The.

Try not to spell out those three letter together in one posting day, and you'll see what I mean.
 
You are absolutely right BB..

That and also a word known as “I.”

Try to not type either of those words..not to refer to yourself at all.

Interesting…



Side note:
As an exercise Crowley sliced a tiny cut into his arm every time he referred to himself…
A little extreme perhaps..but it is a lesson learned in letting go of ones own ego entirely.
 
Schadenfreude :D

Seriously, I'd like to nominate "irony." We know it when we see it, but just try to DEFINE it adequately.
 
Love is indeed very complex..

Have you ever loved two people the same way..ever?

That's not about words, or English, seXieleXie. You've name the single most complex life-form in creation. Ask a biologist about diploid genetics, then ponder the differences between having and X and a Y chromosome versus having double Xs.

Challenge Taken.

That title? It's suits me well, or so some say. ;)

The Y chromosome is a genetic defect.

Remiss not to do it with you..then.
Think we will remain as eloquently worded?


..and your writing conveys something quite opposite from your title..

Ah, these two fine "eyes" can but try. :)

Which part? Or both? ;)
 
If you want to see what’s complex and how you are all part of it work your way through this http://www.calresco.org/action.htm


Dhalgren, what’s the problem with “I”? For every ego-centric pratt around there are dozens of great people who won’t say “I” – for many complex reasons. There seem to me to be more people who are unsure of their identity, of their existence, of their right to be just who they are, to affirm themselves and basically, to be happy in being themselves – than there are of genuinely ego-centric pricks (m or f).

It’s a good exercise not to use the first person – but is’a also a good exercise to use it – try not ever talking about other people except in terms of how they affect you and what it awakens in you when someone behaves towards you – positively, negatively or neutrally.
aye aye
 
Perhaps "Zero" or "nothing" is a plausible choice. Afterall in many cultures and some of the most advanced societies in history did not recognize the existance of absolute nothing. Even when you think "nothing" is there, there is always something, right?
