23 Май беше датата на европейската премиера. Срещата с вземането на кутиите в 24:00 мина добре - чакането на Дядо Конан донесе добър луут. Следващите 2 дни ще съм командирована в Hyboria. Трябва гилдии да се организират, хора да се координират, строежи, чудеса... Сървърът е Soulstorm (PVP), никът си е моя PS: Има немалък шанс гилдията да се казва "Таратор". Бедни, бедни Хауърд, prepare to be raped от всичките милиони като нас!...

The one I've just took in particular: The Personality Defect Test You are the Haughty Intellectual. -------- You are a very rational person, emphasizing logic over emotion, and you are also rather arrogant and self-aggrandizing. You probably think of yourself as an intellectual, and you would like everyone to know it. Not only that, but you also tend to look down on others, thinking yourself better than them. You could possibly have an unhealthy obsession with yourself as well, thus causing everyone to hate you for being such an elitist twat. On top of all that, you are also introverted and gentle. This means that you are just a quiet thinker who wants fame and recognition, in all likelihood. Like so many countless pseudo-intellectuals swarming around vacuous internet forums to discuss worthless political issues, your kind is a scourge upon humanity, blathering and blathering on and on about all kinds of boring crap. If your personality could be sculpted, the resulting piece would be Rodin's "The Thinker"--although I am absolutely positive that you are not nearly as muscular or naked as that statue. Rather lacking in emotion, introspective, gentle, and arrogant, you are most certainly a Haughty Intellectual! And, most likely, you will never achieve the recognition or fame you so desire! But no worries! Ha ha! and the link to the test: http://www.okcupid.com/tests/4741219933576750506/Personality-Defect [1] -------- It says i scored more Rationality, Brutality, Extrovertion (-ism?) and Arrogance than 99% of my age and sex! woo-hoo! :D Okay - go test yourselves too. I'm starting the "The Sublime Philosophical Crap Test [2]". Now nothing with a name like that can be bad... :D ----------------------------- Edit: OK, i scored.. odd. And the test is weird. It turns out I'm a: N-A-R: a metaphysical Non-Reductionist, an epistemological Absolutist, and a moral Relativist. The descriptions for the 3 are mind-blowingly long so pasting them here is not an option. :) Some excerpts follow: -------- Metaphysics: Non-Reductionism (Idealism or Realism) ... (i seem to be Realist?!) ... Realists deny the validity of sloppy metaphysical reductions ... Realism is the most common-sensical of the metaphysical views. It doesn't see reality as a unity or as reducible to matter or mind, nor does it see reality as divided into a phenomenal world of experience and an unknowable noumenal world of things-in-themselves. Realist metaphysics emphasizes that reality is for the most part composed of the things we observe and think. ... Aristotle and Popper are famous realists. Epistemology: Absolutism (Rationalism or Pragmatism) ... As an Absolutist, you believe that objective knowledge is possible given the right approach, and you deny the claims of skeptical philosophers who insist that we can never have knowledge of ultimate reality. The two types of Absolutists recognized by my test are Rationalists and Pragmatists. ... Epistemological Pragmatists are fundamentally identified by their definition of truth. Truth is, on this view, merely a measure of a proposition's success in inquiry. This view is a strictly scientific notion of truth. A proposition can be called true if it leads to successful predictions or coheres best with the observed facts about the world. Thus, for the pragmatist, knowledge of reality is possible through scientific reasoning. ... Pragmatism borrows elements from realism and yet attempts to account for the critiques made by skeptics and relativists. It is essentially a type of philosophical opportunism--it borrows the best stances from a large number of philosophical systems and attempts to discard the problems of these systems by combining them with others. Ethics: Relativism (Subjectivism or Emotivism) ... Subjectivists see individual or collective desires as defining a situation's or object's moral worth. Thus, the subject, not the object itself, determines the value. ... In regards to the definition of "good" or "right", a Subjectivist will tend to define it as whatever a particular person or group of people desire. They do not define it merely as "happiness" or "pleasure", for instance, because sometimes we desire to do things that do not produce pleasure, and because we don't consider all pleasurable things good. Furthermore, Subjectivists recognize the validity of consequentialism in that sometimes we refer to consequences as good and bad--but they also recognize that our intentions behind an action, or the means to the end, can also determine an act's moral worth. Again, there is no one rule to determine these things. Hence the relativism of moral Subjectivism. The most well-known of the subjectivists is Nietzsche. -------- So what can I say :) It's all fun and games until some weird web-based personality test starts you thinking... :D And that concludes our broadcast day... ;) [1] http://www.okcupid.com/tests/4741219933576750506/Personality-Defect [2] http://www.okcupid.com/tests/13372526327873131397/Sublime-Philosophical-Crap

Болестите май ще са лайтмотива на деня. :) Медиците от Пирогов шестват в протест за заплати като недоволно тромбче в и без това нестабилното сърце на София, дали ще има резултат? Дончо е писал в блога си за последния филм на Майкъл Мур - http://blog.doncho.net/?p=546 [1] Ходете да го прочетете и сваляйте за гледане - както обикновено с документалистиката - ценността на въпроса, който се поставя е в повода за размисъл, а не налучкал ли е автора собствената ни теза. Приза за деня обаче, отива при блога на китайската паралелка от 18 СОУ - "Всичко за Китай", за бруталния цитат от древен трактат по медицина.

