Pithy F*rging Sayings (15th edit.)
Welcome to our 15th edition of Pithy F*rging Sayings gathered from the singularity.
As always the citation of these sayings does not necessarily imply endorsement, the goal is to provoke thought.
"Even good things can be messed up by bad timing."---staff
"I wonder what it feels like to have no desires left because you have satisfied them all, smothered them with money even before they are born. Is an existence without desire very desirable? And is the poverty of desire better than rank poverty itself?"---Vikas Swarup
"Land grows everything that the man knows."---LiLa

Clarion, your observations are keen brother.
In a world where necessity is the equalizer any imbalance is the product of our desires.
Your response on BCR, yea, the discussion has given us a whole new interpretive platform.
As always feeling the posts, ESPECIALLY the one about school privacy. I was told long ago that computers were being manufactured with functioning cameras whether they were advertised as so or not and there had been talk that the manufacturers were actively spying on their customers. Sounded like a page out of Google's playbook.

Sir Truth-
You are undoubtedly correct. Necessity rules the day. It underlines the facetiousness of trying to abstract humans from the rest of the Earth's residents.
As for the school cameras; yeah hard to imagine how anyone from the school that was okay. And you have to wonder who else is using laptop cameras to surreptitiously tape their users.
