But but but. 1. Who are the “bitches” to the
revolutionary poet?
The Koch
brothers. Tho I do not know why they are called “the bitches.” I suspect it has
something to do to their resemblance to dogs.
2. What does giving a “bitch” “bubblegum”
after a “hard dick” suggest?
Mettā
(Wikipedia: Mettā or maitrī is loving-kindness, friendliness, benevolence,
amity, friendship, good will, kindness, close mental union, and active interest
in others. It is one of the ten pāramīs of the Theravāda school of Buddhism,
and the first of the four sublime states. This is love without clinging. ...)
3. What does “fuck love” mean?
Let us first
look at the etymology of fuck. The Random
House Historical Dictionary of American Slang (Random House, 1994, ISBN
0-394-54427-7) cites Middle Dutch _fokken_ = “to thrust, copulate with”. (see …/language/acronyms/fuck.asp
at Snopes.com). A copula = a verb, such as a form of be or seem, that
identifies the predicate of a sentence with the subject. In “fuck love”, the
unspoken first word is I or you or we, and the sentence is in the form of a
command. Therefore, I/you/we are told to identify completely with love. “Fuck
love” therefore = the command to “become love”.
4. In revolutionary thought, why do
bitches not deserve “love”?
This is a
misreading. They do deserve love. They deserve “fuck love”.
5. What is wrong with bitches anyway that
they would think they deserve anything but hard dick?
This is to ask
what is wrong with the Koch brothers. Which is to ask what is wrong with
capitalists. My guess is one of the following: F22 – Lycanthropy (delusional).
S30.870 - Other superficial bite of lower back and pelvis (by animal or human).
V80.920A - Occupant of animal-drawn vehicle injured in transport accident with
military vehicle, initial encounter (abbreviated form: Occ of anml-drn veh inj
in trnsp acc w miltry vehicle, init). V80.4 - Animal-rider or occupant of
animal-drawn vehicle injured in collision with car, pick-up truck, van, heavy
transport vehicle or bus (Type 1 Excludes animal-rider injured in collision
with military vehicle (V80.910) occupant of animal-drawn vehicle injured in
collision with military vehicle (V80.920). Don’t laugh. Mortality Data Between
1999-2007: there were 66 deaths in the United States where ICD-10 V80.4 was
indicated as the underlying cause of death [source: cdc.gov]). V95.43 -
Spacecraft collision, injuring occupant (Applicable To Spacecraft collision
with any object, fixed, moveable or moving). V96.15 - Accident due to hang
glider explosion. W16.22 - Fall in (into) bucket of water causing other injury
besides drowning and submersion. W18.11 - Fall from or off toilet without
subsequent striking against object. W56.12 - Struck by sea lion. W58.12 -
Struck by crocodile. W61.33 - Pecked by chicken. Z62.1 - Parental overprotection.
Description Synonyms Overprotective parent ICD-10-CM. Z62.1 is part of
Diagnostic Related Group (MS-DRG v30.0): 951 Other factors influencing health
status Overprotection, child by parent Z62.1. [Note: the above classification
system is taken from ICD 10. “International Classification of Diseases, 10th
Edition, Clinical Modification /Procedure Coding System consists of two parts:
1. ICD-10-CM for diagnosis coding; 2. ICD-10-PCS for inpatient procedure
coding. ICD-10-CM is for use in all U.S. health care settings. Diagnosis coding
under ICD-10-CM uses 3 to 7 digits instead of the 3 to 5 digits used with
ICD-9-CM, but the format of the code sets is similar. ICD-10-PCS is for use in
U.S. inpatient hospital settings only. ICD-10PCS uses 7 alphanumeric digits
instead of the 3 or 4 numeric digits used under ICD-9-CM procedure coding.
Coding under ICD-10-PCS is much more specific and substantially different from
ICD-9-CM procedure coding. The transition to ICD-10 is occurring because ICD-9
produces limited data about patients’ medical conditions and hospital inpatient
procedures. ICD-9 is 30 years old, has outdated terms, and is inconsistent with
current medical practice. Also, the structure of ICD-9 limits the number of new
codes that can be created, and many ICD-9 categories are full.” See “The ICD-10
Transition: An Introduction”, at CMS.gov]
6. Explain the relation of “hard dick” to
“materialism.”
I must admit to
having read Lisa Cattrone’s response to this question: “Answer: This is a trick
question. This question would only be valid if the revolutionary poet said
“a hard dick” not the abstract reference to “hard dick” as a form.” I
believe she is absolutely correct. Being an aging man, tho, I note that I am a
bit unsure of the precise meaning of “hard dick”, vis-à-vis either materialism
or idealism.
7. Explain the relation of “bitches” to
“metaphysics.”
“Only a god can
help us now.”
