What is the meaning of life?

I think there's no underlying purpose or "goal" that was set when life began in the universe. People can theorize all they want on what happens after they die, but so far, no one has proven anything. Better yet, no one has physically died and come back in some other form and told of what's on the other side. So, by all means, it's the safest to assume that no matter what you believe in, this life you hold in your hands here and now is all you get.

So, the meaning of life is what you make of it, and what you do with it in the short time your spark exists.

I was under a rock for this whole thing. So, basically, no, I don't condone stuff involving kids.

why is your favorite color red?

Becaue it's not.
y not?

See that brown armoured moonbaby on the side? Certain shades of brown are shiggy diggy to me.
brown is just a really dark red
Orange.
but orange is just red with a bit a yellow in it
Or yellow with a bit of red  in it.
oh shit that's right

both yellow and red are primaries

*commits suicide*

You're getting buried into the ground under dirt which is largely brown.

Every once in a while. It's a lot like a heat sink or an absorber. Let all the bad blood build up, and then release it when it gets to critical levels.

All anarchy all the time would be a drain. But in this way, it gets released, there's a party, and then things resume as normal.

And, in this way, folks have a chance to get clever in their natural dammicky-ness. I know I'm building up something for the occasion. Oh my yes. A piece of pandora's box will be unleashed.

Why is gravity such a weak force? It becomes strong for particles only at the Planck scale, around 1019 GeV, much above the electroweak scale (100 GeV, the energy scale dominating physics at low energies). Why are these scales so different from each other? What prevents quantities at the electroweak scale, such as the Higgs boson mass, from getting quantum corrections on the order of the Planck scale? Is the solution supersymmetry, extra dimensions, or just anthropic fine-tuning?

That's a question above my highschool dropout teachings I'm afraid.

Where does the whole quasi-Buddhist, spiritual shit come from?

How do you manage to be so empathetic?

Thank you for asking something I can think about for starters.

Spiritual stuff comes from thinking. Although I work like mad day in and day out, my thoughts have a lot of time to wander and are free to go wherever they please. I've always been drawn to scientific aspects of the world, but the unexplained phenomenon the things that science cannot or has not explained yet, something you could label as meta physical I suppose, is just as fascinating. But the two are not separate from one another. When I look at theories, and scientific things, I see the little threads and links that tie them together, how they start to feed off of each other through some strange interconnected way. And when applied to something of the unknown, a potential thread connects them as well. Of course, I can prove nothing. But the links are all there, int he background.

I manage to be empathetic through understanding and logic. I always try to look at the other side of things, to look at a view outside my own, and then realize why such things are. For example, when I was 3, my father got drunk, and decked my mother upside the jaw, and broke it. I had nightmares for four years afterward every night of that scene, replaying, over and over. I was terrified of him as a child.

But, a few years back, I visited him. I held no grudge, and no anger, because as I grew older, I understood why. He was simply the product of his parents before him. He didn't know anything else. And, when he started out with my mother, things looked okay. But my mother has her own problems too. And so things went from being okay to being bad. And my father, being the product of the circumstance, had no other way out in his limited vision and his insecurities. He couldn't deal with the anger and other problems. So he lashed out.

He's not the villain or nightmare I saw him as a child. He's a person, flawed as any, like me or you. What he did wasn't right, but in his shoes, that's all he knew, and all he had. I can't blame him for that.

So, that's how I can be so empathetic. Looking for the other side of the coin, the other story.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Hopefully I can save up enough to buy myself some land and pay it off. For the most part, I still see myslef here, working to pay my dues and keep things going for everybody else. With any luck, what I enjoy doing will have improved by then and maybe I can make some use of it.

Why do you people bitch about little activity when it is very early in the morning on a weekend? People actually do have lives, do not expect a ton of activity here every single day, those are just unrealistic expectations.

It's 1 o'clock over here compatriot. I know most of you are a few hours ahead of me. Early morning wat?

Actually, it makes me wonder how Admirals fares. If gaming is overun by desticles, I'm assuming he just packed his bags and went on over to the Archive?

10876
And where do you think it will all lead? At the end of your life, whenever your time shows up, do you think you're going to look back on things, and know that you led a good life?

Okay, second one. Let's see. Little less somber this time I think.

What's one trivial detail, something small, that you notice about people, and it bugs the shit out of you?
I don't know nor do I particularly care where it'll lead. Either Supreme Dictator or dead under a motorway overpass with a heroin needle in my arm. I'll go where life takes me.

Sometimes, people will turn to look at you and they have incredibly vacant and uncomprehending expressions. It makes me want to strangle them.

Righto.

What was, without any doubt, the shittiest day of your life thus far?

I'm being honest now.

That food scares the shit out of me. The majority of foods you eat shouldn't be black. The colour black on foods is bad.

I feel like if I ate that, 50 years down the line it would still be crawling around in my stomach.

I haven't taken a single return trip back to that site since my account got locked out. But boy oh boy do I hear that it's supposedly a big fucking mess. Maybe I'll check on it later on today, since today seems like a do fucking nothing at all day.

Well, I don't remember what banal is. But I do remember asinine. Okay, non silly. I can do that.

At this moment, from where you sit, where do you see your life going right now?
Politics, mainly.

Hopefully get a job with the Conservative Research Department after University.

And where do you think it will all lead? At the end of your life, whenever your time shows up, do you think you're going to look back on things, and know that you led a good life?

Oh yea, forgot to add one thing, fire his ass with magic .

10881
What should I ask you?

Something which isn't banal and asinine. That's a good starting point.

That seems to be the feel of the entire day. It's raining, fuck all to do, and I know I'm not going to accomplish much today. So I'm going to sit here and chug coffee as the wind blows through and I wait for the rain to become ice because we're only a few degrees above zero.

Hmm. So let's see what I can ask.

I know. Here's a good question.

What should I ask you?

I can't hear the gentle sound of rain over the howling winds at the moment. I lay down in my bed and all I hear is the winds comin' through the old building. But that gives me a question.

Do you suppose somebody's ever recorded rain falling down on a vehicle while they sat in it? That's the best sound out there.

When I played the demo, I figured I wasn't going to pick up the game. It can be fun with friends, but at the moment, I don't have any to play it with or any who really play it for that matter. So, all I can say is,

They worked on this project for 5 years? Really?

"I've got balls of balls."

That was my first choice you bugger.

Second was Walter from Fable 3. Yells out balls into a cave. "I just have one balls to say. BAAAAAAAALLLLLLLSS!"
