eggs? arrospok? thread tourettes? i stop at lights for two simple and distinct reasons, 1) when i dont know the lights / timing sequence / angle of attack of oncoming cars, and 2) if theres a police car at the head coming from any direction. so usually i dont stop, but i do try my best to flow, which, i think, that website misunderstands / cant comprehend.
-
if we had tourettes wouldnt we be keeping the thread tidy, doing things an equal number of times and yelling "eat me bailey"?
-
sorry, got that confused with coprolalia. my bad. (its easily done.)
-
i was hopeing some one would jump on my book referance
-
im not sure about bailey, but keeping tidy threads (which, incidently, sounds like a hip-hop phrase) would be more in line being anal retentive, no? is that a diagnosable condition? or do they just blanket-case them all under the moniker, "manager" ?

the book would be motherless brooklyn
and troutes is kind of an extreme and manic form of OCD
-
man, i thought that was a fish. im all lisdexic these days.
and i dont think its extreme or manic form of OCD - else people with troutes would be manic - and theyre not. (i think i smell a joke that missed, but i cant tell... could i have missed a joke? another book reference?)
-
ah but tourtes suffers are prone to fits of mania, the need to organize, or touch everything in room, their mania is just expressed different then your traditional manic depressives. of course this is all a bit of a oversimplification, it would probably be better to say that people who suffer from troutes are obsessive (the need to stick to rotenes, and do things a cretin number of times) and compulsive (the shouting/ cursing, organizing ect) and their compulsion can take on manic forms, as can their obsessions. or at least thats as far as i understand it.
are we far enough off topic yet?

wankers!

tynan [quote]asm [quote]I think the real use of that question is that, by evoking a sense of mystery, it provokes thought in providing an answer. What is important is not the answer, but the fact that it makes people think.
Don't get all philosophical on ma' ass ! ;P
I agree 100% that answers are often the trivial part, but in this case the set-up is so basic that the thought provoked by this crap question is pretty shallow, it is essentially a trick question, equivocation.[/quote]
It's not a trick question! The 'tree falling in a forest' question is a really useful way of separating our realist and anti-realist theories. For instance, an idealist would say if no-one hears it (or is experiencing it) then not only does the tree not make a sound, but the tree itself does not even exist.

"if no-one hears it (or is experiencing it) then not only does the tree not make a sound, but the tree itself does not even exist."
So the trees excistance only matters f a person hears it. Being as a tree can not live a truly isolated excistance there will always be another liveing organisum which will sense the falling tree so it will exist.

The question is a trick question in the respect that it equivocates the word 'sound'.
Clarify what it is you mean by sound and the question answers itself.
