Testing, testing does this thing work?
Hi all, I am a n00b and thought this might be a good place to jump in.
The MoQ is nonsense because:
#10. There are two kinds of people in the world: Those who lump reality into
metaphorical catagories and those who don't.
#9. MoQers who set DQ up as the highest value are just Discordians without
the sense of humor.
#8. As Ernest Rutherford said, "Science is physics. Everything else is
stamp collecting." MoQ taken literally is just another system of taxonomy.
#7. MoQ is old wine stored in a new skin.
#6. MoQ strips away your intellectual baggage then leaves you stranded at
the airport.
#5. Motorcycles are for rebels. Ships are for fools
#4. MoQ is a straw dog biting at a straw man eating a slaw dog.
#3. MoQ is Buddah on the road. We should be killing it.
#2. If the world is made of value, then maybe Pontiac really is "Fuel for
the Soul"
And the # 1 reason the MoQ is nonsense:
Robert Pirsig is a big fat idiot.
Just kidding, gotta run and get ready for the metaphorical crotch kicking to
come...
