existentialism

Camus is my favorite existentialist.

The Myth of Sysyphus is neat.

Has no one ever opened the oven with their face in the direct path of the steam/heat and really close to that direct path?

Haaaaahahahahaaaa ... you're not the only one.

I totally do that like 50% of the time I open the oven. It's a combination of being forgetful (or stoned) and being so damn eager to eat whatever the hell is in there.

I'd make a joke about that being redundant, but I've always found that weed makes me less hungry.

Except when I start eating something, I don't stop.

Fair enough. Stoned for me => my cupboard empty.

So what your saying, is while stoned your content with your state of being?




My case was paranoia over my horrible cooking, I didn't want the cheese to burn. It wasn't and ended up completely yummy. Just the right amount of sauce and too much cheese.

Yeah, more or less, although with exceptions. I hate being in cars when stoned.

Also, there's no such thing as too much cheese.

I can't be in a car when I'm anything but completely sober. It's like it's a Pavlovian at this point, if I'm drunk and even see a car I get nauseous. It was worse when I'd smoke though, then I got paranoid as well.




No there's not, which is why it was sinfully good.

Driving stoned isn't a problem as long as I'm not that stoned. Company helps too.

Drink + driving on the other hand is a big no no pour moi.

I just get claustrophobic in cars. Triply so when stoned. Still capable of operating, but generally prefer not to.

When I'm stoned I'm afraid to go to fast and think everyone is gonna hit me so I don't drive high.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one who gets paranoid while stoned.

I just get horrible motion sickness, I don't drive if I think in any way my driving might be impaired but being a passenger... bad idea.

The only time I've ever actually had troubles operating a vehicle while stoned was after a homemade bowl, we called the Monster. We threw it out after, because we were afraid of the pipe.

I think that existentialists don't deny the existence of a higher power, they choose to think that it doesn't matter, while nihilists disregard any higher power.

I thought existentialists believed that the individual is the only metaphysical power in the universe.

feel free to correct me, I've read one book by Sarte and a few Wikipedia articles and I already think I'm a genius.

I remember when I asked my biology teacher about this he said he didn't know and then began saying how evangelical Christianity is the one true viewpoint.
