I doubt I'm depressed; just every now and then, I see the way the world is unfolding as it is and all the viscous tragedies it entails. I can't help but be affected. It's also very funny; and I can see the humor in the most screwed up things.
You don't think the Australian national identity of sucking down beers at the pub while you direct your concern to thug rapists grabbing each others asses and punching each other in the face is a little sickening? Watching Paul Gallen win the Grand Final this year made me sick.
That quote is from the book - not the movie.
Don't get me wrong, I think the adaptation was done well, but the book is significantly more insightful and deep; not to mention considerably more graphic with it's violence - for what that's worth.
I'll make it my business to watch K-Pax. Thanks.
The West is screwed and there's no real way out of it for us.
From American Psycho:
"I make no comment, lost in my own private maze thinking about other things: warrants, stock offerings, ESOPs, LBOs, IPOs, finances, refinances, debentures, converts, proxy statements, 8-Ks, 10-Qs, zero...
I totally agree.
The scary part is that I don't know how long I will continue to agree - everything in the universe being transient, blah.
I had a similar cathartic moment/breakdown nearly exactly a year ago; I feel like I'm seeing everything for what it really is and is abominable. And I've...
You know, it's actually funny that you posted this (whether in jest or not) - because as I was writing this post, I was actually anticipating that someone along the way would make that exact comment verbatim.
Pretty wild that it was the first response.

Just watched a powerful vid called Happy or some **** about the pursuit of happiness worldwide.
The West is seriously ****ed up. We're toxic. We're horrible people to everyone including and especially ourselves.
It explored Japan - one of the least happy places in...
I can't be bothered to do any research on my own, so can somebody direct me to any evidence that Mohammad married and had sex with an eight year old girl? Preferably a passage from the Qur'an?
I've heard that a lot from people.
Yeah, sadly I think this is probably going to be a too little, too late move right at the buzzer by Obama's admin before Trump's staff begins to wreak some havoc. Trump's appointments so far are really troubling when considering the effect they'll have on the environment.
No, it's more so to do with the fact that you've obviously exercised a clear double standard, something that Thanda is doing a much better job at making a case for than me.
And, sheesh, if a person's posts really do "go to the core of someone's personality," as you said, you seem to be a person...
This, I do disagree with profusely.
An account on an internet forum can accommodate various angles and methods which can be used to derive information, facilitate/construct ideas and stimulate discussion with the sole purpose of an individual doing little more than honing their own opinions...
Not really. And Thanda's essentially summed up the irony I alluded to in my initial post here: it boils down to the consistency of our views and opinions expressed.
It's an issue that is inherently binary: either it's okay to state one's preferences, values and opinions or it's completely not...
I'm not disputing that, but to imply that it exceeds the online community and reflects a poster's deeper character and personality is an obnoxious thing to suggest.
