@FireWalkWithMe,
One subject suggested this name. The subject here/now asked that subject, 'what is a good userID name for a character to study Anti-Oedipus?' That subject suggested Readerer. But this subject is not the agglutinative Readerer, who you may meet, very directly, later: so reader.

Have you seen the movie The Reader (with Kate Winslet)...it was quite good!

My username comes from a David Lynch film called Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me

That subtitle really stuck with me. Someone mistaked it to mean:

Firewalk with me. But I think it was meant like this, or at least this is how I took it:

Fire, walk with me.

The latter is more haunting.


This is late to reply, but I have just arrived, excuse me.

Even with my myopia afflicted eyesight, I could have spotted this user name and its implications a mile away.

I would safely assume your interpretation of emphasis is correct... "Fire, walk with me." It is clearly expressed as this, several times throughout the second season.

Love the name.

The name Anais is not so obscurely a nod to Anais Nin, one could say I was a fan of her writing and persona.

It also happens to be a only slightly shortened anagram of my actual name, and fairly close to my "nick-name"...

Well not the most interesting...but there you have it

@PhilosophyForum,
Better late than later. Ongbak 1 is a movie from Thailand which defines culture, tradition and Buddhism beliefs. I used this name even if I am not a Thai because it was the first movie I watch about Thailand. Well, it does really kick ass just in movie only! Yet, my name would be like searching for answers which often times bothered me.

Thank you. I'm glad I didn't take the title the wrong way (that would have been embarrassing!)

I too like your name. I have two of her books (that I've yet to really read in their entirety: Fire and Incest) :Glasses:

Hi all?

Why?

X1 is allegedly a black hole in the constellation Cygnus... yet more importantly it is a song by Canadian prog rockers - Rush (perhaps the greatest band in the Universe accepting our limited human knowledge of the Universe that is).

... as I have an interest in.... you guessed it - philosophies, and I have a few questions!
Hope to explore these with you soon?

I have mine from the God.
The God decided our destinies. Fates are in our hands.

ACADEMIC FREEDOM has been destroyed by censorships of websites and abuses of forum rules.

All my academic achievements have been destroyed by the adminstrators and moderators in some forums who are actually Professors in real world. To safeguard their priviledges, I have no channels to publish my findings.

1. The Bible
Chapters are divided by time with regards to different calendars. Rearrange the orders and must read them with history.

2. The Lighters' Effects & my related concepts in ecology
Ocean currents act as lighter to warm up the sea.
Multiplying effects on Global warming.

3. Infinity in Mathematics
I solved it in a mathematical way. See the "Solution to 'Infinity' in Mathematics. Applying the concept of timeline is acceptable in maths.

4. My hypothesis of the "Planets are Living Things".
It is also a scientific proof of the God that can be proved by sciences.
Please kindly read through all my theories.

5. Psychological Therapies
I pointed out that "No Objects & Subjects are equals".
Psychological therapies are INVALID.
All psychologists know that. They did not hide it, but seems to be intended to.

I hope I will not be banned by this web site because of this post.
Academic Freedom in the United Kingdom have to be respected.

Thanks in advances.

Well when you start paying the bills and hosting a forum, then you are free to censor whatever you'd like. As for this forum we do not censor but if I remember correctly, you recently opened an account called Terry Wong and were banned for opening 23 threads in a single day. Simply copying and pasting stuff you'd spilled all over the internet. Sorry, this sort of thing is not allowed on this forum. There are plenty of forums you are free to spam, this isn't one of them.

Your message may actually be a decent one, it's too bad you have chosen a poor method of communicating it by bombarding forums all over the internet.

Actually, you were contacted about this as well and I offered you to place your 'academic achievements' in your blog which we've graciously provided on this forum. This would be a good way for you to organize them into folders or categories and share them with others. Instead of contacting me back via PM, you chose to start 10 more threads.

@Justin,
Justin i wonder if it might be possible to have a nutters club,where those banned could hibernate to and we could observe them in silence.I just hope i can control my fingers from pointing me there.
You dont meet these souls in real life and the experience of their intensity is somewhat unreal.I wonder should you,we, accommodate them in some way? as an exercise in confronting their excesses.I know rules must be applied for sanity sake but i just wonder, no forget it Justin, just musing.. another glass of red wine should cure me..

That's actually in the works. It's going to be called the Trash Can and will only be viewable by paying members of the forum... We're implementing this asap. However, they will not be able to continue posting at all.

If any member should come in here and start posting threads and copying and pasting their crap here and are banned for some reason or another... usually spam, if they are sincere in wanting to be involved here, then they will have to make an effort to contact me and resolve the issue and have a clear understanding of what's allowed and what's not.

This member, as I remember correctly, opened roughly 30 threads within a 24 hour period, (all of which have been deleted) and this added 30 new tweets to our twitter profile, which is also spammy and those to have to be deleted. So it's a process. We'll get a trash can together soon.

@vincubus,
My name is the result of me being an anime fan and at the time it was created, of one anime in particular; Inuyasha. I was wanting something unique that no one else would have so that I could use it for just about everything and not have to keep up with half a dozen nicknames when I join forums and stuff. A friend of mine came up with it and told me that it roughly translates to Inu's girl. Razz Cheesy, I know but it fit my needs and I've never signed up for anything using it and had to worry about it already being taken. My other name I go by (which was already taken when I signed up here) is Kratos. I chose it because of my love of Greek mythology and the game the character Kratos comes from called God of War. Smile

Hmm...

It's been a while. If my rusty memory serves true, I believe it was a combination of a old display picture I had(in which a variety of images were rapidly spun at the viewer over and over), my fascination with the symbolic nature of masks, and the different aspects I, and everyone else, hold.
