Name a quote you like that was spoken by a person you don't like.

"You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality." -Ayn Rand

I hate almost everything about Rand but that quote is a true winner.

@CrustyDDingus When you remember to say "no homo."

@BlueMetalChick That smile kinda says "Homo in that asshole", no homo ofc.

"A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely". - Roald Dahl I don't agree with it much bits it's not bad.

@BlueMetalChick Some people are into anthills... especially with fire ants 😂 or worse, army ants.

@BlueMetalChick don't worry, I understand.

I am just educating @sSibe based on my personal experience.
@Prisoner69 thank you Sensei, teach me more

To make an embarrassing admission, I like video games. That's what got me into software engineering when I was a kid. I wanted to make money so I could buy a better computer to play better video games - nothing like saving the world. - ELON MUSK

@BlueMetalChick so being a finance guy, I like bets.

If elon musk and his companies crash and burn in the next five years, will you suck my dick?
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@Prisoner69 Well seeing as how I'm pretty much sexually inert, that wouldn't be such a bad thing lol.
Prisoner69 · 26-30, M
@BlueMetalChick ok we have a bet. Good.

“Do not compare yourself to others. If you do so, you are insulting yourself.”

@melovemycats Wow. I never heard that one before but I like it!

This one's also by Ayn Rand and it tends to be just as "controversial" as she is.

“Ask anything of men. Ask them to achieve wealth, fame, love, brutality, murder, self-sacrifice. But don't ask them to achieve self-respect. They will hate your soul."
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@LucyFuhr That's scarily accurate. Although she's the last person who should be saying it.
LucyFuhr · 56-60, F
@BlueMetalChick I know right?
Regardless of how much of an impact her words have on me, it all goes to sh*t when I consider the source LOL

@LucyFuhr Ms. "Welfare is a scourge on humanity" but is collecting welfare checks for 30 years from a secret PO box.

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” - C.S. Lewis
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@SW-User I have very mixed opinions of C.S. Lewis. His conversion to religion based on what he called rationality is the biggest thing that makes it difficult to like him.
SW-User
@BlueMetalChick yeah that shit makes no sense to me at all and he was such a dick about it too. It's annoying because I'd waste his ass in a face-to-face conversation.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@SW-User He was undeniably intelligent, his writing makes that clear, but even the smartest people sometimes have no sense at all.

And you're right, he had to make it super public and in your face that he was religious.
FurryFace · 61-69, M
i hated the quotes from the 18th century on Criminal Minds at the end of the show , making them sound smarter than they Actually were , but one i liked was from the Cat in the Hat , There's no one Youer than You !
FurryFace · 61-69, M
@BlueMetalChick oh ok thats great BlueMetalChick Pedia , lol
FurryFace · 61-69, M
@BlueMetalChick hey there's a BlueMetalDude on here too , lol
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@FurryFace Yeah, he was originally trying to make fun of me but now we're tepid friends.

I looked up a few popular figures I loathe like Churchill or Musk or whatever and honestly their quotes are all dribbling bullshit that just come down to "Try hard and be optimistic and don't take no for an answer!"

So there's probably some, but fuck it. They suck.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@CountScrofula That's just my point though, he did the right things for the wrong reasons. It's called the Golding special maneuver. It turned out to be the winning move from a historical standpoint but he did it for the improper causes.
CountScrofula · 41-45, M
@BlueMetalChick Maybe we need to break down what admire means before I go a-ranting.

Like, what makes him admirable while someone like Elon Musk is not admirable? They're both super successful men, and Elno Musk is a liar and con artist which are traits I assumed you had some respect for.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@CountScrofula The difference is, despite them both being shitheads, Churchill managed to stay on the right side of the fence (by accident) while Musk has not. Musk has actively set up back. He's made the situation worse. Churchill looked up to the wrong people, the example you gave of Mussolini was excellent, but his insistence on fighting the Nazis as opposed to make peace with them, even if driven from the wrong side of the moral spectrum, turned out to be the right thing to do. As where Musk's groveling before the military industrial complex in exchange for his big money contract has severed the head of space exploration and will prevent us from being successful now.
the glow of one warm thought is to me worth more than money.

"make America great again" *waits for hate*
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@Footballstar Well I agree with the premise that America ain't great no more. But the guy who said it is helping to make sure that doesn't change.
