How can I become part of a Zeitgeist?

If you want to be part of the new postmodern pop Zeitgeist, what better way to create a new, "Urban feel" erotic story than to follow the Hip-Hoppers example of using samples.

Got me thinking: I'm not sure I've ever belonged to a Zeitgeist. How can I find out? Does it have to be a current Zeitgeist? I'm not sure the new postmodern one is something I want to commit to.

I don't think you can join a Zeitgeist. I think you have to be part of the starting group.

A Zeitgeist isnt a joining type thing, its a be, its a do-what, its something you feel when you cant cant say how it is in the now. Its what makes you wake up in the morning and say to youself,

"Hey, today I'm going to lie under glass with a pin through my abdomen as piece of living art. The caption will read 'I'm not the butterfy: Are YOU the butterfly?"

Thats my opinion. IMHO.

Ahem. (Or "Achtung," if you'd rather.) It was through my sternum, not my abdomen. I was draped with transparent plastic sheeting. And the caption is copyright protected. Our attorneys can discuss that later.

Back to the Zeitgeist:

What I think you're saying is that one would need to be not only a crazy mo'fo but pleased to be so unlike the other inmates. Is that the gist of it?

PS. Yes, I do know what I've just said.

I'll ask...so what did you just say?

Ich bin heiBe - the words literally translate (taken one at a time) to I - am - hot. However to say that you are temperaturely overenthusiastic in German requires saying 'I have hot' - Ich habe heiBe. Saying 'I am hot' means that you're very horny.

This is why German people snigger if they hear tourists talking about "Ich bin sehr heiBe. I muBe meinen Hemd entfernen." (I am so horny. I must remove my shirt).
