You ask me questions and I answer them. Your condescending "lol" shit doesn't bother me in the slightest.
I'm just laughing at that sentence you wrote in your previous post

No. You're writing that you thought my last sentence was laughable. I highly doubt you actually laughed.

It's more than likely you're simply trying to antagonise me.

If you did laugh you need to get off the internet, bro.
okay food hating pleb

why would i need to get off of the internet for laughing at something that's funny?  laughing at funny things is a normal human trait, bro.

Don't think I don't know what you're doing.

I don't even know why I think I'm going to get intelligent responses from you. We're in this argument for different reasons.

Unless you want an intelligent discussion, I'm done.

Meat is gross
So meat is gross, but the artificial shit that's designed to be just like actual meat is good?

lol
Why do you hate food?

The only artificial meat I eat is a veggie burger, which actually tastes a fuckload better than regular ones. But I did used to like regular burgers.

But I don't eat any other meat alternatives.

Steak, chicken, pork. None of those really taste all that great. Even before I was vegan, it was very few and far between I would enjoy meat at all. The hardest part about being a vegan is eggs. That shit is in everything.

I don't hate food, I'm just not evil; I posses a working moral compass.

Why do you hate good food?

I don't.

And it really isn't. The only thing that's non-vegan that's tasty is dairy products. Milk, cheese, etc.

Meat is gross and the soy alternatives are fucking great. Almond milk is life.

I've always wanted to ask a vegan this, but never had the chance until now really.

How the fuck do you guys like your steak? You like, never talk about it.

I know it's a joke but I've never liked steak. Or meat for that matter. Aside from the occasional bacon strip or jerky, not a fan.

Luckily the vegan alternatives I have are fucking glorious.


So, yeah... no preference on the steak thing.

Snake goes on in MGS2 about passing genes

If you don't listen to him you HATE MGS.

He's actually talking about memes, which are things you pass on through experiences and stories. The speech at the end is actually a way for Kojima to communicate with the Metal Gear team on how to create Metal Gear games without him.


That's deep, yo.

Also, I read your post about pain and what not. You strike me as a glass half empty kind of guy.

That's why I think MGS2 is the most complex narrative video games have every produced.

Actually, I look at life in a lot better light than most people. Don't judge me before you get to know me man, XD.
Kojima: "Guys... it's time to understand I can't always be here, ya know? Here..."

MGS4: "This will be my last game, then I'm done."

*a few installments later*

"I can't let go of my baby."

Well after MGS2, he WAS finished with Metal Gear... but after MGS3 started to fail, he stepped in and created something fantastic.

After creating Big Boss's origins, I think Kojima realised how much more he liked BB to SS. Pair that with the death threats he was getting from fans to follow up MGS2, he wanted to finish SS's story so he could devote his time to Big Boss.

Which is unfortunate because if lolMGS4 wasn't created, Peace Walker probably would've been on PS3 and been way better.

How the fuck does a locked thread become a trophy to trolls? Is he fucking retarded?

It does, though. Trolls can go on a rampage and save the link to the thread, thus "showing off" their trolling skillz.

But I mean, trolls are going to screenshot anyway, so it defeats the purpose. Might as well keep locked threads around to show what NOT to do; at least that serves a purpose.

Yeah, feeling useful to your partner is a given. I probably should have specified that in the be independent part, but I assumed people would understand that.

It was, I was just adding it in, y'know? It's akin to doing well on a sports team, for example. "Yeah, I'd like to score a few goals, but ultimately, I want the team to win." Wanting to score a few goals is a given.

As long as it's not getting to bad I'll allow it. Currently I think the derailment isn't that bad so no locking will take place. However if it devolves into something like say an anti-natalism shitflinging fest I'll step in.

Gotcha. I'll try to keep it civil.

2. Be independent.

I want a partner not a pet. I've already got two cats and a dog. I don't need another clingly dependent animal hanging on me all day every day. This isn't to say that kind of affection isn't nice, but you need to be able to do things an your own without needing me to be there to hold your hand every step of the way for every little thing.

This. Holy shit, I mean, yeah, I'd like to feel useful and valuable to my partner, but independence is fucking sexy as hell.

I think our generation is certainly better than the baby boomers messing it up for America at least. We realize that our government is shit, and that tolerance and equal rights SHOULD be the way of things, and discrimination against sex and gender is wrong.

Heck, we don't even have to really think about it, it's how most of us just feel.

I would argue that our generation is lazy and entitled, actually. But yeah, most of us are more "enlightened" than previous generations, considering the internet and all the information we have access to.

Just because something is natural or "programmed into our brains" doesn't make it okay. Killing others is natural, does that make it okay? No.

It's simple. The presence of pleasure is good. The presence of pain is bad. The absence of pain is good, and the absence of pleasure is only bad if there is someone their to experience it. Which, if you're not born, you can't.

Because children don't have a choice to be born or not, they shouldn't be born. Life is an imposition, one with inevitable pain included.

Taking a life and creating a life are two completely different things. Besides, what you're saying is completely dependent on context. By your logic, it's not okay to kill someone who's doing their hardest to kill you. Should I just let them kill me because it's not right to end their life? No. And I'm not going to sit back and let them murder me.
Both are impositions. No one asked to be born, no one asks to be killed. It's the exact same thing, context doesn't matter.

