I have a few questions for the collective and the universe as a whole:

1) Why do most people think that we are closer to ascertaining all the knowledge available to us?
I dont know why this pisses me off so much, but it does. Knowlege is not something that can be quantified as in we have 80% of all possible knowledge. That's absolute crap. Knowlege is infinite. Humanity is finite. There is no possible way we can ever reach anywhere near perfect knowledge because infinity is inaccessible you retard. If you subtract 1,000,000 from an infinite quantity, guess what, you still have an infinite quantity. That is why we aren't close to total knowledge, and we never will be. The fundamental assumption of our generation is that we (we = people of the 2nd of the 20th century) have very few mistakes in our knowledge of the universe and all things contained within the universe. This is, of course, hideously wrong and a great example of modern hubris. We are no less ignorant than the ancient Mesopotamians who thought that the world ended at the Jordan River. We just find better and more intresting ways of being ignorant. Conclusion: I have no doubts that 250 years from now students everywhere will be rolling their eyes when they think of the primitive mind of generation babyboom-y.

2) Why do people who get drunk/high expect my sympathy?
What the fuck man? It's your problem. You know that's what happens. Fuck, you wanted it to happen. That's probably why you mixed drinks or knowingly drank too much. 'Ahhhh duuude I wanna get soooo fucked up'.... Well man you are, how's it feel dumb ass? A hangover is the result of 'being soooo fucked up'. So you can't really complain can you. But most of all you can't complain to me. I wouldn't complain to you. Deal with it, biotch. You can't expect me to justify any of your actions when you were drunk because you choose to get drunk. You choose this path. So dealing with it and stop wasting my minutes.
