THE FORUMS

@UtopiaFive

Oh yeah, then check this out.  This is awesome lol:

JFM, I haven't the slightest clue what the fuck you are trying to say here beyond saying that RRPUA is shit.

What I hear you saying is that everyone is awesome if they will just let go of all the social conditioning and comparisons between themselves and other people or something like that, and I'm pretty sure that I don't agree with you. In my mind, awesome is a relative measure and everyone certainly is not at the same level of awesomeness.

There is not a single physical or mental or emotional attribute that is distributed evenly across the universe of human beings. Some have more ability, more talent, and may be more awesome, but only to the extent that they maximized their inborn talents. If someone with lots of talent has not developed it, he may be less awesome than someone with less innate talent who has worked hard and developed their talents.

Most people, that majority of people do not maximize their talents and abilities.

I was forming a reply to someone today in a discussion of success. They were saying that successful people work hard, but so do the very poor, and the difference in income is not explained away by the difference in effort expended. My point in my reply was that for every poor person working three jobs to exhaustion and then collapsing into bed only to get up the next day and do it again, there is another person who comes home from a difficult, but ultimate pretty average job and sits around on their ass drinking beer and watching television after work, or spends all their disposable income on things that while enjoyable don't help them move higher on the socio-economic scale.

Thus, while it's true that successful people do have to attribute some of their success to the blessings of their environment and starting conditions, it's also true that many people are not successful because they don't expend the necessary energy to elevate themselves from their current station in life.

Like someone else mentioned, I've met some women that are very smart and engaging and fun to be with and invariably they have a masculine intellect. I don't mean that they are trying to be men, only that they are smart in the "working on a doctorate in a hard science" smart.

When I say smart and interesting, I mean a certain thing which roughly translates into above the second standard deviation with respect to mental agility.

So, regarding the original sentiment. Yes, I do find that most people are walking around half asleep to the pure unadulterated joy of being awesome because you have put time and energy into maximizing your innate potential.

@Crusher: Yeah I hear you, but look at the above post. RRPUA's ego knows it doesn't need self esteem to survive. Your ego is the OPPOSITE of self esteem. So if there's any doubt about anti-value, low identity and isolation in the RRPUA disaster, the above post covers it. There's no INTEREST in value...just an empty narcissitic shell. Taking. Imagine where that's heading.

As far as your points regarding awesomeness, I was just referring to self esteem. It doesn't interfere with anything your saying, and I couldn't find a single thing incorrect in your argument. Just remember that the issue is self-esteem when at the very top of the status heap.

A guy being totally cool with himself, no matter where he's at. From that place you can do a lot of good stuff...like what you were saying in your post. RRPUA ( and the masses which support the foundation of sand) is NOT coming from that place.

The place he's coming from is hell. Hell just means you not only don't LIKE your real self, you REJECT your real self. And then, on top of the pain-relieving numbness and ecstasy of the "special" ME is the delusion. And seeing that the ego is WORKING ( delusion) brings arrogance...and authority.

That's why I say that that position gets no women. It's better to just jerk off in front of a mirror. That IS what's going on with that.

 JFM just stop... You selling but no one's buying, bro.... 

 JFM, I get what you're trying to say, but a couple of points:

-Why do you keep hammering your points so insistently, if you've found way of living that fits you, you can just live your life like that and not worry if other people want to live their lives in different ways.
-It seems to me your only interest is coming up with a good life philosophy. The things you say in themselves are interesting, sometimes I think you're taking it too far, but you make some good points. However, it seems that that's all there is to you. You share zero information about your personal life, do you play sports, have hobbies, what about girls?? You come across as someone who spends every minute of his life thinking about this shit. If that's all your life consists of, then it's pointless. The things you talk about are meant as therapy. Once you've healed yourself, you can go back to living your life. Enjoy it, get some girls, do the superficial things and enjoy them.
