EXPERIMENT!

innersmile · Post by **innersmile** » 19 Aug 2004 05:46

answering in 1-5 words

because, less is more. what you don't say is almost as powerful as what you do. Anyway, people get bored reading someone's selfabsorbed reasoning that only the writter can begin to fathom (no reference to the prev post).

But, sometimes elaboration is essential to make one's point. Especially in complex matters, one can draw on analogies that bear little resembelence to the topic and twist the meaning to suit their needs. When one manipulates certain truths to elaborate... god, what am I saying?

see what I mean...

Red or Black Twizzlers?

Telling really long stories about why you chose what. It makes it more interesting. Fuck it, atleast give a reason for why you chose what. I hate it when someone asks a question, and the reply is obviously a guess. Worse if the reply is "I dont know". If you don't know what the options are, you shouldn't answer. This is clearly a scientific experiment, therefor guesses just won't do. Plus, if I don't know what the question is about, and someone gives a really nice explanation for their answer, I have a better chance of finding out what the question was about.

Not knowing what to ask
or
Not knowing what to answer

btw ebo, I think the people you mentioned are from Asia somewhere, Indonesia if I remember correctly.

EDIT: I hate posting at the same time as someone else...

DEFINITELY Red.

Definitely not knowing what to ask, because then you can sit there for a while and think about it. Sometimes people post stuff up here that I have no idea what they're talking about, so I just have to guess after a few days with no replies. And yes, that does suck.

Really really spicy hot wings that burn your throat or wings that are cold and not spicy at all, and taste horrible.

not knowing what to ask- the answer will never be found without the question

House Party all the way. Drinks are cheaper, usually you know a lot
of people so the vibe is better, and people are generally not just there
to get laid - and by that behave like monkeys all evening. Besides, I
live with 8 other people in a house and our parties are great!

Kobus, maybe you're right. I'm really unsure about where they were from.

Spend money on:

Either a good movie at the cinemas or a good CD/LP?
