    Since we now can both agree that you are in fact a form of parasite do you think this is the result of adopting nihilism as a lifestyle rather than its intended purpose as postmoral methodology which leads to the accomplishment of ideals?

    Hint: I'm offering you a less defective outlook.

    And now you're trying to put words in my mouth.

    You deny personal responsibility then? You would say that all who look to themselves for definition are parasites?

    I ask you then. If you don't examine yourself in your revaluation of values where do you look?

    Oh. I know your answer. You don't examine at all. You simply negate.

    Like a slave.

    What a non-sequitur. Is this somehow derived from your opening thesis on negating all inherent and universal values?

    What is your problem with the word 'lifestyle'? Ah. I know. You are trying to say that by taking on a nihilistic view as a 'lifestyle' that you have ceased question nihilism itself?

    That's my point, buddy.
    Get your own.

    Hint: You should stop talking out your ass and actually adress the topic.

    You fail to examine the material presented and fail to negate what has been presented.

    That is not a non-sequitur because it directly relates. Do you even understand the meaning of non-sequitur? My statement was the exact position taken by the American Nihilist Undergound Society, a body of people, not your personal opinion which only you pay attention to.

    Because nihilism is methodology. Method does not conflate with lifestyle. Method is not output, an intended ideal or goal as I have already stated and you have failed to logically address. Do you understand the difference between the two terms?

    I failed to follow your link to your site.
    If you wanted to discuss something from that site then you should have presented it here. In this thread. In this discussion forum.

    Are you providing further evidence for your status as mere spammer?

    I did address the material you presented.

    You failed to respond. Even saying that I should speak with the author of the piece, not you.

    Relates to what?
    You posted your original post. All the following posts were off-topic.
    Remember your first post? The one about negating all inherent values?
    Remember that?
    I know it's tough to remember seeing as how they're not your words and all.

    How nice of you to have a social club with whose voice and authority you speak with.

    I was addressing the things you said in this thread. Not the blatherings of some group of trenchcoated mascara wearers.

    Is lifestyle output? I think lifestyle is methodology. I.e. the method by which you live your life.

    This sentence makes no sense.
    Method is not output. I agree with that.
    An intended ideal or goal as you hae already stated.

    An intended ideal or goal what? You're missing a predicate.

    I'm going to interpret that to mean that method is a means to an end.
    Right?

    Lifestyle is a way of life. An amalgam of methodologies that make up your life.

    The goal of your lifestyle is that which you value.

    The values which you seek to achieve with your lifestyle are adopted by various means.

    In the form of nihilism which I mentioned earlier and which you lauded with "well said", these values are chosen by a careful examination of yourself and your place in your environment. (The emphasis on self wasn't brought up until later. I'm not trying to put words into your mouth. That's your methodology. I have no idea if it's your lifestyle or not.)

    The method of choosing values in your original post was clearly stated as the negation of all inherent values. Thus, you simply take existing values and invert them. This is how you choose your values.

    If you do this on a long-term basis, that is you live your life under a nihilist methodology, then your lifestyle is one that is shaped by the negation of the values which existed prior to your negating them.

    Therefore, you are shaped by those values which you deny.

    Therefore you are dependent upon those prior values.

    A slave.

    Get it yet?

    (By the way. This thing you have cooked up about lifestyle and methodology? That's a red herring. Good try.)

    What two terms?



    By the way, you're not too bright so I'll let you know that there's a post you missed back on the first page. I know you never go back to review what was said and all. You just kinda randomly hop around.


    And. I'm tired of talking to you. Unless you get your shit together, I will not respond to your posts anymore tonight.

    Following the fight response, we now witnesss the flight response. Is this an example of your personal "nihilist lifestyle" (LOL) or just the behaviour of a parasite?

    You're stupid.

    Observe.

    Habit.
    A habit is something that is engaged in on a regular basis. Something that becomes second nature. A methodology of examining oneself and one's environment and one's values should be second nature. Should be habit. Especially to one who considers himself a nihillist. Someone who engages in the nihilistic method on a regular basis. On enough of a regular basis that it becomes ingrained.
    It is this point I addressed when I mentioned question nihilism itself.

    Attitude.
    The methodology of nihilism is an attitude towards your value-system. It is a perspective by which you examine your values. By which your choose your values. And thus choose your goals and blah blah blah.

    Tastes.
    Taste is another method of sorting values.
    In a nihilist, he should have overcome his emotional sorting of values and therefore his 'taste' should be his method.


    Moral standards. Also values. But also implying the method itself. Morals are the values. Standards are the means by which the morals are sorted.
    Method.

    Etc.
    Etc. is a big fucking playground. Lot's of room in that little old word.



    Now. How about we go down and look at some of the definitions on the page?

    "A way of life or style of living that reflects the attitudes and values of a person or group: “It was a millionaire's lifestyle on the pocketbook of a hairdresser” (People)."

    "A way of life or style of living that reflects the attitudes and values of a person or group."

    A way of life reflecting values.
    How does a way of life reflect values?

    What does the methodology of nihilism do?
    Sort values.

    What does reflection of values do?
    It displays values.

    What does the methodology of nihilism do?
    It displays values.


    Wow.
    That like totally blew my fucking mind, dude.
    Thinking roxxorz.


    Lots of brain work for a red herring anyway.


    You, my retarded friend, are too fucking funny. (Look. I just emulated your earlier "you amuse me" skit.)

    You've done nothing in here.

    Nothing.

    You've addressed nothing.

    You've said nothing.

    You've just waved your arms about.

    Nothing.

    I guess you are a nihilist.

    Slave.


    Alright.
    I'm really out this time.
    You're just too... little.

    This is always interesting as well.

    We.

    Got a mouse in your pocket? Nice to belong to a group, eh? Nice to speak for others and have them speak for you? Strength in numbers? Strength in unity?

    Nihilism and the group.

    There's an idea for a thread. I find the idea of a group-nihilist most disgusting.


    How does this group-think of yours equate with the disgust for democracy which you spewed forth earlier?

    Is there a king in your group? Is your method a diktat?
    Your ruler should drill you in his ideas better. You have no idea what he's talking about. You just mouth the pretty words.

    All hail the conquering heroes of the american nihilist undergrouns society.

    The conquering and heroic anus.

    Hail them. Hail the ruler of anus. Hail his big brown eye. Hail.

    Heh.

    It's not even really fun mocking you because you're like a 5 year old kid or something.

    I doubt I'll be back... Nah. Who am I kidding? I like kicking you around. It's been fun. Too much of a good thing isn't the order of the day though. I should keep it down to discrete doses.

    Bye bye baby. Say hello to your king.
