Agenda 001 [text]

Mar 23, 2011 22:20

The City, huh? A name like that tells you one of two things. The first is obvious, a lack of imagination. The second is a little more telling.

I'm talking about Ego. The idea that this is THE City, the one by which all others should be judged, the one they should aspire to. Now don't get me wrong, New York is fine for what it is, whatever you call ( Read more... )

That's fine, but it becomes a completely different city at that point. No relation to the previous one other than location.

What, so the tar pits are still around? Take care of things the way they did, and the only things left are the ones that don't really matter.

[ wow for a second he thought David was in the city. :| ]

Speaking from experience?

text hells4children March 24 2011, 03:06:44 UTC

Experience enough. Maybe you know a thing or two yourself?

permavoice /lazy unhands March 24 2011, 03:13:12 UTC

Tuh. Maybe.

[ in other words, non he doesn't care. :( ]

"Maybe" means you think you've got something.

Let's hear it.

All the troubles in the world?

I don't know about all of them, but I agree with the sentiment.

text hells4children March 24 2011, 03:21:49 UTC

It may take a slightly different tack once in a while, but I think that's usually the underlying source.

text timejumps March 24 2011, 04:04:52 UTC

Greed is a fairly large source as well. Ignorance, though at times that ties in with your theory as well. Apathy, the greatest aid to every wrongdoing. And then you have natural disasters, something which people aren't at fault with.

text hells4children March 24 2011, 04:28:16 UTC

Greed stems from the idea that you should have something instead of anyone else, I wouldn't say it's wholly unrelated. And apathy usually means you're with the majority party already, most who aren't don't have it as an option.

Natural disasters are something else entirely.

Porter does seem to bring over a lot more people from the East Coast.

permatext hells4children March 24 2011, 03:36:27 UTC

Guess it just likes making the rest of us stick out.

meowminx March 24 2011, 04:01:42 UTC

Does sound like her sense of humor.

hells4children March 24 2011, 04:37:13 UTC

I'm still figuring all that out, but seems likely.

I skipped over all of that stupid mumbo jumbo. You're right about the lack of imagination though.

text hells4children March 24 2011, 03:37:42 UTC

I think that may just be the definition of irony.

Voice foreverrr elecdouble March 24 2011, 04:03:23 UTC

Huh. Why?

Don't even have the imagination to pay attention. Lotta things slip through your fingers that way.
