[QUOTE=cbmartinez;13398276]Because it's an amazing book. It's written in like that old language yet it's easy to understand. But it's just a really good book too. I think I'm gonna read the other two even though they're not going to be as cool as reading about hell.

Thank You For Smoking is excellent, I saw it in theatres.[/QUOTE]
oh, i see what your saying. i just don't really think like that. i personally just don't see much point in reading some guy's made up vision of hell because it is well written. there is just so much real stuff out there that i want to learn about first.

i just finished "diplomacy" by henry kissinger, which was amazingly good. now i'm debating between "the history of the peloponnesian war" by thucydides and "on killing" by lt. col. dave grossman.

[I]The Inferno [/I]is just good to read, because like the Bible, people allude to it alot. It's alot easier to understand poetry, and "flowery" writing when you've read alot of "classics" persay, because lots of authors now make references too them, that would otherwise be lost.

srt-4 10-07-2006 03:19 PM

very good point. but taking into account time constraints, i just don't find it to be a very good use of my time. i would rather focus on "classic" writers more grounded in reality like aristotle, machiavelli, hobbes, locke, ect. and i have read the Bible, being of infinitely more importance than the inferno.

What do you mean grounded in reality?

Every piece of great literature is grounded in reality, it's just some stories use fictional enviroments too get across their social/political issues. The inferno examines the seven deadly sins and other such nonsense, it's basically just a poetic commentary on the evils of our lives.

it seems like coke in the pussy should do something... because coke up the nose works.

why not in the pussy?

pixiesfanyo 10-07-2006 06:29 PM

because, taking coke through the nose asborbs it, into your nose mucous ****.

if things in the vag were absorbed then all girls would walk around smelling like fish.

Matt? 10-07-2006 06:32 PM

ah makes sense, i just figured they were absorbed because of the std thing.

[QUOTE=cbmartinez;13398447]Tab out some of the songs for me then. You're making the same arguments Jared made. Then he sent me some Cynic song that was boring and really minimally technical.[/QUOTE]

Uh.

Compare Cynic to NJ plz.

Awesome.

A_Perfect_Sonnet 10-07-2006 11:40 PM

I hate the fat balding guy in that red shirt.

cobert 10-07-2006 11:44 PM

Then the skinny spock dude in the red shirt up front keeps feeling up Jay.

A_Perfect_Sonnet 10-07-2006 11:47 PM

Is he to the left? Or is it someone else?

cobert 10-07-2006 11:47 PM

Yeah, to the left.

A_Perfect_Sonnet 10-08-2006 12:04 AM

That's the one I hate.

cobert 10-08-2006 12:09 AM

Oh I thought you meant the fat dude that was kind of behind him that crept up front after a few songs.

A_Perfect_Sonnet 10-08-2006 12:22 AM

They both suck.

Matt? 10-08-2006 12:49 PM

i think we should have a forced listening thread where people can post mp3s and stuff and rate them sorta like that other one in that other forum.

someone start this... or lets just talk about new different bands

would you use your skills to tab out something from cryonics?

by more grounded in reality i mean addressing real-life issues and correspondingly offering applicable insights and knowledge to a greater extent. i just don't see the inferno imparting very much useful knowlege when compared to some other "classics." if we are talking about religious-based western classics, i would put works from saint thomas aquinas and saint augustine, for instance, far above dante's in terms of practical usefulness.

i'm not saying its a bad work to read or anything though. i'm just saying, i personally don't see much point in reading it right now.

oh snap, turkey in a few hours

me so hungy!!

I don't like cryonics that much and everything is mixed kind of low
