Robin Williams is a liar!


He told Josh that one day he'll grow up really tall. He's 20 now and look at him.... :(

reply

Yeah, I ended up being a short guy myself, and I don't really like how people promise short people will eventually grow taller. Maybe they will, but there's also no guarantee they will.

A promise is always a lie, unless it's about this, exact moment. "I promise I feel nauseated", for exampe.

(For those that confuse 'nauseous' and 'nauseated', and think there's a word like 'nauseating', I refer you to 'noxous', that works the same way. Why can people use 'noxous' correctly, but not 'nauseous'?)

A future isn't 100% knowable, unless you have access to such dimensionally high data and view of the Universe that it would make you a being so high level that you would never have to incarnate again.

This means that anyone that promises anything about the future, is a liar, regardless (there's no such word as 'irregardless', by the way, but even if there were, it would mean the opposite of 'regardless' due to a double negative of sorts) of whether that actually does happen or not. If I promise to clean a table tomorrow, and then I do clean the table tomorrow, I was still a liar, because I couldn't have known about tomorrow.

Don't promise. Don't lie.

That's ok. It seems karma got robin for that lie.

Nope, not funny. Enjoy your Karma.

Robin was 5'7 that makes me as tall as he was. He should have known better than that.

reply

Josh still looks the exact same.

reply

And he gets a ton of acting jobs regardless of his height.

reply

Josh only has himself to blame.

He should had gone without hunger.

Its that man again!!

reply

How do you know that, inside the R.V. universe, CARL didn't get taller?

reply

Well it is hard to predict how tall or small a person will wind up getting, but if you think he is a liar based off of this movie you really should watch World's Greatest Dad from a few years later.
