Thanks, Captain Obvious.

its only obvious because i've expressed this so simply


-- Posted by Catacomb at 3:39 am on Nov. 16, 2008

also people who use drugs romanticize the use so they cant see it


-- Posted by sykexl at 3:58 am on Nov. 16, 2008

I'd disagree. Drugs make people quite interesting. Oh, we are talking semantics aren't we?

my topic is about how boring people dont become interesting because of drug use
and interesting people dont become boring because of drug use alone

And I said they do. Boring people do become interesting because of drug use and interesting people do become boring. Always? Is it a guarantee? Nope, it happens though. Sorry you are having trouble understanding me.

If you need further clarification feel free to send me a message.

i dont need you to clarify your point i'd like to convince you out of it but i doubt thats possible you dont really see what im getting at here

which is disturbing really, the concept isnt hard to grasp

No, you simply can't accept the fact that I disagree. I get what you are saying. Drugs are inanimate objects and therefor it is the person that changes and as such it is the persons choice to change. Drugs aren't good or evil but people may make good or evil decisions while on drugs or in the pursuit of drugs. Going further into that train of thought, drugs can not make you boring nor can they make you more interesting. You may be more boring then you were before you started using drugs, you may not be. It doesn't matter as it isn't the drugs; It is purely you. My English teacher would be quite proud of my prowess in the area of logical fallacies, no?

Is this not what you are saying? If it isn't then you are completely right, I do not understand what the concept is you are trying so desperately to convince me of.

If this is indeed what you are saying perhaps it's time to put the crack pipe down and comeback to reality...I'm not arguing with you. Sorry I gave you the impression by voicing my opinions. Honestly.


-- Posted by Catacomb at 4:39 pm on Nov. 16, 2008

its totally within me to accept your disagreement, i remain unconvinced of whatever it is you're trying to say

and this seems to be something like: "if a boring person tripped out they'd be interesting, because they'd be talking about how a polar bear had tea with them this evening"

which is dumb. really.


-- Posted by MushroomSatsujin at 5:19 pm on Nov. 16, 2008

I disagree, but whatever

That is dumb. That is also not what I've been saying.  

Although, I will say that now. If a person who was perceived to be boring by all suddenly started talking about polar bears drinking tea with them then yea, I'd say they are undeniably interesting and would be forced to change my mind. More interesting then, say, Gandhi? Uh, no.

To try and put it another way, people aren't purely interesting or purely non-interesting. I really don't see how anyone could possibly think that but apparently you do so obviously you are going to remain unconvinced of anything I say on the matter. There's probably some error in logic somewhere in my train of thought but I'm beyond caring, the end result is the same.
 
I suppose even that would be inaccurate as there's really no way you can remain unconvinced if you can't even understand what I'm saying but I really don't feel like voicing my opinions on yet another subject to someone who can't even grasp something so simple as this.

Apparently someone gets what I'm saying. But then again, perhaps not. It's easier to disagree right away then to try and understand first.


-- Posted by UXnIHAOnUXbmUXn at 6:29 pm on Nov. 16, 2008

actually i think drugs make people pretty interesting.

otherwise would anybody watch COPS?

No, I get what you're saying, surprisingly enough. But I was referring to the OP

Uh, you have really low standards for what makes a person interesting, but i wont argue that, i'll stick to my point

my point is that all the interesting or boring that there is to you exists inside you, doing drugs will not add or subtract to it

i dont see why anyone would think so, drugs might help you discover concealed 'interesting' things about you, but you're equating discovery with creation


-- Posted by live it up at 12:07 am on Nov. 17, 2008

it is possible to be boring to others while on drugs... im sure when i take a bunch of xanax and smoke a fat blunt me laying on the couch not talkin is really fun for the ppl im with...

yes it is, but your boring qualities are only getting enhanced by drugs, not being created by them


-- Posted by live it up at 12:16 am on Nov. 17, 2008

yes but those boring qualities being enhanced is me becoming more boring than i would normally be... this is too confusing i cant think this deeply gunna go smoke a bowl lol


-- Posted by Catacomb at 12:29 am on Nov. 17, 2008

your potential to bore people is always the same, how much of it you experience or allow people to experience depends on what you are doing, who you are around, and what you are on if anything


-- Posted by Pvt Pyle at 10:44 am on Nov. 17, 2008

It depends on who you hang out with and what drug they're doing. People that get drunk who are perscribed anti-depressant medication are the most exciting. You never know what's going to unfold by the end of the day with them, but you know from the second they start drinking that you're going to witness some type of insane behavior. And at some point during this time, it always goes from excitement and thrill and thinking "WOW this is fucking crazy" to frightening and terror and wild n' crazy instantly turns into "This isn't fun anymore. What were we thinking when we stuck around after this guy started drinking? I don't want to be here anymore."

hahaha. Its always something really ugly and bad. They get violent with close friends and family, they do something stupid and the cops get involved, then get belligerent and try to take on a police officer and get tazed, maced, or beaten. They try to kill themself, and are dead serious about it - Swallow a bottle of pills, stab themselves, or try to drink shit under the sink.......theres never a dull moment

You could say that, because there is no reasoning with you

i always find myself wanting to give in to your 'reasoning' but this never happens
i wonder why

i speak honestly


-- Posted by MushroomSatsujin at 2:32 pm on Nov. 17, 2008

I speak honestly too, but it seems you continue to argue for the sake of trying to make me, or others, mad

I got your point from the first time I read the title of this thread. I even stated it in different words to clarify this to you. I have mentioned multiple times I simply disagree and it has nothing to do with me not understanding what you are saying.

Sorry you are having such a hard time comprehending this. Well no, I'm not sorry. I actually find it rather amusing which is why I find my self coming back for more.


-- Posted by Catacomb at 11:09 pm on Nov. 17, 2008

as long as you're amused i cant be doing that badly


-- Posted by sykexl at 1:03 am on Nov. 18, 2008

I'd argue be being amused is a sign of just how badly you are doing, but why split hairs?


-- Posted by Catacomb at 1:08 am on Nov. 18, 2008

i dont think you understand what i try to be good at