ОК, налага се да призная - "My naaame is Fiiire Foox. Aaim aa cartoonholic." ;) За удобство, можем да премем, че началото беше дадено от Futurama, вината за което е на Хей_Зъл - да е жива и здрава. Който не е гледал няколко сезона от сериал накуп, само той не знае какъв е ужаса на абстиненцията, която те удря като свършат и дойде осъзнаването, че навън в реалния свят, серийките се точат по 1 на седмица. При това, ако имаш късмета сериала да е още жив. (което не е случаят с Futurama. Daaamn you, Fox Network!!) Както и да е, преживях го. Оттогава насам се изредиха South Park, Family Guy, American Dad и ей напоследък в полезрението ми попадна това, което е и повод за постинга - Drawn Together [1] - откровено най-безумно декадентското (кви думи знаааам!) сериалче дотук. Знам, че такива изказвания са само flame-bait за скептицизма на всеки, но вярвайте ми - преувеличение няма. Пиша това след като изгледах и втория сезон. Идеята е безумна - риалити шоу от типа на ББрадър, с участието на разнотипни анимационни герои [2] вариращи от Капитан Герой ("the lamest superhero in the universe"), Toot - затлъствяща звезда на черно-бялата анимация от 20-те, през Зендър - куест герой от електронна игра, който открива, че е гей, та до Уолдор Сокбат, който е абсолютно неописуем без помощта на психотропни вещества. От пропуснатите в горното изречение заслужават споменаване още двама - Foxxy Love - чернокожата певица-детектив, която изнася на гърба си половината от расистките майтапи в цялото расистко-стереотипско шоу и голямата ми малка нова любов - ЛИНГ-ЛИНГ! [3] - свръхагресивен покемон, на който се пада другата половина от расистката квота. :) Линг-Линг обаче има едно съществено еволюционно предимство - суперсладък е! ^_^ Вижте сами: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXQRizEuk1o [4] ( това е сцена, в която Линг-Линг е принуден от Прасето (The Internet Download Pig) да шие маратонки, понеже е азиатец и му се отдава, а The HonorabRe Pig Demon, както го наричат малките китайчета, които гладуват, понеже не могат да се конкурират с покемона, е сключил договор за доставка на голямо количество фалшиви найкове за НБА. Линг-Линг пее тъжна песен за изгубеното златно минало, в което е изкормил най-добрия си приятел - момченцето, което го е притежавало (явно аналог на Ash - треньора на Пикачу). Къса сърца и между другото - кърти мифффки всякакви. ^_^ ) за изчерпателност - ето и "представителна" извадка от съдържанието на първите 2 сезона - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrWi-z4sFcU [5] и още един епизод с Линг-Линг - шофьорски изпит (някакъв стереотип явно има, че азиатците не могат да карат коли :) ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdaQSjH6DL0 [6] аз ще отида да дръпна и седемте епизода на трети. :) не е толкова добро като South Park и Family Guy, но все е нещо, колкото да подхранва зависимостта ми :D~ [1] http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=drawn+together&search=Search [2] http://animatedtv.about.com/od/drawntogether/ig/-Drawn-Together--Season-2/index.htm [3] http://ffox.fccf.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/20060510115037-lldestroy1.jpg [4] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXQRizEuk1o [5] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrWi-z4sFcU [6] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdaQSjH6DL0

I found some parts in the wreckage are you lookin for these?" Through the ruins to the Academy To a place where the prince would rather be, you see His daddy, got a few problems Problem is that he can't solve 'em So he says "You're no longer my son.

To Kryta, to Carlotta the spider The Arch to the Henge using Stefan the Fighter Meet the White Mantle and beat the White Mantle Go to the desert and flee from the scandal Reach for Elona and Rivers of Thirst Ascend after Dunes by doing your worst To yourself then fulfilling by Glint's grand design 'Cause the prophecy states at Perdition you'll find The Vizier is a fake, he's really the Lich Beat him, take the scepter, and finish this bitch.

перфектен комикстрип в литъл геймърс! общо взето, не оставя място за коментар, ама аз все пак да добавя един полуцитат, който ме грабна наскоро - "Не че имам нещо против равноправието на религиите, ама... абе, все пак няма будистки терористи, нали?"

