    IRONIC HUMOR

    (funny)

    Criticizing the use of obscurant language while using obscurant language to insult the other party.

    I shouldn’t lower myself to doing this sh_t, but sometimes I cant help myself, because it’s just too much fun. It’s like teasing a cat with a laser. They can’t control themselves….. Endlessly entertaining. The victims of postmodern education. .

    @ MICHAEL

    The purpose of Postmodern speech is to change the meaning and value of terms in order to create a secular religion of totalitarian humanism.

    That you don’t grok this a statement about you, not a statement about the assertion.

    It’s not like it’s uncommon knowledge.

    I find a religion of humanism to be a problematic construct.

    That is not a criticism. 🙂 And you are not a measurement. 🙂 Only your arguments are.

    But, then lets look at Denial? The impossibility of material equality? The impossibility of political diversity? The impossibility of equality of ability? Or, my favorite: the evidence that the peer review process is nearly ineffective, and that the requirement for a book length treatment written in operational language appears to be the only empirical test of ideas? How about my favorite: The denial that mathematical platonism is an obscurant means of preserving verbal shortcuts and numerous errors?

    Knowledge of facts in a domain, and mastery of a specific discipline can compensate for a lack of intelligence. However, mastery of the art of thought, and the identification of true, utilitarian, and false statements appears to be a matter for experts in that field.

    The most important denial is this: the Dunning Kreuger curve. The inability for the incompetent to judge their own ability. 🙂

    (today’s ‘must read’)

    –The extension of the “denier” tag to group after group is a development that should alarm all liberal-minded people. One of the great achievements of the Enlightenment—the liberation of historical and scientific enquiry from dogma—is quietly being reversed. – Edward Skidelsky

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWyCCJ6B2WE”PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN”

    An early libertarian movie.

    In the book Dorothy’s slippers are made of silver (hard money)

    The great and powerful OZ is the theatre of government.

    Your only freedom from government is hard money.

    Now, I have a different theory, that is supported by better facts.

    Dorothy should have carried a sword and stuck OZ with it.

    The militia is the only ‘we’. Government is a small lottocratically elected group of citizens employed by ‘us’. The purpose of the militia is to PREVENT the STATE, and constrain government to property rights.

    Let every man be armed.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzNYCPZXvlwTHE LIBERAL ATTACK ON BLACK CULTURE AND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE BLACK FAMILY ‘BY STUPID WHITE PEOPLE’.

    (I mean, colonialism, communism, and our evangelical export of democracy wasnt enough damage? We need to destroy a whole Race’s chance of economic success?)

    Liberals only like black people that act like they desire them to. Because when black people are commercially successful that means that liberals can’t conspicuously consume status signals by demonstrating that they’re higher than these ‘pitiful’ people who need the help of gracious (selfish destructive) liberals.

    Dear FB.

    I know that you think Philosophers and Scientists are very different from Musicians and Actors. But you know, there are those of us who pretty much feel about philosophers like ordinary people feel about musicians and actors.

    So. Please stop treating me like a commercial proletarian. OK? Thanks. Cheers.

    http://www.jackdaniels.com/history/charcoal-mellowingJack Daniels, is a Kentucky Whiskey, (and not a bourbon, for the same reasons that distinguish vegetables from fruits – arbitrariness) And I’ve always wondered why it doesn’t set off my allergies. At all. Where, one or two sips of wine, and most vodka, sends me for my inhaler in moments.

    Now, I haven’t sent the stuff away for analysis or anything, but I assume that it’s gentility is due to two factors.

    1) It’s 80%+ corn (american meaning of the term) rather than wheat or rye

    2) It’s charcoal filtered prior to distillation by the Lincoln County process.

    I’ve tried using a charcoal water filter for vodka and that seems to help a lot. And of course, most of us know that if you put vodka or gin thru these filters six or seven times they become almost tasteless.
