Name change
You may notice that i have changed my name from rhinoculous to rhino-itall. I think the reason is obvious to anyone who knows me. For those of you who don't, i started out thinking it was a ridiculous thing to have a blog. I realize now that i truly do know it all. My superior intellect can no longer be denied. I'm never wrong. I thought i was wrong once, but i was mistaken. Let the games begin.

Yes, your transformation was noticed, rhino.. but I liked rhinoculous. Made me think of innocuous. Or, ridiculous. Maybe that was it.
By the way, are you going to share the one time you were almost wrong?
ummm no, in fact i have never been wrong, i was just trying to make everyone else feel good about themselves. Is that wrong of me? Just kidding! of course it's not. Anyway, if i was ever wrong i'm sure it would have to involve a woman (kryptonite to a rhino). So lets just leave it there.
You have have just changed your name to dork...It would have been more appropriate and accurate. Yes Rhino, you have never been wrong...but when have you been right?
according to the left i'm always right. when have you been right?
Rhino you are not tall.
i'm not as tall as you warlike, but i'm taller than average. you are much taller than average. FREAK
Well thats because people on the right and left have this need to put people into camps of friend versus enemy to spare themselves the trouble of formulating their own impressions of people- they can simply make their conclusions without listening. The resistance to listening is what is truly behind it. If we don't listen, we can go right back to yapping again in our echo chambers.
Both sides do this.
An example: recently on two different blogs, one liberal wrote things against Islam, and on the other a 'right winger' wrote much the same thing. Both treated very differently for saying really the same things, but one was among friends and the other was not. Blogs are a way to look at social dynamics - if a Rhino could get into that.
lilly i can dig it. If you remember, i found you. I look for the other side, i want to know whats what with other ideas. Sometimes i just want to fight of course, but as you can see from the questions i asked on the boot, i'm genuinely curious. I am guilty of not listening at times too, but not as often as you or your hippie friends........... How do i know that?........ well because i just said it, and of course i'm always right. Man i love this echo chamber it's awesome in here!
I kind of liked your old name Rhino. It made me think of the word "Oculus" ...:
...
An eyelike opening or ornament, especially:
A round window.
A circular opening at the apex of a dome.
[Medieval Latin, from Latin, eye.]
...
It was much classier. But, hey, that's just my humble opinion. That's all.
anita you can still think of me as
an ornament, i'm used to being objectified by women.
Youre all grown up almost. You ditched the name I gave you, now you have to get your own opinions, grow some hair then you'll be a man. Make me proud.
Well apparently I am not viewed as being very nice for a hippie either. Interestingly enough, it all started because I did not delete you. I had all sorts of email on that. Donkey too."Why must you persist in talking with that nazi-hue??" And somehow I have gotten questions ranging from 'Are you dating rhinoculous???" to the whole crazy bit about me being a mole spy for the government trying to infiltrate the hippies. Actually, it just makes me really, really sad. So much to read, and at the end of the day people care more about my lame personal life than my opinions. Thats why I spit. I really did start this to have conversations, not relive my high school years.
See, so you did me a service coming along to harass me.
lily are we dating? well i did ask you out, sort of. but you dissed me. of course i mentioned that donk and warlike would be there so as far as i'm concerned you really dissed them.
Sweet. I got a date.
Fret you not. If you ever find yourself in a place that doesnt welcome your opinions, then you get your path train ass back here. Agree or not, we welcome all well thought out and strong opinions with a paprika of perversions.
I should confess that I tend to drive in, the Path has an odor. Although I like the Starbucks at Pavonia.
"I dont chase em, Im replacing em!!"
You're all lame and it has nothing to do with your political leanings...I would have never given any of you the time of day in High School...Peace
and if i'm caressin em
i'm undressin em
Well by high school I meant the stupid way people are so desperate to be liked. I didn't get much into that. Socially needy people make me uncomfortable.
