Chad Worthington...the bro [Shocker is dead]

I'd Rather be a Real Asshole, Than a Fake Friend

About Me


The Ministry of Truth States:
'War is Peace'
'Freedom is Slavery'
'Ignorance is Strength'
I live this life with ironic intent.
I am a pretentious jackass.
What sums me up in one phrase? Serial Killer.
[or Megalomaniac, and I WILL rule the world]
I am a musician for myself and therefore you will most likely never hear me play the guitar, ever.
I really like to hang out with people, drink while conversing and being incredibly polite while doing so.
(doesn't everyone?)
I study Martial Arts.
I play too many video games as a means to regression to an earlier time where things were simpler, get the hero to the princess, the princess falls in love with the hero by default, easy, cut, and dry.
I watch movies and listen to music
(just like everyone).
I disenjoy complication. I attempt to keep everything as simple as possible, simple answers, simple situations. Life is easier in that way and one can breeze through things with a greater ease, I wish everyone did such a thing.
I dislike being entirely alone for extended periods of time because then there is no one around to have adventures with and because I am in love with the sound of my own vain voice.
I have had a crazy life and adventurous life, so many strange things seem to happen to me
(and I intend to live through many more strange things).
I love to draw and make art that you will never see. I love to joke and act like a child, and sometimes go to public places just to confuse strangers
I am in love with the majestic art of strategy. When finally a plan comes to fruition that you have orchestrated it is like a symphony playing beautiful music, everything begins to dance only for the strategist and to me that is true power. If you strike at the right time, just one person can change the course of a river. To me it shows the flow a person's thoughts by a myriad of actions, and to me it is one of the most beautiful art forms that a person can create. You never really know someone until you've seen them enact a plan.
People have called me unique, in my eyes, i am completely normal. Which is to say that I am just as unique as everyone else.
I have a hard time understanding why some people seem to be too afraid to live a life that wasn't already written for them by television.
I tend to be easy to get along unless you are out to be fake and try to impress me, nobody is special enough to stop being yourself for.
(i will not compete with strangers, you will either come to me or you won't, and that's how I like it).
I think that there is a certain majesty in friendship, something that you simply cannot find in anything else out there in the universe.
i know too many useless things about too many unneeded subjects. If you're ever bored, i can usually come up with SOMETHING to talk about
(I wanted to be a history major until I realized that there are no jobs for history majors that don't involve teaching more history to people so that they can become history major's so that they may teach history to people who want to become history majors too...but I still love me some history).
I appreciate to death other cultures, which partly explains my hard-on for history.
I have a lot of stories and you will hear them if you get to know me
I enjoy travel, and plan to do much of the rest of it to far away lands to get every last drop of fun out of this life.
I want to learn japanese
I want to live in Japan and visit all of those places in asia that I thought I would never be able to see.
I plan to die on the moon, or in a swordfight and for some reason...I feel like I can make that happen somehow
....Damn, sometimes i even bore myself...
Albert Einstein says: "Intelligence is nothing without imagination"
"True words are never beautiful, and beautful words are never true"

My Interests

I'm up for just about anything...and ill try anything at least once, and i smoke, so fuck you. I didn't give up smoking for martial arts, and I am certainly not going to give it up for you

"The complex mechanisms of the modern world depend as certainly on the faith in money as the structures of the medieval world depended upon faith in God."

"the pieces of green paper have value because everybody thinks they have value." ~Milton Friedman (Nobel-Prize Winning Economist)

"If the American people ever allow the banks to control issuance of their currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers occupied."(ThomasJefferson)

The universe is shaped exactly like the earth, if you go straight for long enough you'll end up where you were.

THE TEMPLE OF THE PREMIER OF SHU
Where to seek the temple of the noble Premier?
In the deep pine forest beside the City of Silk,
Where the green grass of spring cover the steps,
And songbirds chirp happily between the leaves.
Triple summons weighted by affairs of the State
To two generations he served with his true heart,
To die before completing a lifetime of achievement,
Always have heroes weep on their fleece ever since

In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time someting like that happened in politics or religion.
~Carl Sagan
