In that case, I'd say that Theorism exists in theory but not in practice. :P

Does Theorisism exist? Theorisism as in: life based on the idea that everything is a theory and the data is the sum of all of our senses throughout life; The idea that the future will be based on occurrences in the past is pseudo A.I. in retrospect. Anyway, to quote myself: "It's a generalization of all... under an anylitical pretense."

UPDATE:Makes me sound like a stoner... :P

why is it (I've thought this many times) that news only reports people doing stupid things or people just generally fucking up? I guess it's just anomalies in the norm, but I rarely see any "news" that is positive. It's not anything but our stage in our own depraved social evolution. I'm out again.

Sorry, posting me no good at; often lazy is the way I am. Posting is the life that is not mine. Myself fell upon quote I like, Pat reminds me: "Because they're stupid... that's why everyone does everything!" -Homer Simpson. Picturetubes interacted with myself are more than persons. Brother not older of mine in custody of state is. Stupid, tha's why. like a dream or cg cinematic life is to me when I observe. "what's with airline food?"-pat "What's with hospital food?"-Krusty the Clown. Cheeselog buttocks! Oh yeah, "fuck" is a noun sumtymes. Out now am I.

So I haven't blogged in a while. I've been thinking about this girl--the one I mentioned earlier. I've stepped up from the usual no effort to what seems to me to be more than enough. Maybe she's not doing her part for some reason or another, or perhaps my idea of aggressive isn't up to par. I call, she usually doesn't answer or doesn't return my voicemails but is still extra nice and flirtatious at work. Although I did mention an ex-girlfriend who went to the same highschool (oh yeah she's still in highschool) and apparently she recognized the name because she asked when I had graduated. I hope that didn't make me seem too old for her. I want to do my best to arrange our meeting, but her hesitance makes me wonder if she's even interested. I want to come of as semi-aggressive but not like a stalker. I guess I haven't really talked to her straightforward about it but all the signs (that she's interested) are there. I smell onion bagels and want one.

This is a little something I wrote while I was bored at work. It stemmed from a drawing I sketched out.
Fujin was a hunter by birth but a warrior by necessity. The tribe he associated with consisted of around forty to fifty men, women, and children at any one time. A large tribe in comparison to the average but they still maintained a commonality that could only be found in a family. He sipped his tea, momentarily revealing a hardened cold face beneath his well worn sand mask (the traditional headwear of the felas people). This empty shell of a man seemed to barely support the plethora of emotion hidden deep inside his irridescent eyes. Their tribe had always managed to pull through when things got their worst, but the past few days, the likes of which he had never seen, were wrought with an unnerving anxiety, bouts of fear and rage, and in the end a sense of clarity and one-ness, the kind that would take their wisest sage a lifetime to achieve.

As a man in a patriarchal tribe Fujin had been trained to use the spear-shot, a two handed spear weapon with a knuckle-guarded handle at one end concealing a trigger. The spear-shot had been a traditional weapon for the felas tribe since the technology had been available. All of these had elaborate shimmering blades (unique to each user) engraved with scenes of monumental past victories. Slightly behind the kora or the main stabbing blade on each spear-shot was located a chamber connected to a channel that ran nearly a quarter of the way down its solid staff-like handle, which when activated by the aforementioned trigger would send pulsing concusive blasts tumbling out along the underside of the kora into its intended target.

It was a practical design built for its purpose. Felas hunting parties pursued massive crustacian-like creatures, slightly resembling trilobites, that roamed the unsettled dunes. Since these creatures, folt as they were called by the felas, had a hardened shell-like exoskeleton the kora was used to initially puncture this living armor and the blasts tore apart the gooey innards. The folt were a staple food of the felas tribe and so the methods employed were highly specialized, even when fighting these fierce beasts the felas hadn't lost a man in decades.

Fujin had developed by himself into one of the strongest and most fierce hunters for his age. When the group rallied, a young Fujin regularly found himself at the front if not leading the pack- letting his youthful eagerness shine through. But now that sense of youth had left him. Although still leading, he found himself more cautious and reserved, precise and deliberate with every movement. A seasoned pro.

The sun rose just like any other day. Beams of light sliced through clouds of sand illuminating them, then passed into the small windows in the mud shelters of the felas signaling the begining of a new day. At hearing the rustling of moving bodies Fujin rolled over as if he didn't acknowledge the new days arrival. Today would be a day he would not soon forget. He slowly tilted his head, then neck, and finally torso. Reaching for a cup of water nearby he moved with a sort of athletic soreness. Fujin in his undergarments rose toward the door with sleepy uncoordinated steps.

