Do you ever talk or is it just all pictures?

If you’re going to post all these threads better suited for whack-job conspiracy sites you should at least state and or defend your position on them. If you’re going to post the threads you should engage in conversation, are you posting them because you’re a believer or posting them for fun? Not that I mind exposing these frauds but you should “nurse” your thread with more than just pictures.

He posts them for fun, and once in a while replies. Relax. The replies are hilarious on occasion.

I'm Joe's attorney. Since Joe can't talk due to having his tongue removed during an alien abduction at a young age, he has instructed me to engage in a brief conversation with you on his behalf.

So, Joe says "HI"..........

Many of us who post images are believers of confucianism. Yes, were are confused.

We believe that "One picture is worth ten thousand words."

Its Tao:

One look is worth a thousand words.
Fred R. Barnard, in Printers' Ink, 8 Dec., 1921, p. 96.(now known as Marketing/Communications).
and called it "a Chinese proverb, so that people would take it seriously."
It was immediately credited to Confucious.

This saying first appeared in a 1921 ad in Printer's Ink [sic] which was written by publicist Frederick Barnard. Barnard headlined his ad `One look is worth a thousand words.' He attributed this maxim to `a famous Japanese philosopher.' Six years later, Barnard revised the saying to read `One picture is worth ten thousand words,' and then republished it in the same magazine as a `Chinese proverb.' Barnard thought his ploy would give his words added weight. He was right. For a time, Bartlett's identified Barnard's line as `a Chinese proverb.' Other sources attributed his proverb to Confucius. The Macmillan Dictionary of Quotations had it both ways. They cited Barnard as the maxim's author, adding `Ascribed to Chinese origin.'"

Words form a picture:

A picture forms a thousand words:

A picture worth seven words:

A picture not worth one word:

A picture worth 1,000 screams:

Words worth 1,000 pictures:

What Confucius never said:

Confucius say...
Passionate kiss, like spider, lead to undoing of fly

Confucius say...
Man who stand on toilet, high on pot.

Confucius say...
Better to be pissed off than pissed on.

Confucius say...
Butcher who back into meat grinder get a little behind in his orders.

Confucius say...
He who live in glass house, dress in basement.

Confucius say...
Man who stand on street corner with hands in pockets, not feeling crazy, feeling nuts.

What Confucius did say:

"When things are investigated, then true knowledge is achieved;

When true knowledge is achieved, then the will becomes sincere;

When the will becomes sincere, then the heart sees correctly;

When the heart sees correctly, then the personal life is cultivated;

When the personal life is cultivated, then the family life is regulated;

When the family life is regulated, then the national life is orderly;

And, when you are hungry, and no one is looking, eat, drink, be merry ... and post images.
