To me, a genius is someone who opens up a hidden window onto the absurd universe, like Werner Reyneke, aka Philosophicus. I know his real name because I happened to stumble onto an interesting site called Useless-Knowledge.com where he his a columnist and read his article "What is Genius". I read all his other articles as well - simply the works of a rare philosophical genius! I myself have a masters degree in Philosophy and am busy working on my Phd. I have to admit that Philosophicus/Werner Reyneke is utterly original and revolutionary in his ideas. You're probably wondering how I got his real name, I mean everyone uses pseudonymns around here - well, I emailed him a compliment on his extraordinary articles on the website Useless-knowledge and he told me about this philosophy forum and also to read the posts under the name Philosophicus - am I a great sleuth or what!

What the hell??
This thread has no point.

Moving to OTF

guess the name of the website sais it all

the point in this is??? whoa u found some bozo's name congratu-****in- lations

Or that guy in the wheelchair I forget his name now he is a genius!I like him in family guy btw!LOL!JM

Jackie you sometimes just amaze me.

Stephen W. Hawking?

ROFL "guy in wheelchair" Awwww thats GOLD on a stick LOL

I wonder if she ever thinks about what she's typing, or if she just blurts it out. It's like watching someone with Keyboard Tourettes Syndrome

i do it sometimes only when im tired and i should know better to get off when im tired less sounding like a jackass

i have no idea

No Kosta, THAT is gold

But, to get to the point.... Philosophicus is a clever lad But, am I missing something here?

all the worlds genuises are in mental asylums...
they think to much and evidently go crazy and end up there
and thats where im heading soon but for different reasons...
i wonder what food they serve.

*raises hand*

I'm not in an asylum schmoll

not yet...
but if you let your mind go into a crazy obsession to discover things beyond human knowledge you may well end up there
its best not to go to far into the beyond
because you cannot be sure if you can return

Oh, what a load of old tripe If you never take those steps into what you call 'the beyond', humanity itself will suffer. I'd be willing to sacrifice my sanity for the benefit of the human race

i dont think i have any sanity left...

I really didn't ask to be a genius, and yes, it's true that half the world's geniuses end up in assylums. I profoundly fear that! I'm already taking medication for Clinical Depression, Manic Depression, Anxiety Disorder, ADHD (this one I was born with), Obsessive Complsive Disorder, Megalomania, etc. etc........I drink too much alcohol, I smoke cigarettes at the rate one is suppose to breath air, I'm addicted to Alprazolam (medically prescribed tranquiliser drug) and the rest of the time I write poems, philosophy and computer programs.

To the Beyond! I really want to reach the edge of meaning and sanity will just have to hold on. To the great f*cking beyond!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yah, I have OCD, my brother had ADHD for years.... deal

I think this should be closed 'cos it's in danger of becoming a thread that bashes a member.

*bashes Corran's member* fish

Creating a sock to bash yourself is indeed pathetic.

Closed
