    I want you to paper cut your urethra for using that spelling of the word.

    But yes, if it's determined you will fail, then you will fail. If you don't fail, then it was clearly never determines that you would.

    Most people aren't that smart tho. To realize they're good at "whatever" and put their effort and skills towards "whatever".


    But what you're talking about here is "being determined" and NOT the "everything is pre-determined" philosophy of things.

    OBVIOUSLY! Thats the consequence of being a certain way for extended periods of time. Lol
    This happens even with behavior.

  4. Originally posted by Rebirth i feel better after a few days sober

    i have half a joint of weed, im considering throwing it out even

    Ok, so if being sober makes you happy. Stay that way.

    This is YOUR happiness. Fuck what everyone else thinks.

    If you need new friends that stay sober. Get those new friends.

    Do whatever it is you need to do, to achieve the happiness you want.
  5. Originally posted by Sophie I am in the free will camp. Also, if everything is determined why do we even punish criminals? They can't help it, it was destined to happen so it is unfair to punish them. Also, why should we ever aspire to anything? If we fail it was determined that we would, if we succeed same story. So why not just don't do anything at all? Because you can't go wrong in a deterministic Universe.

    I totally agree.

    If its determined that someone will fail, they will say "fuck this" and not work any harder than he has to, because he already knows hes going to end up a failure.
    Same thing goes for someone that knows they are going to succeed no matter what.

    Then all of a sudden free will comes along... and said failure robs and then kills the successful guy, and gets away with it. That failure has now become successful.

    Vice versa

    Successful guy, with his free will, acts stupid with all his money, and loses it all. Now hes a failure.



    So fuck this "determined" bullshit.

    Their purpose is to be happy. In one way or another.

    They need to figure out what happiness they want. Whether it be material, or interpersonal, or whatever.

    Once they know that, they have a direction, and should just keep working at it from there, until that happiness is attained.

    Then on to the next, if they so choose.

  11. Originally posted by Rebirth it seems like an impossibility to me, that i'm doomed to this

    unrelated sidenote: holy shit they make jolly rancher poptarts now

    Just literally do whatever you want. I'm serious. Obviously theres more to it than just that tho.

    What...
    ...do you want?
    ...do you want to do?
    ...makes you happy?

    If whatever makes you happy happens to be immoral/illegal where ever you happen to live. ...Well, society is trash, lol sorry.
    Anyways...
    Of course My advice is to NOT do illegal things, obviously, but if YOU still decide to do whatever you want, for whatever reason, that is your choice.

    You're getting what you want, which should make you happy.

    And who knows, you just might make someone else happy in the process as well.





    Kinda related sidenote: Brown sugar & cinnamon poptarts are the only worthy poptarts.

  13. WTF does Antifa even mean/stand for???

  14. Anyone have links to the MMPI-2 psych test, that can be taken online, for free?

    Since I cannot create a new thread, I thought Soph may know of a link somewhere?


    I convinced a friend to take it, but I cannot find the link to the one I took a few years ago.
    He is the type to answer honestly. And I'm just curious to see his scores in each category.
