Yeah I do talk to myself. Though while others use their own mother language, I talk to myself in English ...
I require more information about the size of the third nipple and what colour the unicorn is, before I can give an appropiate answer.Quote:

New Question!
What do you think of democracy? does it work and do you think it's worth following?
The way of the world is to show us democratic processes to our face on the subjects that catch the medias and common persons attention while all of the real and powerful decision making is done behind closed doors and usually in the least democratic way possible. I do think that as an idea democracy is one we should strive to achiev but in reality the democracy we have in place is more like a turn based dictatorship in which some people get longer turns than others and every single choice for dictator is the same kind of shiny turd as the rest.
To put it simply, I think the form of democracy our governments use is full of shite and that real democracy will be far more difficult to achieve but could have greater and more profound effects on all our lives.

What do you think of democracy? Its a joke, Marxism is the only way forward, but people look down on it as they cannot be there greedy selves. Also why are you showing off my 3rd nipple?
Democracy is mostly about voting for what you're told is right and wrong. A lot comes from the way you are raised, the rest of it is taught by the media etc, mostly by people we 'trust' to tell the truth.
An absolute bullshit argument can be made convincing when told by the right person, whereas a well thought argument can be considered garbage when told by the wrong person.
That said, it beats something like dictatorships, not just because they could fuck you up with crazy shit, but it's also because people want the feeling that they get a chance to influence how things are going, and hey, even those who don't vote, can at least bitch about how it doesn't matter anyway.
But yeah, democracy also allows us to punish, assuming we got more then 2 major parties, which countries such as the US and UK are lacking, so you end up voting for either someone who tells you that they are gonna fuck you, or voting for someone who tells you they won't fuck you, even though you know they will fuck you.
I love how this thread has over 2000 views and yet only 57 posts from the same handful of people. You guys are awesome, the rest of you are pussies.
New question!
How do you get to sleep at night?
I know the question seems easy but for a lot of people getting to sleep can be a real challenge and the resulting lack of sleep has a massive effect on their lives. Some find it difficult due to illness while others are struck psychologically. Personally I try to read a book before bed, for one it's just enjoyable to read, in my opinion at least, and it helps relax my mind for the hard job of dreaming. Sometimes however I find myself way to wired to sleep and I lay awake for hours simply making the attempt to fall into dreamland but the one thing I try to do every night is make sure that my monitor is off and I'm not looking at a screen of any kind for at least half an hour. I t seems to help quite a bit especially when considering blue light emanations from digital screens.
I usually watch something, I just grab my tablet, put it on my bed and just watch whatever, usually does the trick.
Of course there are times that I don't sleep that well, but it's rare. About 2 months ago I slept like shit though, my contract was ending and I had no new job, so the closer I got to end of my contract, I just got more anxious and usually slept like 6 hours max.
Hope that the wife stops snoring, pray I fall asleep
I get my jollies on, then close my eyes and its off to sleep!
So the question of technology and it's effect on society has been coming up in conversation a fair bit during the last week so I'm going to bring it up again here.
What is your opinion on technology and the efect that it has on society and the individual.
In my honest opinion I do not think that technology itself is to blame for ay changes to the individual or to society. All of those changes are braugt on by the choices people make and in this case it's the choice to disconnect from others in life because they are connected digitally i.e. facebook and social media. Kids aren't reading anymore and more and mor of them are getting bored even though they have resources and fun shit to do in their vicinity almost 24 hours a day. I don't blame technology for the negative impactats on society or the individual. I blame the choices and consequences of said choices made by society and the individual. Technology is simply a tool like any other and it is the person who wields it that decides what effect it will have on life.
Technology is something that is part of the package when a civilisation advances, and society becomes better learned. Even tho it is our choice whether or not to detached from technology, it will somehow come full circle, and affect us one way or another. I agree with Flameing, as to technology is not to be blamed, as it is something that is unavoidable.
Majority of the world is already digitalised, as in i would not be able to communicate with you guys in a forum if there's no such thing as internet. We can call our spouses and family half the world over cuz there is a thing such as a satellite, as in comparison 20 years ago i would have used a phone, 30 years ago, my parents would have used letters via air mail.
Therefore, technology for me is a thing of convenience. Utilise it efficiently to maximise our daily lives, but not abuse it as in staying as a shut in and miss out on the living.
