  • Incomprehensibility. I'll assume it's the drugs and not you.

    • :-) Yes, of course it is... for you people, simplicity and the obvious are very difficult to comprehend. You don't observe what you see, you embellish to suit your tastes.

      "So oft in theologic wars,
              The disputants, I ween,
      Rail on in utter ignorance
              Of what each other mean,
      And prate about an Elephant
              Not one of them has seen!

      • You didn't explain how my interpretations were wrong, let alone give reason to believe that zealotry is clouding my view.

        And unless you're a simpleton, I'd drop the desire to think of things in life as simple. Reality is complex.

        • There's nothing to explain. You're just clowning around, repeating very old material, I might add.

          Reality is complex.

          More empty meaningless gibberish, from a simple reactionary.

  • Sometimes it's not "just a matter of perspective", I guess.
