This is my 3210th post, so I'd get stabbed 6.42 times.
It depends where on the leg, really. In the thigh I might bleed out. In the ankle my chances are slightly better.

It's not about eating natural, it's about not eating poison. There's nothing wrong with genetically modifying organisms, there's everything wrong with the additives that Monsanto puts into theirs.
But I guess that doesn't help your strawman argument, huh?
The argument isn't that GMOs are inherently good. They aren't. The argument is that they aren't inherently evil just because "they're not natural ", as some people think.

Literally like TF2 hats but worse.
At least you can see the gun skin yourself while playing. I'm not hardcore into skin trading or anything like that, I just like the guns to look a tiny bit prettier. I wouldn't buy a gun skin that cost like 100€, I stick to the cheapest of the cheapest.

I found this comment on reddit Nothing we eat is fucking natural.
Most crops/livestock are in some way cultivated/breed to have properties that are critical to their use in food production.
Ever eaten a wild natural potato? The stuff is toxic and might kill you. Un cultivated Bannanas are disgusting and look like a spider laid its eggs into play-dough. Corn/maize is pretty much inedible.
If you want to go out and eat an all natural diet good luck, you will probably die because half the shit we eat, were not edibable before we came along.

I've been acquiring CS:GO skins through the community market (only cheap ones though, likes a few cents each level of cheap). Sometimes there's some really cool looking skins when you consider their price. Here's two of my favorite ones that I have. _________________________________________________ ______________________________________________ MP7 | Urban Hazard | Factory New This one cost me 11 cents. _________________________________________________ ______________________________________________ P250 | Valence | Battle-ScarredI got this one for just 9 cents. _________________________________________________ ______________________________________________

I, uh, don't know a cure for that.
But I'm not a doctor.

You know how many years Stephen Hawking's doctors gave him when they discovered he had ASL?
Two years.
He's still alive and kicking today.
Predictions are just that. Predictions. You have already faced close death and survived, haven't you? Don't think of it as taking the opportunity from someone else. It's impossible to predict the future, for all you know that heart won't go to a kid as no kid will need it, and then you not taking the transplant would have been in vain.
Of all the people on this site, I think you're on of the nicest and most sympathetic ones. I'd say you deserve this.
I was using kids as an example, really. Transplants take time anyway. Months waiting in line essentially. It could go to anybody for all I care.
Like I said. Even if I get the heart the tumor will still get me. It won't stay benign forever. I've been surrounded by people in my life who've had various forms of cancer. I've never seen one of them ever beat the odds of time given to them. Even the healthiest, strongest willed folks. Maybe they're predictions. But they're reasonably accurate. Hawking is an extremely rare exception.
I wouldn't say I do. I look at the stuff I've done over 20 years. I look at the person I am now. What could I change in the next few decades about me? I don't know. I don't see much of a person left in here to salvage anyway. I do the small things that make me happy every now and then. And I help the people I care about since I know they need a hand.
But, I've never been able to outrun the stuff that's chasing me. I've read through the books. Talked to the docs. My personality is one subject and leaning to depressive. It's hard to dig out of a hole like that. Even with the help from the docs.
I'm trying, no doubt. But making no dents. I've got all this crap gunning for me one way or another. I've always got something fun on the brain to consider. Of course, not saying I'll stop. I'll try and slog through this until I can't. But, that heart transplant deal.
Kinda stuck on it. Kind of funny, really. It wouldn't mean jack shit in the end. Wouldn't save me from anything other than heart issues. I still get hitched on it though. Like it's a holy grail that can pull me out of all this. Na. No holy grails.
I know that it's rare to beat the predictions. But it does happen. Granted, I don't know much of your personal life, so maybe I'm not in a position to say this. But I'll do it anyway, you might be too hard on yourself. You're a human being, you don't deserve death more than anyone else. Isn't it natural to try to survive even against all odds?

What are three websites that you visit every day? Sep7agon.net, reddit.com, YouTube.com
What is one thing you would change about yourself? I would make myself less anxious about social interaction, which is something I'm already working on in real life.
Would you rather be rich and ugly, or poor and good looking? Hmm. Depends on how ugly, how rich, and how poor. My budget isn't the best right now, so if all that would change is that I would become better looking, that'd be good. On the other hand I do live in one of the richest countries on earth. What frame of reference are we talking about here?
Do you keep a journal? Not for the moment, no.
Which is better, being the boss or an employee? If your boss is good, being an employee. Otherwise, being the boss.

Why is your orientation so long? Mine was like a day. Although I did do a little camp thing when I started college to ease the transition which lasted a week. But orientation shouldn't be that long, there's classes and shit to focus on.
Well, as I said, it is voluntary. We were split into teams and half of our team didn't show up on the second day, apparently it's common for the number of participants to wary from day to day. It's been fun so far, and as I'm kind of socially anxious it really helps to have activities like this, and that's why I plan to participate all days. If the studies escalate into full speed quickly I might reconsider that, though.

I walk 1,7 kilometers to the campus and back home again... mostly downhill / uphill depending on the direction.

...why do you have such long orientation
mine was literally four hours, if that
Because the student union wants everyone to be properly inducted into the social student life. It's all voluntary, but I'm planning on participating all days.