Quote
Children don't have the choice to be born, you're right, but just because they don't have a say doesn't mean they don't want to. Everyone, and I mean everyone, has at some point had the desire to live, even if they don't feel that way now. It's human nature. At the most basic level, we just want to survive and procreate.
Again, you're appealing to nature. Logical fallacy, mate.
People may want to live, but they don't know if they want to live until they're born. What about the people that don't want to live? Are they given easy means to kill themselves? No. They often have to do gruesome things to get what they want.

Quote
There's nothing morally wrong about that.

Morals are subjective. Don't bring it up again, please.

Quote
You're saying that, because everyone inevitably has a moment when they feel down or are in pain, that means they shouldn't be have the chance to be born?
I'm simply stating that pain is unavoidable, and shouldn't be forced unto people. Life is an imposition, just like rape and murder.

Quote
Arguing that point, you could easily counter with the fact that, by not giving that baby a chance to be born, you're an awful person robbing that kid of all his/her potential happiness, love and whatever else good feelings are out there.
Doesn't matter. Pain is inevitable, and while someone may enjoy their life, at the end of the day, negative emotions are stronger than positive ones. Who are you to say that how much pain or joy one must feel to see life as "worth the imposition"?

Quote
Life can be hard sometimes, yeah, but if I had the choice of being born or not, I'd never once consider the option of just ceasing to exist.
Good for you! Seriously, I'm not being sarcastic. I'm glad you enjoy life. So do I. I'm just arguing my beliefs in a (hopefully) convicting way.

Yeah but he said not want to have kids, so... why? That makes no sense. Unless the rumors I heard about Verb thinking humans having kids is... weird or something. Which is more or less daft, so I refuse to believe he actually thinks that without at least hearing his reason.

Aren't women hotwired to want to kids, at least much more so than men? Well, good luck finding a woman who'll marry you who also doesn't eventually want to have kids.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appeal_to_nature

Just because they have an inclination to want children doesn't make it okay. Also, who said anything about women?


Quote
Part of getting married is to settle down and make a family.
Agreed.

Quote
Bit redundant if that family's going to die off after your generation, so you might as well not even bother with that.
What? How is it redundant? That's... pretty barbaric.
You're saying all a family is good for is passing on your own genes to the next generation, which is just disgusting to think about. Yes, life is partially about passing on things to the next-generation. But they don't have to be your kids at all for that to happen. Having children is not essentially in passing on what you know.

It reminds me of MGS 1, where Master Miller explains that Alaskan field mice eat other mice's children to ensure that their genes get passed on.

Quote
To be honest, I'm not too big on marriage anyway. It's nice, sure, but all the legal stuff involved with it just makes it a bit too undesirable to me, especially if you don't plan on having kids. It seems like it puts both parties under more pressure than they need to be, and for what?
I can definitely see where you're coming from, dude. And if not being married is what it takes for you to be happy, then by all means. Knock yourself out.

To the first one, I can agree with you on showing your child your points of views, but as they get older you should promote that they think on their own or be their own man or woman. Not confine them to your same beliefs.
Atheism isn't a "belief", it's a lack of belief.

Kids won't experience religion until they're older unless they're exposed to it at a young age. If my partner and I are both atheist, they won't experience it until they can make their own decisions, which I am all for. But raising a kid religiously is the exact opposite of allowing them to make their own decisions. Small children have a very difficult time differentiating between reality and fiction.


Quote
2. I was just using an example you cunt.
It wasn't my intention to come off like that. I apologise, honestly.
My point was, though, that if you're raised religiously, you are inclined to believe in a God regardless. Even after being an atheist for a few years, I still have a instictive inclination to a "god" of some sorts, and I often have to remind myself of the facts.

Quote
3. You're implying I don't take commitments seriously because of religion? You know nothing about me.
Again, that wasn't my intention. I was using "you" to mean anyone who doesn't think about what they're doing.

Quote
4. That was in general in both directions, a poor choice of words. What I was trying to say, was people saying they can't accept people who are religious/aren't religious, is rather silly to me. Both sides of this, not just anti religion.
It is the opposite of silly, actually.
I have nothing wrong with religious people, many of which my close friends are. But when you decide to sit down and have a child with someone, not agreeing on basic life fundamentals is kind of an issue. Disagreeing with this is ridiculous.

Quote
Someone can believe in a higher power and not push any and all things unto you.
I agree with you full-heartedly. This isn't about hating religion, it's about creating the best possible atmosphere for a child to grow up in.


Your lack of seriousness when it comes to children is exactly why each generation gets worse and worse.

You must not want to have kids--at least, biologically. That's a given. You must be okay with adoption.
Can you please... explain to me what this means? Are you saying you want a sterile woman? Because you threw in the word "biologically" and I'm really wondering what you mean.
He probably means he would be willing to adopt.
Yeah but he said not want to have kids, so... why? That makes no sense. Unless the rumors I heard about Verb thinking humans having kids is... weird or something. Which is more or less daft, so I refuse to believe he actually thinks that without at least hearing his reason.

Verb and I are anti-natalists.
Buy why? Why be negative against literally the thing that has kept our species alive and is essentially programmed into our brains? I heard he also dislikes human's attraction to breasts and asses.

Just because something is natural or "programmed into our brains" doesn't make it okay. Killing others is natural, does that make it okay? No.

It's simple. The presence of pleasure is good. The presence of pain is bad. The absence of pain is good, and the absence of pleasure is only bad if there is someone there to experience it. Which, if you're not born, you can't.
