This is Nell - I trained her to do the anti-surveillance blurry-face technique from 'Four Lions'.
And in this pic, it may look like an 'action' shot, but she's actually managed to freeze time. I'm that good at training "NELL, FREEZE IN MID-AIR":

Say nothing, just spend the 30 secs staring into the World's eyes with the full weight of your existential soul, to make it go insane.
@PetrAPark3r I am ALASS unable to caricature the 'stronger sex', because ...they're just too complicated. It'd be like John Carpenter's The Thing always getting tripped up somehow, be it through a blood test or just having the earring in the wrong ear-hole. No one has ever come close to exposing the secret that females carry within. For sure it's some kind of aloofness or exclusivity, but what's the exact secret? WHAT'S THE EXACT SECRET?
Your best mate asks you to look after her baby because a bloke in the next county is listening to a very rare 'Killers' CD and she wants to go and have a listen. Your best mate asks you to look after her baby because she wants to get a very rare ice cream, but the ice cream van is 40 miles away. Your best mate asks you to look after her baby because she's been called up to fight in a war with Iran / North Korea / Russia.
Now, some sicko terrorists say you've got to write a word on the baby's forehead in NON-TOXIC WHITEBOARD marker pen. What would it be?
You're right. Hyprocrisy is where it's at. I still aim to be a working class industry man, ala my dad, both grandads, etc ...and yet most of my work nowadays involves typing crap into a computer :male-teacher: <-- is that the right emoji for nerd?
Have. Have you ever licked a painting in an art gallery?
I have a little angel on my left shoulder telling me to good stuff.
And a little devil on my right shoulder telling me to do bad stuff.
But mainly I just think, 'What would Stalin do?'
What. What is your favourite thing to shout at people from the car window?
This is a very profound and provocative post, though. It's no hype to say that I'm as excited by your output, @Кara, as I was while first reading 'The Unnamable' trilogy by Samuel Beckett. In a lot of ways, you're even more interesting than Beckett. As a 90 year old man with the world's most craggy face, he had good reason to be plagued by existentialism. You're an attractive teenage girl. The whole thing is just intriguing.
I mean, the whole thing just dovetails with my own thinking of late. The crazy actions of our brain structures, versus subatomic physics, and the way it's got no excuse for not tallying or making itself known in the collective unconscious ...and yet there's still no real meaning. You could say, 'Yeah, but we've only known about quantum physics for about a century, how could it have affected society so soon?' Yeah, but the vibe of quantum physics has always been with us. We've always known something's going on. Consciousness is a powerful, meaty subject, but as a people we've done practically nothing to show it respect. We need distractions? Fine. But why distract ourselves with rubbish like capitalism, and familial ties, and sex, and fickle romance?
Another way this post ties up with my own thinking: supposing you could control the processing power of your own mind (and as computer nerds, this is only what a lot of modern people aspire to), and supposing you could go disincarnate (and as religious and / or people who want to live on ideologically after our deaths -- this is also what we want, right?) --what would you do? Where would you go? Would you embed yourself in someone else's mind? If that's the case, why don't 'The Dead' ever give us a look in, and gently nudge us towards a more contemplative lifestyle?
Y'know. It'd be nice to think your post would set this place alight. Maybe wise old alumini like @spaceboy, @TheRisingSun or @nightshifter could give their opinions?
I mean, it's less quarantine, more a terrible kind of freedom, isn't it?
It's POSSIBLE, I think, TWS trumps the real world because it's so much easier to use. Who'd want to chat with a real world punter when the Shoutbox offers such a NEAT, BASIC, STRIPPED-DOWN means of communication like, ':grimacing: :gun:', 'PLEASE SEND NUDES', and with @Pamela to look after nutters and lovesicks.
This place is a human zoo, with a bit of everything. @Scottish, tho we've never met, I consider him an honourary schoolfriend cos we share so much 90's CULTURE. And @mozy is like the son I never had because 1 he needs constant entertainment and 2 I don't understand him.
@spaceboy he wise. And @pe7erpark3r he basically CS Lewis 2020. You want yr soul saving / exploring? Rock up to that guy.
Above all? You like staring at the horizon, do ya m8? Going out and meeting someone INTERESTING? Well right now, they're in exactly the same position as you, so you might as well stay at home and Talk with some Nutters Strangers.
Now there's a fascinating, ballsy topic. Dunno. I'm pretty sure that I have a super-low IQ, but I compensate by being well-read, and having a good vocabulary, so it'd be hypocritical for me to expect intelligence in prospective pal. Just some good word-play and surreality, maybe some edgy dialogue, that's all I ask.
Well 'Right now' implies something currently in the charts -- and usually you'd be shh out of luck, @ninja-boy, because I h8 90% of chart music -- but the new Noel Gallagher single is amazeballs (as is most High Flying Birds output). There's that new documentary about Liam, and - yeah, I like him as a personality- but let's not pretend that Noel isn't the better musician, dunchathink?
What @PetrAPark3r said, but with more of an appreciation for the fact that I was a wrong un with a very bad vibe.
@Karina-Kara @Lurker @spaceboy @Wolfie_11 @lego-batman @Vanessa-Snow @existence each have an Infinity Gem which you'll need to get before gaining ULTIMATE POWER.
DON'T pretend you're a square, in the employ of The Man ...give me your best music / muzak to get high to. Ideally, I want to find a piece of music that's so POTENT that I don't even need an acid tab, or a mushroom, and I'll hear it and just start floating round the ceiling, and my co-workers will have to bring me down with a lasso.
