There are two kinds of people. Those who spend all day at their computer and those who have actually seen brests

I'd say I'm a little like a Utilitarianist that follows psychological egoism, if that really even makes sense.

Utilitarian - One ought to create the great good for the greatest amount of people, or decrease the greatest amount of suffering.

Psychological Egoism - People do what they think is in their best interest.

Although those are very contradicting in defiinition, it is the best medium ground I can really think of. Of course, I try to follow those definitions, but with a certain amount of restriction. Like the Great John Nash said in a Beautiful Mind, you shouldn't do what is in the best interest of yourself, but rather do what is best for you and for the group, which would kind of encompass the previously two mentioned definitions.

I'd like to pursue my true self interest, but with trying to keep others in mind through the process. Get it?

It matters not whether you win or lose; what matters is whether I win or lose.

"Aim low in life, if you happen to do better, that's great."

A friend of mine actually made that up... Or claimed to, when I was talking to him about how fucked up I thought my future was going to be at the time.

My friend Greg Newton always says, "Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you'll be a mile away... and you'll have their shoes."

Uh, a funny one I guess is... "Sex is not the answer, sex is the question, YES is the answer." Also, I like.... "You're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't."

Those earent philosophies really, those are more like.. slogans or sayings.. my philosophy is an actual philosophy which takes explaining.

Well, we all know there are all kinds of different ways of beings, 1 is having senses: sight, taste, hearing, touch, and smell.. we also all have emotions, emotions who bring us to a whole new feeling of existance and conciousness, it's impossible to explain an emotion to someone who is incapable of feeling any thus making an emotion a totally abstract thing and amazing to think about if you really get into it.. but did you ever wonder how a person who can't feel any senses or emotions, totally oblivious to everything except for it's own conciousness would ever begin to understand *lets say it can hear* what an emotion is, or what sight is or what touching is.. the person would not even begin to understand.. well that's what I think about psy, It might exist, psychics might actually have an extra way of being, apart from senses and emotions and everything abstract psy might be something like that an actually exist and when a Psychic explains to you how psy works it sounds like crazy talk because you don't understand... and if it does exist then it's very powerful.. but that's only the beginning, I am a strong believer that there is something out there, an extra way of being, extra emotions, extra senses, extra total abstract way of beings (emotions, senses, psy ect) which we are not aware of, a way of being that makes our most important quality, -Sight look like an other grain of sand on the beach.. and if there does exist something like that,what would it be like?

If that doesn't make you think I don't know what will :P (btw i thought of that when i was stoned last week) hehe

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish, and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and goodwill, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down on thee with great vengence and furious anger, those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers, and you will know my name is The Lord when I lay my vengence upon thee.

Yeah that'll do it.
