a brief moment of psychopathology

[veritas]

At the crib on lunch break.....seriously considered the emotional implications of microwavingg our cat.

[Rawn M.D.]

don't...i knew a kid in like middle school who did that...i dont recall what happened...but i assure u it was not good.

kid got thrown out of school later on for behavioral issues..dont know what amt'd of him...prolly prison or psych hospital

part of the triad u know...

[ill nik-A]

It causes balding

[~RustyGunZ~]

cats do not have souls

there would be no consequence

[namix]

welcome back sir

I could imagine a case where the emotional implications of keeping your cat exceed that of microwaving it, which would make the action less psychopathic than it is logical.

I am more of a dog person though.

[Rawn M.D.]

yeah nik but it depends on time in...im sure sever dehydration comes pretty quick...n then cooked insides...

but long term implications to burst of direct microwave --> cancer 4 sure

[Rawn M.D.]

VERITAS compromise with ur cognitive dissonance and just cut off its whiskers...thats pretty bad to do to a cat.

[Philly]

Remember when Strikta made cat shit cupcakes for his neighbor?

I'd imagine the cleanup would be a little jarring if you're not used to it

[Joe Metts]

I feel like you can say anything and rawn has either done it or knows someone.

Like yo my friend got on jeopardy with hard work.

Then rawns like yo i knew this puerto rican chick gloria that got on jeopardy cause her boyfriend billy knew the lot guy and hit a full court hook shot.

Then im like yo that's white men men can't jump.

Then rawns like yea i know them niggas cause i used to dabble in high stakes basketball gambling. Me and my uncles the stoogies.

Then im like yo thats just a movie.

Then rawns like why i gotta lie. I never lied.

[Rawn M.D.]

J. Metts u on the bandwagon as well now

Lol, you just get desensitized to it after a while. Bags is our only hope. And now you, sir.

yo... that movie was based on true story.. i think rawn managed duck and king after he got his money from billy.. read the book

[Rawn M.D.]

u guys r totally right, and then after the bball game we all robbed the money train.

[veritas]

Rawn....make it a joke laugh at yourself.

[Dominate]

I read about some art gallery exhibition a while ago that was just a couple of goldfish in a blender with the blender plugged in at the wall

[Rawn M.D.]

its funny at what ppl call 'art' and then what people call the 'absurd'

a while back there was a showcase of like poopoo picasso's like dood srsly painted with his sht - it was an art showcase

then like 2 yrs ago there was 'the human body' exhibit that was like mumified human remains and embalmbed ppl n organs in alabaster...and ppl were like boycotting it sayin it was dehumanizing, and all this other sht...i mean the remains were chineese ppl pretty much, that the gov't killed off for crimes against gov't and that were then later utilized for the exhibit (if i rmbr correctly)... i understand boycotting the origin of the bodies and stuff...but that was more 'art' to me then sht paintings which are way more 'absurd'...but the general public saw it as the reverse

the first i think was in nyc early 2000 or late 90's n the latter toured the country (maybe even the world - not sure) like somewhere between 2-4 yrs ago...i saw the latter at Los Olas, ft lauderdale...never saw the former, and happy i didn't.
Chyeahhh!!! YDK trap super pimp trillionaire Split Eight Sharp Nine VERITAS oats Vulgar

[Dominate]

rofl I remember reading about the shit paintings... ppl really called that art hahahahahahahahahaha

[Rawn M.D.]

i kno right...i was bout to tag u lol...but srsly smh

[oats]

That's the nature of art I guess. I got in an argument with my ceramics teacher once cuz he took us to a museum and in it was a painting called three lines. Guess what it was. Three lines "painted" on a canvas. Sold for half a mil. He tried to tell me that I didn't understand the context of it, how the minamilist movement changed art etc etc, but still I call bullshit. Same with plenty of the shit I saw in the NYC MOMA. There were pieces of art where a guy just spray painted a mound on the floor. Shit like that annoys me

[Rawn M.D.]

right...sht like that take no skill and should NOT be rewarded with praise imo

[Dominate]

rofl how you gonna argue a case for 3 lines painted on a canvas

I would've just painted a whole canvas in green or something and then called him on his hypocrisy if he didn't give me an A

[Dominate]

And it's a huge insult to real artists, with actual skill, that make things with some actual substance to them...

[Vulgar]

The minimalist movement can be truly puzzling. I've found myself hating those exhibits at museums too.

[veritas]

here is an art exhibit...it is called "my dick...now swallow" that will be 100 g's please.

[Dominate]

You're better than that Veritas.

Minimalism in music is the same way. Theres some cool shit in that vein, but there's also a piece where 2 notes are held for 15 minutes.

At the same time I think music can function as a lot more than just art, and looking at it just as art isnt something I'm used to anymore, so when I see the really bullshit things I can get kinda critical

[veritas]

Ok dom....how 200 g's???

[oats]

I like a lot of minamilist writers - Raymond Carver is easily top three favorite fiction writers - but yeah the visual arts is lost on me, no matter how hard I try to understand/respect it. It's even more maddening when I hear those same snobs talk down on shit like rap and tattoo/graffiti artists as not having artistic merit. Just a joke.

[uh-oh]

yo veritas.

this is an A+thread. the start at least. i didnt read anything else.

i seriously think through doing weird shit all the time. or crazy violent shit. and then i play it out in my head like if i club this dude with this, adrenalines gonna flood. im gonna have to flee. map out everything in my head like a day dream while talking to someone like yea. no way? sure man. agreed.

or just driving into oncoming traffic.

its always the wtf look on the victims faces that wigs me out.

maybe psychopaths are just people that can't imagine what someones face looks like when you've WRONGED THEM. so they play it out in there head and nothing seems out of place so they do it.

i think i just revolutionized psychology for you yo

[Sharp]

Don't get me wrong, there's some great minimalist music too, but there's plenty of bullshit that abuses the principles behind it and is given artistic merit

But yeah how did we get here from microwaving cats?

