the lack of respect sucks. i suppose it was a sort of inadvertent trust test. to put a more positive spin on it, at least it wasn't the (expensive) knife that was sitting next to it. a lesson, maybe, that i can no longer leave my tools where others are apt to mess with them.
Yeah, sorry to hear that.
I used to keep my cooking knife on my hip, my oven glove in my apron strap, and my tools hidden in the freezer. I feel ya.

Definitely a generalist. Guess the real experts are the more rare breed. But who knows. Maybe if most of us are generalists, we tend to generalize people into experts and generalists :P
I think there are more experts here than any of us realize. We tend to compare ourselves to more talented than ourselves, and fail to see that we’re more talented at a particular thing, than 95% of the population. It’s all subjective :)

I’m heading in the direction of 50.
You’re a Gen X’er, you belong here. The Respectable Rebels from your generation are awesome creatures of intelligence, stuck between two polar opposite (Boomers and Millennials). You guys make it possible for my generation to even be here. Thank you.
Replying to @NateStipe (0xd5d560b2e9faddd6796ac777963dd59c42babae2)
I'd say all of the above could be applicable. We all take time for granted, but anything can happen; some that could be expected and some unexpected. We should appreciate every day.
Mysterious 🤔😎
Time is a very difficult thing for me. I always feel the clock running out. I’m overly aware of how little time I (we) have, and it never stops nagging at me.
Replying to @pluma (0xd9fb1d684627a890347a4f6a7fe32e993617b6d8)
i want to see the children of today grown and happy. i'd hope to see the world better taken care of. ideally, i'd like to see more and more love, on all fronts.
That’s a beautiful desire. I hope your hope comes true, more so each day.
Replying to @NateStipe (0xd5d560b2e9faddd6796ac777963dd59c42babae2)
@docdailey - it means to like something and is a rearranged spelling of "like". It was first used by @abcoathup on Peepeth and has pretty much become the standard way to express liking a post. Feel free to use #like or anything else.
I’m am very happy to have found the meaning behind this. It is not good to ask, but it is good to know. Haha
Replying to @Bitcoinstacks (0x214b7008e5be05846af2d1fd1e79dbc6d7ea93a2)
Thank you for the respect
Adam, thank you for the tip! I feel extremely honored! 🙏🏼
You’re welcome for the respect. ☺️😎 What else can a Respectable Rebel do? It’s in my nature to respect all people.
Also, sorry for taking so long to reply... celebrating birthdays and my sister being in town.
Replying to @Carneous (0xbba2cb74962001dcb46d794265ae35eac92c5756)
I Think to record peeps on the blockchain will work as a prove to ownership for copyrights on creative content. So maybe to peep a new song or a new blog, lyrics, or any creative content will be a great way to enforce ownership, right?
That is a really smart thought. Original content posted on Peepeth is verifiably yours!
Replying to @pluma (0xd9fb1d684627a890347a4f6a7fe32e993617b6d8)
warning: rant. why do people touch things that aren't theirs? today i came back from being on delivery, only to find that my personal spatula had been taken off my station and used for savory prep that stained and ruined my tool. worse yet, it has sentimental value attached. :(
I’m sorry this happened. :(
People assume things don’t have sentimental value, and tend to only see their own perspective on things. It sucks. We all kind of do it. But if your spatula was some place uncommon for a spatula to be, they should have had more sense.
Replying to @danieljakobian (0x0da07e67c2ca3a3cfcb58af115e1c0ed64f69f96)
Definitely a generalist. Guess the real experts are the more rare breed. But who knows. Maybe if most of us are generalists, we tend to generalize people into experts and generalists :P
Interesting thoughts. I bet some generalists are actually experts, but due to the nature of our society and the overwhelming amount of knowledge there is to learn, those experts place themselves into the wrong category, because they know a lot about a lot of things.
@bitcoinstacks - I respect your “mission.” And like the old evangelists would say, it matters not how the word gets out, so long as it gets out.
Replying to @abcoathup (0x13ebd3443fa5575f0eb173e323d8419f7452cfb1)
Detail focus and pride in my work.
😎👊🏻

