The Flood / Re: God made you for something
« on: October 08, 2015, 01:54:48 PM »
I don't enjoy being a walking pile of half functioning internal organs.

Thanks, God.

God's like working out in a gym. He might make you hurt sometime but your going to be stronger later.

Actually, no. As I get older all of my already partially functioning bits are going to degrade and fail faster than a normal persons because of their already diminished capacity.

are you kidding

Little to no responsabilities. And the shitty system and world we've engineered hasn't shit on you entirely just yet.

He's got a point.

Your body chemistry is different, your mental state is different. Days seem longer, everything is new to you, everything is fun.

Why wouldn't people miss that?
But you have no power. You're always being taken care of. There's no thrill or risk.

Remember when you went exploring in places you shouldn't?

When you broke a rule like "no swearing?"

When you did something you weren't supposed to?

Sure there was.

I don't know who that is.

Judging by your opinion, I'm not missing anything.

You're not taking into account that even if you managed to sly-old-dog your way into her bed, in a month's time she'd probably claim that you had forced sex with her and then where would you be.

The amount of potential hassle coming off of that warrents you steering your dick the other way.

Ask her to sign a consent contract and a NDA. Then, when she tries, I sue her ass

Please. The court's not in your favor if its a legal presiding involving a woman. Signed contract? Give me a break.

She could literally blow smoke out her ass and say that she was drugged when she wrote it and therefore it would automatically abstain her from everything.

You'd have her venomous followers after you as well, most likely smearing whatever you said and twisting to fit their agenda.

None of that would be worth it for sex.

What I think Carsonogen means is that he doesn't wanna live ignorantly. If there is more to life than video games and people not swearing, then he'd wanna see it, and now that he has, he doesn't feel like going back would be the right thing to do.

At least that's what I'd answer.

I suppose. Although, sometimes I wonder if living in ignorance is the way to go. You live your life in your own little self contained bubble. It can be quite nice, depending.

Class can't really argua that he can go back, though. Once you've aged or matured, once that ignorance and that closed sense of the world is gone, there is no going back to it, voluntarily or no.

I don't particularily give a shit. It's not my cup of tea and you can do whatever you feel like, and like whatever you feel like. Just don't go being overly obnoxious or up front about it is all and we'll get along fine.

Serious / Re: ITT: Countries that need to shape up their fucking military
« on: October 08, 2015, 11:59:00 AM »
Yes. All of NATO could be brought down by Russia's military.
Logistics. The Eurocucks are far too reliant on America for defense. If Russians were to invade, the Eurocucks would get steamrolled and America + UK would end up being the sole defenders of Europe because the Eurocucks have no idea how to properly defend themselves.

They'd probably drag Canada into it as well. We actually do have a decent military and fighting force with good history behind it. We just don't brag much. Canada gets dragged where the US goes.

« on: October 08, 2015, 11:26:47 AM »
I remember when somebody on Bungie.net thought I was a hipster for living out in a wilder area and that I wanted to build my own house and wasn't afraid to do a shit ton of work on my own.

On the subject, no. I don't think I've ever even seen a hipster up here before.

The cold likely kills them off pretty well.

A process in which an object, concept, or statement, is remade to resemble a suitible likeness of it's original placeholder,  to such a degree that it bears its exact properties and is undestinguishable from said original object.

Verily, the word used to indicate a person, thing, idea, state, event, time, remark, etc., as pointed out or present, mentioned before, supposed to be understood, or by way of emphasis.

I remember little important bits. Forgot some others.

I hang onto a few as well. I've got this neat little hammerhead shark plushie thing that my mom made out of a work tie for me. Actually, I've got a whole little box filled with special stuff like that. I haven't rooted around in there in a long time.

Depends on how much you try amigo. As long as you're setting yourself goals that you actually can reach, you can go for it. Play to your strengths. And if you don't have any, then find them. Everybody has something.

This most likely on all avenues. Can't outrun it forever. Entropy is a bitch.

It isn't "most likely" it will happen, unless there are other universes and it is somehow possible to leave this one.

Humans as we know today will be gone in about 10 million years anyway provided we aren't wiped out, as evolution will have rendered us unrecognizable by then.
This seems pretty meme-tier pseudoscience.

He's not wrong about evolution though. The longer we survive, the more time we have to change.
I don't see how natural selection could possibly continue to work given the society we have created where those that are not as well off are taken care of regardless and allowed to thrive. Also, you're assuming that in 10 million years humans will have decided to not dictate their own biological forms or augment them with cybernetics. Which seems rather unlikely given 10 million years of technological progress.

Ever consider the fact that maybe that form of advancement is actually part of the natural structure of evolution? That technology is the result of a species evolving the capacity to create it and use it in the first place?
People will have still made it in their interests to look the same because nobody likes change and people that are different. I find it doubtful they will have changed like he implied, or especially how he implied.

Oh really?

Guess you weren't counting on cultural trends then. You're thinking of this progress as an overnight change that anybody can actively see. That anybody alive today is going to live to see.

That's the thing. Between generations of people, there are minute changes. Which are appropriated by cultural trends of acceptance. Have you seen what people looked like a few thousand years ago?

How about what their ideas of beauty were? Our idea of beauty actively influences us to change ourselves to suit it. But ideas never stay the same. Therefore, neither do we.
Humans tend to act in cycles. Things repeat.

Now add the extra component of advancing technology to give us wider windows of adaptability and modification to ourselves.

Factor in the potential changes that might come with the human brain as it evolves over time as well.
