BC does not consume or use drugs.
Do you use drugs? If you do no wonder you are not living the life. I mean look at the proof. BC does not do drugs but has a girlfriend a number of sports car and loaded with cash.
But look at Elgiac he smokeweederryday. And he is not loaded with cash or has ownership of a number of sports car. Case closed.
Doing drugs makes you poor.
Any objections?

No, this is not a hate thread to a religion. Its more of a question.
A really long time ago, Muslims had this little empire...actually huge empire. It was massive, bigger than Alexander's Empire and the Roman Empire. It was one of the greatest empires in human history for their innovations in SCIENCE, MATH, ASTRONOMY, COMMERCE AND ECONOMY, ART, and a lot of more awesome shit. They were really open minded too, they accepted and allowed anyone to practice or not practice any religion they wanted.
So here's the question, how did a people influenced by this religion, Islam, get downgraded so much into mindless religious fanatics that would kill you just because you pulled a funny?
One answer, Genghis Khan. You know he wiped out all of Islams city, killed and empty huge cities and actually destroyed huge cultural and educational facilities.
Hell it was said the river near Baghdad was dyed black with the number of books that were destroyed by the horde.
But didn't most of the Mongols converted into Islam? And wasn't the Ottoman Empire actually pretty good?
I will explain i got to go to work so will explain later.
Alright.
Basically the places that the source of education mainly the whole libraries were burnt down. Now that is bad because all that was left was the military strength of the Mamluks down in Egypt, and the Seljuk Turks. Remember these groups did not have big libaries and educational facilities those were in Spain where the Muslims were being pushed back. The Seljuk and the Mamluks were military based nations with little interest in education and most of the middle east fell in to darkness as theories that the muslims arrogance became their undoing and god sent Genghis as punishment. Thus education was sent as a back burner and religious preaching was pushed. Sad but the Seljuks were later removed by the Ottomon who although fought wars were not big on education. They started but remember religious beliefs still maintained. They were busy managing many tribes of former muslim lands that were warring and honestly with no strong funding for educational facilities but huge funding for their war machine slowed their progress down. The mongols well some converted to islam but by the time they did well all books and theories were burnt, remember that one scientist who survived only got his funding because he gave the excuse that he was studying the stars for mystical reasons and the general was okay with that. A better reasoning is that the countless troves of knowledge that were locked in those books that were destroyed could not be replaced. Why? Because the printing press had not been received in the middle east due to the complications in how to print in arabic which was different from latin based writing. Thus not enough copies were distributed and no one could start back from where they left off. The Italians were able to take advantage of that and were able to excel. Second problem superstition as i mentioned before was a big issue. But mostly in the arab world the nations that came back were small and weak and did not have the stability to start progress. Immediately conquered by the Ottomans after the Mongols strength withered the region was plagued with scars of war for centuries. Hell the Mughals who trace themselves to the Mongols were busy trying to maintain control over India where they had to appease the Princes and keep them from rebelling. Honestly if Spain did not fall then maybe you may have seen muslims still leading the way in science. But the lack of ability to distribute knowledge and increasing superstition caused alot of problems. Plus the constant war after the fall of the last Caliphate. Also the Mongols never considered education important actually it was considered a stupid thing to them and a waste of time. Truth be told the Mongols were brutal and unlike many revisionist nowadays were known for killing millions and raping millions. Hell they even killed those who surrendered later on when they met again. They may have been smart in war but their brutality was horrible. Also they basically used their opponents who they defeated as cannon fodder to take majority of the losses until they went into battle. Funny thing is one of the cities that had created many great minds during those times was destroyed. It went from a population of more than a million people to now, just over 300,000 people.

Spoiler So, I guess if we're sharing stories, I can share one of mine.
First, there are a few things you should know about me.
1) I'm a hard-core romantic. I've been criticised by many for having "unrealistic expectations of love", which basically equates to me very rarely falling in love or even into an infatuation.
