I have been saving booze for the forlorn rags of old age. There comes a time, when you think twice about buying green bananas. So I drink to the last of my good old days, I wake up and get up with gratitude for another day in paradise. in this best of all possible space-time worlds I spend my days o...

Re: Trash
Take out the trash
Let the cat in
and lay me down to sleep
not think about it
let it go
it was only stuff
maybe it will still turn up
but still I am blue
metafical blues
cause I can't afford to replace it all
But I still got my electric tooth brush
so life is still good.

Re: This is your conscience speaking you asshole you
I must say, I love this thread even if I did write it.
I guess I love it most because it contains a poem by Dino.

Studio Eight is a Turing Test
More people “know” Turing’s foundational text than have actually read it. This is unfortunate because the text is marvelous, strange and surprising. Turing introduces his test as a variation on a popular parlor game in which two hidden contestants, a woman (player A) and a man (player B) try to con...

He fears losing her
his egg shell male ego can't face the truth
he knows he can't make it without her
so he makes her life a living hell
with his jealously

not much except
stick to my studio eight diet

Re: perpetual jam!!!!!!!!!
we knowers are unknowns
to ourselves
how can we find what we never looked for
I been busy as a bee gathering knowledge
life who has time enough for experience
I think I was born in a book
I was raised among crocodiles
I either dance or die
that's my problem
