"As long as there's a record deal, we'll always be friends."-Jack Black, Tenacious D.
Things I've learned in the past ten years:
1.) People are never who they say they are, and it's not their fault. This applies to all social interaction, not just the net. They don't know who they are, so how can they tell you?
2.) The myth of soulmates does more damage to people than smoking or heroin.
3.) Suffering, not joy, is what binds people together. It is not our faith that acts as the glue of society, but our doubts. That's why it's called the Human Condition, and not the Joyce or Dave condition.
4.) One should never turn down the opportunity to make a new friend. The reason being is that every person you include in your personal universe expands that universe. I would like everyone in the world to be my friend, because then, I would be the world.
These are just my observations, thus they are subjective. I don't wish to debate my perceptions, this is furnished as being purely informational.
