Sir Paul McCartney, on "Abbey Road," wrote and sang the lyrics "And in the end, the love you take/ is equal to the love you make."

This is, regrettably, 100% incorrect.

We ARE home.

When we cease to exist we'll take nothing 'cause we ain't goin' anywhere, we just ain't gonna be anymore.....but, 100% less.

Sir Paul, also, is fond of saying "The more you give the more you get" BUT the reality is 'The more you SELL (or steal) the more you get'.

So now you are attacking totally subjective sentiments from pop song lyrics? I mean, you do realize that your criticism here is meaningless in terms of objective reality, right? Once man's joy is another man's suffering and such. While you can argue that those who behave more selfishly tend to have certain advantages, those who behave compassionately have their own advantages. That's why both tendencies evolved in the human species. I think Sir Paul's message is pretty obviously his personal view that being compassionate makes you happier and more fulfilled in life. Material goods are not the only things which human beings can attribute value to.

From the videos you've posted so far, you come off as quite a cynical, bitter person who uses confusing and awkward humor to deal with your own feelings of nihilistic despair.

Also, your video didn't make any sense.

But that doesn't rhyme and has no alliteration, so it would never make it in a song.

Obviously, marf, you don't get it.

Not that I do, either, but TOR is probably using that as a litmus test regarding who here is enlightened and who isn't.

Damn, I failed to produce a pink color? Well now I am red.

Edited to add:
After watching the video lemme just say.

What in the FcUK was that?

Personally, Valiant Dancer I think the second "d" in your response may not required.

Well, at least this one was short.

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Do you mean OD? As in only an OD on drugs could produce such a video?
