Two very potent and completely irrelevant points:

When a women says nothing is wrong, everything is wrong.

When anyone says "according to Nietzsche" they probably don't know how to spell it.

Hence my comment about women and how they communicate.

women, considering the degree of time and attention we confer on them must be the most 'important' items on the planet.

[and they are!]

you communicate with a woman with your eyes, not with your mouth!

I like the shows, but haven't even seen them all. I'm a bit slow when it comes to following TV Sitcoms, so I'm just now starting to watch the re-runs and find out what everyone was talking about years ago Smile

I was watching Last Comic Standing last night, and my favorite comedian, Jim Norton, was talking about this. He said you ask a woman what she finds sexy in a guy, and she'll say eye contact is very sexy. However, there's a fine line between a seductive glance, and the "I'm going to rape you" stare. Whenever I lock eyes with a girl, he said, he freezes up, standing there with his eyes wide open, starts licking his lips, and mouths the words, "YOU'RE DEAD!"

when I look in her eyes, I see nothing.

Is this zen for something?

Yeah I've only watched the re-runs, partly because it ended before I hit puberty, but also I don't think it was ever really big over here (England) - for us it's pretty much cult viewing. But I think I've seen nearly all of them now, they're on every day on paramount Very Happy

When I try to get some, and get shut down, I'm really just getting nothing, but it feels like its worse than nothing.

Isn't that something?

Maybe you just forgot that you were alive before, and when you were born, that was simply a rebirth; recycling, so to speak.

Well, I tried to medicate, I mean meditate, myself into an Ultimate Reality by rinsing out the ones I don't need or rather prefer to forget to discover the truth but I came up with nothing except a hangover! Now ain't that something?

Do you really want to continue with this line of inquiry Question My bag of profound statements is rapidly diminishing Exclamation

Okay, I'll stop. Or else, we may both end up with nothing to say.

I've got plenty of nothing
and nothing's plenty for me.

How come nothing breaks into no thing.
but nowhere breaks into now here??

Something could be anything.
No.
Some thing indicates a thing not just any thing.

Not any is nothing.
