I dedicate this blog to all people who have dedicated stuff

A toast! To all those who give toasts

 Here here!

My sins have helped you be righteous in comparison

 Glad I could help.

My selfishness makes you feel selfless

So that's good.

There is no fixing codependency

 Codependent No More no more.

My being almost useless makes other people feel useful

 That's my contribution.

Being smart makes dumb people sad. Being dumb makes smart people happy

 That's one of the few joys of being smart.

Happy people suck the joy out of other people

 There are two types of people: sad people and vampires.

Maybe all compassion is just codependency

Nothing is of real benefit to anyone in any way.

Outgrowing organized religion is a failure by the religion's standpoint

 But that's OK, because religion is stupid.

My guru looked down on me, and rightfully so. I was dumb enough to follow him.

God likes you, so he doesn't like when you're not being yourself

 So there's still a conflict.

God probably has PTSD from seeing too much.

I know I'm more ignorant than most, but at least ignorance is bliss

 However, this knowledge slightly decreases my bliss.

Truth means something else is false. So if you're speaking of knowledge you're speaking of duality

 Possibly wisdom as well.

Meditators resolve meditative contradictions by meditating.

They assume what they're trying to prove. However, meditation will make you content.

My religion is the Path of Least Resistance.

 It's called Lazyanity.

If you want truth, study science. If you want happiness, practice Zen.

 Ignorance is bliss.

When the mind is tranquil, nothing is missing. That doesn't mean nothing is really missing though.

 Religious people are unrealistically happy.

I hate people asking, "are you alright," so therefore the answer is always, "no."

All language contains contradictions, so language is limited.

 That argument is also self-contradictory. As is its followup.

When you really forgive someone, you don't think to yourself, "I forgive him"

You just feel it. However, me telling you this is also just words, so ignore it.

Every argument has a weakness. Every person makes arguments. Every person has a weakness.

 My weakness for example is that I'm completely insane.

I read in a Zen book that words are useless. I guess I should return the book.

When you think you're special, no one else does. When you are humble, people think you're special. There's no winning.

Unless you're a conman. Then you think you're special and also convince others. You do this by saying, "I'm not special."

A good way to not let people idealize you is to declare yourself God. Then they'll just think you're crazy, which you are.

Knowing something implies that it's true, but you'll never know if someone else knows something

The only knowable thing is that the Hard Problem of Consciousness is hard.

I looked up the root of "root"

 It was radical.

People who don't believe in paradoxes are flooded with paradoxes

 It's the paradox paradox, which is not a paradox.

I forgive myself for my eternal damnation

 It's pretty rough though.

The Zen doctrine is, "to Hell with Zen"

 Yet people are strangely drawn to it.

I'm codependent with a codependent person

 The result is agony.

People who don't believe in evil are evil.

I'm absolutely certain that I'm insecure

 So I'm insecure about it.

Knowing you're good means you're good

 So then knowing you're the best means you're the best.

I try to be interested in my own boredom

 But I'm not. It's boring.

The word "cringy" is cringy.

 Saw this by AndYouBrutus on reddit, but I thought of it on my own.

Perhaps God is wrathful with God fearing people

 I wouldn't want someone being afraid of me, personally.

I think after someone dies, their name should be changed to Bones.

 Bones lived from 1950 to 2020. At the age of 18, Bones began his lifeling pursuit of the arts. He went by the stagename 'Bones'. His parents, now deceased, were named Bones and Bones.

One real thing about Buddhism is that it admits Buddhism is not real

 Nobody's real.

Ideally people won't be so idealistic

I accept you, but I don't accept your behavior. If you merge the two, it will seem like I don't accept you.

 It's unfortunate.

Zen is nonlogical, so a Logical Zen would be impossible, which is very logical

 And therein lies the way.

Monty Python's Argument Clinic

Me: Let's have an argument.                                      Charlie the Lawyer: NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't question the fact that you question

 It's not even a question.

I have a fanatical belief in the Happy Medium

Which means, I don't always believe in the Happy Medium. Moderation in all things.

I'm not my own master because then I'd also be my own servant

I'm a slave to no one.

How am I a pain? How am I a pain? How am I a pain?

In the moment where I believe I'm useless, my beliefs are useless.

 Have faith in yourself.

"Not forgiving myself is unforgivable" is a statement that leads to the bottom depths of sorrow.... and is also not true.

 You must believe!

Sometimes I make it weird by worrying that it'll be weird

 It really sucks.

I'm only unkind in that I believe I'm very unkind

Self-fulfillingly unkind, it is.

The only way that I'm selfish is that I wonder if I'm selfish.

If someone I completely trust doesn't forgive me, I am unforgiven

 However, it's my choice to trust them completely. It's also my choice to trust my own assumptions about them.

My conscience tells me to always listen to my conscience

 Whether I will or not is another story.

There are no puns using the word, "pun".

 So the word "pun" is not a pun, but it is the word "pun".

I knock on wood, but only when I'm insane (knock on wood)

If religions teach brotherly love, but the brothers aren't really related, they're in-laws

 Which is why religious people are hard to talk to.

You know what they say, Frank Zappa's band is the Mothers of Invention.

The glass is half devoid of space

Could God become so overweight even He cannot lift Himself out of bed?

The only absolute is that there are no absolutes besides this

I suppose He is the one who is called He Is. Moses pinterest

You have done nothing for me, so as revenge I will do nothing to you

 The good ol' silent treatment.

God doesn't take Himself as His God, because then He would be lower than Himself

 And He is the Lord God. But He doesn't take Himself as His God.

The exception to the rule that there's an exception to every rule is that Everybody Plays the Fool

There's no exception to the rule. Except that every rule has an exception.  It may be factual, may be cruel.

I hate that I hate you

 So by virtue of mathematics, pretty soon I will love you.

Am I full of insecurity and doubt? I doubt it

So therefore I have complete metaphysical certitude.

Paradoxes exist in the mind of a madman

"Am I crazy right now?" "That's a very sane thing of you to say. (pauses) Yes, you are."

I don't have closure about whether or not there's closure

 It's quite infuriating.

I feel sorry for myself for feeling sorry for myself

 Sorry, myself.

I got nothing out of Zen

That's the goal of it, I suppose.

I'm thinking about thinking about thinking

 But the first thought was about the singer Bjork.

I feel truly blessed to have so many heretics in my life

 Gives me a crusade to work on.

I want to name my band "Trending." It will always be Trending.

I don't seek validation, right?

It's useful to feel useful

 Because it's accurate, and it is like saying, "you're welcome."

I forgive myself for not forgiving

 I know not what I do.

It's good to be able to be hurt

 Even emotionally, pain helps us stay out of trouble.

I yearn to yearn again

 So therefore I'm good.

You told me that what is isn't

 I don't know if you really meant that, but if you did, you are insane. You are insane.

You changed the definition of the word 'define'

 You in a perpetual state of anti-Zen.
