Nothing like a bit of the old me-so-stupid routine to lower someone's guard.
Clever but probably ineffective in this case. Trying to remove specks from other peoples' eyes in such a direct fashion is rarely fruitful and often produces backlash, unless they want to hear it, like you just said you do (thus inviting this here post).
Come on, Philalethist. There's humility and then there's the illusion of humility. Your illusory humility matches your illusory stupidity wonderfully.
Edit: In the sake of fairness and justice, all entities using the forum now have permission to criticise me in unbridled fashion.
Damn, I should probably buy more effective eye speck tweezers... and mirror to use them with! A little self-deprecating humor can be helpful when curbing one's pride (Dante take notes!), it helps not to take oneself too seriously (or anything for that matter), and so teasing oneself is useful! Although this is surely all just an elaborate attempt by my ego to show off how humble I am! It's hard though you know? How is someone as incredibly smart and wise as me supposed to realistically take on the herculean task of realizing that all thoughts of superiority and specialness are illusions? (Sigh) It sure is hard being me.
Yeah the struggle is real. Sorry for my less than welcoming post before, brother (sister?). Welcome to the forums. I didn't mean you any great offence, I was just kind of suspicious about the fact that you chose that as your first post, and so decided to take the liberty to test you a little. Carry on.
I thought it was funny! Seriously, no hard feelings whatsoever, I thought your response was great!
Backstory on my first post here: I've occasionally glanced at these forums over the last few years, read the Law of One maybe 2013 I think? Good stuff. Sometimes I'll search these forums for one thing or another, yesterday I searched 'free energy' this thread came up probably because I didn't put the words in quotes and this thread has the word 'energy' all over the place, the fact that it's a more recent thread surely brought it to the top as well. So I start reading this thread, which of course has nothing to do with free energy technology, but it was definitely a little interesting to read, so I read it till the end (skimmed over a few of the posts) decided to make a post, made a new user because my last username was a crap username I use for junk registrations nowadays, and made my first post! Whether or not I post much at all beyond this thread is completely up in the air.
