And we like to call people REALLY fascinated by how special everything autistic. Be thankful the world isn't that interesting.

Pretty sure that's the opposite. People with autism tend to be fascinated with very, very few things.

Unless you are trying to postulate that we are all chemical accidents in a dead and meaningless universe.

Do you have a serious argument against this idea?

Yeah I'm sure I'm way off the mark with a clinical definition. I'm just thinking of the kids that I've done volunteer work with who get this complete zenned out, zeroed in focus on a shiny object or toy. Most people's brains can filter out stimuli and keep the mundane pretty mundane. I'm just glad I can walk out my door without getting a profound sense of awe from looking at the door knob.

but you get a profound sense of awe from the mundane pixels you haven't looted on an ancient dead game revived by corrupt contributors that get their profound sense of awe from what little power they have over a very small population.

talk about "zenned" out and "zeroed" in focus on a shiny object, toy, or in this case "game."

proves my point - thank you.

ITT: Apathetic philistines think they can grasp the infinite complexity of life with the perceptions gleaned by the naked eye.

Everything is the same. At the atomic level we are built by the same exact building blocks. The only difference is how they are lumped together. You need to move beyond your senses and use your mind.

No I don't like this game very much.

if thinking everything is the same helps you sleep at night by all means.

A closed mind is like a closed book;
just a block of wood.

No need to think it. it is the reality we live in.

I don't like the forum game very much either. EQ is kinda like a time machine for me. I can't imagine a better to fast forward a year you really don't want to experience.

You're probably a very nice person IRL.
