Make no mistake building my knowledge & skills this far has been tough; the fun part's just starting. I hang out on WP because I'm frequently tapped to help build addictive things & I strongly prefer just being helpful.

The word person comes from the Latin persona, meaning an actor's mask or a character in a play.
To be a person means putting on a mask and playing a part.
So to be a real person is to be a genuine fake, no?

The true definition of 'self' is 'other'.

^^^that reminds me of an old groucho quote, "The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing. If you can fake that, you've got it made."

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
Even lemonade is fake now.
No lemons required.

God is possibly the biggest lemon there is.

I don't know who Ted Cruz is, so I can't give an opinion on that.

The funny thing is, Ted Cruz probably doesn't know who he is either.
Few people do.

a**holes are necessary.
Without a**holes, how would we identify someone who's lovely?
Life needs polarity.

Only a-holes are allowed to run for political office...it's in the rule book, right before "must never actually answer a question."
