cardboard keeps busy
I don't really, but I stole the line from Alias (more or less).
I'm just sitting at my girl's place right now, typing this post while watching episodes from Alias season 1. It's good, but I've already seen season 3 so it's kinda just filling in the details for what I've already seen. It's good though, coz although it's slightly more amateur than the others, it's got some really good cinematography, and of course it's a great show.
Do you like the changes I've made to my blog? I'm using the new version of Blogger, and it's much more customisable than the old one. I like it :o)
I'm still thinking about how to better use my other blog, since it's pretty much unused right now. Any ideas? Anyone want to help me?

the philosophy of cardboard
The other day, Darv told me that the opposite of love wasn't hate, but apathy.
I reckon that both hate and apathy are opposite to love, but in different ways. Hate is the opposite of love in that the feelings described by the word are negative rather than positive, but a relatively similar amount of passion are evident in both hate and love. Apathy, on the other hand, could be considered to be the absence of any passion, thus making it the opposite of both love and hate.
If you think about it long enough, you end up with a triangular system like this:
And so each of love, hate and apathy has two opposites. You might call this a "trichotomic system" perhaps, as opposed to the more familiar love/hate dichotomy...?
Thoughts?
Can anyone think of any other trichotomic systems?
