The American Dream

Why do you ask questions to which you already know the answers?

siamanto,
Just curious! why do people ask dumb questions?

It's a form of compassion, so you won't feel bad about your handicap and all by yourself! LOL!


ExtraHye,
I like yours too! Thanks!

Anonymouse,
Just curious! What's the Mousepolitan Dream? Please no cheesy replies!
Also, how come the population did not grow since it's foundation?
One last question, is one the members single or in a menage a trois?

Thanks!

The Mouseopolitan Dream is to make as many posts as possible. Now, because posting is an extremely enduring and demanding task, not many people are up to the rigorous challenges of foruming. You see, most of the lemmings are simply content with having a social life, but the truly adept Mouseopolian is beyond that. There is mouse and there is supermouse, and I preach to the overmouse that he shall conquer mice! That, my French speaking sex inquirer is the reason for the lack of population growth.

The Soviet Dream was the best.

You just asked one! Why did you?

PS. I was looking for a self-referencing interrogative statement? Thank you!

First of all, thank you for an ingenious reply! However, I wouldn't call it a dream! A Mousepolitan is presented as an übermensch but does an übermensch have a dream?

My understanding is that your emphasis is on the act, the situation . That is entirely understandable from an existentialist and situationist point of view where what matters is to act and where the goal or purpose of the act is - at best - secondary and often ignored.
A dream is a goal and is forward looking i.e. is materialized in the future. The act, materialized as a situation, happens in the present. Using an existentialist jargon, a goal is a "being" and atemporal - "etre" in French - while the act is an "etant" and temporal - I don't know the English translation, maybe you do.

That, my French speaking sex inquirer is the reason for the lack of population growth.

It's not about sex, it's about mating. In my view, mating is the ultimate goal of Nature, at least when it comes to the animal reign. Aren't we genetically programmed to mate? Sex is the degenerate form of mating; making love is a mere sublimation of sex! Mating is the highest form of animal affection, sex is only the pursuit of pleasure.

You're reading too much into Heideggerian and Sartrean existentialism for the übermaus. The end point is serenity in a superior post count.
