DODGERS OFF-TOPIC Thread

beginning to realize rube might be the ultimate hipster
ironic, acute, unpredictable... and none of it contrived
if dsp were oregon, rube would be portland

 

everyone is chronicling on about something
why not something thats real and about everything?
i used to chronicle the history of the four sports, i could rattle off every stat, hometown, college, etc... of most players.
if you collect sports cards and you are anal about it you end up memorizing all sorts of things
same with comic book collectors which i wasnt.
but you see how a comic book geeks mind works, how he obsesses over the details of his comic books and knows all the intricate plot points and their meaning across a multiple words or instances of the universe
i am a huge comic book nerd, except i only have a few comics which i got later in life for research
because the people who play like i play are usually involved with comic books
if you take a comics nerd and tell him to apply all that he knows about comic books, including how to study and juggle the information in your head and apply it to the history of the world... you can see the possibilities.
comic book nerds, sabermetric nerds, dungeons and dragons nerds, etc...
being a huge superfan is a prerequisite
because you need to have passion to do something that is time consuming, difficult, and mind wearing like being a super fan
no one is going to pay you for being a super fan, no one will care, its just your own thing that you love to do

Now.
My cleverness is gone, and whats left is embarrassing. Like what happens to a lot of abilities that are misused for too long.
Naturally i replace an idea with a short word or sentence that would spark the desired train of thought in the mind of the reader.
Everything is about meme recognition and when i write from a non measured POV I tend to rely heavily on memes.
Each meme then should build upon the rest of the memes in order to provide a fuller picture of ideas in the mind.
That is how comics and the bible are set up too. As well as classic literature.
Why you dont read things once but many times for many reasons.
And the text can then continue feeding you over a lifetime.

Changing the world?
I had a hard time changing the bedclothes of my dogs house yesterday, the world already has a savior.
Each mind is a world, thats the world Ive been fighting to change.
Its a spartacus type of deal.
he only way we can stop from being collectively gas chambered is to stand up and lead
not ask for leadership, not look to the guy to the right and left but to be center stage
not one but all the young dudes

Where i stand is in the center, on the solid foundation and under the stands where people spectate.
The foundation is the faith.
It helps you understand the spectators and creates desire within to help pass them the codes that would help them become players not just spectators.

These codes are easy, well the broad ones.
Girls in tight sweaters and knee high skirts = protestant churches like JW, LDS, Methodists, Baptists, Lutherans, etc...
In literature cities like ships are referred to as women. Churches are at their core little cities.

Take a stand?
Everyone walking on PC eggshells and building their homes on sandstone boulders sure to topple over with a hint of storm.
Not doing that is already putting you on more solid footing than the rest.
And simply stating 'i believe this', or 'im against this' is not taking a stand.
Thats the spectator sport version of the game.
I see people doing that all the time, demanding others to take a stand on something is only there to make the person demanding feel better and in control.
Like when a cop beats someone up you are asked to take a stand what side are you on.
Take a stand on the Israel/Palestine fighting. Take a stand on the republicans versus democrats., etc...
People want you to tell them your stand so they can either feel good or feel bad about you and not have to analyze anything.
Its a sure sign of a lazy frontal lobe that is hardening like a cholesterol filled heart.
Where you think that you can somehow change the world, that you can bring peace to the middle east. lol
That is the result of brain damage and an overinflated ego.

And Mason Jars are filled with all sorts of possibilities man.
Like Pandoras Box and a saucer full of secrets.

You ask why do I speak like this?
Because im not speaking, im texting.
And this is how you communicate con text.

 

I watched it a bit during the trade deadline and I wanted to shove a sock full of shit into his mouth

 

i took a greyhoud to portland once, then to walla walla and other small blackberry producing towns in washington
met a lot of girls on the bus

and yeah, people call me a hipster when they see me
but i wear head coverings and other coverings because of body heat regulation
not because they look cool, grandmas knit stockings dont look cool but they keep me warm
im not clever or else i would have taken better care of my bodily functions, but i can barely remember where i put my toothbrush each day
who cares if one sock is different or my hair is not kept and i carry no papers when im out and about?
i dont care, but others do and say im a hipster or worse
which took me by surprise because i had been out of it for a few years when the hipster thing was all over the place
twirling your moustache is only ok when you get out of the shower and you are being a goof in front of the mirror
any other reason is a douche move done by the fringe element when the fringe is scared of whats about to happen
like the french back in the day

