I like my job, except for the last 15 minutes of the day when 2 white trash teenagers come up and say they're printing 50 copies of an invitation to one of them's 21st birthday party at someone's house and do I want to come and how much money do I make, while at the same time someone else just copied 11 pages on the copier (which costs $1.10) and their 4 year old son hands me 2 bills crumpled together and I see the top one is a $1 so treat them both as $1 bills and hand the lady 90 cents change and then she comes back 2 minutes later and asks where the rest of the change is while I'm trying to open 40 dvd cases to some mentally retarded kid who's there with his grandma and another retarded guy is waving energetically and becoming angry because we don't have any white ink to give him and I can't give him his printouts from one floor down.

Normally my punctuation is exquisite; for that particular piece however, I felt that making it a large run-on sentence more adequately got the feeling of the moment across.

Nono, Realpoor is the armpit, the end of the internet is about 30 pages up the street.

the way i see it
people would otherwise live 3 decades then die after living a life of hunting, eating, sleeping, eating, s******g, having ****, more eating and more sleeping followed by more ****...
but thats only if you're the dad.
if you're the kids "help hunt, eat, chores"
if you're the wife "work"
thats the life of a tribal "workless" life
now for OUR tribe:
people can't do everythign they need done by themselves (dentistry, car work, food preparation, etc.) so they specialize and do as much as they can with that.
now for my thesis, if people cannot do as much work as others do for them they are a waste and should be shot in the face with a sand bag in the face until their parasitic body gets the idea and works harder then ever.
of course people call this "communism" or whatever else they'd like to name it, but the truth is capitalism is just that woth more in between steps that makes everyone "equal", and some laws protecting this free will bs.
which brings me to another point, people don't have free will...
you do what your brain tells you to, no matter what if you were placed in the same scenario over and over again given the same experiences and mental proccesses you would do the same thing for that specific expariment (same reason why you score the same on IQ tests, you brain used whatever logic it could as fast as it could (although not with the same questions) and came up with the same overall score.
in essence we're all on this earth f*****g eachother one way or another and seek pleasures, power, emotional relief, and spiritual understanding...
cept that last part doesn't fit if you disect it unless you disect it to the basics, fun huh?...
my fear above all fears would be that there is no god and that we are a manifestation of ourselves and that possibly you (me) ar the only thing here in the world that we cannot know until we are "gone"...
so thats just another angle of looking at work.

Prove it.
If it happens the way that you say, then we are inherently deterministic organisms with no free will.
If we choose different outcomes in *exactly* identical situations, then there is something chaotic and random inside our decision making processes that defines our free will.

that would be kewl if there was, but there most likely isn't, regardless, fatalism argues we would in fact do what that "random factor" decides at any instance and we in fact have no free will.

The majority of my posts are from 8pm to 2am.
I can guarantee I do more work than you.
By work I mean things that actually require physical movement.
That's something you don't get alot of is it Paco.
Beside the job I have I also have to keep 17 acres looking nice.
Cutting grass cutting pastures. Trimming stuff ya know the stuff you would prolly have a heart attack doing.
I may be soggy in the mid section but i'm strong as hell

ATM Banana, the subject reminds me of a short SF story I read a couple months ago by Larry Niven called "All the Myriad Ways".
Rereading the story leads me to suppose that even were simple determinism to be ruled out, the nature of quantum level reality and the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle can still be used to argue against free will.
One of the main reasons that the military pushed computer development back in the 40's and 50's was that they believed that with a sufficiently fast calculating device, they could forecast the weather weeks, months or even years in advance. As they found out, it's much too complex to forecast more than a few days in advance. Perhaps, like the weather, human nature is inherently deterministic, but due to quantum level fluctuations, appears random.

ATM just needs a job, then he won't have the free time or the free will to spend thinking about things he cannot change.
Larry Niven is the best, can't wait till they make Ring World or the Mote in Gods Eye a movie.

Omg yes!
I went and played Halo again just for the ringworld imagery. The first time I played it, right after I crashed in the escape pod from the Pillar of Autumn onto Halo, I was too busy standing around gaping at the arch of heaven to notice a Covenant dropship landing right behind me.
I saw he had another Ringworld book out when I was at the bookstore last week too, Ringworld Children. Haven't picked it up yet, reading like 5 other books atm :/
edit: btw Sci-fi channel has a 4 part Ringworld miniseries in the works too.
