Date: February 16th, 2017 11:54 AM Author: motley theater "how would you explain it to outsiders" was less a question of "are they aware of of Werner Herzog?" and more a question of "could they comprehend why we would think it's hilarious to imagine Werner Herzog saying 'On Thursday, they were sexualizing their printers.'?"

Date: February 16th, 2017 12:14 PM Author: exciting buff black woman jap Websites like this foster, by their very structure, memes and mashups like the one you describe.
These new combinations are the very essence of creativity! - two thought structures, built and shaped by reality, mashed together and then chiseled into a new thing by man's critical faculties, as a lapidary works a stone.
And such creativity is the essence of the self! For we are birthed again and again in the recognition of what we have observed and created - including the observation of others observing us. I can say truly that a part of me rests with all of you here on xo - we jointly create this part of reality.
***
It is difficult to describe to outsiders the forms we recognize here, for they have not been acculturated to the xo way. So too you lose a part of yourself when you move away from home, or lose touch with an old friend, or your buddy dies. Worse, the more sharply you ink a self, the steeper the hill those around you must climb to enjoy your company.
We have proceeded, in short, from alienation simpliciter, to the ever-deepening alienation of mutually impenetrable pockets of finely articulated sub-communities.
What is needed is a higher-order lingua franca, a method of relating one community, its memes customs and requisite knowledge, to the next. A community of communities, and a shortest-distance path to onboard those who do not get the joke.
Such is true "integration" - how do we get diverse communities to accommodate such that they become self-similar? Yet integration today is more akin to "how can we destroy the dominant group so that we can take power."
Traditionally, group integration has been motivated by working against a common enemy - for example, the Robbers Cave experiment. Maybe Alan Moore is right - humanity needs an external, existential threat to get them to double slip knot all these hanging communities. Maybe I'll give it to them. |

I hear brainless 'some college' millenials in coffee shops talking about him. There are several comedians and podcasts that have Herzog bits or running jokes. This Paul F. Thompkins guys does a well known impersonation. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3528006&forum_id=2...id.#32704114) |
