Avant garde, no?

Well, firstly a correction. Apparently it wasn't Rob Coupe in that service station. It was his identical twin brother, Tom.

I'm ever so sorry for any confusion I may have caused.

I... I can't really remember a lot of what I did last night - it's all just flashes of snippets of sections of conversation and wacky antics...

It was the end of term yesterday, for those un/fortunate enough to still attend school, and the streets were full to the brim with youth - and get this, they was drinking.

Such a party atmosphere beckoned Vegie, SteveSteve and I out into the open, and we amused ourselves in various ways - a fun time was had by all, I'm sure.

I don't really have any particular way to finish this entry off - no witty line, no amusing callback... It was just an evening of crime and drug ab/use and singing and dancing through the streets of Warragul.

We did make an interesting observation, though (in the middle of a discussion about time travel), and it goes a little like this:

Okay, so dig this. The universe is pretty big, yeah? Yeah. No, it's REALLY FUCKING HUGE! I mean, massive, yeah? Yeah. No, I don't think you get it, it's GIGANTIC! ABSOLUTELY HUMONGOUS - YOU CANNOT COMPREHEND IT'S UNCOMPREHENDABLE SIZE, yeah? Okay.

Okay, so in this MASSIVELY MASSIVE UNIVERSE, you are a tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny to an infinite degree cog in a series of tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny to an infinite degree -1 series of cogs, in a tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny to an infinite degree -2 series of valves and whatsits and so on, in this huge, massive machine.

At the time of the Big Bang, all was predestined. Every molecule had a path that it had no choice but to take. We're just a bunch of tiny cogs playing out our determined insignificant part in this huge cosmic ballet, hurtling towards a singularity without a care in the world.

Okay, but dig this. We're governed by all these forces, that determine our actions - gravity, magnetism, etc... But the things which govern us, the protons, the electrons, the neutrons, etc... they're so small. Within us and all around us, we the tiny to an infinite degree cogs in the larger machine... to us, these things determine our existence, our actions - and they're so small. To an electron, Warragul is unfathomably huge. Somehow, that thought makes me feel more important than religion ever could.

Update in Mid October: You fucking goon, what the fuck were you on?
