Trip out over things? Anyone with me?

@splashartist,

Hey man, to start things off, I just want to say it’s good to hear that you didn’t let their laughter get you down.

Anyway

I wouldn’t exactly say that’s “party conversation” but more of a stoner-circle topic. People at parties basically want to talk about stuff that you’d want to drink to: things to celebrate, crazy stories, stuff that makes you feel good and happy to be alive. Alcohol allows you to let go of your hangups and just be real with yourself for a few hours. The normal social rules are put on hold for a while. I know you didn’t ask for my advice but I’d figure I’d share, since I’ve wondered similar things before. Plus, I’m on my second tall coffee.

Normal stuff that trips me up?
How about how some people feel it’s necessary to wreck others to bolster themselves?
And how people are generally rewarded for that kind of behavior?
Why everything that people want is way off in the distance, when what they need is right in front of them?
Why are we even here at all? Are we a cosmic comedy? A drama in deep space? Are we a masterpiece or a byproduct of statistics?
What is the meaning of it all?
Why are we so good at hiding our fear?
Why can’t I quit cigarettes, even after they killed my aunt?
Why are humans so profoundly symbolic?
Why is science so confident in its explanations, when it doesn’t give true answers?
And lastly, who the hell is going to answer my questions?!

Oh hey more coffee…

Yes! And this is why farts will always be funny!

To whoever mentioned our love of boxes; I remember a comedian talking about the madness that is the butter dish.

We build a box to live in to escape the cold
Then we build a cold box to put in the warm box because we need cold things
Then we build warm box in the cold box in the warm box just for butter!

But yes, I love this kind of talk. I know it isn’t party talk so I, also, try to keep it to myself but none of it really makes sense. When you get down to asking why the most univerally accepted facts of life are the way they are instead of being another way…you’re on a lifelong quest for truth. Now you’ve gone and done it! ;P
