Who or what is Deepak Chopra?

 

A cult of personality in the genre of decadent post-philosophical literature.

 

I'm sorry I wasn't fast enough.

 

*giggle*

OK, so I had to google him/it, but the question was sincere when I asked it.

 

I want to be back to where I was before I did that googling.

 

Mu!*

~ Mister E ("Proof of the power of my striking appearance exists in your inability to unlook at me.")

 

 

P.S., *"Un-ask the question."

 

P.S.S. Again, I apologize.

 

P.S.S.S. Isn't Modern Western blasphemy a loathsome topic?

Re: The Last Word

 

Well, I can give an example.

 

One day, about 25 years ago, I was in a shopping mall. A kid in his early teens (I think), with a rather bovine look to him (by which I mean: large, beefy, and devoid of intelligence) was walking by wearing a t-shirt that said "EINSTEIN FOOTBALL". (There is an Einstein Middle School in our metropolitan area.)

 

My response, once I finally was able to articulate it, was, "Thou blaspheme."

More for Mister E :eg:

 

Feeling short great expectations

 

The door is open but I'm locked inside

 

A leaky heart will hold no water/but a brand new start will set it on fire

 

Don't look in the mirror and see/all those things you wish you could be/be in peace be yourself

 

I'm a fossil before him

fear is the thing you fear the most.

 

i’m tired of walking in the rain/with clear skies ahead

 

have no fear, have some faith/you’re never alone/when you’re by yourself

 

Recall the child in you/You can go your own way/You can learn to touch tomorrow

Thanks!

 

Underwhelming.

 

Amphiboly.

 

Esoteric material pretending to be exoteric.

 

Reverse-psychology within a cheap post-hypnotic suggestion.

 

An overly constrictive prescription.

 

An unenlightening tautology.

 

No. You are in bad faith. :lol:

 

If your head needs a bandage/Try a roadhouse open sandwich/Dodge the waitress and hit the road again

 

Had a friend, I heard she died/On a needle she was crucified

 

Jesus in the bottom of a bottle, yeah

 

City life is closing in on me/The way things go, thirty years/Bus timetable’ll be my elegy

 

I never knew such luxury/Before my verdict fell/Four walls, washbasin, prison bed

 

Well youth is my advantage/Anonymity my reward/While the world is being measured for a uniform/It's my luxury to be ignored

 

She played Mozart with my feelings/And havoc with my face

 

You know man cannot live on/Empty principles alone

 

And if I don’t hang around/Our old gambling grounds/It does not mean that I’ve forgotten/We believed, and I still do

 

I don’t have to tell you/How that you should do your job, I don’t want to have to be the one to shock your happy home.

 

You don’t tell me anything/You just go on and on/And you don’t make no sense

 

And don’t bother offering to drive me to the station/You’d only drive me round the bend

 

And who’s gonna judge/The role somebody plays/In someone else’s budget movie

Well, I catch such missed references both ways. For instance, upstairs in the Math Department there's a faculty member named John Carter. When I append "of Mars" to that, all the students look at me with utter incomprehension.