8. Freud, Lacan, Zizek, Joshua Clover,
Josef Kaplan, Big L are not bitches. (T/F?) Explain why or why not.
This is a two-parter.
a) (T/F?): yes.
b) Explain why or why not. Because they are
not, or at least some of the time are not, the Koch brothers.
9. Giving the bitches a hard dick — is
this revolution or poetry or both? Explain why.
This is poetry.
Or so I assume, because in her “Reminiscences of Lenin” Nadezhda Krupskaya
wrote (re: the Second Party Congress)
How
Vladimir Ilyich had dreamt of such a congress! He always, as long as he lived,
attached tremendous importance to Party congresses. He held the Party congress
to be the highest authority, where all things personal had to be cast aside,
where nothing was to be concealed, and everything was to be open and above
board. He always took great pains in preparing for Party congresses, and was
particularly careful in thinking out his speeches. In fact, he was wont to pun,
“Yes this is called a congress, heh heh, but it is certainly NOT the place for
a hard dick.”

Yeah, no. It’s just like I’ve got --
I don’t know,
just no go. I mean I, I mean
I’m very,
I’m coherent. I
can -- I hear all the noise.
(Laughing.) And you know, no, no one here
doesn’t.
GEORGE: Hard not
to.
DAVID: I don’t
know. I just kind of like I need some iron or something. I don’t know.
GEORGE: You need
some what?
DAVID: Some iron
or something I guess. I don't know.
GEORGE: You mean
as a --
DAVID: The --
GEORGE: -- a
vitamin iron you mean?
DAVID: Yeah, I
guess. I don’t --
you know,
I lost over 3,
over 3, maybe 3-1/2 pints of
blood. And
so we have been
trying to -- oh, boy,
there’s a new
one. Video
arcadia (sic). What was I talking
about? Let’s
see.
GEORGE: You were
talking about some iron.
DAVID: Yeah.
Yeah, we was talking about
some iron and we
was trying to build it up with,
you
know, the
vegetables and stuff. Because most
all the
vegetables
rotted. Electricity went out, you
know.
That stuff has
rotted.
GEORGE: Is that,
is that wound getting
worst?
DAVID: Well, the
front the, the scab fell
off of the back.
I don’t know if the back got kind
of
tender or
something. It’s, it’s -- I don’t know.
It’s -- I guess
it’s just kind of hoochie (sic) or
something, you
know. We’ve been putting
peroxide and
stuff on it.
It’s -- I don’t know. Just feel, just
feel like, you
know, I want to go to sleep.
GEORGE: Well,
except that’s not going to
make anything
better. DAVID: I’m sorry. What? I didn’t
understand what
you were --
GEORGE: I, I
don’t think -- I think kind of
trying to
resolve the way you feel and, and
getting
some help for,
or whatever is the better way to,
to
think about this
rather than, than kind of drifting
off
into sleep. It’s
not -- things aren’t going to get
better if you do
that, David.
DAVID: Oh, I
know it.
GEORGE: We got
to, we got to, you know, put out a little energy now and you may feel,
feel better
later on if in
terms of resolving something.
DAVID: Like I
said, I’ve been trying to keep
away from the
people here. [Senses] also explain why a statement of the
form a=a ;has a different “cognitive significance” than one of the
form a=b, when both are ostensibly claims of identity. Because every name
has an associated sense, simply substituting an “equivalent” term into a
sentence does not guarantee that we will interpret it in the same way, or even
that the true-value will remain the same. It is important to note that whether
or not they have an adjective class, languages associate property concepts with
either nouns or verbs (or sometimes both). [Sandra] Thompson’s explanation of
this involves discourse, or pragmatic usage. In her study of English and
Chinese, she found that adjectives and adjectival verbs function mainly as
predicates. Their second function is that of introducing new participants. The
predicating function is shared with verbs, and the introducing function is
shared with nouns. I mean, consider the function insert-sort:
List-of-Number -> List-of-Number, which takes its unordered input, and
returns the same elements in a sorted (non-decreasing) list. For example,
(insert-sort (list 8 6 2 4 10)) = (list 2 4 6 8 10). (A) Give two other
examples and (B) write the function. (Be sure to follow the template!)
(A)
(insert-sort
(list 2 1)) = (list 1 2)
(insert-sort empty) = empty
(B)
(define
insert-sort
(lambda
(lon)
(cond
[empty? lon) empty]
[else
(insert (first lon) (insert-sort (rest lon)))])))
I HAVE NO IDEA. Pretty sure it’s recursive. The other two metaphors are more
allusive. The “child of broken elevators” is – well, I don’t know – but it’s a
line I remember every time I get in an elevator. The next image – “the
curtain of holes you never want to throw away” is, well, “Quickly and quickly,
and faster, faster …” I mean, you tell me: “who ate the dogbrick sandwich?”
“When does the winged bridge appear on this terrified earth?”
