kids laying on the ground, theier heads propped up by their hands, looking at an old television set that had the iconic big brother face on the screen with the caption:

YOU ARE WACTHING
BIG BROTHER

bummed i never got one, it was a great design

YOU ARE WACTHING
BIG BROTHER
ON CBS
NOW A WORD FROM OUR SPONSORS

Atheism vs theism

in the old jpeg world i would just respond to that with 3 pictures of the ilx logo in a row

it's that old saying, "a picture's worth exactly seven words"

On the seventh word he called it a day

is ilx the only online place tho where the theism argument is well-represented? i feel like other internet enclaves are pretty predominately atheism bros or evangelical style echo chambers?

oh, surely reddit has many forums where one may seek for a calmly reasoned, non-fundamentalist defense of theism [/facetious]

god.. is... the internet, just throwin that out there

Sanatana Dharma handles that all quite gracefully -- you can have your cake and eat it too. Ishwara for the theistically-inclined, and then the formless Brahman for those moments when you want to get real

at least one sage compared our lives to a slide show that Ishwara selects from our storehouse of karma, which I think is so funny on some levels -- our life is like the travelogue that you bore the neighbors with, or your Facebook friends with

GOOD ONE ISHWARA

ahaha

did Macklemore say something dumb?

haha thanks everybody

Polyamory

disgusting savages

discussing clusterfucking i guess

lol

extensively planned and mediated clusterfucking

hurting and sarahell exploring their feelings

that's not a clusterfuck at all

clearly all the licentious polyamory out there has driven laxness about sundry other standards

that was ruder than i meant it to be tbh. sorry xp

perhaps you should be looking in the mirror and exploring why their relationship brings out so much rudeness in you

maybe u all just need to do polyamory to each other
