The Tao of Jeet Kune Do posits that before you learn how to punch, a punch is just a punch. Once you learn how to punch, a punch is more than just a punch. Once you have mastered the punch, it becomes just a punch once again. This rumination about the concept of mastery can be applied to many things and is a useful tool for self reflection.
Hym "If you believe that the book is more than a book, then this is evidence that you have not achieved mastery (according to the tenet posited by Jeet Kune Do). Yet, somehow, you are making the rules for both of us while simultaneously exempting yourself from rules whenever it convenient."

The government isn't "Not tyrannical" because it is just.
Hym "It's not tyrannical because the inevitable outcome of tyranny is upheaval. So, what do they do? Broaden the distribution of culpability for modern problems and the strife of their constituents. Maybe a little covert tyranny will go unnoticed. Maybe some overt tyranny whenever you can find an excuse. And as long as they condition us to be averse to violence we will remain passive. The status-quo will be maintained."

Hym "Reading up on fighting or martial arts literature will also help. It will give you a better conceptualization of what strikes should actually look like and will make for a more grounded action scene. 120+ is a lot."

Hym “I’m not anonymous. You know exactly who I am. And you have to let this ‘If you said it to my face I would punch you thing.’ If I’m more capable of violence, I get to say whatever I want now? I’m also me with derision and contempt of the internet. I also don’t have a lot of Facebook friends. You constantly try to frame me as a narcissist but when you list the criteria, it just doesn’t apply to me. I said you would say that. About the attention? I said you would say it. RIGHT AGAIN! CAPTAIN ALWAYS RIGHT! See, I love how you draw a conclusion and have people on to try and legitimize that conclusion.”

And, again...
Hym "I'm not anonymous. The week I became Hym they were posting definitions in L33t Sp34k (the format of my password) which means SOMEONE has had my Facebook profile since day one. So, not anonymous. Not a troll either. Greatest psychological mind of all time! Better than everyone."

I'm not anonymous.... You just didn't ask... Wait... Did I do this one already? No? Shit.... Do you get it least? Do you.... Do you get the joke? Nah... You don't get it...
Hym "My question is: If I was having such a substantial and negative impact, why didn't you ask? Huh? A priori assumption that I would lie? Then again I defined my name... So, not really anonymous. At the same time, you dumb motherfuckers don't really need to know who I am. Ya'll are crazy as shit. Crazy and dumb. Solipsistic narcissists, all of you. I'm sure I've said this all before but in case I haven't... Yeah... That... You filth pigs are nuts! If I had created you I would have surrounded you in an infinitely expanding mesh of space-time too! Look at yourself! Absolutely bonkers. And how do I know? Cus you're reading this. It's been like 7 years you freak! Why are you still here? I mean, I forced you to do it (at first) but now you're doing it cus you like it you slut!"
