I think I couldn't say that the Matrix is a method for kids at all.

I think they should have, because I don't remember her at all. No face, no name, just nothing. Or maybe they meant it like she's not important, like it's about him, not about her or anyone else.
Exactly, she is nothing in every respect. The student, the young one, is delicious, though...

I prefer to think they did it intentionally. Dead vs alive. A memory vs a real person. It would be wrong if the impression of his dead wife would be as bright as the impression of that girl. We should be on that student girl side to feel how bad the main character was injured. I like the movie, though I think I won't watch it the second time.

I prefer simple answers. They just spent all the money on DiCaprio and could not afford anyone better.

Heh, maybe this is true, but it sounds a little bit too prosaic for my taste.

I did it!
Yesterday I saw a dream where I said my very first word in English.
It was word 'Sorry'. No. It is wrong. 'Сорри'. It is correct. I said this word with a very russian accent.
I remember it was America. But all signboards were in russian. May be I was in a russian neighbourhood. I remember I was lost and I run somewhere. There was new block with english signboards. I pushed somebody and because (Sergey, I had to see spelling of this word in dictionary too :( ) it was an english neighbourhood I had to say Sorry in english.
I know this is not a crazy dream. But this is my first dream in english. And i decided to write about it here.

Way to go!
Well, this is a philosophical debates thread and we have no great philosophers here, so I suppose this is the thread just to talk about something in English. Telling people about your dreams could be useful, in a way. And I can't speak for all forum members but I find it quite interesting to read about other people's dreams. And they don't have to be really crazy. Any dream will do.

By the way, I spell that word right since I posted about it, though my spelling is still carazy. :)

You're right. You hardly find a philosophy here. But this topic gives opportunity of practice. And it is good. At least for me. I feel that to write in english is more easy for me. And to think in english too. Dare hope that it is working for other...
Еще один Сергей писал(а):Other than practice, it has to be an interesting topic.
And we have practice and interesting threads here.

There was a girl in my dream this night. She was making salads like crazy. Kilograms of different salads. She was not going to eat them. She was making them for me. After 3 - 4 large portions of salad I told her I’m not hungry anymore. Somehow it turned out that it’s not important at all. Hungry or not hungry, I just have to eat all she cooks no matter what. I was trying to tell her that there’s no need to cook all the time. It would be a good idea for her to have a rest or to do something else, because I just can’t eat that much, but she wouldn’t listen.

Usually I like to eat and I eat a lot, but this night was a real nightmare. Now it’s a good time for me to have a meal, but I can’t look at the breakfast. Why women are so unreasonable even in dreams?

What a dream! Sounds more like a grandmother than a nowadays girl...

Maybe it's not a dream but a dream? One my friend sees in dreams what she wants to have. For example, when she is on a diet she sees restaurants in her dreams... And I think Nyashechka is right, the girls like this one are very seldom in life.
By the way, did she ask you do the dishes? If not, this is a rare diamond. ;)

She didn’t look like a grandmother and she didn’t mention doing the dishes. I suppose we can speak about a real diamond here, but she needs to stop cooking for one person like for a whole platoon. And maybe sometimes just to stop cooking for a while.

It's too difficult to find a real diamond in nowadays. Each person has his own shortcomings.

P.S. Something familiar is in it... Ah I see.
Alf would was very happy if he were you in your dream

To be or not to be?
The silly, silly bee!

To see or not to see?
Or swim into the sea?

To eat or not to eat
That juicy chunk of meat?

I’m Hamlet, Prince of Danes!
I’m suffering from pains!

To talk or not to talk?
Or go for a walk?

Or hide under the bed?
The voices in my head…

I rhyme and then I scream!
Or is it but a dream?

I’m Hamlet, Prince I am!
I’m finished. Thank you, m’am…

That's right.
Sergey, did you try to divert her from the cooking and to read her the verse?
