what are you mumbling about? i don't understand what you're saying and i'm pretty sure it isn't my fault-- do you have something to say about my exchange with pbradley, or my answer to floterz, or what? i'll be happy to answer your questions (I see two questions maks in your posts) but please, decipher. 1) The election of somewho who what? "Everyone else before real"? 2) Do you realize in what context I used the word "derision"? Here's a rough translation, simplified: pbradley - nobody will hire one with my degree !@#$%! - you undervalue your skills pbradley(scornfully) - i really don't, but i like to fake it for the pity !@#$%!(mockingly) - you'll get pity on the internet, and putdowns That brief exchange had nothing to do with anything else. 3) So, what about the brutal force of grim reality? |

Nah, you stop the bitchy abstraction and answer the question, which I'm dead sure you understood very well. Stop acting naive or like you are all superior to others. For once. |

what question? a question mark does not a question make. ask a fucking question in an intelligible way and you might get an answer. just cos i point out your nonsensical syntax doesn't make it like "im superior to others". i just ask for intelligible questions if an answer is expected of me. otherwise, i might as well ask you: what at where with done who? plus two? is there something that? oh, stop acting naive and answer those! |

Well, that very much depends. In principle I agree, but it depends on the market - if you're an estate agent, you've been bricking it for years; if you're a small business in Renfrewshire, you've either been bricking it for the last 20 years or you've given up caring. I personally dislike the London-centrism that affects a lot of people (most often non-Londoners, I should add) but I entirely agree that London saw this coming way ahead of the rest of this country. And for what it's worth, London is fucking huge, and the tremors are reacted to and consolidated much quicker. Small businesses in my hometown (actually a village) are utterly, utterly fucked (so you can look forward to even more over-crowding in London when all the Cornish migrate up).

The art world is mimicking industry, I assure you. Remember Warhol's factory? (Generalising massively) artists tended to rely upon benefactors prior to him, and Warhol got his notions from industry, not vice-versa. Everyone's a prick, but artists have only relatively recently become mercenary.

I agree with the first half of the last sentence.

i swear to you this is gibberish Aren't you the dude who actively partcipated in making the election of someone who's going to make you feel the pinch even more seriosuly than everyone else before real (i.e. wasting time and changing nothing)? Shouldn't you be the one who will have the deadpan look on his face when derision will come in all the brutal force of grim reality? Here's my attempt at deciphering: I get that I actively participated in the election of someone (Obama). You claim that said "someone" (Obama) is not just young and tanned, but is also going to make me feel the pinch even more seriosuly than "everyone else before real". See, that's where you lose me. "everyone else before real". What? Then you post in parenthesis "(i.e. wasting time or changing nothing)." It seems to me that you claim that I helped elect someone who apparently harmful to me in some vague and confusing manner that doesn't make sense (I get the tenor, but not the meaning). So, no, I don't believe I helped elect someone who's going to "make me" feel some kind of pinch before something real i.e. |

part 2:
Shouldn't you be the one who will have the deadpan look on his face when derision will come in all the brutal force of grim reality? Should I do what? I'm not generally deadpan, I'm a 5-alarm kind of person. Derision will come... Derision: act of treating with contempt.Pity (especially fake one, as pbradley joked) comes with contempt. So derision will come to me? What's new? Doesn't it come to everyone? the brutal force of grim reality. Hm... ok...??? You're waxing prophetic and want me to say "yes" or "no"? |
