What Are You Doing Right Now? (276 Viewers)

[Raz]

i took a philosophy course a couple semesters ago where we had to read plato's republic and that reminded me of it.

Well then it seems you really are in a position to call philosophy bullshit. Excuse me for doubting you.

No, he is Jewish.

 

[Dostoevsky]

I think most philosophy is bullshit. No offense to any people interested in it.

It awakes creativity and makes you think outside of the box.

 

[Raz]

Ouch?

It's ok we lithiuanians know a thing or two about both, polish and jews.

The whole anti semitism is a joke.

 

[Dostoevsky]

Yeah, I remember doing one of those surveys years ago.

Turned out my idea of what you need (i.e. the basic essentials to live, plus a little bit) is very different to what the general population thought was needed.

Majority of people just get the need to buy something new and consider it a must. But it's not about shopping at all, it just shows how people change(d) (and took the wrong route?).

30 years from now, that number might be different ... as in, "Who needs a TV? Isn't everyone getting their entertainment on tablets now?"

I've been listening to a lot of music from the 70s and 80s lately. And you can hear references to many things that no longer exist -- like the love letter, the answering machine, the complete obliviousness to things like social media or texting or the idea of a lack of social privacy among your friends who all have Facebook accounts and mobile phone cameras.

And yet at the same time I've encountered music that has no idea how prescient it was at the time. I was listening to "Ted, Just Admit It" by Jane's Addiction on my hike this morning. The whole idea of ubiquitous imagery and sexual violence and exposure has only gotten 5x worse than they thought back 25 years ago.

That's actually a good point. But it's not just 'let's buy that because it's what people do now'. The general behavior is totally changed and it even reflects in music. Biggest worry is how people nowadays are just way more stressed, they have less time for everything (NOT ME!), they have more money but hey - bigger debts, they can't recognize and admire simple and basic stuff.

Globalization.

Economically the root of all evil (besides IMF). But yeah, it surely had its impact on whole thing.

"The deepest problems of modern life flow from the attempt of the individual to maintain the independence and individuality of his existence against the sovereign powers of society, against the weight of the historical heritage and the external culture and technique of life. The antagonism represents the most modern form of the conflict which primitive man must carry on with nature for his own bodily existence. The eighteenth century may have called for liberation from all the ties which grew up historically in politics, in religion, in morality and in economics in order to permit the original natural virtue of man, which is equal in everyone, to develop without inhibition; the nineteenth century may have sought to promote, in addition to man's freedom, his individuality (which is connected with the division of labor) and his achievements which make him unique and indispensable but which at the same time make him so much the more dependent on the complementary activity of others; Nietzsche may have seen the relentless struggle of the individual as the prerequisite for his full development, while socialism found the same thing in the suppression of all competition - but in each of these the same fundamental motive was at work, namely the resistance of the individual to being levelled, swallowed up in the social-technological mechanism."

that is your struggle dusko

Badass quote.

I was reading about Nietzsche just recently.

@Martin (or anyone)

mia madre è il segretario

mia madre è segretario

are both correct and when/why do you use il in come cases? Does that il points out to be a specific one?

- - - Updated - - -

And when exactly do you use fa?

 

[Cuti]

mia madre e il segretaria = my mother is the secretary

mia madre e segretario doesn't make sense.

Mia madre e una segretaria = my mother is a secretary.

- - - Updated - - -

the 'il' is indicative towards a certain company, whereas the second would be a more generic statement

 

[Klin]

Segretaria, unless you have a fucked up mum.

 

[Dostoevsky]

mia madre e il segretaria = my mother is the secretary

mia madre e segretario doesn't make sense.

Mia madre e una segretaria = my mother is a secretary.

Cheers.

Segretaria, unless you have a fucked up mum.

Like any drug it's probably useful when prescribed to someone who actually needs it. Albinos and what not.

Yes it does. I would say "Sono segretaria" or "Faccio la segretaria", but never "sono una segretaria".

actually quite the opposite beauty here is in the true aesthetics(as in the philosophical discipline) sense, the physical "beauty" is under the appetite for generation. It's kind of like the guy who enjoys sleeping with his wife of 30 years despite the availability of better looking women.

After ten years you deserve a menage.:faq2:
