dabreegster |
Ah, that's better. |
rindolf |
perlygatekeeper: yo, yo, yo, dude! |
perlygatekeeper |
rindolf!! |
rindolf |
perlygatekeeper: what's up? |
perlygatekeeper |
hmmm |
perlygatekeeper |
not much |
perlygatekeeper |
you? |
rindolf |
perlygatekeeper: fine. Let me recall what I said to ezra. |
rindolf |
perlygatekeeper: I'm fine. Got into a few flamewars, and escaped alive to tell the tale. |
rindolf |
perlygatekeeper: worked a bit on my story "The Human Hacking Field Guide". |
rindolf |
perlygatekeeper: (which, BTW, you appear there (as your IRC nick at least) |
rindolf |
perlygatekeeper: and now working on the Computer Graphics section of my homepage. |
perlygatekeeper |
rindolf, what the hell? |
rindolf |
perlygatekeeper: excuse me? |
perlygatekeeper |
rindolf was that someone pretending to be me? |
perlygatekeeper |
I never said those things |
rindolf |
perlygatekeeper: it's a fictitious story. |
rindolf |
perlygatekeeper: relax. |
dabreegster |
perlygatekeeper: or you could be the imposter right now... or maybe just schizophrenic. |
rindolf |
dabreegster: MPDed not schizophrenic. |
rindolf |
dabreegster: schizophrenia is not Multi-Persona-Disordered. |
b0at |
perlygatekeeper: It's fan fiction from your fan! |
dabreegster |
rindolf: what's the difference? |
rindolf |
dabreegster: MPD is when there are several personalities living inside your brain. |
rindolf |
dabreegster: in schizophrenia, you have one I-ness, but hear voices, hallucinate and stuff. |
dabreegster |
rindolf: Ah. Why is it considered a disorder? MPD could be quite useful... One would have different perspectives on a subject. |
perlygatekeeper |
where's beth, she'll know it's me |
integral |
But how will we know it's beth?! |
dabreegster |
rindolf: Oh, I have MPD then, not schizophrenia. I don't hallucinate. |
dabreegster |
integral: WE DON'T! |
b0at |
I don't hallucinate, but my other personality does. |
dabreegster |
How do I know all of you exist? Am I just a figment of my own imagination? |
dabreegster |
b0at: Interesting... |
rindolf |
dabreegster: Julian Jaynes describes schizophrenia very well in his "The Origins of Consciousness during the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind book". |
integral |
nono, you're all just figments of _lilo_'s imagination |
dabreegster |
rindolf: I'll check it out |
b0at |
he wishes |
dabreegster |
integral: and you? |
perlygatekeeper |
the voices tell me if it's really beth or not |
dabreegster |
perlygatekeeper: The voices tell me everything. |
dabreegster |
Wait, I do have the Voices. Maybe I have MPD _and_ schizophrenia. |
b0at |
Ah, but the question is: do the Voices have voices? |
rindolf |
dabreegster: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Origin_of_Consciousness_in_the_Breakdown_of_the_Bicameral_Mind |
b0at |
And if so, is it your own voice? |
dabreegster |
b0at: And do the voices of the voices have voices? |
b0at |
That's just going too far. |
dkr |
don't worry, those are angels, invest in tarot cards and you will be able to understand them |
dabreegster |
b0at: and if it's not, then could it be the voice of........ integral? rindolf? or.... buu! |
b0at |
buu has other plans for our empty skulls |
dabreegster |
b0at: and if they do, then what do the voices of the voices of the voices of the Voices sound like? |
integral |
*sob* it's the cabbages. The cabbages keep telling me to do things |
Botje |
really? most of the time it's the socks that tell me stuff |
dabreegster |
integral: The lawn gnomes tell me. They're........everywhere...*sniffle* |
integral |
*blubber* the socks are worse, there's moths living in them |
dabreegster |
The lawn gnomes tell me to stay away from Life. They force me to write poetry. |
dabreegster |
integral: *whispering* are the _moths_ the Voices? or the voices of the Voices? or the voices of the voices of the Voices? |
* dabreegster |
goes back to reading |
integral |
*looks furtively around for moths* |
