5 minutes, let’s see if i can make anything interesting in 5 minutes.
the current goal of this article is to prove nothing, a feat that has been tried many times before, but has always dismally failed.
in an attempt to understand the cosmos, many a scientist has been caught pondering
“well, there’s all sorts of somethings around me, what if there is nothing?”
so the scientist reaches out into the air, tries to grasp it, and says, well i don’t feel anything in my hand when i close it, so there must be nothing there. he had proved to himself that it was nothing, but he wondered why this nothing always made his bike ride hell when he rode against it.
so he concluded it was anti-nothing. not quite something because being the visually based creature he was, couldn’t point to anything without looking like a fool. but it wasn’t nothing because he still breathed it in and needed it to live.
in an effect, this nothing was creating something, which was himself.
all the nothing that is surrounding us all the time in turn, creates something, which is the nothing that you may want or precieve (hence the anti-nothing).
so i guess this story basically boils down to damned if you do, damned if you don’t.
a whole lot of nothing does, i think.
