Do you know that my girlfriend is type B?

WARNING: This blog entry is not for the weak of mind... and heart... and eyes.

Entry Part 1:
Socrates was considered the wisest during his time. Why? Because he does not think he knows when he does not know. He who knows that he does not know knows. I have come up with a conjecture regarding knowing (or knowledge, or thoughts, or whatever).

Yomz' conjecture on knowledge:
Knowledge is directly proportional to ignorance to the nth power.
(where n = number of people involved in the circulation of ideas)

knowing and not knowing what another person knows and does not know increases what you know and does not know. when person A knows something, he knows it. and if person B knows that person A knows, he also knows what person A knows. but does person A knows that person B knows? suppose he knows, does person B knows that person A knows that he knows? he does not know. we do not know. therefore knowledge grows, as well as ignorance, and it will increase exponentially if more people get involved, and it will make things more complicated. (i don't want to continue, i might get a vertigo even as i write)

Quote for the week: "He who knows that he does not know knows."

Entry Part 2:
I don't have a girlfriend... yet. Now you know. I've finished Lovers in Paris this week. argh.. it was long, but good, better with subtitles, aja! I just finished watching My Boyfriend is Type B just a while ago. Nice movie. :) When will Filipino films stop espousing jolog concepts? When will the masa crowd long for higher aesthetic experiences? Maybe I'm asking a chicken-egg question. Who knows? I look forward watching a different Filipino film, maybe Pinoy Blonde, let's just see. :D



Quote from the movie: (paraphrased)
"Love is one shot of pleasure and a thousand shots of suffering."

the typical masa mind is inclined on the stupidity of the chemical reactions caused by the complexity of the human brain.

unless otherwise, then our movies could be better.

your last statement is striking. how true. hehe. apir.
