For those of you that didn't know, Satan was totally a hero...in fictional literature. Gotta be careful how I word that, people around here will flip ***and kill your for writing non-dogmatic fiction about biblical characters.

I have a problem... and having money does not help the issue. XP
What is everyone up to? XP Anything fun? I just spent all day teaching Shakespeare to high school kids. So yeah, my day was awesome. Hows about yours, sir? Sounds pretty awesome to me. :O I hope they appreciated the awesomeness that is Shakespeare, I know a lot of kids in my class didn't. >.<
Mine's alright, still waiting for a phone call and trying not to buy stuff that I know I shouldn't be wasting money on. XP

For those of you that didn't know, Satan was totally a hero...in fictional literature. Gotta be careful how I word that, people around here will flip ***and kill your for writing non-dogmatic fiction about biblical characters. Well, that also means he fits into the hero's archetype, but that doesn't necessarily mean he acts like a contemporary hero. Take in mind book 2 during the assembly. He was forming a mock democracy, but in no way did he actually want it to be a full blown democracy. That's not something a "hero" would do by today's standards. OHO!
But good sir, in classical literature the ideal of a hero did not come with the social constraints that we now expect. If that were the case a man such as Gilgamesh could never be considered a hero. Way to lazy to paraphrase but, "The Hero is our protagonist, or central character, whose primary purpose is to separate from the ordinary
World and sacrifice himself for the service of the Journey at hand-to answer the challenge, complete the quest and restore the Ordinary World’s balance". In short the hero only has to be beyond that of the normal man and must sacrifice himself. All of which Satan does through out his quest and without said quest man kind would still not have the intelligence to be discussing this now, according to Milton.

In terms of LoL you got baited!
I was totally prepared for that comeback!

I was totally prepared for that comeback! Was I baited, or were you? Maybe I was anticipating that response the whole time. Bwuah ha ha! But yeah, we're talking about two different heroes. My issue is that one person might misinterpret what you're saying, so in the classical literature sense, Satan is a hero. Just like Romantic literature is about melancholy and death.

Then they need to take a real Lit class and stop reading Twilight/50 Shades of Grey.

I'd love to have the money to buy a guitar. But using said money to build a new computer is more important to me right now.

Only invested like $220 in this though. Not a bad deal IMO.

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
