What does it mean to be the fittest/strongest when we speak of survival?

interesting. i wud vote me, basically.
a bit fat now so could survive in the wild a few weeks, built like an ox, monster-cock and cute face so likely to procreate.
Blond and green eyes so genetically superior ( maybe controversial)

I always thought you had a bit of class, since then I may have reconsidered that assumption.AnassRamaIV wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2019 10:11 pmand im an English public school post grad with multi prof quals in finance etc and i'll inherit a mill plus i guess
Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.

The Royal Family? Dear me, you have lost me there old chap. And I have no idea why you are bringing those nasty bog-trotters into this.

Imagine that every one of the awful things that you wrote about in your OP suddenly vanished - no more facial recognition, voice printing etc, etc - they simply never existed.
Would you be miraculously delivered into a state of mental quietude and serenity? Of course not. Your mind would immediately start to look for and quickly find something new to bother you with.
And there is a infinite supply of such problems queuing up waiting to enter your mind and cause you mental anguish.
The reason you are unhappy is not so much the world and its problems as they way you look at it.
I have considered your comment and I have reached the following understanding about myself.
No, I'm not a person who "needs to stress and get worked up about things." Not by a long shot.
What I AM is a person who needs challenges to overcome.
The problem is that in the absence of constructive/useful challenges, I probably do get worked up about things that aren't worth it.
So, it is with great pleasure that I say I have something to channel that energy into now. Challenges to overcome. Good challenges. Not necessarily worthy challenges - not yet, anyway - but regular problems to figure out solutions to. Broken things that I can try again and again to fix - and then obtain, 'well blow me down. I did it!" moments.

That's great, Violet, I hope it works out whatever it is. I'm sure it will be more fulfilling than engaging in psuedo intellectual discussion of abstract topics on Khmer 440.

It really depends on ones mental ability first and foremost to cope with whatever live throws at you.

it's not pseudo intellectual and it's not an abstract topic.
Odd how people label things.
But, yes, it will be more fulfilling than Khmer 440 in general.

well that depends on specific circumstances and volume. There's a threshold for all of us and to judge another without actually having walked in their shoes (cue the jokes - covert and overt) is pretty, well, judgemental. Human nature to judge but at least some of us make attempts not to sometimes. Whereas others will descend en mass to purposely judge.

Given the discussion is premised upon a concept, it is by definition an abstract topic.
As for pseudo intellectual, that is a matter of perspective, Certainly references to existing critical thinking on the subject would have added greater intellectual rigour than that afforded by random opinions from anonymous posters on an open internet forum.
