What's my Philosophy?

Ok, so I was reading through the roblog today, which is really good and you should read it, but anyway, i was reading through it, and I was thinking to myself...whats my vision? I mean, for my blog? I've titled it philosophical reflection, the address is the Real JC Philosophy....shouldn't I have a philosophy that I'm functioning on? Some set of rules, thoughts, or regulations that are like the modus operandi while posting to the blog?

(Oh, by the way, if I've used any terminology incorrectly, or if I do in the future, I apologize...I like to use big words, especially if I only have a very, very vague concept of what they mean...if I use it in the right context it makes me sound smarter doesn't it? And more so, during an argument, when you use words like that it helps you to win a fight if the person you are arguing against has absolutely no idea what the word you said meant cause you can start expanding thea meaning of this word to cover every point you have. And if the person you are arguing against DOES know what the word means, don't panic. Stand firm to the concept that as long as you don't let them force you into revealing what you THINK the definition of the word is, they have absolutely no proof whatsoever that you're just bluffing. Trust me, stand firm, and eventually they will, almost by accident, reveal the definition of the word to you, in a way similar to this:

"What the hell are you talking about? _________means __________ not (insert what you were implying it meant here) !

This is where you can win, but only if you play your cards right! You can:
a)say I know...that's what I was saying (and then quickly twist your own words around to fit the definition your opponent has graciously given you ;-), or
b)Deny that the definition they gave you for the word applies to the situation that you are referring to now...i.e., take said word's definition, say how it could apply in the way in which they were saying, but it can also be looked at in this way, and that the way you present it is more accurate given the situation.

Option A works best for the new at this, so I would say this is what the majority should be using. B is seriously for the super talented, definitely requires advanced talent, so don't use unless you have already mastered at least the skill of double talking!)

Don't, however, follow Stan Smith's way of trying to win an argument...you'll never be successful


Ok, so where was I? oh, right, the philosophy thing? I wonder what my philosophy is? I don't know, I guess maybe those who had a philosophy at the time weren't calling their philosophy a philosophy, and most of those that are self professed philosophers who try to tell everyone else their philosophy are either scam artists, cult leaders, or crazy (hmmmm....no, i won't go there...today!). Well, I guess I don't have much to write then right now...sorry guys! :-( Don't worry, I'll try to get in more than a couple paragraphs next time...

Cheers

P.S. If anyone is interested, which of course I am, the new Cosmo just came in the mail!!! Yayyy!! i know you're all excited for me! lol
