JC, are you online? not sure if you're into the simpsons but
http://lifewithoutbuildings.net/2009/05/me...untainhead.html "Last night, The Simpsons finally got around to sending up The Fountainhead. Yes, Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead: the superficially architectural Objectivist manifesto so often given to incoming architecture students everywhere by their well-meaning relatives. The book that can have the unfortunate side-effect of brainwashing said first year architecture students. In typical irreverent form, the “Bible of Right Wing nutjobs” (Lisa’s words) is transposed to Maggie’s preschool, a preschool presided over by that staunch proponent of the prosaic, Ellsworth Toohey. In her defiant self-expression, Maggie Roark uses blocks, sugar cubes, and tinker toys to produce familiar structures ranging from the Taj Mahal to the Bird’s Nest. Toohey, staying true to his literary equivalent, is clearly enjoying himself in finding increasingly creative methods of destroying the block buildings, culminating in a sledgehammer redesign of Frank Gehry’s Bilbao Guggenheim (an ironic reversal of how the Simpson’s previously depicted Gehry’s “process”). Continue reading to view the full story, including Maggie’s version of Roark’s speech. UPDATE: Thanks to square for pointing out that Hulu is US only. A Youtube version of the clip has been added, but I’m not sure for how long it will stay online." |

you're crazy then
i don't really think i'm a fan of her philosophy in it's entirety. i wouldn't say i'm all about objectivism. as far as the ego though i feel it. aka this belief QUOTE Man—every man—is an end in himself, not the means to the ends of others. He must exist for his own sake, neither sacrificing himself to others nor sacrificing others to himself. The pursuit of his own rational self-interest and of his own happiness is the highest moral purpose of his life. |

i don't really believe in subscribing to just one philosophy, tbh. i think there's something to take away from objectivism and at the same time, something to take from utilitarianism, existentialism, etc etc etc. so in that sense, i don't dislike her philosophy because i disagree with her, since i find myself disagreeing with all philosophers and thinking they're a bit crazy on some level. i just hate how she's so hyped up and how freaking randroids are always trying to suffocate me with her words.
and as for her writing, i just think she's really long winded. fountainhead was way too long for it's own good. |

yo dawg, digging up old skeletons.
QUOTE i'm not a virgin. my ex cheated on his girlfriend with me... four times... in a week. i'm pretty sure i'm still in love with him. i starve myself. i've cut myself. i've burned myself. i've bruised myself. i've poisoned myself. i've poisoned other people. i've broken someone's jaw. i've broken someone's arm. i'm plotting against a girl right now. i'm going to poison her again. i'm going to destroy her car. i'm going to get her in trouble with her parents. i'm going to ruin her. i can't wait to break her. i'm teaching myself to be heartless. my dad told me before that he hated me and he wished that i never was born. he disowned me. i don't know if i've forgiven him, but i don't really care. my mom tried to strangle me. people come to me for help. via QUOTE i live in a pretty nice place, but there's enough jackasses running around to have gotten a few of my friends seriously hurt or killed. it's not all gang activity per say, but some of the personal grudges that some individuals hold against each other here are f**king ridiculous. i mean, i've gone far enough to poison someone and take them out of regular activity for a couple days - big deal, it's temporary. but it makes me furious when i hear about the people i used to hang out with getting stalked or stuffed in trunks and bullshit. i dunno, whatever. via QUOTE You can call it that if you want. It's just something to induce vomiting to counter poison ingestion, although it's been proven to have no effect. hahah or get some drugstore sleeping pills, grind them up, and put them in her drink... make her late to work the next day. OR if you're ballsy enough, get whichever ones have possible side effects of memory loss and ... yeah. Or tell your doctor that you're having trouble sleeping and just read up on pills so you know which ones you want, or even just borrow some from a friend. I'm a nice person, I swear. HOWEVER, if you're being serious, you'll need to mix ipecac in with a super-sweet, dark drink (it's kind of bitter. I tried :d). Coffee or coke, and it does NOT mix well. It actually kind of takes a while to mix, and that's kind of suspicious to be mixing syrup into a person's drink at a restaurant. I'd go with the sleeping pills. via QUOTE oh dang. oh dang. if the thought of an ex bothered me so much, i'd just run him out of the metroplex or poison him. via CB NEVER FORGETS Y'ALL. ONCE YOU POST, IT'S A DONE DEAL. |