One hand holding a cup, the other bracing him in the doorway Fujin peered around the tapestry that had covered the entry. The desert was starting to cool and was once again ripe for the picking. A dusty wisp spiraled up and met his face. Fujin twitched as if the warm breeze had told him a secret. If the desert could've told him what awaited him this fateful day it would have. Fujin idled over to a simple wooden table where his clothes and armor sat and looked over them with tired eyes.

Emerging from his igloo shaped dwelling, Fujin wore nearly white garb beneath a breastplate forged from folt shell inlayed with bits of metal. Descending from the shoulder plates swooped a long cape in the same hue as the desert itself. His headwear consisted of a long sash with a concave oval of tough leather and a jeweled clasp at one end. This was not so much for protection in battle but to keep sand and sun from his eyes. The clasp bore a dark murky gemstone, Fujin's family seal surrounding it.

This is my life there are many others like it but this one is mine... yesterday I went to the mall and hit up the clearance rack for some new threads. I decided to wear them to a party/barbeque. I think subconsiously I see clean clothes as a blank canvas. I got home safe, but when I woke and went to work, while changing I noticed blood on my new shirt. Now grass stains I might expect, seeing that I was wrestled to the ground for no apparent reason. I don't usually "black out" I remember paul was running around nekked, and playing a game of twister (both completely seperate incidents mind you) but I don't have any clue where that blood came from. Upon further examination I determined I had no new wounds so the blood wasn't mine. It doesn't really bother me except that I've heard blood stains are difficult to remove and I wanna look sharp when I go out with that girl. That's why I got the clothes in the first place. Oh well, I guess it coulda turned out worse. I got moderately drunk and to my knowledge did not make an ass of myself so can't really complain. Oh yeah!

So like everything else in my life I've been slacking on my blog. So nothing new really. let's see, I talked to a girl at my work to see if she could hook me up with her friend(a real cutie). I called her and she told me that her friend wasn't seeing anyone and told me to call her back the next day. I did with no results, I got her voicemail. So I was little disappointed being that I wanted to do something on one of my days off. Oh well. Talked to her today on her way to lunch she said she had received the message but was drunk and didn't realize whether it was a dream or not. funny stuff. Anyway I think this might be what I need to mix things up a bit. Although I'm kinda hesitant because I've never dated anyone younger than myself and from what I know she's a good bit younger than me. I'll deal. I'm tired again, slightly hungover and still have that nauseated after drinking all night feeling. Trying to satiate myself with ice water and cigarettes knowing full well that if I tried to eat I probably couldn't stomach it. So I don't want to set my hopes too high in this situation (it's not that I think she's outta my league) but this whole interacting with the females is titillating (pun intended). Been playing a lot of guitar lately spawned mostly by my intense boredom at work. I can't complain though getting $7.20 an hr. to read my book and play guitar ain't bad. A guy walking by just compared me to Elvis, I think.

I'm tired. I got a decent amount of sleep. I really didn't drink that much. I realized after rereading my last post it was kinda depressing. Thats all good and well but that's not why I'm here. I read all these magazines about videogames and it urks me to see so many copycat/sequel games, and how they all fit a profile(whether brawler, fps, rpg, sim...) I'd like to think that my untrained mind can come up with something creative and original. Epw and I were talking about a genre breaker that seemed to border on the, no wait it would reside within the depths of insanity. having the character partake in a multitude of patchworked elements proven effective time and time again. Using these elements to give the player a false sense of familiarity. And from there utterly desroying their hold on what they think is reality.
a game wherein the objectives are not neccesarily clear (to a point), its format (gameplay-wise) would be constantly changing, continuity would have no place be it your character or its environments, levels would be randomly generated (of course), common laws of physics woul not apply or would be a constant variant, basic ideas of cause and effect would generate unexpected sometimes nonsensical results.

this gives me an idea!

My life. I feel like the giant boulder rolling back and forth between two hills. Everytime I manage a glimpse of greatness or noteworthy achievement I fall back into old patterns, losing my momentum and rolling back down towards the depths of mediocracy. In a rut... Repetitive and static in its miraged state of motion. I don't know if it's life as a whole or a certain element that seems to be eating away at me, draining my very lifeforce. I am the master of my own destiny... or at least I think so. Add something new and interesting to stir it all up. Without the proper motivation this idea is benign and utterly useless. although this[blogging] is new it hasn't been all that interesting so far (but that's really up to me isn't it?) So I need some inspiration I figure, and this is where I've turned- or been turned, all depending. Feedback?
