Oh yes and how many ways someone can purposely misspell Angel.

I think what the voices in my head tell me to think.

And the news. Often it doesn't make sense to me. I listen and sometimes wonder if I am in an alternate dimension or on the wrong planet and someone forgot to tell me the rules.




Joseff -> RE: What makes you think? (8/31/2007 5:55:23 PM)

I was thinking just today that people are oriented to one or more of 3 things, people, things, and ideas. I then began comparing the people I know to that perspective, wondering just where they would place on a chart, considering I could find a way to chart it. In the past I have come up with improved methods to perform my job, a base 12 numeric system, and some cool new armor. Sometimes I just think about tits.

People, their thoughts, their actions, their thoughts on them purposes, makes me think and wonders.




SeanPony -> RE: What makes you think? (9/1/2007 4:01:21 PM)

I am always thinking about new things to build from wood and metal.

Working on new ideas for artwork and cocktail tables to hold my drinks.

Party on!




FullCircle -> RE: What makes you think? (9/1/2007 4:04:26 PM)

Humm... me thinks you could be building other things from wood and metal for holding other things.

i am a leather artist with a very strong Irish background. So , as  love to make fun TOYS with my leather , i also love celtic knotwork and am always thinking of what i can decorate with the celtic designs.

Hah, yeah.  I guess I'm just more curious about others.  Practically everything makes me think.  Largely, I see anything, think of anything, and try to adjust the general model to be more accurate with regards to the newly presented empirical evidence.

Squares and circles, too.  I've spent the last several years writing equations for circles, trying to figure them out.  I keep hoping I'm getting nearer to a breakthrough- a shift in fundamental understanding.

Religion fascinates me.  It's.. such an utterly insane thing to participate in, yet it drives people to it.. even some bright minds, which continually confounds me.  I suppose I've accounted for it, but it still makes me wonder.

Extremes are constant points of interest; I suppose religion is merely an instance of this function.  Anything that's odd or extreme in a manner is typically worth observing as extremes can reveal otherwise unaccounted-for terms.

New life.  I started the project about sixteen months ago, and I'm coming close to the second alpha stage of the project.  I hope to gain funding towards my senior year for working models of an actual intelligence.  I'm thinking "floaters" may be the way to go since the body's relatively cheap and veristile.  Not something carbon-based life took to very quickly due to the very density and puncture issues inherient with carbon-based life, but metalic constructs will likely find flight to be a wonderful primordial ooze.

Society and its illnesses, one of which is being observed here.  Perhaps this is one of the aspects that continues to draw me to this community- not to say that this community is anymore sick than normal society, but the stark contrasts in some aspects make for good openings into thought concerning a more general context, sort of like looking for cracks in something to get a peak inside of it.

Well, I guess I'll list more later.  I'm quite obsessed with thinking, tossing and turning at nights, putting off sleep for an unwillingness to stop considering things.  In this thread, I.. I was wondering why it is that my condition strikes me as somewhat uncommon on a disturbingly regular basis.  I wonder how many share my madness?

If you'd told me sooner I could have confirmed that circles are roundish and the sqaures are very squarelike.

But how do they get along when no one's watching?  Does the circle roll over the square, or does the square poke the circle with its jagged edges?




mnottertail -> RE: What makes you think? (9/1/2007 5:09:57 PM)

a circle of x diameter is bounded by a square of x side........end of joke.

See the guy in Da Vinci's work doing the snow angel, note the circle and then the outlying bordering square, that relationship holds for all x.

Thanks

FullCircle -> RE: What makes you think? (9/1/2007 5:11:07 PM)

The square came into existence first according to popular teachings on this matter. Then the edges were carved off by god and there was the circle; erosion into perfection.

Pythagorus used to be my jail bitch when I was a more prosperous fellow.

CuriousLord -> RE: What makes you think? (9/1/2007 5:18:20 PM)

I'm.. well, working on something a bit more involved.  Trying to obsolete trignometry through an increased understanding of circles.  I'm finding contrasts with squares, which are far more simplistic to work with, are a viable method of doing such.

By the time I'm done, I hope to kill sin, cos, tan, asin, acos, atan, sec, csc, ctan, asec, acsc, actan, etc.; next, it'll be on to the hyperbolics after pi is made short work of.  This should shed more light to Fourier's work and greatly explain quantum mechanics, and even just Maxwell's, a lot more clearly.

Contemptable trignometric options.  Pathagerous would love me, at least, if I didn't misspell his name so often.

..I always knew that god was a sadistic bastard!  That poor square.. he did the same thing to it that he did to Adam's brother to make Eve...

I think about why, when I put a matching pair of socks into the washer, only one ends up in the dryer, but yet, the washer is empty.

I also wonder what my dog is thinking when she watches me undress.

I wonder whose idea it was to take leaves of the tobacco plant, dry them out, roll them up with a paper around them, light them on fire and then put the other end in their mouth and inhale.  And enjoyed it.

I wonder why, if you live between an ocean and the San Andreas Fault, well, just...why?

Hell yes! I am going to be building some crazy stuff this time around.

Now see, I thought it was the other way around....where these guys had run out of tobacco, so they tried those ones with the skinny pointy leaves, and woooooo-hoooooooooo!
