I'm not crazy about "Woody Allen", but he has come up with some clever and pessimistic one liners, one of them being, "I would never want to belong to a club that would accept someone like me as a member."

What's the other one? 

Oh, here:

“More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.”

I wear my "loser" status as a badge of honor.

I am pleased that you acknowledge Schopenhauer's philosophical writings as worthy of being classified as horror; not horror-fiction, but horror-philosophy.

You have inspired me to once again tweak the "title/theme" of this message board.

What we are leaning in the direction of is not madness, but disillusionment.

I am going to embrace every experience of disillusionment as an opportunity to declare void a false impression. 

I have not read the book, IT, but I did notice the video you posted for a soon to be released film of the same name.

Things They Will Never Tell YouArthur Schopenhauer has been the most radical and defiant of all troublemakers.
