I just had to share...

Post by Kaks »

I tried to warp my brain around this, but it keeps giggling:

http://chairofwisdom.cubicao.com/

there's an insane amount of text found at

http://www.cubicao.com/

about the whole 'cubicism' concept/theory/world conspiracy etc... and the mind just boggles... I wish I had that amount of free time! ;)

Whoa! I attempted to check out the site but I had to stop soon after, when I realized that grey matter had started running out of my ears.

My opinion as a scientist and presumably serious human being, after seeing that stuff, is:
LOL WTF.

Yes, brain-melting stuff... :D

I had a look at the timecube site they apparently took inspiration from, but the writing there is even less coherent... :D

What is this????

Either it is supposed to be a mockery of scientology et al., or this guy lives in a parallel universe I haven't got the key to...

The only reason I'm not reading any further into that site is that I'm afraid my inital reaction of "Poe!" may gradually unravel. When he starts quoting the principles of logic in his "proof" and the Law of Opposites - part of me starts to think he may be serious.

It appears to be a spoof of the infamous Time Cube.

Indeed, the stream-of-consciousness stuff in the time cube site is almost too much for this one brain, luckily the cubicao site provides more easily undigestible chunks of 'wisdom'! :)

I'm almost tempted to write to 'Dr.' Gene Ray: amongst all the other stuff, he singularily fails to mention that human brains are composed of two hemispheres, something that would probably complete his time cube theory. ( I was just skimming the text & kept having giggling fits, so he might have mentioned it somewhere already ) :P

Apologies to anybody who might have thought this was in any way serious. The amount of confusion in one brain to generate that thing is absolutely staggering though, probably the main reason the MIT allowed mr Ray to 'lecture' there in 2002:

Now I am, I have to admit it, a little bit afraid.

Could we have cubic planets then? The space sims are all wrong ... including Oolite.

Even reading (no, reading would be the wrong verb; problem is, I don't know what the right verb would be :? ) this I am constantly wondering whether this is a very elaborate hoax, or whether there is a very tormented mind somewhere out there who actually thinks he is producing coherent stuff on that site? :?: :?: :?:

For a start the constant use of large letters in boldface seems to indicate an impairment in judgement, an inability to distinguish between important and unimportant.

Anyway, the whole thing is a serious case of this, and may need the application of this.

Any old mentalist can type. Seriously we've made it easy for monosylabic mind farts to guff up the internet with their fowl smelling lint.

Every keyboard has the letters printed on them, making it easy for these people to brush away the minature elephants and vomit their brain rot all over the servers. Spelling and grammar checkers sift and rationalise their thick knuckle typing into vaguely structures sentances.

We only see their output so we can't see that it's being typed by a madman who hasn't washed in 6 months, is drowning in take away food packets and is in the process of pulling out all his teeth because they're disagreeing with him.

I'm with William Burrows on this one;

"Do not offer sympathy to the mentally ill, tell them firmly; I'm not being paid to listen to this drivel. You, are a terminal Fool."
