THE THREE SIEVES OF SOCRATES
One day, the old wise Socrates walks down the streets, when all of the sudden a man runs up to him "Socrates I have to tell you something about your friend who..." "Hold up" Socrates interrupts him "About the story you're about to tell me, did you put it trough the three sieves?" "Three sieves?" The man asks "What three sieves?" "Let's try it" Socrates says. "The first sieve is the one of truth, did you examine what you were about to tell me if it is true?" Socrates asks. "Well no, I just overheard it" The man says. "Ah, well then you have used the second sieve, the sieve of good?" Socrates asks "Is it something good what you're about to tell me?" "Ehm no, on the contrary" the man answers. "Hmmm" The wise man says "Let's use the third sieve then, is it necessary to tell me what you're so exited about?" "Well, not exactly necessary" the man says. "Well" Socrates says with a smile "If the story you're about to tell me isn't true, good or necessary, just forget it and bother neither me nor yourself with it." |

Well, although I'm generally a jaded person, this article brought a slight smile to my face.
http://www.herald.ie/news/rabbit-riv...b-2814016.html tl;dr version: Homeless man who loves animals has rabbit. 18-yo punk walks by, grabs rabbit, throws it off a bridge. Homeless man jumps off bridge, saves rabbit, treated like a hero, offered a job. Punk is going to court to face charges. |

...this thread.
Wow. I'd been browsing through it with black thoughts; so many worries in life out to get me, reality sucks, what's the point to everything.. but this really made my day. The things here are truly amazing. Just wanted to say thanks. Might be random posts for you, but it reminded me that there are some things still worth fighting for. We keep moving.

^ pretty cat.
all wallies edited by Xefizyxen "look mommy! i'm a pretty CAT!" Spoiler:
"in Xefizyxen's World, you can always start over if you die. i guess that's a positive thing...so pick your path and opponents carefully. also, if you run into Queen Xefi in the Alternate Ending Story Arc, just say "that garden will never be lost" and she'll accept you as her ally. if not, you're dead. on the contrary, if you run into The Xefi Unit or Ultimate Silver, just run for your life!!! nya ha haa! " Spoiler:
Merry Christmas!!! (oh wait, this was last year...) Spoiler:
