"Why should you not have to try?"

If I don't have to, why should I be made to?
Hym "Imagine I toss a coin 10 times. At a whim. All 10 times the coin toss comes up heads. You (on the other hand) toss a coin 10 times and try to get it to come up heads 10 times in a row. It doesn't. The first toss comes up tails. How does the fact that you "tried" effect anything? What you're doing now is no different than saying that because I wasn't TRYING to get 10 heads in a row the fact that I DID get 10 heads in a row has somewho been invalidated. Which is preposterous."

WHO CARES WHAT YOU BELIEVE!?

You should be acting in accordance with my propositional ethic regardless of what you (it's funny I actually typed "I" instead of "you" initially because I still mix up pronouns from time to time) believe! That's what I do! Act out propositions that I don't actually believe! And I don't even do that! I do whatever I feel like doing and then try to get people to accept propositions (without thinking) I don't actually believe!
Dr. JerpPeej "WHO CARES WHAT YOU BELIEVE!?"

Hym "I do. And I guess my fans. Which is why I don't like when this is trivialized. It's an insult to my fans that I cannot abide! I mean, look at you. Reading this. I'm not making you do this anymore. You clearly came here (where this is I don't even know how you're seeing this) to see what I had to say today. You might think it's brilliant and put it in your tv show and/or movie. You might ad lib it on set and send chills down the spine of your co-worker. You might use it to recruit interns. Either way, thanks for... reading? Does this count as watching? Viewing? I don't know. I'm getting off topic. How cares what I believe? Me. How are these beliefs working for me? They're not stopping me from doing anything. YOUR beliefs (on the other hand) ARE doing that..."

Difference 

That's the point though, isn't it? That she is internally a girl and has been since before she "put on the cape" so to say.
Hym "I mean... Doesn't the lack of difference demonstrate personality continuity rather than discontinuity? Wouldn't it be worse if "becoming a woman" changed her personality? "

Space travel 

I just remembered I was supposed to do a thing on why this is dumb but then I saw a clip of Eric Weinstein saying a thing that I'm pretty sure I've already said about space travel (Which was that to travel through space in a way that's meaningful we'd need to entirely reconceptualize how we view movement through space time) and I kind of beat myself to the punch by proxy. Which is... irritating... Preempted by my own brilliant mind. I could be getting the chronology of events wrong BUT if I was getting credit for my own ideas that wouldn't be an issue now would it? Because my receipts are a matter of public record and YOU KNOW which ideas you got from me and vice-versa.
Hym "Does anyone else remember the space travel thing? Other than Eric? Because that's why space travel is dumb. Now at least. And it made me think that maybe quantum entanglement had something to do with the solution but apparently that doesn't work. So, yeah. Fruitless. Pointless. And Mars sucks. Why would I want to go there and be one of Elon's Mars emerald mine slaves?"

Answered my own question 

I answered my own question, didn't I? I actually had several pretty good answers. The dragon age/fight club thing? That one was pretty good.
Hym "Hahahahaha! That's actually the story behind one of my catchphrases! You know what it is? You've probably already heard it but I'll repeat it for you: DON'T TRY AND FAIL! There. Now you know. I answered my own question. But you didn't answer mine... Did you see the maze? You said you were in hell... After you almost died. It sounds like you saw it. You saw it didn't you? What did you do? To stave off the creature? Ooh! I'm so curious! Was it me or was it the creature? I know it's a fan of mine so maybe it liked the idea and used it itself but, boy, am I curious. I have to try not to get a big head. Don't want to make your mistakes and get too big for my britches."
But Jordan... YOU didn't give a shit about the mob... You were even laughing about it... How you monetized social justice warriors? Remember that? They form a mob, more people watch you, you make more money... Isn't that just more evidence that you're a narcissistic parasite? I mean... You're definitely "parasitizing" me, aren't you?
Hym "I just saw your little diatribe on why mobing is effective and it made me think: You didn't seem to mind the mob... You seemed not to care what they thought.... Oh! I know. It's not the mobbing you had a problem with.... It's the 'being roundly and thoroughly defeated by you intellectual superior'. You are at the top of the mountain but little did you know a giant had yet to stand before you."

Unforgivable Sins

See how he just keeps making more up!? He's at like 5 different unforgivable sins! There is only supposed to be 1 and he's got like 5 of them now. That's how you know he's trying to be the self-appointed arbiter of sin. Self-appointed arbiter of morality. Not that everyone else isn't already doing the same. That's a thing that a lot of people do but he is just doing it loudly and in my direction. It shows that he lacks the humility he purports to value.
Hym "Look at all those unforgivable sins he's coming up with! He's got a ton of them! He just keeps making them up! Ridiculous!"
