So, i have noticed there is a large amount of this contantly happening.

when will people realize that the world is not so black and white, that in reality most everything falls into the gray area?

i just honestly dont get this close minded approach to life.

dont people realize they are only limiting themselves....

after all isn't grey really just light black?


or even light light black?


or perhaps you prefer dark white?



in reality true grey is hard to come by, d@mn color casts.

so you see in this world, things aren't black and white, they are one of hundreds of variations defined by a hexidecimal code.

things aren't #FFFFFF or #000000

they are mostly #ffd800 and #003139


:p

How dare you make such a sweeping generalization?

Yes, there are many tinted or grades of greyishness.

Personally, moi and human eyes may prefer the 7 colors of the rainbow.

There are different colorfulness of the day.

There are also full moon shine nites or dark cloudy moonless nites.

When one color shines too much, we fail to see other colors.

When cloudless nites, we may see all the stars in the heaven excluding the moon.

meaning if we are pre-occupied with one idea/color, we may fail to see the other options or colors.

gray = analog.

black/white = digital.


:confused:

sometimes we think of ourselves in terms of good or bad when really we are a soup of both.

if you state enough black & white type opinions, will the entire mass become gray? or does it remain black and white at a macroscopic level of detail.


someone just tried to blow my mind by saying they thought Inside Kung Fu magazine and Blackbelt magazine were so great that he was terribly let down and disappointed by comparison when he read Kung Fu/Tai Chi mag. so i am a little off today. Plus it looks like it is going to be uncomfortably warm so i am starting with the icy cold Modelo Negras a bit earlier today.

Clearly, Pangquan penetrates to the marrow of the Correct. For these two are the Yin and Yang of douche-baggery. It's very incisive how he shows how Kerry could gain from having a tiny thatch of Bush-adoccio in his true nature; and also how just a tiny berry of Kerry could transform Bush from an failing oligarch into an evolving, progressing entity.... with less than a dozen words.
Bravo, my good fellow. Bravo. Indeed.

... in reality most everything falls into the gray area?

This itself is a black and white statement!

It is similar to the statement, "There are NO absolutes!" This is an absolute statement which means it is a false statement. If one presumes the statement to be a fact he has merely demonstrated it isn't a fact.

Something may be black or white within a specific context. If we change the context then something black may become white or something white may become black, but within a specified context it will remain always black or always white.

I think that sweeps are very effective techniques against people who aim to kick the head. I use them as often as I can. Am I generalizing?

The sweeping is dependent on the sweeper.

I may sweep this dump to the right pile.

I may sweep that dump to the left.

then I left.

A second sweeper comes along.

Look and see.

He may say it is ok.

Or he may sweep it in a different way.

:D

what i mean when i say:

in reality most everything falls into the gray area?

is that, with in each black or white area of life, one is contained within the other.

what i said is not a generalization so much as it is a way of the universe.

the word most being the key word in that statement. of course there will always be extremes on either side.

i chose not to go much in depth in my opening statement as to actually get others to read it without getting bored, so that i might begin a topic of debate :D

edit:

i use grey as the describing word of what i am trying to portay for lack of a better word at the time. grey itself is limiting but suites my message well enough.

I started to notice that I have some gray hairs.

They are not noticeable when in distance.

Everything is always in perspective.

The things are being the things are.

Whoever makes an observation will issue a perspective based on--

This is another argement we've had many times...
The sweeping is dependent on the sweeper.

I may sweep this dump to the right pile.

I may sweep that dump to the left.

Take a sweep to the right,

Take a sweep to the left,
