I don't see it as name calling if you're telling me about your metal pictures of me.

Am I dripping hot wax on you as well? Are we reading Ayn Rand together?

That's an awfully bitter and pretentious argument against someone that merely espoused common f*cking sense and humanism; I guess it's the kind of inarguable logic and wit you wish people associated with you? Maybe this would be a good time to include links to one of your barren poetry/opinion blogs, you simply must have one

'Cool' is an ambiguous term for me but not for Hicks, I'd rather he top these kind of lists than other lesser social commentators. I also personally found him hilarious (the first umpteenth viewings anyway), 'tis the comedy of recognition. And no i'm not counting George Carlin, whose bitter diatribes have always been just that to me. And no I'm not a stoner

also Big3 would you mind disclosing who that is in your avvy? I am not American but i am guessing Ulysses S. Grant from the dress...

I don't have a problem answering this, but we're hijacking Rezz's list. For the time being, I'll PM you the answer. If you want to start a "Big3 is a pretentious ****" thread in the Games, Lists, Jokes forum go for it. Until then...

I hate to gush about Chapelle because he's universally great, but the first time I stumbled upon "Black White Supremisict" on television...not knowing what I was watching it was impossible not to laugh, but I couldn't tell if I should. Thankfully, I was alone and didn't have to hide my potentially insensitive laughter.

And if you've ever seen the interview where he's talking to James Lipton, I think he's cool in both regards.

Gendun Drup is credited with being one of the founders of Buddhism and the first known Dali Lama of Tibet. It is amazing what he accomplished in such a short time even while having absolutely no real political power. He carried out a religion (better classified as a philosophy) that has lasted even through today. There are many translations and copies of his teachings, that very well apply to today society.

all I know is that he's the first Dalai Lama, I'll have to read up on this cat. Do you know if he was a fundamentalist old school follower or did he create his own discipline? Gautama ftw!

co-signed on Dave Chapelle btw, funny funny man

Yea, you can probably only find his work on the internet, library's might not have it. Ill look around and try to find some. Personally I have only read the most recent Dali Lamas works.

He was a little of both. Followed many of the old traditions and ways but history recorded him as setting many new ideas into action.

to me Buddhism shows that the line between religion and philosophy is arbitrary and shaky, so i don't feel comfortable calling it "more philosophy" or "more religion"