[Rawn M.D.]

dom's op post on this page

[veritas]

What if mental illness is just a myth.

Someone name one thing that is actually unnatural?

[Rawn M.D.]

i think some aspects of mental illness are cop outs but some are legit

and unatural? well any chemical imbalance thats self induced and not congentital would be unnatural

[veritas]

I meant in terms of subsequent behavior

[Masaii]

There are more mental illness' today then there has been throughout history.

Half of them are a load of shit.

"You suffer from separation anxiety, take these pills and we can talk about it". Reality = Dad left when you were 9, your dad happened to be a bad parent like many others out there. Mum still provided and had a good upbringing. Get over it fagg0t.

[Rawn M.D.]

seperation anxiety takin to its extreme can be a form a PTSD...so thats a bad example

add adhd all attention things r bs...75% of depression n bi-polar i feel are bs

i feel they're are legit things...but simply overly diagnosed to benefit the psych n big pharma

[veritas]

Tell me one behavior that a crazy person does that is un natural?

[Masaii]

yeah I chose a bad example. But you still get my point.

Okay what about Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) aka chronic fatigue? I seriously laugh at people who tell me they have that. Worst cop out of all time.

[Masaii]

Tell me one behavior that a crazy person does that is un natural?

Talks in tongues. Suppose it is a natural function but it isnt 'normal' behaviour. But then again whos to say what is normal? Oh shit Veritas opened pandoras box here.

[Rawn M.D.]

eat their own feces...hear voices..self mutilate...i mean these aren't 'unnatural' per say, but def illogical and self harming

[Meth]

I think depression and like masaii said chronic fatigue is a load

[veritas]

Monkeys throw their feces dogs eat their feces...eagles smash their beaks against rocks till it is a stump....

Gtg. Will revisit this tom to see if yall catch what I am getting at...

I may he on tue verge of something big....

[Rawn M.D.]

yea but those arent normal behaviors...a dog that eats shit...is said to be 'lame' or 'dumb'
hawks r the only ones and thats for utility of beak..and i dont think their pain sensation is the same as say biting ones lip.

[Rawn M.D.]

but then u have spatial disorders like dislexia or total behavioral disorders like cortard syndrome...that i dont know of any animal exhibiting besides human..but it can be said this can be blamed on the complexity of our brains...and the larger % of something going wrong.

[YDK]

In a world full of crazy people a sane person seems insane.
Sane people pretending to be insane or intellectual are some of the craziest, not because they don't have a conscience but because they ignore it intentionally

[Rawn M.D.]

YDK its called the eccentricities of genius...thas what ur eluding too..also ppl with assbergers are xtremely intelligent, typically, (at least in one area) bc of the way they process info..cuz asberger is high functioning autism.

[YDK]

Yeah you know wat I'm talking bout rawn lol

[Rawn M.D.]

but ur first comment reminded me a whole lot of the premise behind 'Catch 22' lolz YDK

[YDK]

Lol never heard of it. But tbh I can't call bullshit on psychological problems, I've got a few and spent a few weeks in a mental hospital so I know shit is real

[Rawn M.D.]

it a book wrote during ww2...about that exact paradox

an insane person thinking they're sane proves their own insanity and a sane person thinking that they're insane proves that they are sane...
(thats paraphrased and simplified btw)

its an awesome book wrote by Joseph Heller...kind of a 'modern'ish classic'

hence 'catch 22'
Chyeahhh!!! VERITAS

[YDK]

Hmm that sounds cool ima have to try an find that

[zygote]

Validity of mental illness diagnosis can be difficult to establish. Rosenhan experiment is good - (a summary) http://psychrights.org/articles/rosenham.htm. Also, author called Szasz wrote on it - ("the myth of mental illness" - "the manufacture of madness" - "essays on the psychiatric dehumanization of man") unfortunately cannot find free full-text online for them. Older critiques of DSM and ICD often give arguments for mental illness as a construct (just search variations of 'DSM/ICD diagnostic validity/reliability').

[Wise Wiggles]

Conceptual sex?

[super pimp trillionaire]

mental illness as mythology AWESOME BREAKTHROUGH V! you've come a long way! now if we can cure you of this religious affliciton we'll be making some real headway.


btw goldfish in blender is FUCKING AWESOME! I wonder how often they had ta change the water?

good art must be more than some pretty shit, we already have sexy women and sunrises... Good art should make you question yourself and think about the world, imo

love the goldfish exhibit and the bodies alive thing, wanted to show my children, we americans as a whole, fear our mortality too much, western medicines monetization methods and cosmetic companies have taught us to be that way
the shit exhibit is just rude. unless it was treated in some way that it was no longer just raw shit smeared on canvas. in that case I consider it a brilliant statement.

[Split]

Conceptual sex?

Lol'D IRL

[super pimp trillionaire]

it goes back to the fuel you choose for your machine.
-impacted feces
-literally starving ourselves
-how to eat to live
americans are storing waste and living on fumes and caffeine
we are so malnourished that our emergency back ups are routinely used as primary sources

chronic fatigue is real, I question the cure


inb4 foreigners act superior, stop following America

[Rawn M.D.]

I'm pretty sure it was shit spread on a canvas lol

I dont follow America. I will say though that Australia and the UK are in part mini Americas, except we get free healthcare just for being a citizen :)

[YDK]

Id move to Australia if our government couldn't find a bullshit excuse to invade
