The Insane Asylum II

The delightful thing, dear, is that you will never know.

I guess not. Oh well.

That depends on which philosopher you ask and how you define the word "know." There's also the question of whether we can truly know what we mean by "know"....

No, but you don't have to beat yourself up about it. You can have wholesome discussions with people even when you and they are talking about completely different things. It's wonderful!
 
Whenever I try having discussions with people in which I and they are talking about totally different things, it's usually one of my brothers, and usually involves destroying things. Then there was the time one brother tried to convince me that Switzerland has nuclear weapons....

*notices Freckles drawing on the ceiling with absurdly long pencils* FRECKLES!

Someone, please, get her some therapy.
 
Sure Switzerland has nuclear weapons. They threaten us with them all the time but we just giggle and poke their noses because it just sounds so cute when they talk! Whatever they're saying about the end of the world and armed allies from space. Teehee. Cuties.
 
I never pictured the Swiss as quite that...apocalyptic. Thank you for clearing that up. I am hereby dropping any plans to travel there eventually. Norway would be better. Or Bosnia. Maybe even Ukraine....
 
Oh yes, the Swiss are obsessed with the end of the world. Why else would they label their goat cheese "Here today, goat tomorrow"? Or produce delicious chocolate bars so small you constantly run out? They see it as preparation for the end of the world. And why do Heidi and the alm uncle live on a mountaintop? Because they're communicating with alien lifeforms!

Norway is nice. Or Scotland. Don't know about Bosnia and the Ukraine...
 
So you're saying that Heidi wanted to go back to the mountains because she was secretly in love with an alien? And who excised the alien bits from the published version? (Your brother's Scots again?)
 
I'm afraid I have never read/watched/associated with Heidi. I wasn't allowed much television as a child, except when my parents wanted to watch James Bond.........

Yes. "Heidi's years of learning and travel" was originally about learning about aliens and traveling to space. There she discovered that the moon is naught but a big ball of Swiss cheese.
 
I've never seen Heidi, or read the legit version, for that matter--just a kids version that had great pictures. Really great pictures. They were even in color. I love pictures. Sadly, the pictures had no aliens....

Swiss cheese? (I don't like Swiss cheese.) Does this have anything to do with the Swiss and their apocalyptic tendencies?

And the moon will be red as blood, for the Swiss shall cause red mold to grow upon the cheese....
 
The "my fort is better than yours" hasn't worked on me since 1994, dear.

NURSE! GLEN KEEPS KNIVES IN HER ROOM! CAN I CHOOSE HER PUNISHMENT? CAN I GIVE HER CONTACT DETAILS TO THE DLR?
 
Glen is now on the run again. Thanks very much. Just when I could have had a few weeks in the Asylum to recuperate from last time....

I'm taking the knives.
 
What? *confused* I didn't give the DLR your contact details. It was a hollow threat... It must have been the nurse. I never liked the nurse... Wait, now I'm thinking about the one in Romeo & Juliet.
 
You're not supposed to like the nurse.

The DLR was too much of a threat for me to take the risk of staying in a place with untrustworthy inmates. *glares* I'm sick of them using my account without my permission, but being tied to a chair for weeks is more than I can handle.
 
They would probably hand me the coffee in a styrofoam cup. I'd rather not be drinking melted plastic, thanks.
 
No. Apparently they think that years behind a refrigerator gave the DLF electrophobia or something, so they actually don't electrocute people. They prefer methods that are much more obviously violent.

It's just that their ropes are...very uncomfortable. And they also have abysmal taste in music.
