You're incorrect.

In order to proceed I require no one to comprehend for me.

(Tip: to be effective, one-liners must be true, not self-cherishing).

Let's start again Walker. Seriously. What exactly is your core philosophy? I can and have given mime since I began on this forum, more so than most. What is yours? (That's a sincere question. I'm trying to understand you.)

If you want to know that, read my past postings. It's right there for you to comprehend, for yourself. And that's a sincere answer.

Actually, it's not. You are all over the place.

Yes, it is.

That’s why I wrote it.

And you want me to explain something more complex than that.

Sure. Like I said.

Not talking of your sincerity. I'm talking about you saying there's something coherent to comprehend. Anyways, this is pointless, so goodnight.

I knew that's what you meant.

And now you see what I mean.

No it's not. And no I don't. And I also don't get why you hide your status. It's obvious who and when you are online.

You want to know, but you can’t be bothered to find out. You want me to comprehend me for you, so you don’t have to.

Why?


Status? Hide? You've got a punk way of putting things, you know that?

Try talking substance for a change instead of the pettiness you always latch onto.

You are a petty person, and you waste my time.

Blah blah blah. You waste your own time. I have nothing to do with it. Take responsibility for your own actions.

You ask me to condense my philosophy of life for you to read, and then you tell me you have nothing to do with wasting my time.

That means in addition to being a punk, you're a liar.

Which is why I didn't even entertain the thought. Because your intent is petty.

Oh, just shut it then. Better yet, just block me. Your own ego is wasting your time.

Precisely.

Go sell no somewhere else.

And maybe actually think about something philosophical.

Like, why did Rand say that God = Ego.

Full circle.

Like pulling teeth.

See. Ego is wasting your time. Not me, nor God.
