I am better because you are merely a small extension of my incredible mental capactiy. You see, I enjoy inventing strange, small, and slightly uglier extensions of myself to go into the world and experience the miniscule things my incredible brain and godly abilities won't allow me to tolerate.

actually, noone in the history has ever overrated Fripp. It's simply not possible. Underrating, however, happens every day. No human being has ever rated Master Fripp as highly as he should be, because he's just too damn great. His masterliness is beyond all human beings' comprehension. Only by speaking his name, am I comitting a deadly sin in not giving the man enough recognition. If you read this, Master Fripp, please don't smite me. ------------- The scattered jigsaw of my redemption laid out before my eyes Each piece as amorphous as the other - Each piece in its lack of shape a lie

actually, funnily enough people seem to have voted backwards on this poll, which shows that I am actually better than them.  When it says me in the poll, it refers to me Atomic_Rooster, the creator of the poll (hence the first person me). You corresponds to you, the reader.

I can't prove your statement one way or another simply because I cannot prove you exist; I can prove neither than you exist physically (since this is over the intarwebs), nor that you exist in a mental or metaphysical state, since that is technically impossible.
So I have no particular reason to doubt your statement, but just as much reason to believe it. ------------- "There seem to be quite a large percentage of young American boys out there tonight. A long way from home, eh? Well so are we... Gotta stick together." -I. Anderson |

Oh, by the way, the question doesn't make sense since the answers aren't technically related. If you want it to be right, it should say, "Am I better than You - YES or NO." "ME or YOU" is like answering "Do you want pie?" with "APPLE or CHERRY," it's second guessing the questioner. So in truth, you aren't being fair to yourself. ------------- "There seem to be quite a large percentage of young American boys out there tonight. A long way from home, eh? Well so are we...

Yes, that play of words also exists in Spanish, that's why I didn't voted for the alternative "me"

well, if you voted for "you" then it was actually for yourself, which makes you selfish. but anyways, altruism is for the weak and those who feel inadequate in their own accomplishments. but whatever, choose your own pie to lay on ------------- I am but a servant of the mighty Fripp, the sound of whose loins shall forever be upon the tongues of his followers. |
