It's also why people don't actually communicate anymore except in memes, buzzwords, half thoughts, half utterances. Children aren't imbued with a wonder and appreciation for language as mysterious godlike engine of thought and expression like they once were during the time of Shakespeare, when children could write hexameters and would have memorized Virgilian bucolics before learning to tie their shoes. The school curriculum diversified to meet the demands of modernity and that taste for high language died along with it. The word cope is an interesting example. It takes absolutely no intelligence or wit or imagination to respond with cope, but the word itself means quite a lot, just as much as what someone 200 years ago would have said in much fuller language to express the same idea. The point is that the word is short, blunt, soulless, one-dimensional, efficient, in a word, modern. Moderns are like musicians who are completely incapable of writing variations on a theme and can only repeat the theme over and over again ad nauseum. No inventio, no substance, no thought, just the same mind numbding sound bites over and over. In 50 years I don't doubt that we will probably have dispensed with language entirely and will communicate exclusively in grunts. Everything comes full circle. We are turning back into cavemen in our sexual ethics, in our mores, and above all in our language.

I did a few times and it felt great. One of them used to bully one of my good friends for being short, and would quite literally say that his opinion wasn't important because he was a white male, I shit you not. Eventually he snapped after one too many shit takes, berated her for being emotionally instable and incompetent, and then she simply burst into tears and ran from the classroom, was a sight to behold. High schools are full of insane cunts like this.

I have talked to a lot of women, I just can't find something interesting in them, when you talk to a common woman they will end up talking about trivial shit in their lives, and when you talk to bitches in academia they will start saying nonsense and most of the time, the retarded shit they learn, all those french philosopher names they spout when they talk, all that stuff, is something they use to make themselves feel worthy, literally one time, a bitch told me that if she talked about philosophy with a fucking pseud she liked she could end up having sex with him, once even one of them told me I liked her but i'm too autistic and I always have hated whores that I told her I was sick and had to leave

Good Christ that is really nifty. I could think of a good few uses for something like that.
