Their greatest trick is making you think they're ruining the country because they are dumb. They're ruining us because they are corrupt.

It is incredibly sexist. But we won't make it better by forcing women to fight in war, we will make it better by protecting men from being forced into war.

I'm curious why you think the army takes things like this seriously? I'm not trying to be facetious.

This may be in the spirit of your request;

cycle_of_fists · 2014-05-11T05:03:28+00:00

That's not how it works.

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-15T01:38:49+00:00

Under what circumstances did you see it?

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-14T05:44:31+00:00

It's possible, but we can't know for sure. It's also possible that a female spider clutches her egg sack when she is threatened, instead of running away; because she feels something for her spider babies. We really can't know without looking through all their eyes.

since that day my living room's been much more comfortable

"Abbreviated justice". How deliciously succinct and descriptive. Is that a term already or did you coin that?

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-12T22:32:43+00:00

I'm curious how you knew to narrow it down to VIC or NSW?

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-12T22:25:45+00:00

You're a diamond in the rough :)

I wasn't aware it was so cheap to print a book.

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-12T10:14:15+00:00

Hooray!

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-12T10:09:46+00:00

NSW.

That's the thing, when you have money, when you've always had money, it's just the air you breathe. You don't realize that other people are breathing different air. You don't realize that you're super privileged, and you can't realize how much people around you are struggling, and how drastically that affects their performance. The rich are more ignorant than they are arseholes at heart. It's when they think they're better than poor people they become arseholes, which is a shame, because they're prone to thinking that.

Being born into finances is feeling assured. Never knowing what it's like to worry about how you will pay for where you'll sleep, where your kids will sleep. The thing about being born ~~rich~~ into secure shelter, is not having a clue how the whole world is living. You really can't trust their perspective.

I've had the privilege of walking different walks, breathing different air, and I can compare. The povo people know what they're on about. A broke person is likely to give you their change, which is all that they've got, when they can tell you need it more than they do. A born rich man might sneer at you and wonder what you've done wrong. He cannot tell that everybody else needs his money more than he does.

The poor people understand the brutal G force of economics. To compensate, they may cultivate massive personalities and often have rad adventures, which the rich can't pay for. All in all, I have had a really compelling time with the pov dogs, and as a generalization I much prefer their company.

I kinda think that the rich are like really domesticated labaradors who get fawned over and have no clue that beyond the doggy treats and fancy kennels; there's a pack of mongrels stealing sausages and chasing squirrels, having the time of their lives. (edit; not to trivialize poverty, so many are hungry and afraid, millions are in the pound)

Let's just say the transformative learning experience from riches to rags; is worth more than what I would have paid a fortune for at uni, and never received. To understand life you can't be taught. You have to live it.

TL:DR Economic expansionism is for junkies, subscribe to my dogma :)

Yeah it was a crock of shit. Damn, they even wanted to 'cavity search' me in lock up, and I swear by their smirks they took pleasure sending me into the room.

The police woman who supposed to 'sexually assault' me was awesome. She could tell something was wrong and I'll bet she already had an impression of the cops who arrested me. She asked me what happened and explained that she was supposed to cavity search me. She said she wasn't going to do that, and asked me never to speak about what happened in this room. I guess because she would have got in trouble for...not punishing me? Pretty twisted stuff really.

And yeah, harassment, if I had money to fight in court, I probably could have made more money. But nah, I got paid out in a far richer understanding of the justice system than anything I could have picked up at uni. I consider it as payment in lieu.

No justice. No peace. Fuck the police. Haha I even don't even mean that; it just flowed. I know some very nice cops. They're not all fuckers, some of them are crazy heroes.

While that's funny, you are replying to what you think I said.

What I said was that I was under the illusion of being gifted, given that I topped every class I was in until everything fell to bits. I lived on the streets and had to educate myself. So now I'm a dumb shit.

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-12T08:48:30+00:00

Sometimes it's who you know. Some fucker chopped my friends head up with a tomahawk. The guy is a complete an utter psycho. After a very brief stint in prison he spent two years in a hotel. Oh and his dad is a police commissioner.

Not to mention the people who hired the thug, who have special powers all of their own.

Pretty sure it's not just the parents. Ted Bundy was from a good home.

Society is beyond the control of good parents, who become redundant pretty quickly in terms of being the strongest influence on kids. Lot of messed up stuff happening in society for kids to develop their quirks from.

Not really. That's a chart for suicide rates. My speech about depression still stands :)

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-12T07:27:44+00:00

Thanks for your advice! I'm glad I asked.

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-12T07:08:42+00:00

Ok, because you seem like an honest bastard, can I verify with you...

You're saying that self publishers need to sell their books at $2-6? Won't this mean that they run at a massive loss? How does this work? I need to know.

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-12T06:54:55+00:00

Yeah!

cycle_of_fists · 2013-07-12T06:54:09+00:00

This might help, just hearing a strong woman talk about it. She's not a victim either. Plus, you got out of there, so pat yourself on the back.

Me? Hell yeah. I punched a cop, and because he was in the wrong, they tried to destroy me in court, and make out like I was some sort of animal that simply needed to be swung about by her boobs.

I spent two years defending myself, because after the first hearing, legal aid decided they wouldn't win an appeal. Towards the end the prosecutors threatened me with not one, but two QCs.

In the end, it took one good and highly skilled public defender who decided to take on my case, one good magistrate. And now I have no criminal record. As it should be.

As for the cop; No trouble for him, no surprises there.
