Message Subject Helping the nobody...
Poster Handle Anonymous Coward
Post Content
I am starting this thread on the possibility that there is a nobody out there. This nobody, as the story goes, is the catalyst to change that may possibly change the dynamics of this world for the better, or better known as the world savior.

Many believe the nobody is an archetype solely and has spawned into a mere fad for some and an obsession for others.

This post isn't about if the nobody is real (I would rather welcome the idea)
but rather hypothetically (or not) how would you help the nobody by assuming you were them to begin with. How would you go about trying to save the world?

For those that believe in the nobody what happens if they never show up for a variety of reasons? Also what ideas do you have to help them? To expect the nobody to be able to save us all without our participation seems like it would break the law of free will, so how do we help the nobody to save us? What would we have to do on our end?

The goal of this post is to give people the chance to express how they would change this world. Perhaps a thread like this could help the nobody with ideas on what to do. Or it could help others in their attempts to help this world and it's inhabitants? Who knows how many may read this and become inspired to change the world or come up with ideas from threads like these to help others and themselves.

Now is your time to express (anonymously if you wish) what you would do to help us all. Thank you advance for your participation!!

Everybody wonders who the Nobody is - but that's not the problem. Many, many people know who the Nobody is. The problem, however, is who is willing to cross the PTB and help the Nobody? Because the Nobody isn't really a nobody - he's somebody who's been shunned by the PTB. So who's going to cross that shunning line?

Here's a hint: the Nobody isn't in this situation by accident. The Nobody is waiting, not just for some of the PTB to find their balls (let alone their self-respect), but also their brains, and finally comprehend that their leaders have lied to them. That their leaders have always known their plan wouldn't work in the end, and planned on sacrificing them and taking everything down, rather than give up their stolen power.

So in that sense, the Nobody is allowed to be a nobody as a way to give a chance for survival to those who have believed a lie. For them to act against that lie, and save themselves, rather than just be lumped into the whole group of assholes at the end.

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a lot of balls available - or brains. And time's almost up.

Oh well. The offer was made. Once the clock ticks to the end, this farce can end with it. The Nobody is tired of being disgusted.

hhmmm good theory. I think they just wait till the last second and keep on studying the "nobody". Till when they only very very desperately need him. At the very very end.

That's an extremely dangerous strategy - especially given all the crap the Nobody has had to take for so long. By the time his goodwill is needed so desperately by the people who have been behind the crap, why should they expect any would be available for them?

It also reminds me of a Bogart movie scene (though the roles aren't exact):

Kasper Gutman: "That's an attitude, sir, that calls for the most delicate judgment on both sides. Because, as you know, sir, in the heat of action men are likely to forget where their best interests lie and let their emotions carry them away."

Sam Spade: "Then the trick from my angle is to make my play strong enough to tie you up, but not make you mad enough to bump me off against your better judgment."

Kasper Gutman: "By gad, sir, you are a character."
