Posts That Were Thanked by Obbe

  1. Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke Because the point was to make a distinction between THE purpose (which you said) and A purpose. That is, it is not somehow "the point", like being the answer to the question "what is the purpose of my existence?"

    However after reading the first sentence your made in china brain zapped the fuck out and you didn't contextualise it with the second one.

    Let me break it down even further for you.

    A Von Neumann machine is a machine that can replicate itself. It is the basic "unit" of evolution. Evolution happens when a Von Neumann machine creates a nearly perfect copy of itself. If these machines require resources to run, batural selection happens when these copies then, based on their slight variations, begin copying at differential rates based on selection pressures. Some copies come out retarded and malfunctional, sterile or incapable of sufficiently gathering resources. Perhaps resources are scarce and copies that would have been fitter in times of abundance now die off due to famine.

    Essentially, your whole body's engineering towards the operation your mouth to sustain your dick and maneuver it into puss.

    But that does not mean that's what you should do with it. It's not "the" purpose of your body and your self. Many other purposes have evolved within your body in the course of those basic motivations. You have evolved many degrees of freedom, including some that other animals evolve independently as well to cope with famine or plague, such as the ability to delay or forgo reproduction for the good of the herd (gay uncle genes) or for other similar aims.

    all i want you to answer is a simple yes or no.

    is our purpose, the purpose of humans, to libe and breed ?

    no need to go off on a tangent. amd if you wanted context all you need to do was to scroll or swipe up.

    btw, while not every 'a' purpose is 'the purpose', all 'the purpose' is 'a' purpose.

  2. Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke No, I said design is making something for a specific purpose. The purpose for which humans are ultimately made is to survive.

    then why didnt you just said yes when i asked


    Originally posted by vindicktive vinny so our purpose is to merely survive and reproduce ?

    but instead of saying yes, you went


    Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke It's a purpose of your design, to effectively persist in the world.

    Don't conflate that with some divine decree for the meaning of life.

  3. Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke That's because you are retarded and don't understand English.

    So saying "the purpose of your design" is just saying "your were fashioned towards a purpose, that purpose is X".

    no, you're saying our existence is the purpose of our design on one hand,

    while saying our design is how we are constructed for our purpose on the other.

    so now its like an oroboros slurping its own cock and tail in an neverending loop.

    Originally posted by Bill Krozby I agree with this except the whole killing yourself part. I actually get this from dudes more so to be honest, I know a lot of women that like to chit chat and spitball but they usually want me to to say something back.

    But yeah I was thinking about this the other day, when I got my job back at the krusty krab I agreed to help out this one asshole that never gets a day off (he volunteers to work everyday because he has no life/is a try hard, literally works at the same place as his mom) but anyways I agreed before going back to the oyster bar full time to help him do the charlie work, I like talking to people at work to pass the time but the dude was so intense, he was one of the pussy is pussy kinda guys, id engage him but it just became too much like he was trying really hard to impress everyone, my boss even told me (the douchebag didn't work there when I originally did) that the guy really wants to feel needed..

    It's just really annoying, he's 25 or 26 or something but constantly talks about super hero bullshit, and he'll go on about the movie blade and will be like "jamie foxx was great in that movie" and I've had to tell numerous times that wesely snipes.. he even came to work wearing a toystory 2 shirt.. like wtf..

    It got so bad that one day I just quit talking to him and later that night I told him I can't stand working with you telling carter I'm going to quit if he doesn't move be back to the oyster bar sooner or later, and the got really passive aggressive.

    I mean everyone talks inane bullshit at some point but when you're constantly being pressured into its

    AHHHH GET OFF OF ME!

    All your stories end in you doing some antisocial shit. What kind of fuckass tells their coworker they can't stand working with them? This is why you're always jumping around from job to job and from girl to girl. You have a big mouth. Which is way worse than the type of person I'm talking about in my op

    Talking at you not to you

    When you respond they don't even acknowledge what you said because they're already thinking of what to say next while you're talking

    Women are usually culprits but I've seen plenty of men do it too

    I cannot stand to be around these people. If you're not comfortable with silence just kill yourself

  6. Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke It's a purpose of your design, to effectively persist in the world.

    so if we apply your definition of what "design" is according to this :

    Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke Design is when something is fashioned for a specific purpose.

    we will get this as an answer for our purpose :

    Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke It's a purpose of your [fashioned for a specific purpose], to effectively persist in the world.

  9. Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke When did I say "not the humans"? Humans have been designed, by natural selection. To survive and bear offspring. But that's just the backbone for all sorts of exploration into design space because you have to exist to do anything like that.

    so our purpose is to merely survive and reproduce ?

    Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke How do you think humans work? This I why I fucking hate you man. It took us all these posts to say that there is design in nature because you are just an idiot and go around in semantic circles.

    You hate Obbe? :(

  13. Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke So yes the purpose of the eye is to see, even if nobody gave it that purpose. It's a natural part of our universe but I don't know why that should deflate it?

    so you mean eyes, which purposes is to see, was designed, but not the humans they belongs to because we dont know the purpose of humans.

    or apendixes for that matter, since they serve no functions, or no longer do.

  14. Originally posted by Rear Naked Joke Design is when something is fashioned for a specific purpose. That specific purpose doesn't need to be the result of a conscious human choice for something to fit the criteria of design. Meanings and purposes evolve.

    but how can there be purposes without humans and their mind and consciousness ?

    what is the purposes of our sun fusing hydrogens into heliums before we exist ?

    no human. no reason, no purpose.

    no design.
