How beautiful is life?

Didn't we go through this already?

quote:

---

The experience of life is what presents something beautiful. You're born into this world with the potential to spend each and every day getting blown by supermodels on a bed of money and tequila, or to wind up in a ditch, with a knife through your eye, covered in what you hope is your own vomit.

​

It's big and it's scary, and it's random and horrible and funny, and you have to hold on frikkin' tight or get blown off the edge. And that is Fucking Beautiful.

You kinda trailed off at that point.

I wouldn't worry too hard about confusion in the marketplace there, kiddo. Only one regular on this forum can use the word "fuck" with such wild abandon, and somehow make it sound like meditations from the Bhagavad Gita.Hint: it's not you.But yeah, just in case... if anyone's scratching their heads and wondering, "did Chris write that?" Well, no. That was me. True. Lotsa folks get born with a high potential on the injury-to-the-eye motif. How does this contradict what I said?Again, boyo... the experience is the beauty, wherever the ride takes you. Now I'm confused. Are you saying countries that use pesos don't have tequila?Man, that settles it. You and me, kid... road trip. Tijuana, Mexico! That'll chase those somber teenage blues away, while simultaneously showing you how readily one can find their pleasures, even in the shittiest of places. Yeah, it's pretty sweet, huh? Damn, we got dealt some lucky shit, there.

1) If I died, I wouldn't really be thinking much of anything. Either my mind would have been flipped off like a lightswitch, like I believe, or I would be safely nestled in the arms of the baby Jesus, as others have postulated. So either way, I very much doubt I'd be moaning about my fate.Death sucks for the people who survive it; the dead are really in no position to care.2) If I was alive, then that would seem to indicate that my travails had not caused me to cut my throat open, or jumped off a cliff, or what-have-you. So obviously, no matter how shitty my life, I would be seeing something about life that made me prefer to experience it than to not do so.3) If I did kill myself, see point 1.4) You are looking at life from the individual perspective. This is fine if your goal is to say, "look at this one guy here, doesn't his life suck?" But you keep going on about the world as a whole, and life as a whole. So you might want to widen your focus to the whole of life. Captial L fuckin'-a Life. Screw that. I have a moral objection to any state that doesn't let you smoke on the street.

Yeah, if only I could find some sort of well-ventilated area in which to smoke, like... jeez, I dunno... outside. Yes, I wish harm on others; you wish harm on the English language. So we'll call it even.Anyway, I'm off to go forcibly shove puppies into the rectums of orphans. It's what I do, what with my being eeeee-vil, and all.
