I laughed way more than I should have. OT: Blister packaging. Fuck anything that was ever put in a blister pack. Should be called "lacerating" packaging seeing as all it takes is one slip in the blink of an eye to expose white meat and sometimes bone on an overly enthusiastic package opener.

:o I read the topic; I really can only blame myself for being here...

You are welcome to believe as you like, and you’re certainly fortunate to have the conviction that you do if it satisfies and fulfills you, but that’s circular reasoning; you believe the Bible’s word because you have the Bible? The first step in your logical process assumes the miracles of...

I’m NOT saying that’s not possible; I’m saying I don’t know, that I don’t believe anyone “knows,” and that I personally could not sign up for a faith that assumes that’s the case without allowing for interpretation and mandates that I simply believe the literal words to call myself “one of the...

Oh, I’m entirely with you that the answer is probably more mundane than divine. One possible answer I had was that the plot was so same-y and unremarkable that one need not even speak the language to understand it!

I believe that qualifies as Agnostic which is also how I qualify my beliefs. And that's not really a fair question; you're prescribing objective truth to your faith's text which doesn't really leave room for an answer you'd ever find remotely reasonable. The text exist; this is true, but by...

This was over 20 years ago so I don't recall the details, but yes, I understood what I was hearing; I knew character names, I'd been following the plot, etc. It's hard to explain, but it was a passive "understanding," like when you overhear people talking in a restaurant without...

When I was in high school, I was up late one night doing some homework and had the TV on some random channel for some background noise. I don't know what movie was playing (never really even looked at the screen,) but I was listening to the gist of the story as it was interesting enough. After...

Oh my God, I can hear BOTH now! I literally hear “Laurel” in a deep male voice and “Yanny” in a nasally, impish voice at the same time and/or interchangeably! What kind witchcraft is this?

I hear Laurel. Anything else is insanity.

My girlfriend was raised JW, but stopped practicing at around 19 years of age when she left home. It was hard for her because her mother converted the family (her, her older sister and her younger brother and sister) when they were between the ages of 6 and 13, so they have vivid memories of...

Thanks; good be here! I was never a "premium" Escapist, and as such, never privy to the basement I presume you're referring to (WW?) and I was ok with that, but I'll admit a bit of morbid curiosity. I'll likely peek in at some point, just to see what all the hype and horror was all about.

Thanks for the welcome! And a "sklounst" is similar to a clavical, particularly those on which one might go hypothetical. (Lol, goolgle "Key and Peele Terries.")

Hello, all. Just finding some stable ground to latch onto as The Escapist seems to be limping towards the grave.
