Rand Appeal
ByNew York has plucked out some highlights from the profiles of TheAtlasphere.com users, a dating site for Ayn Rand fans. I particularly like this one:
You should contact me if you are a skinny woman. If your words are a meaningful progression of concepts rather than a series of vocalizations induced by your spinal cord for the purpose of complementing my tone of voice. If you’ve seen the meatbot, the walking automaton, the pod-people, the dense, glazy-eyed substrate through which living organisms such as myself must escape to reach air and sunlight. If you’ve realized that if speech is to be regarded as a cognitive function, technically they aren’t speaking, and you don’t have to listen.
Ah, the enduring charm of objectivism.
