    I don't misunderstand anything, Pekka. I think I rule. But I've only recently come to realize that I always think I rule because of comments made by my sexy philosopher friend. Before that, I sometimes thought I thought I sucked.

            Do I have to choose? I don't think I suck, but I have no reason to say I rule either, I think. Ming, OTOH, rules.

                I think I rule, obviously .

                I could scarcely do what I do if I didn't.

                My view IS also realistic!

                Most people have a thing called "false humility" where they refuse to acknowledge what they are good at. A few people don't have this, or learn not to have it. I had to learn not to have it, incidentally.

                Real humility is just acknowledging that you're not better than, not worse than, not the same as other people. You're going to be good at some things and bad at others, why not just acknowledge that?

                    Because doing so means you're forced to abandon the idea that everything can be easily classified and categorized. Humans have trouble with this concept.

                      I know I rule.

                      I'm pretty sure I rule more than 99% of teh world's population does.

                        Being slightly Hypochondriac sucks...its a weakness of the mind imo...But I cant control it.

                        Bipolar cant be controlled either, like sucking at sports. Either you have it or dont. Ugly people, fat people might think they suck...I would'nt agree, but its all in perception.

                            Based on a wide variety of criteria - intelligence, looks, wit, aesthetic sensibilities, cultural experiences, physical characteristics, athletic skills, professional achievements, philosophical principles, etc.

                            Also humility - I readily accept that I'm not TEH ruler in all of those categories, just that teh aggregation, according to teh appropriate weighting, of my relative rulerness in each of them is such that I am among humanity's elite.

                              Go see it. It was a great movie. I rarely like a movie this much, especially new hollywood flicks, but this one rocked
                              I'll get around to it when I get around to it. At the moment, I'd rather watch a bunch of other things in my queue.

                              Besides, for as "good" as it might be, the "documentary" aspect is somewhat suspect.

                              I decided to see “What The (Bleep) Do We Know!?” (sic!). I had avoided this film, as it looked like what Murray Gell-Mann calls quantum flapdoodle - distortions of quantum physics to support a mystical viewpoint. But the “what the...
