The Intelligent People's Thread - Progressive Rock Music Forum

Well we all enjoy the bull penis. After all, what else separates us from the disgusting masses?

And I have seven, fool. Hand made by my personal slaves in Peru. I own 90% of the country ya know.

There's ALWAYS some left
And break out the wine! As I said these pure crystal goblets can't go to waste

Yes, it's hard having such a massive intellect.
Everyday I am disturbed by the drudgeries of life.

Ah well, the price you pay I suppose.

Well if you've only got one then sure.
I guess more rocky mountain oysters for me.

Hope nothing's troubling you chap.

Well don't be greedy man!

Anyone up for some Rocky Mountain Oysters?
I'm feeling adventurous today.

And I am a history nerd. I once was staying a friends house, the 2 of them were bored mindless while I as talking to his mother about WWI and II.
LOL

I could teach a history class right now. Problem is, well all the BS involved.
So I figured I'll do....something with my life. Then when I'm 40 or 50 hopefully I'll have enough to put aside to teach just for fun. I'd be willing to do it without pay.

Then it can be on my terms, and it can be just to enjoy.

Well its mainly me just being an arse.
But I also dreamed of being a history teacher.
Maybe one day...

I've been reading up about the fall of the Roman Empire.

I find it ironic that the various Germanic tribes, but especially the Franks, quickly tried to emulate the empire they just sacked, including conversion to Christianity.

I guess I'd do the same. I mean yeah, you just brought down the Roman Empire and modern civilization.
Now what?

This brings back to mind James Burke's TV documentary, The Day The Universe Changed. Oh cool, just looked it up and you can get it on DVD as of this year. Big smile

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

gotcha!

What?

The issue of Bull Penis has never been an issue, those wishing to imbibe are free to do so without prejudice, I'm not even sure why you bother to bring it up since it is neither here nor there and ipso facto is an irrelevance known only to yourselves.

I am of the firm belief that it is possible to be silly and intelligent, that humour can rise above mere cultural stereotyping and achieve a degree of gravitas that is both humorous and mentally challenging. Yet again, I find myself on a team of one in this matter, as I am with the tangential thread that is not tangential.

I was unaware of the need for an entry requirement, which I can only assume would be sufficient as to make me illegible for membership and that very illegibility would preclude any actual desire for acceptance whilst being a prerequisite yet fundamental understanding that for the positive participation in such a fraternity as this purports to be, thus would be far from efficacious in its bipartisan interactions as to reduce its appropriateness to below such thresholds (which could be ascertained by empirical methods) so that involvement would be counter to gainful results pertaining to mirthful intent.

What?