look there is always ways to spot the guys lost from the guys not lost in the fringe
btw, fringe is france is the same word
when france became the fringe of the world the people became either afraid, indifferent, or they fought back
frenchies dont have much talent in the warfare dept, and not enough manpower either way
so they fight with other talents
and have to deal with the scared or indifferents around them
people always ready to unbelieve when times get tough
and people auto identify without even knowing it
when playing a role playing game the characters you fight with or against all have signs/flags/titles that let you know important things about them
same with real life, everyone auto identifies some way or another

lets say you are an army ranger
and you are in deep cover in afghanistan
you just start your assignment in a week so you start letting your beard grow
you are smart, you try to game the system because the system of pattern recognition that we all have will trigger when an afghan sees you clean shaven
it will also show your american features more clearly
so you grow your beard, get a tan, put on your afghan garb, and go out to do some recon
you are incognito and blended in as an afghan
but not to the afghans
maybe the afghans inherently know things you do not
like how if a man grows his hair and beard they will look nappy soon
so a man takes a blade and shaves the sides of his beard and cuts the sides of his hair
it looks better, more fierce and manly and gives an ego boost.
the long beard at the center and cropped at the corners as well as the fauxhawk with the shaved sides of the head is the desired style for a bad ass
humble people, people who are workers not soldiers, people with kids and families and lots of truly important matters dont spend that much time in the mirror looking like a bad ass
neither do warriors
but the cultural memory of the greek and roman soldier is embedded in their psyche
over time the soldier gets the sides of his hair buzzed off, either on purpose for style or from the irritation of the metal helmets chaffing the skin and killing the follicles
same with the sides of the beard as the soldier would wear cheekbone armor as part of his helmet.
eventually the man is left bald or with a receding hairline at both corners but a nice and full goatee.
so when that soldier then attempts to grow his hair and look like a local the locals can always spot him
well those that know what they are looking

of course the locals always share their information because the locals do not have the same types of tight communication controls
their communications have to be out in the open and shared for everyone to see
like when the PG calls out a play to his teammates or catcher throws up a sign for his pitcher.
sure you can try to steal the signs, but thats just going to get you to spin your wheels while you think you clever.

 

i feel you always come from a good place, no worries
but yeah, many times have people thrown that word my way in a disingenuous way
everyone is a comedian
i didnt get that vibe from you at all man

but i personally do not like being clever because being clever for its own sake is empty
and most of the time i go back and delete things where i feel ive done too much phrase turning
i think that i could write with some beauty, write in a way that pulls you in like a comfortable lazyboy
instead of writing in a way that purposefully weeds out those that dont care and also weeds out those that dont buy what it is that im selling
i know a little bit about marketing too, but i dont like the mass approach to selling.
i like to deal with the buying customer, even if its just one that comes to meet me at the marketplace
im not afraid of goading the customer, leading him on, pushing and prodding him along, doing what is required in order to have him see for himself that what im selling is what hes buying and im just the dude in the middle showing him where the contract is and where to sign on the dotted line

 

Wait what????
You edit before you post? For as long as I've known you, I've always assumed your posts were an unaltered stream of consciousness.

I'm going to have to go re-evaluate everything I thought I know about the world.

 

lol
yeah i edit sometimes when i catch things that are too cute
to be honest imo i edit a lot, usually out of embarrassment that my words sound contrived after second reading
or because i used too much of my personal life as example of the meme im trying to communicate
or because i know its too much or too soon
or because i get moody and decide no soup for you!

 

how was that movie, i havent seen it
im sure bane represents the stone hanging from the neck of the culture of gotham
movies repeat whats in books, history, and specially current state of the culture

a lot of times directors are bullies
luckily writers are usually nerds

 

dont do it
even if she makes the move first
dont do it
it will be fun for a while, then you will realize and you will be unhappy with yourself
so dont do it

nothing that starts from a douchebag move can ever end well

 

im in the same boat right now, been in it before
stuff like that just happens
you already got the knowledge down, thats half the battle won right there
and you feel like a jerk for even feeling like you do
and you talk about it which is cathartic for both you and others that may not know as much as you
so you would be considered equipped with both weapon and armor for your battle
so its up to you
cant really have any excuses since you know you are prepared
you have all the power in the situation, and also all the responsibility
if you fail its on you
resist the dark side lol
but seriously dont do it

 

btw, if any of you are looking to settle down, find a girl, get married... i know a lot of princesses, fair maidens, damsels in distress, and 40 year old virgins looking for sensitive types
i may be in for one of those, but then there is this fairy princess that popped up all of a sudden then left to another land but now magically is back in our valley
