A Story by fleamailman


quote:
You are a human, flesh and blood and bone, like the rest of us.

"...naah wrong again, the goblin is just a persona, that is, on forumland there is no "flesh and blood and bones", nor "gender", "day", 'time", "place" nor "age" for that matter, for it is all just "what you read" and "what you write", where there is no more a human here than if you were to look at a book and saying "you are flesh and blood and bone my dear book", though the source of what you see is human, agreed, but what you read here isn't any more human than books, films, music, paintings and the like are, simply they are, like this text you're reading now, mere representations here, miss that point and you will not see what you are actually seeing for what think you're seeing instead..." ventured the goblin again, building up to that line he had thought often enough, saying "...welcome to the masked ball of forumland where any representation you choose is ok because none of them are real anyway, for even the best writer in the world couldn't possibly write himself as he truly is here, why, because written words only represents meaning those words aren't real though..."
