Post Amendments on Pre-existing Thoughts That Never Made It Into the Present

there were many questions i was gonna ask on etiquette. then i thought that it might be rude to ask them somewhere that people involved might read them. kind of a neat irony there i suppose.

i will say this....earlier this week some discussion arose between a friend and i. which led me to ask whether he believed in an afterlife or not. the question was simply so that i could get an insight into the way he views things. he began to sputter about it being a difficult question to answer. which i replied that i had a 50/50 chance of getting it right already because there are two answers to choose from. he went on to say that what it was he believed in didn't necessarily (is that right? it doesn't look right) fall "after" life and didn't fall into what was generally considered "afterlife".

now....i believe that the basest reason that language exists is communication (and to vomit on blogs). literature and poetry are evolutions of this reason mixed with art (although that can be debatable). he understood what was meant by "afterlife" so the answer could be either 'yes' or 'no'. anything else is ancillary. what he believes to be "afterlife" doesn't matter one bit. not only does it fall into the category of "unknowable" (thus making whatever it is you believe theory or hypothesis) but it wasn't the question i had asked. it took 15 minutes to agonizingly drag an answer out of him (which from the onset was 'yes' but i needed him to admit it now)

my question on etiquette is, was it wrong of me to stab him?

on a another topic...i don't understand hirsutes (yeah so i made it a noun, so what)
