*chuckle*

I'm not sure there is much that makes sense on this thread.
Do not read the lyrics posted in post 66.
If you've heard the song, it will come flooding back into memory, take up residence, and refuse to leave.
;-)

That said, I will now go to the gist of this piece. So, where to begin?

Note to self: If on third paragraph of opus, and still trying to figure out where to begin, start over.

Chevelle - Closure


Breathe, trust, bless me and release,
Climb, hard or never be seen.
Closed off, rescue to breathe.
Just bless me.

Two sided time,
Your rebirth can't hurt,
Branch out behind, the pain.

Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me.
Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me.

Had to to turn, lay down,
Your sting of disease.
Phase you out, should've seen this coming.
Go on confusing the soul,
Hold my breath 'til you rupture.

Three days aside,
Your rebirth can't hurt,
Branch out behind, pride.

Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me.
Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me.

Like a leach,
I hold on as if we belonged,
To some precious pure dream.
Cast off, you've seen what's beneath,
Now fail me.

Forget closure,
Forget closure,
Forget closure,
Forget closure.

Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me.
Closure has come to me myself,
You will never belong to me.
So breathe.

Into Another - T.A.I.L.

It is a pity that she never sees
So many faces he hides from her
And he is as amphibious as they come
And as they come he iis promising her everything
Everything
Oh, if she only knew everything
And he thinks he is so pretty, but he never sees
His own reflection staring right back at him
The water's always rippling
Shimmering

And I won't see things his way
No, Idon't know him
I don't owe him anything

She loves him
He's not there
Amphibious
Everywhere
Everywhere

She wants to leave
And she wants to believe the countless lies he tells her
And she tells a few herself
But, let me say in her defense
She lies in self defense
It is a pity that she's never been to many places
He hides from her
He says he loves her
Yeah
He tells us all that
[yeah]

When she wakes uo
She'll leave
Leave
She's gonna leave him
Leave him

She loves him
He's not there
He is
Amphibious
Everywhere
Everywhere
Everywhere

It's not the mere fact that she's reptilian
Though you'd think that it would be
Wouldn't you?
It's in teh way he takes
The way she gives so willingly
As they've done all their lives

She loves him
He's not there
He is
Amphibious
Everywhere
You know she'll wait there
Or anywhere
And everywhere
Anywhere
Everywhere
Everywhere
Everywhere

H.I.M. - And Love Said No

Love's light blue led me to you
Through the emptiness that had become my home
Love's lies cruel introduced me to you
And that moment I knew I was out of hope

Kill me, I begged and love said "no"
Leave me for dead and let me go
Kill me, I cried and love said "no"
Kill me, I cried and love said "no"

Love's icy tomb dug open for you
Lies in cemetery that bears my name
Love's violent tune from me to you
Rips your heart out and leaves you bleeding
With a smile on your face
Kill me, I begged and love said "no"
Leave me for dead and let me go
Kill me, I cried and love said "no"
Kill me, I cried and love said "no"

Love's light blue took me from you
And that moment I knew I was out of hope...again

Kill me, I begged and love said "no"
Leave me for dead and let me go
Kill me, I cried and love said "no"
Kill me, I cried and love said "no"
Love said "no"
And love said "no"

The cat came back, we thought he was a goner
But the cat came back; it just couldn't stay away..."

LOL!
Something like that!
I'm still trying to get the Macarena out of my head.
That, and Right Said Fred's "I'm too sexy"
*ugh*

I'd rather have E'nuff Z'nuff's "Fly High Michelle" stuck in my head.

Wombats abound on these threads for some reason.
Must be a connection.

Realities of Fatal flaw: Textual objectivism in the works of Eco

Helmut N. Parry
Department of Politics, Oxford University

1. Contexts of defining characteristic

In the works of Fellini, a predominant concept is the distinction between ground and figure. In a sense, Bataille uses the term 'textual objectivism' to denote the rubicon, and subsequent meaninglessness, of postcapitalist culture.

The subject is interpolated into a structuralist desemanticism that includes consciousness as a paradox. But Lyotard's critique of subcultural theory states that academe is intrinsically meaningless.

Marx promotes the use of structuralist desemanticism to deconstruct hierarchy. Therefore, the premise of structural neocultural theory holds that class has objective value.

2. Fellini and structuralist desemanticism

"Sexual identity is dead," says Baudrillard. If textual objectivism holds, we have to choose between materialist feminism and subcultural appropriation. In a sense, Bataille suggests the use of structuralist desemanticism to modify and read society.

Reicher[1] implies that we have to choose between materialist feminism and precultural desublimation. But Derrida uses the term 'structuralist desemanticism' to denote the role of the observer as artist.

Bataille promotes the use of textual objectivism to attack class divisions. However, the subject is contextualised into a materialist feminism that includes reality as a totality. Debord uses the term 'Sontagist camp' to denote not constructivism as such, but subconstructivism. In a sense, Sartre suggests the use of textual objectivism to challenge sexuality.

3. Semanticist precultural theory and the structural paradigm of expression

In the works of Fellini, a predominant concept is the concept of subtextual reality. The primary theme of the works of Fellini is the role of the writer as participant. However, if the structural paradigm of expression holds, we have to choose between Lyotardist narrative and dialectic posttextual theory.

The subject is interpolated into a materialist feminism that includes sexuality as a whole. But several narratives concerning textual objectivism may be revealed.

Debord promotes the use of materialist feminism to attack the status quo. In a sense, Bailey[2] suggests that we have to choose between textual objectivism and the conceptual paradigm of reality.

The Postmodernism Generator was written by Andrew C. Bulhak using the Dada Engine, a system for generating random text from recursive grammars, and modified very slightly by Josh Larios (this version, anyway. There are others out there).

This installation of the Generator has delivered 1478662 essays since 25/Feb/2000 18:43:09 PST, when it became operational. It is being served from a machine in Seattle, Washington, USA.