(His strongest area is... Peeping... on mobile...) *whistling* (All the Ppeple on Peepeth know that.) ;-)
Haha! Peeperific!
Energetic spastic, explosive, Peeptastic! - a new twist on a song by Custom (0.03 ETH to anyone who find the song I’m referring to).
Replying to @voyager (0x459948a40918d535407fd49bf2c041d546fc37ae)
If it's applicable, why not, as it does sound organic.
Interesting response!
Beautiful depiction Fred 😂🙌🏼
Replying to @voyager (0x459948a40918d535407fd49bf2c041d546fc37ae)
Another Jack of all trades here @Sparrow
That seems to be the name of the game in the modern world.
Would you say we need to break it down further? Perhaps a jack of all trades with a particular focus, like technology, health, etcetera?
Replying to @doodlemania (0xa3ffa423140b730c0c2e1cc412a80cc49f125c01)
Definitely a generalist - in my world, I have to know a lot about a ton of things, but can't possibly be a technical genius in everything!
That’s awesome! Im sure everyone here, including you, is much smarter than they let on.
I’m not sure expert and technical genius are the same things, haha. But I hear what you’re saying!
Replying to @abcoathup (0x13ebd3443fa5575f0eb173e323d8419f7452cfb1)
Overall a generalist
Cool cool! If you had to pick your strongest area, generally speaking, what would you say it is?
Replying to @NateStipe (0xd5d560b2e9faddd6796ac777963dd59c42babae2)
I don't know about ya'll but, I just hope I see 2030
Haha. Well, you’re on Peepeth, so I’d assume you’re under 50. And if you’re concerned about 12 years, then you’re likely having health problems, or just alluding to how the world is going. So what is it? Cardiovascular? Political? Environmental?
I love listening to people who know a lot something, because I tend to know something about everything, but not too much about anything.
What kind of person are you: an expert in a few things, or a generalist in many things?
Replying to @pluma (0xd9fb1d684627a890347a4f6a7fe32e993617b6d8)
excellent! with that sentiment, the universe has become slightly more comfortable. 😂
Haha. I love weird people. The more peculiar the better, until that particular tipping point is reached, where one can no longer function in society. Haha.
@wgmeets you seem interesting and alternative. I’d like to follow you on Instagram as well, if you have an account. Look me up - @sparrows.life
Replying to @wgmeets (0x6e63a4caeccb4f341ee9c9175c9cc554bdb6d10b)
That deserves a follow, haha!
Haha, I’m honored 🙏🏼
@pluma what is one thing you want to see by 2030?
Replying to @Bevan (0x30755d3e65c0cf46c35b72d11e52d941c5fc3a3e)
I'm a fan of this book specifically and the genre in general. Not sure if everyone in the club is though; heavy stuff for many! You might also like Redeployment by Phil Klay. Fictional short stories based on his experience in Iraq.
Glad we share that similarity, Bevan! And thank you for the book recommendation, I’ll pick up a copy on amazon.
Let’s tackle Atlas Shrugged 😂
Replying to @BigDrunkBear (0x2059f560b33bf4101a19739cbc789850661e5cdc)
I'm falling in love with Peepeth hard, fast, and deep. Let's ignore for a moment how important it is to establish a user-friendly decentralized social-platform. The concept of bulk-saving actions in order to reduce costs, in and of itself, is pretty awesome!
Excellent first peep!
Being a curious cause big problems when traveling abroad. Some streets you shouldn’t walk down, some bars you shouldn’t step into, and some back rooms shouldn’t be seen.
If you’re curious like me, be prepared to talk your way out of things, or fast enough to not need to. Haha
Replying to @wgmeets (0x6e63a4caeccb4f341ee9c9175c9cc554bdb6d10b)
Reason as to why I feel the future is being thrown a bunch of shite or the be our best stuff? Hehe.
The first one, haha!

<b>📚 Peepreads</b> Inital members: - @scaur - @frshzrnmln - @pluma - @AlbertC Book suggestions open! Also, if anyone would like to start a Telegram group for voice messages that's good too. A book a month?
The Things They Carried 📕
Replying to @voyager (0x459948a40918d535407fd49bf2c041d546fc37ae)
Good 💡. I had something similar on my mind, to create an artwork that would have all the words represented as graphical pieces of the artwork (elaborate painting for example). You can also just write all the words down and interject other seed words between them @Gsp. Have fun!
That sounds like it’s be a cool visual! A modern art kind of thing, with words of personal meaning separating seed words 👌🏼
Replying to @satsearcher (0x6348dbea8987c27f8462755e493f64d99c28dd05)
@Sparrow great website dude - I'm really impressed. Brings me to a thought that's been floating around on my mental backburner for a while - does anyone want to start a Peepeth international book club?
Firstly, thank you for the compliment about my website!
Secondly, a book club would be awesome! As long as the books were awesome, haha.
Replying to @pluma (0xd9fb1d684627a890347a4f6a7fe32e993617b6d8)
ok whoa. i've also done that with my phrases, haha! the short stories thing, i mean. thought i was just a weirdo. 😄
You’re definitely a weirdo! But you’re not alone, haha. 😂😃

