Short documentary

Definitely. This vid that the Gnome posted here took a lot of effort to plan & produce. For what purpose? To sell more $500k kindling? To enlighten the rest of us on how to have 11 kids & live a certain way? To glorify the individual, stroke the ego, make the narcissist glow even more in his own self-perception?
Ugh

Along those lines, the people who are frantically using their iPhones to film an event or a concert or some encounter with a famous person or just a life event....and you know exactly why, too; they're gonna post it on FB ASAP, and email or text it to all their gadgeteer pals instead of actually experiencing the moment. It makes them the center of attention if even for a fleeting moment, and that reinforces the ego for a person who may be thinking that it is really, really, really, reeeeealy important that the world know what they are going through moment-to-moment.

We've become a lot of people who are self-centered. Oh wait, the Gnome doesn't live here.

 

+1. The facebook thing is out of control. People don't live in the moment anymore. They post about everything that goes on in their life everyday. They want to feel important and focus all the attention on them. This can get really bad when they talk about their kids and post everything about them. Can you say Kathie Lee-Gifford.

 

I dislike him because he is a holocaust denier, never provides references for his claims, generally sounds like a pompous know-it-all, and he imagined up a guy from South Carolina who made a giant wooden surfboard.

 

Come on dude you can't tell other people why they don't like you.

 

But you are incorrect as to what's going on in that dude's mind. Unless you just flat out say you know what he's thinking. Please, just say it.

Ties in with The Gnome's posited 'theories' wherein Gnome says this is how it is, and a rational mind says that's not it at all, and Gnome says well there you go, you can't disprove me...so it must be true.
Borderline deranged.

 

Bahahahahahahahaha!!!

 

Gnomes don't die, they multiply!

 

But many surfers in the car park? what does that mean? does that mean they were not up to the challenge of surfing those waves?

NJShredMachine wouldnt even bother getting wet for those waves...
I'd go though.

 

I guess NZ doesnt have too many good surfers... that is really weird considering Australia has a huge surfing population.

 

Ah, jeeeez. The unrestrained narcissism, the massive ego on display, he's a legend in his own mind.
And always, always, trying to sell piles of kindling to wealthy suckers.
