I read that whole thing hoping I would get the promised explanation of Toby (from the previous entries) and he's still holding out. Bastard.
Anyone have any ideas? My guess is that he's some sort of Zen master who has transcended the need to play games, although I'm not sure where that fits on the hierarchy.
- vgr 16y agoThough I do that kind of cliffhanger stuff on occasion, that isn't the reason here. My "theory of Toby" merely requires a good deal of groundwork to be laid. And you're right on both counts... he's not in the hierarchy, and Zen/transcending have a role in the explanation. It just won't be the kind of feel-good Zen/transcending you are probably thinking of (which you should expect, since Toby displays too much misery to be a traditional Enlightened One). If you are really curious about how I am developing this thread, read Nietzsche's 'Thus Spake Zarathustra' Venkat
