Actually it was just a theory, a hypothetical explanation as to why/what we might be feeling. I wasn't saying love was impossible, I was just acknowledging the fact that most of the time it's temporary and is surrounded by the person's internal feelings. I was saying that people don't love for love, they love for themselves...possibly,

The Thing We Call Love Posted April 24th, 2013 in General

You've probably seen the court cases, best friends, the best of any kind, who have been just that for many, many years and sometimes more. All of a sudden, crash, bang, boom, need I say more? Everything that was is gone, lost from the heart and mind. Let's say for instance, Emily loves Jeremy, and has for months now, and she tells her friend Allison, the girl who was supposed to be her best friend. Sister, they sometimes called each other. Ally decides to say it in front of the entire art class, and crash-bang-boom, the friendship, the sibling-hood. Is destroyed. But why is this. What exactly is this thing called love which we so adore in life and we have such a thirst for, but when it turns on us we despise it with the same passion we started out with. It can be your best friend, or your worst enemy. But the real question is, is there a such thing as companionship? Your parents can turn on you, your wife, girlfriend, and best friend can turn on you, and even you can turn on yourself. So who's left? Is there really a such thing as love and friendship? and if there is, more importantly, is it a permanent feeling, something that can not change and never will once it is developed for an organism? Not my guess, if you ask me, based on the history of human behaviour, our prime goal in life is material possession and personal gain, whether we put a mask on it or not, which I think we might have already. That mask is called love, the sweet icing on a very sour, sour cake. We call it love, but really, I believe it might be just the simple recognition that two people are benefiting from each other, individually. It's a singular thing, not something that involves the conjoining of two souls, as they say. You see, I believe that this feeling we have learned to call love, over thousands of years, is simply the temporary filling of the body's hormones which can switch from person to person. Notice two things that support my hypothesis, for instance, have you ever loved someone? Notice that if you have ever loved more than one person, the only thing that might change about the feeling you get each time is probably the scent of your lover, or some sort of thing differentiating them from someone else, which is why we identify love as something that can happen more than once, with two different people. In other words, this love is not external but internal, which can be bent to adapt to each person who get's closest to this feeling we call love, the fastest. You always see the posts on Facebook, the, "I didn't think I would fall in love with you when I met you, but I did." The reason for this being, probably, that you did not actually fall in love with this person, but the endocrine system(where hormones are produced) and the heart simply realised that the person who it believed to be the perfect person to fill in the false feeling of love, was not. After which it switches gears and starts to recognise that person's qualities(smells, personality, etc.), might be up to the task. Before I end this thread I might add one more thing, about teenagers. As you know, teenager's and adolescent's feelings, hormones, sexuality, personal and social identification, and physical traits start setting in at puberty. During this time they start to stray away from their parents and start "going out" with (most of the time) the opposite gender. Applying the above opinions being took from the rest of this thread, is it a long shot to assume that the reason children start to rebel against their parents around this age, is not for no reason at all, but for the unconsidered fact that the heart has grown tired of domestic "filling" as I will call it(what I was saying about the false idea of love, before), and has moved on to exploring more foreign filling methods? A.K.A., girlfriends and boyfriends getting together. I really hope you enjoyed this exploration into the confusing pubescent world of love and curiosity, and I hope I've made sense to you. Thank you

The Future of Gaming! Posted February 12th, 2013 in Video Games

As some of you hardcore gamers or aspiring hardcore gamers may know, there is a vast dimension which surpasses that of 1080p. Yes gamers, it's the world of 4k, a whopping 4,096 Ã- 2,304 which far ecceeds us puny HDMI gamers. Right now 4k tv's are being sold at somewhere around 10,000 bucks online. With the right graphics card(GTX 690, anyone?), and the best processor out there, you'd have a combination of the ages. However, as we're juping into this new, exciting form of gaming, there's also the concern of where the gaming industry is headed. Now I believe there is nothing whatsoever wrong with the gaming industry as of now, but if we want a monster combo with the new 8k tv's, we need to rethink our strategy. Instead of worrying about the 2D graphics, backgrounds, and how many characters you can fit, worry more about trying to improve the gamer's individual experience in movement, animation, fighting, flying etc. I think our graphics is ok, but gaming has SOOO much more potential. I think when the 8k tv's come out in 2020, we need a new, improved, better, faster, stronger, more epic, heart touching, intense gameplay, screw the CGI, and have more money to worry about the player's individual and multiplayer experience. It's odd to me that these people are too worried about money(probably) to make revolutionary changes like I've mentioned to the gaming industry.

What's up with N.K? Posted January 26th, 2013 in Politics

I'm wondering guys, is North Korea a potential threat to anyone's safety? Little info is ever given on Kim Jong Un since his father died, and you always hear about nuclear weapon possibilities. Something's sketchy about it, and if they pose a threat to the U.S, the government's likely to go to war with them. What do you think?