And,
2) I'm an all-or-nothing kind of guy. I either give it my best and go all-in, or I just don't even try. In everything I do, be it school, work, video games, etc. This connects with my previous statement of rarely falling in love because, well, I only want to fall in love with those who I truly love. Don't want to waste mine and someone else's time.
So, now that we've covered that, allow me to begin.
I will try to summarise my first (and last prior to the one I'm about to share with you) romantic experience shortly. I fell in love with her, she had a boyfriend. Using my "charm" and "wit" (I hesitate to use her words, because I don't agree with them), she ended up falling in love with me. For a few glorious months, we were purely, fantastically, irrevocably in love with each other. I can't remember the last time I was so happy. But it didn't last. She ended up moving away at the height of our relationship (sadly, it hadn't evolved to the point of physical relations, due to us both being religious at the time.) This was 5 years ago. I hadn't even thought about another woman. That was, until this next one.
About a year ago, I was forced to relocate cities (don't want to get into it). This pissed me off for many reasons, the main one being my friends that I would have to leave behind. Because just like my romantic philosophy, I carry my "all-or-nothing" mentality into pretty much everything I do, including those who I deem my friends. This means I had very few friends, but the ones I did have were extremely close to me.
But what are you going to do? I reluctantly sucked it up and moved. I would be continuing my education elsewhere, and wasn't happy about it. Or, I wasn't initially happy with it. But on the first day of classes, I met her.
She was this exotic beauty from Australia, packed with the accent and everything. She read comics to the point where she knew more than I did (which isn't anything substantial, but certainly quite a bit above average). She was an avid fan of A Song of Ice and Fire, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Metal Gear, Halo, etc. She. Was. Perfect. On top of that, she had a guy's name (which is sort of my fetish - girls with guy names.) So for the first time in years, I had begun to venture out of my shell. And I must say, I was rusty. I don't even know why she gave me the time of day, to be honest. But for some reason, she would still talk to me.
Being the freak I am, I didn't ask her out. Months went by, and the two of us were talking on a regular basis for that entire time. Finally, the Holiday Season comes around. I want to get her something nice, so I start looking online for some sort of gift. I came across this sweet Clone Trooper Lamp that I just knew she'd love (don't worry, she likes the originals more than the prequels. But we both agreed Clone Troopers were BA.) Me, being me, orders it online just in time for Christmas.
So, it arrives, I've finished wrapping it, etc. I invite her over to my house a few days prior to Christmas when my parents aren't home. This would help me accomplish 2 things.
1) I could give her the gift.
And,
2) It could potentially lead to something a bit more physical.
Alright, so she arrives at my door, I invite her in. We get to chit-chatting (at this point in time, I think a new Metal Gear V trailer was released, so I show her that), and I ask her what her plans are for the break (we hadn't got off school yet, 3 or 4 more days to go, IIRC). Conversation went something like this.
>me, sitting at my desk, trying to find article about something
>casually ask, "so, what are your plans for the break?"
>not sure how this hasn't come up before, we talk everday
>she answers, "Oh, not much. I'm flying back to Australia tomorrow to spend Christmas with my girlfriend."
Girlfriend.
She had a girlfriend. The second girl I've ever even considered starting a romantic relationship with in my life, and she has a girlfriend.
Trying not to look too broken, I continue, business as usual.
She must've noticed something was wrong and took it as a hint, because she left rather abruptly after "getting a text from her sister".
That was the last time I saw her. Right when she left, I started to bawl. She was the one good thing going on in my life. And now that was gone. I fell into a pit of depression. My grades plummeted. I believe I failed 2 courses and managed to get 50's in the others. My social life (which was basically non-existent anyway) completely disintegrated. My body, which was pretty well-maintained, began to lose any form of muscle it had. I found myself not getting out of bed for weeks straight because I didn't have a reason to. It was the worst time of my life.
It's a bit better now, but I still can't shake this feeling of "what's the point?" I feel like I have no purpose in life, and it's not getting any better.
And that's my story. I hope you enjoyed. The best thing to come out of it was this sweet lamp that I still have.
Cool.
