swear swear swear
curse curse curse
vulgarity vulgarity vulgarity

hmm
that brings about an interesting dilemma...
is the intent equivalent to the action
when it comes to swearing?

todays has been an Megiddo of days
many thanks to Erik Durchsmeid and his most
entertaining book
without which i most certainly would have died
you see
results came out today
and NO
they arent good
haha
its funny
when i tell people i died for exams
theyre like
"yeah right, tell me how much you got lah...75? 81?"
and im like
no "56"
and they fall strangely silent
and suddenly remind me of my other successes
haha
of course
i was MOST indignant and my near-fail lit mark
and i plan to confron the marking teacher tomorrow
not to obtain marks
but for her to JUSTIFY her reasons for doing so
to hell
with
the
"RIGHT INTEPRETATION"
there is no right intepretation
only an interpretation that is well argued
and boy do i plan to argue MY interpretation out tomorrow

oh and
another thing
ive always felt that
if you MEAN something
you can argue it out
no argument can defeat the truth
so DONT say
"aiyah, dont want to DEBATE with you"
in my face
cos it simply reflects
your lack of convinction in what you believe in
if you speak with truth
then by thunder you can jolly well speak with logic
everything(with the exception of religion and emotion..and even then to a great extent)
can be rationalised
every viewpoint
every belief
every action
every thought
so next time you want to propose something
OR
tear down an idea
argue for it
or give up and go home
just
never
ever say youre right
and not say why

yes
that means you
and you
oh
you too

now that my rant in aner has been successfully completed
i shall fill myself with more of erik durschmeid's excellent new book
From Armageddon to the Fall of Rome

alai
ave caesar morturi de salutant




i have crossed the rubicon and i shall NOT steal victory
