Reality sucks.

[Thinking Aloud]

Speaking of Shakespeare, my high school English teacher handed us all a sheet on the very last day. On it was this:

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

He said nothing else, and nothing else needed to be said.

[Gawdzilla Sama]

I have now. I had no. I will have no. I have now and how.

[Dustyrose]

Yes, But death is a release from earth bound body, this life, and all its problems.No more hassle not a bad deal is it, when you look at it that way.

It's the no more anything at all that some people spooked. "How can the Universe go on without me?" Rather grandiose.

You must have had the same teacher as me! Unless they all conspire, like maths teachers do...

Always loved Macbeth!

The universe might be disinterested and life might be fleeting but that doesn't mean we have to be negative, we can be positive and have a great time. :~D

I've had a ball, mostly, in my life. Even the disasters were "interesting".

It depends on whether you got money issues, but otherwise you are right!

[Daan]

Damn it Rachel Bean. My reality doesn't suck, seeing your picture!

Aw, thank you

Sounds like his way of telling all the drooling idiots he'd been teaching all year that they were mostly worthless pieces of shit who were doomed to a life of flipping burgers ending in an early grave from gang violence.

That, or it was a suicide note from a teacher who just couldn't take it anymore.

Well all be back as technogically resurrected personalities existing in subjective infinity in a black hole powered quantum computer at the end of time. So chill.

[Mysturji]

I thought this thread was going to be about black holes gobbling up all the spacetime in their vicinity.

Have you been hanging out with crumple again? It's true, in the end most of what we do doesn't matter at all especially in the context of the age of the universe, but it does matter to the people who are with us now. Even words on a screen can have a big impact on how we feel about ourselves and what we do with our lives. It's more of an excuse to take some chances and have some adventures, love a bunch of people, find little ways to make yourself and others happy and especially to not dwell on unimportant things. We are each here for such a short amount of time but we have this amazing ability to consider and create and experience. It's all just chemicals and electricity but holy crap it can be wonderful! If you're in the position to philosophize and post on your personal computer you are luckier than most people born at most times in the world, take advantage of it in every way you possibly can