Haha! That’s awesome

Why thank you kind rebel sir! :)
You’re most welcome 🙏🏼
@mattjohnson cool background animation!
Replying to @wgmeets (0x6e63a4caeccb4f341ee9c9175c9cc554bdb6d10b)
Yea I have enough politics on the daily throwing feces at my kids future, I honestly don’t need it in a young space where we can be our best and have a positive impact in a certain part of society.
That’s an interesting thing to say. Is there any particular reason?
Replying to @Jaco (0x2be223f0241577a4fe25df90a7f94cf50721ac26)
You can't control the memes, man 🙄
I know, haha 😅
One can wish though 🙌🏼
Replying to @aribo (0x0cef279811d4fc25bd1d9374c3de46ea06bcb1a3)
I'm afraid they will, they are intrinsic with human cognitive nature: repetition :)
Haha, you’re right!
@voyager I’ve just read through your peepeth activity. You’re a very capable and quick internet guru!
Replying to @voyager (0x459948a40918d535407fd49bf2c041d546fc37ae)
A refreshing 'About me' from @sparrow https://mattegelkraut.com/matthew-d-egelkraut/ "It is super weird speaking in third person, but what can you do, SEO is a challenge."
Haha, thanks for checking out my new website! I appreciate the quote and share! Haha
@jrmoreau you’re worth a follow! I dig your bio, bro. 0.01 ETH says you’d like my first article at MattEgelkraut.com. You’re a Respectable Rebel.
Replying to @jrmoreau (0xb4f6ae2cca59f0ea3fb2559e32c61df753bb542a)
You called that one!
You called Instagram! Might be time to transition out.
Replying to @jrmoreau (0xb4f6ae2cca59f0ea3fb2559e32c61df753bb542a)
Insta is getting bad though too. If you browse suggested posts you'll see a lot of "fake" accounts posting content for clicks as well. I think these sites do that to gain a lot of followers and then sell the accounts off.
You’re not wrong! Eventually, every awesome place becomes saturated with non-awesome stuff.
It reminds me of Bitcoins price peak. In the early days tons of intelligent people found a community. I told my brother, “when dad wants to join, it’s time to get out.” Sure enough... 📉
Replying to @aribo (0x0cef279811d4fc25bd1d9374c3de46ea06bcb1a3)
been on twitter since 2008, it feels like it but more empowering and secure
That’s a while! I agree with the empowering and secure atmosphere.
Replying to @Jaco (0x2be223f0241577a4fe25df90a7f94cf50721ac26)
As a largely silent lurker on twitter - there is something about Peepeth that feels inclusive and positive, promoting discussion over argument and allowing people in my position to creep out of the woodwork. Will now be contributing to the kickstarter after trying it out!
Totally agree with you on this! Now it’s up to us to keep that attitude and culture alive, and pass it on to each new wave of users!
Replying to @Jaco (0x2be223f0241577a4fe25df90a7f94cf50721ac26)
Do you know if the fee is integrated as a part of the dApp, or is a feature of the front-end?
Wouldn’t it be disastrously disappointing if we get sent an optional fee for all of our posts when Peepeth goes mainstream/live?
“Thank you for using beta version, if you want to keep your account please pay $369.11 or allow it to terminate for free.” ☹️😂
Replying to @Jaco (0x2be223f0241577a4fe25df90a7f94cf50721ac26)
Peepeth is the first dApp I've used - does anyone know of any other well implemented dApps I should try?
I’ve heard Cent is pretty cool, but I’m happy with Peepeth for a while.

#decentralizeme
While this is funny, I hope to God memes will not be popular on Peepeth. They drive out intelligence like a homeless dude who smells of urine drives out customers at McDonalds. :(
Replying to @jrmoreau (0xb4f6ae2cca59f0ea3fb2559e32c61df753bb542a)
Ever since I deleted FB I basically feel like a zen monk.
Absolutely agree, haha! Facebook is not a suitable place for like who like facts, or original content. I’ve been super active on Instragram for the last 2 years, as the subculture is better! But this place is uniquely awesome.
Replying to @aribo (0x0cef279811d4fc25bd1d9374c3de46ea06bcb1a3)
could be added the feature to delete pees that haven't been committed to blockchain? #makingthefuture #peepeth
I was hoping that too! Typos bother me, and I’ve already done a few 😬
