1. Hooray for confusion!

:toast:

(Why are we confused?)

[chickenscratching]

4. lately

i've realized how hard and confusing it is to decipher meaning out of internet conversations.

[ghostsofgiants]

8. Ah, yes

Nasty business, that.

10. Text limits conversation

and it is very difficult to overcome that limitation. Only the best can do so.

17. its too easy

for me to create drama in my life, unnecessary drama that is. I read into things too much/too little, and I think I generally place too much emotion on this board than I truly want to.

does that make sense?

regardless: drink and be merry :toast:

18. This is the 21st Century Pub

And it is oh-so-easy to invest emotion into your local hangout. It is oh-so-easy to forget that this is just ones and zeros transmitted through a data pipe into your difference engine to be crunched into recognizable symbols easily read but difficult to understand.

It is legitimate and real, but it is not the best way to communicate emotion.

11. Meaning is wherever one finds it.

Meaning is whatever one brings to it.

Meaning and confusion are not mutually exclusive.

Meaning is a chimera, but one worth chasing. If one seeks meaning, that is.

My thumb hurts.

12. poor thumb

i'm not sure what i seek
but i'm comfortable with that for now.
