Ill regret this (felt like babbling)

I'm missing the reference. Is it tron?

Not even close.

Here's a clue (and it should be pretty obvious since you not infrequently drop references to this line):

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

Weird. I don't even remember that line in the movie. I have the movie and I've seen it about 8 times. I take it's during the pot smoking scene with the professor... which is somewhat fitting since I'm forgetting it.

and i still have no idea what you're talking about.

*shakes head sadly*

I may still have had color in me beard when this movie was released.

[PsychoPompos]

You people need more culture

All Hail Useless Information!!

[AcdQueen89]

culture or pop culture?

[PsychoPompos]

Haha, Theres a difference?

[AcdQueen89]

i read shakespeare while i listen to mozart.

should i be reading cosmo while listening to the real world?

Maybe the point of everything is that there is no point,
and as such we shouldnt try to burden our minds with things that will eventually become clear

I'm kinda with you on that one, with the difference that I reckon everything might have a point, but part of the point is to never know for certain whether or not there actually is a point.

Either way, the second point about things eventually becoming clear still stands.

The trouble is, human beings are incurably curious...it's in our nature as much as plants grow towards the sunlight. So perhaps the point is to keep looking for a point...which seems like a circular condition, naturally, but nevertheless we are what we are, and in the point-seeking curiosity stakes, that rationale would appear to be as good as any other, would it not?

[PsychoPompos]

Turjan: 
Exactly, if anything its not worth argueing belief systems over

AcdQueen:
Well, i suppose it depends on your taste.
but thinking about it, whats relevant in society?
and who defines what "culture" is?
certainly there is no comparison between cosmo and shakespeare
but to each his (or her) own i suppose

[AcdQueen89]

i was refering to what 'high society' (not hte pot heads) have traditionally referred to as culture.

pop culture is generally referred to as the modern stuff that's popular now. in general being cultured is usually referred to as knowing your shakespeare and mozart from bach and thoreau

[PsychoPompos]

i understood that
didnt need the definition as it was more of a rhetorical question

and incase you seriously didnt realize
it was in more of a playful tone
without delving into specifics
i simply meant that our views as a culture are seriously lacking
mtv culture is destroying my mind
today a girl even asked me who elvis and sinatra were

I think I got Turjan's point.

It's all about the circle of life. Everything good is a circle.

Pizza. Cookies. Gold Coins.

Boobs.
