SueB BS: Is Everything Rubbish? (46) RE: BS: Is Everything Rubbish? 30 Apr 04


What are we talking about here?
Existentialism: Everything is what you make it. If it's
rubbish, it's your own damn fault.
Nihilism? Rubbish doesn't exist. You don't exist.
Relativism? My rubbish is better than your rubbish.
Solipsism? (I just learned this one here at the 'Cat.)
Rubbish is all you know. You are all you know. Therefore,
you are rubbish. (Did I get that right?)
Narcissism? You think your own 'rubbish' doesn't stink.
Ask EB White: One man's treasure is another man's rubbish.
Ask Dr. Freud: You are apparently stuck in that infantile
stage where you are obsessed with playing with your doodoo.
Ask the Enlightened Master: All things are one. Rubbish and
Not-Rubbish are one.
Ask the Buddhist monk: Be grateful for rubbish, as it affords
you the opportunity to grow spiritually.