е не, днес е хубав ден - не стига, че намерих чудесното разказче от предния пост, а сега и това:

Страхотен къс разказ, почти анекдот, на който попаднах съвсем случайно браузейки из новината за клонирано телешко в слашдот. [1] ххЕниуей - по същество, Ecce Story: (да взема да я преведа може, би?) източник: http://www.electricstory.com/stories/story.aspx?title=meat/meat [2] "They're Made Out of Meat"by Terry Bisson “They’re made out of meat.” “Meat?” “Meat. They’re made out of meat.” “Meat?” “There’s no doubt about it. We picked up several from different parts of the planet, took them aboard our recon vessels, and probed them all the way through. They’re completely meat.” “That’s impossible. What about the radio signals? The messages to the stars?” “They use the radio waves to talk, but the signals don’t come from them. The signals come from machines.” “So who made the machines? That’s who we want to contact.” “They made the machines. That’s what I’m trying to tell you. Meat made the machines.” “That’s ridiculous. How can meat make a machine? You’re asking me to believe in sentient meat.” “I’m not asking you, I’m telling you. These creatures are the only sentient race in that sector and they’re made out of meat.” “Maybe they’re like the orfolei. You know, a carbon-based intelligence that goes through a meat stage.” “Nope. They’re born meat and they die meat. We studied them for several of their life spans, which didn’t take long. Do you have any idea what’s the life span of meat?” “Spare me. Okay, maybe they’re only part meat. You know, like the weddilei. A meat head with an electron plasma brain inside.” “Nope. We thought of that, since they do have meat heads, like the weddilei. But I told you, we probed them. They’re meat all the way through.” “No brain?” “Oh, there’s a brain all right. It’s just that the brain is made out of meat! That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you.” “So . . . what does the thinking?” “You’re not understanding, are you? You’re refusing to deal with what I’m telling you. The brain does the thinking. The meat.” “Thinking meat! You’re asking me to believe in thinking meat!” “Yes, thinking meat! Conscious meat! Loving meat. Dreaming meat. The meat is the whole deal! Are you beginning to get the picture or do I have to start all over?” “Omigod. You’re serious then. They’re made out of meat.” “Thank you. Finally. Yes. They are indeed made out of meat. And they’ve been trying to get in touch with us for almost a hundred of their years.” “Omigod. So what does this meat have in mind?” “First it wants to talk to us. Then I imagine it wants to explore the Universe, contact other sentiences, swap ideas and information. The usual.” “We’re supposed to talk to meat.” “That’s the idea. That’s the message they’re sending out by radio. ‘Hello. Anyone out there? Anybody home?’ That sort of thing.” “They actually do talk, then. They use words, ideas, concepts?” “Oh, yes. Except they do it with meat.” “I thought you just told me they used radio.” “They do, but what do you think is on the radio? Meat sounds. You know how when you slap or flap meat, it makes a noise? They talk by flapping their meat at each other. They can even sing by squirting air through their meat.” “Omigod. Singing meat. This is altogether too much. So what do you advise?” “Officially or unofficially?” “Both.” “Officially, we are required to contact, welcome, and log in any and all sentient races or multibeings in this quadrant of the Universe, without prejudice, fear, or favor. Unofficially, I advise that we erase the records and forget the whole thing.” “I was hoping you would say that.” “It seems harsh, but there is a limit. Do we really want to make contact with meat?” “I agree one hundred percent. What’s there to say? ‘Hello, meat. How’s it going?’ But will this work? How many planets are we dealing with here?” “Just one. They can travel to other planets in special meat containers, but they can’t live on them. And being meat, they can only travel through C space. Which limits them to the speed of light and makes the possibility of their ever making contact pretty slim. Infinitesimal, in fact.” “So we just pretend there’s no one home in the Universe.” “That’s it.” “Cruel. But you said it yourself, who wants to meet meat? And the ones who have been aboard our vessels, the ones you probed? You’re sure they won’t remember?” “They’ll be considered crackpots if they do. We went into their heads and smoothed out their meat so that we’re just a dream to them.” “A dream to meat! How strangely appropriate, that we should be meat’s dream.” “And we marked the entire sector unoccupied.” “Good. Agreed, officially and unofficially. Case closed. Any others? Anyone interesting on that side of the galaxy?” “Yes, a rather shy but sweet hydrogen-core cluster intelligence in a class-nine star in G445 zone was in contact two galactic rotations ago, wants to be friendly again.” “They always come around.” “And why not? Imagine how unbearably, how unutterably cold the Universe would be if one were all alone . . . ” [1] http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/08/24/2234224&from=rss [2] http://www.electricstory.com/stories/story.aspx?title=meat/meat
