And you are basing this on extensive non-reading of poetry? *NM* Camilla Send a noteboard - 09/11/2010 08:57:06 PM

This is why people dislike you. Dan - 09/11/2010 07:03:17 PM 937 Views
Umm...I care? Larry - 09/11/2010 08:42:55 PM 912 Views
Because you should care about being intelligent, rather than appearing to be intelligent. Dan - 09/11/2010 10:32:04 PM 949 Views
Again, why would I care? Larry - 09/11/2010 10:38:21 PM 965 Views
No one can make you care about being decent, or intelligent, or a viable member of the community. Dan - 09/11/2010 10:41:34 PM 868 Views
I think it's rather pointless, to be honest. Larry - 09/11/2010 10:54:17 PM 900 Views
Then why are you even here? Dan - 09/11/2010 10:59:49 PM 844 Views
I don't know. I thought I'd see how long I could string you along. Larry - 09/11/2010 11:00:37 PM 779 Views
You're the one who doesn't care. Dan - 09/11/2010 11:02:11 PM 822 Views
I care only as much as I care. What others think is irrelevant to that. Larry - 09/11/2010 11:04:15 PM 836 Views
But you're still responding to me. Dan - 09/11/2010 11:05:37 PM 869 Views
Because I'm stringing you out until you quit. Larry - 09/11/2010 11:10:18 PM 946 Views
I'm not going to. I find this entertaining. Dan - 09/11/2010 11:12:27 PM 864 Views
I do as well. It's fun pretending to be an asshole, I'll admit. Larry - 09/11/2010 11:17:34 PM 860 Views
Come now, who's pretending? Dan - 09/11/2010 11:22:18 PM 882 Views
That is officially the last one before I start editing and making them NM. *NM* Legolas - 09/11/2010 11:24:12 PM 410 Views
Word. *NM* *NM* Dan - 09/11/2010 11:29:37 PM 332 Views
Me, most of the time Larry - 09/11/2010 11:40:26 PM 869 Views
Keep telling yourself that. *NM* Dan - 09/11/2010 11:46:34 PM 743 Views
Why would I? It's not something I think much about these days. Again, what others think is trivial. *NM* Larry - 10/11/2010 12:01:03 AM 449 Views
What about THE Other? *NM* Dan - 10/11/2010 12:16:53 AM 368 Views
I'm not going to quote Sartre here...this time. *NM* Larry - 10/11/2010 12:20:22 AM 373 Views
Are you 5? Camilla - 09/11/2010 11:14:26 PM 733 Views
See my original point. *NM* Dan - 09/11/2010 11:15:30 PM 368 Views
Nah Larry - 09/11/2010 11:15:48 PM 997 Views
But you were asked about it originally. That was my point. Dan - 09/11/2010 11:23:25 PM 785 Views
And I was evasive about it at the time. When pressed, I answered more fully. Larry - 09/11/2010 11:48:27 PM 884 Views
Why be evasive? Dan - 10/11/2010 12:16:19 AM 977 Views
Because I didn't want to spend an hour pulling out a few dozen books. Larry - 10/11/2010 12:19:55 AM 989 Views
Ye gods. Could you people at the very, very least make your messages NM? Legolas - 09/11/2010 11:17:25 PM 853 Views
But that takes the fun out of this! *NM* Larry - 09/11/2010 11:21:25 PM 410 Views
Re: Best one liner of the threadjack. Gaps - 10/11/2010 12:37:27 AM 975 Views
I must say, I'm glad you all decided to play up when I was having an evening off. *NM* Rebekah - 10/11/2010 12:08:59 PM 404 Views
I disagree with your claim that there can be no value in translations. Camilla - 09/11/2010 08:51:20 PM 849 Views
Not "no value", but "different value" is what I would argue Larry - 09/11/2010 09:55:54 PM 925 Views
I don't disagree, but you can't possibly learn all languages, yet you can read translations of all. Legolas - 09/11/2010 10:56:58 PM 949 Views
They are often necessary Larry - 09/11/2010 11:00:09 PM 832 Views
My choice, hands down, is to ignore the poetry in languages I don't read. Tom - 10/11/2010 01:44:32 AM 870 Views
An English translation of The Divine Comedy was pivotal to my conversion to Christianity. Joel - 10/11/2010 11:04:57 AM 786 Views
Dante has a lot to answer for. *NM* Camilla - 10/11/2010 08:21:19 PM 367 Views
Ah, but to whom...? Joel - 10/11/2010 09:17:16 PM 829 Views

Nothing wrong with humorous redundancy! Ghavrel - 09/11/2010 01:10:02 AM 875 Views
Ooh, good survey. I've been thinking for a while we needed more poetry discussion. Legolas - 08/11/2010 10:58:24 AM 1018 Views
I think you underestimate the number of translations of the Bible. Ghavrel - 09/11/2010 01:20:30 AM 1005 Views
Did they just translate logos as... life-light? Dan - 09/11/2010 07:14:28 PM 874 Views
Yes. Yes, they did. *NM* Ghavrel - 09/11/2010 09:56:09 PM 337 Views
*sighs* Dan - 09/11/2010 10:28:49 PM 751 Views
My favourite translation of logos is "point of it all". (beat.) - 10/11/2010 05:12:05 PM 1141 Views

I can count the poems I enjoy on one hand. Two fingers, in fact. lord-of-shadow - 08/11/2010 06:05:22 PM 917 Views
I think poetry is largely overrated. Palatine - 08/11/2010 06:12:59 PM 988 Views
And you are basing this on extensive non-reading of poetry? *NM* Camilla - 09/11/2010 08:57:06 PM 311 Views
Basing what, exactly? But the short answer is, no. Palatine - 10/11/2010 05:48:28 PM 921 Views
the problem is most good poets are dead and dead people tend to fail at marketing random thoughts - 08/11/2010 06:44:18 PM 931 Views
Re: Poetry: Stephen - 08/11/2010 07:04:01 PM 857 Views
I like some poetry, but by no means all. Camilla - 09/11/2010 12:28:41 AM 1006 Views
Now that you mention it, The Imperfect Enjoyment might rank among my favourite poems. *NM* Legolas - 09/11/2010 12:46:56 AM 363 Views
It is excellent Camilla - 09/11/2010 08:16:01 PM 1033 Views

Just remembered my favourite poem Stephen - 09/11/2010 10:50:03 PM 960 Views
That is very nice *NM* Camilla - 09/11/2010 10:59:53 PM 461 Views

I can't believe I forgot to mention Leonard Cohen. *NM* (beat.) - 12/11/2010 04:33:15 AM 356 Views
