it is a little hard to read.... /quiet voice at the back

Are you unaware of the multi-quote facility or deliberately non-conformist? Sometimes conformity on more trivial matters can be a good tool to highlight those areas where it is imperative to go against the flow...

Just sayin'

as you were.

(or not)

I'm aware of the quote function. I'm not making some kind of statement.

I just like the way I do things.

If others don't like the way I do things, what I have to say, or the way I say it: they can go away.

Seems pretty damned simple to me.

monster · 10-01-2009, 11:59 AM

to me to. no offence was intended.

henry quirk · 10-01-2009, 12:03 PM

Same here: you asked an honest question; made an honest point.

I did the same, so, peace, monster, peace...HA!

ok lets see ...

1) I initially found you intriguing. That lasted till you were repeatedly asked for supporting info, and/or clarifications and you repeatedly couldn't or wouldn't.

2) Your opinion of me is meaningless. You don't know me nor anything about me.

3) At this point, I'll take the "I don't like you" option and move on for now.

4) Perhaps another time/place... stranger things have happened. Its too bad, you came highly recommended.

5) Then again, after finding out your were/are somehow related to PD ... I should have known better than to bother.

Fuck you. See how clear that is.

That is crystal clear Griff - making your post not just readable, but damned enjoyable.

Likewise, I'm sure...

This morning I slept past the usual time I get up. I woke to my cat. He would gently tap my cheek once with his paw then sit there staring at me. I would barely open one eye and doze back off then he would gently tap my cheek once again. I am not sure how many taps it took for me to awaken fully but I remember three and it looked as though he had been sitting there for awhile just methodically tapping my cheek in a sneaky..'it wasn't me kind of way'.

I know he was hungry as usual but I thought it was quite the use of subterfuge for an animal. It was nothing less than sneaky. How did he come up with that if it's all about instinct? He has never done that before.

henry quirk · 10-02-2009, 01:44 PM

The cat was hungry, you are its source of food, you overslept (I presume past its normal feeding time), it wanted food, it went to the source.

Don't underestimate the complexity of the animal or downplay the intricacies of instinct. I don't. I also don't mistake instinct and training for 'self', or person-hood.

Your animal can learn, can adapt, is relatively intelligent, but it doesn't self-reflect, has no consciousness of self, isn't an 'I'.

Your cat didn't say to itself, 'gee, I'm hungry...Sky is dragging ass this morning...I best go and rouse her'.

Instead: the animal is hungry...habit and routine say food should be in place...it's not...you are the source of food...cat goes to the source of food...cat taps you on the face, not to rouse you, but to get food.

Seems to me a perfectly reasonable chain of events having nothing to with understanding, or 'I'ness.

hehehe

See you can do animal talk.

He has such a Garfield face so I got a chuckle out of your animal ad lib.

Even while negating the likelihood there is that part of you that went so far as to imagine what the cat might say and that image is the one I like best.

Plus it makes life more fun.
