this sunday i got pretty baked-and in what has become a ritual of sorts, I went to take a shower. taking a shower while while gives the sensation of falling, or flying - or both. and since the wife hates the smell of combustion, it makes everyone happy. any how, during this shower I had a couple of "bright" ideas - one of which was an argument between a painter and an animator. i forget most of the points - because when i came out to share my thoughts - she just laughed and laughed, because she was watching Family Guy and they had just had that on - an argument between a painter and an animator. I've been trying to make reason out of this - 1. i couldn't hear the tv in the shower, due to the running water, shut door, and the fan being on. I always use the fan while in the bathroom, as it blocks all outside noise out. 2. i have never seen this eposide - and I did not realize she was watching tv when i came in from the garage. so its not like i created the re-run in my head. 3. i think i carried the idea a little further - as i think the argument was the answer to alternatie universes. In the painters mind what matters is the specific slice in time they have decided to share. all other moments are non existant. there is a thought going around that every decision creates two alternate universes, this has always caused me problems simply because of the exponential amount of time-spaces that would exist. According to the painter, there are no alternate universes, there is no universe, only this one moment in time. Every decision made does create a universe, but it also destroys a universe. The animator must draw the seconds between the important moments, but all they are really doing is mapping the creation and destruction of the binary tree - a binary tree that feeds into itself. I would have wrote this down at the time of thought, but becuase the wife told me that it was on Family Guy, I was pretty bummed. but I have not came up with a satisfying answer to why i would be thinking about family guy while high in the shower.
thanks - i never considered that tard idea. i should explore your idea more, but the very notion that i'd explore it sorta debunks it. do tards realize they're tards?
