"Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Here’s Tom with the weather."
-Bill Hicks
"It's amazing to me that I can sit back and watch the diminishing of something great... to have a canvas right under your nose and refuse to pick up the brush, and to see people that are just content with that. It's absolutely absurd. So if this applies to you, do me a favor. Get your fucking head out of your ass, quit making fucking bullshit excuses, quit crying over spilled milk, get your ass in gear and start taking shit seriously. There's a whole lot more to life then sitting around wasting it. Time is of the essence, and there is no excuse why you should be sitting on the toilet if you don't have to shit."
-Drew
"The great thing about all of that is that we now know – because of all the research that’s done in neurologly – we now know that we can’t actually remember very much, so a lot of the arguments about who did or said what are all actually irrelevent because, however much we may think we remember, we now know the brain will invent memories that suit the ego of the person who owns the brain. It’s not a reliable instrument, even faintly. So, for instance, if Nick thinks he helped me make the cash register loop for Money and I seem to remember doing it on my own in a shed in the bottom of my garden, then there is absolutely no way of knowing whether he did or he didn’t. It’s not like somebody’s lying. The person who has the false memory will believe it absolutely and so… Oh, but who gives a fuck really?"
-Roger Waters
If I had a super power, it would be:
God Mode.
Is the glass half full or half empty?
It's completely empty because whatever was in the glass, I drank.
Are you a religious person?
Only if "Jedi" qualifies as a religion, and, oh wait, it does.
If you were marooned and could only bring one object, what would it be?
My apartment.
What is the first thing you do when you wake up?
Go back to sleep.
What do you want everyone to think of you?
I want them to know who I was. I want them to erect a twelve furlong tall marble statue of me with my index finger pointed meaningfully toward the sky. I want them to tell their grandchildren about how I singlehandedly made the sacrifice that saved the planet by reuniting apes and men.
Where do you see yourself in 4 years?
Making the sacrifice that saves the planet by reuniting apes and men.
All Hail Eris! Hail Discordia!

My Interests

Music. Movies. Graphic novels. Wine. Video games. Women.

I'd like to meet:


Reality is absolute awareness, but it cannot perceive itself because it is One. In order for the absolute knowledge even to know that it exists, it must manifest itself and become two. The world is the mirror that the Absolute holds up in order to see Itself. The reflection has no existence in itself. This act of manifestation is the creation of duality, and in duality, the whole world appears.
