>>I'd say that if I've thoroughly enjoyed my life so far, why on earth should I feel deprived? Life is way too short to spend time worrying about things I might have missed. If i'd had depressive times when I felt like my life was empty or at least missing something important, then maybe I'd agree that I should feel deprived, but sorry, I don't. Sure I'd like very much to know and experience everything there is, but practicality forbids. If I'm watching a movie I enjoy, or playing a game of baseball and having a great time doing it, why should I also be spending my time worrying that I'm not doing something else that I might or might not enjoy?

>I wouldn't be a spoilsport - when you're already at it, enjoy it. It's the time when I'd watch something, and then given the choices at hand, end up reading... if you're completely content with the choices given inside the dome, fine. That was my point.

>>>Know what, I'll start compiling a list of lists. I see that without about twenty examples I can't show anything, so I'll get myself started on that. Which would be tough, because I usually avoid such echo chambers, where everybody is quoting each other and pretending that their island is self-sufficient. Or maybe it is, because they don't feel any deprivation.

>>If you feel deprived because you've never experienced Swahili cinema, then certainly, go and experience it. Personally, I'm not that worried about it.

Which one? "Chungking Express" is one of my new favorites. I liked it so much I have several of his other movies in my Netflix queue.
