Comic Discussion > QUESTIONABLE CONTENT
WCDT: 2622-2626 (Jan 20 - 24 2014) Weekly Comics Discussion Thread
Akima:
Delilah's use of mu (wu in Chinese) is questionably appropriate, but she certainly succeeded in provoking the Great Doubt in Marten. The journey of a thousand miles begins with but a single step.
"At the bottom of great doubt lies great awakening. If you doubt fully, you will awaken fully". Hakuin Ekaku.
techkid:
I think about that sort of stuff quite a bit. More so when I'm broke...
To me, it's not so much "shunning earthly desires" as it is "living within your means". With a million dollars, a smart person can live a comfortable life on $1000/week for over 19 years. A stupid person will blast that same cash on a couple of Ferraris and be screwed again in 3 months or so.
My earthly desires are limited (games, anime, books, Internet). That, food, and a roof over my head (read: place to store all that stuff) is all I want.
Sidhekin:
Marten, that's usually given as: "If you meet the Buddha, kill him."
Though I don't know if he would be into that either.
aliensporebomb:
I think Marten has made a new friend. Nothing more.
KOK:
It seems that the last page of the week will be evenly divisible by five. I only mention this because some time ago, someone expressed a hope that it would be so. We will see how long it lasts this time.
