After class I talked to my friend who is an analytic disguised as a pragmatist about your dislike of Peirce and his having ruined semiotics for you. When I informed him of your hatred he said, in part, "That's kind of funny given that Peirce is the guy who came up with semiotics."
And as I think about it? I sort of agree. It is sort of odd to enjoy semiotics, in some sense, yet hate the articulation of semiotics made by the man who created them, so to speak.
well, he didnt. he was the 1st to use that word to describe a system of structural linguistics, but he and Saussure began working on smiler issues around the same time.
that said, Saussure did not try to shoe horn culture in. instead he lets culture work outside the system. culture informs language, language informs culture.

Why did he bring it up?
The Full interview
losing on the chick front
Ros: Lisa Loeb as remarried.
Jay: Emma Watson hates being popular and attractive. I am guessing that second part is because she hates all the pervs being all pervy.
For someone who hates being popular and sexually attractive she sure does those things a lot.
Charles Sanders Peirce can die in a fire
Ummm I'm pretty sure he already, living in poverty to boot. Should have been good enough.
any philosopher worth his weight in salt has the decency to die a pauper. Peirce has ruined semiotics for me. boo him
"Charles Sanders Peirce can die in a fire"
Yeah. Welcome to my hell. My graduate department? It's the fucking breeding grounds of contemporary pragmatist philosophy.
Fuck Peirce.
Fuck James.
FUCK DEWEY!
Fucking pragmatists.

Watching blago on Letterman.
I think the confusion may be his stress on "I did not do anything wrong."
That is a correct statement on his part. He did not do anything.
For perspective: Consider that The Matrix is nearing a state of being 10 years old.
by your ex-masturbator shirt today!
I haven't had much to say or post lately.. which fills me with chagrin.
But.. I'm drunkely surfing.. and.. I've found something J needs.
Cold Steel makes a pen.
Let me say this again. There exists a writing utensil. Made for Self Defense.
J, to your catalog, sirrah.
I haven't had much to post either because I'm either reading, writing, or playing WoW.
Or masturbating.
A lot.
But none of you needed to know that.
I did.
I needed to know so hard...
or something.
J doesn't want the pen. He wants the Spartan!
Thusly, he could pull his knife out and yell, "This is SPARTAN!".
Obama is kind of a dick
I have a paper and a presentation due monday. So, i'm wasting time.
But I did realize what Galactica would need to include for me to like it:
- Break the 4th wall
- Wacky Hijinks
- A talking dog
Issue 1.1 of The ECCCS is now out. Check it out, it is full of rock!
J, you just described the 1st incarnation of galactica.
