Well duh, water is wet after all.

This is also common knowledge, and probably part of why nobody seems to take your anti-natalism dogma seriously. Not imposing it on anyone else would most likely include not banging on about it constantly, but I'm sure you can find a loophole that means it's fine to spread it as far and wide as possible.
You don't know what a dogma is if you think anti-natalism is dogma.

Not "banging on about it constantly" would be absolutely fucking retarded. I live in a society where 99.99% of people are WRONG from my perspective, and they are doing things that I find ethically ABHORRENT. Why the fuck wouldn't I "bang on" about it? You're a jackass.

From your perspective, and as you've already said ' I don't give a fuck about what your own personal opinion on life is.' so why on earth should anyone give a fuck about yours?

People do things I find abhorrent every day, do I whop out the robes and start preaching about the evils of their actions? Nope, because it's a waste of time for all involved. Do you think you'll ever have the slightest chance in hell of convincing the human race to voluntarily wipe itself out when that runs against some of the most basic biological functions of a living thing? Because I really do admire that naivety.

There is no loophole. What tangible HARM am I levying on to youu by discussing my personal beliefs with you? In what way is that akin to people raping and murdering people every single goddamn motherfucking day? Jesus fucking Christ. Fuck you.

Oh my that's quite amusing, you go from me saying loophole to equating that with rape and murder.
Imposing things on others is against anti-natalist ideology right? So why do you keep on seeking to impose your philosophy on others, not at gun point but relentless carping on about it is a form of imposition because people who clearly don't want to hear it for the 300th time in a row are stuck with the choice of either A) Not bothering to continue the conversation or B) Putting up with yet another anti-natalist soapbox.

And as for the dogma, your rigid adherence to anti-natalism and refusal to accept any flaws in the ideology (from what I have seen) would count as dogma.

Do you actually think just because someone is born with a disability they are bound to be miserable?
Regardless of whether or not you're miserable, you still have a disability. And it would be better if you didn't.
As I said earlier, I don't give a fuck about what your own personal opinion on life is.

The anti-natalist argument is simply not to impose it on anyone else. Just because you might have won the lottery, doesn't give you the right to buy someone else a ticket and waste their money. Your happiness does not, and should not, give you the right to impose.

Well duh, water is wet after all.

Can't we have ONE game where some asshole doesn't spoil the story months before it's even announced anymore? seriously, I miss the days back when the internet was just becoming a thing and only legit info was put out and you had that little bit of magic during the waiting period where you talked about the info and got some speculation going in a thread, you know, all that hype magic that adds to the game, rather than being told the whole plot right off the bat.
I just skimmed it and it was pretty story spoiler free, it was more of an outline about what the game will be like.

OT: It actually sounds quite interesting, and I may or may not be able to say that certain surveys from a certain website very similar to this one quote appear from time to time >.>

I didn't know the PM system died.

Actually it was pronounced dead a few hours ago.

I don't know many details yet, just that it's crippling disease finally took it. No words can really be said about this, let's just pray that it's in a better place now. It was truly an inspiring individual.

Please, I'd rather not turn this thread into an argument about false accusations and such, let's just mourn our lost friend.

« on: April 20, 2015, 06:19:58 AM »
Yeah the spelling doesn't seem all that weird and I can't speak Dutch <.<

Sure you have some different letter groupings to make the same sounds but apart from that it's not really that bad <.<

This is pretty tenuous but it's at least formatted properly for including NSFW links.

One thing piqued my interest though, why do you say the Jordanian pilot wasn't innocent? I'd hardly say bombing ISIS makes him guilty of anything at all.

Okay. I got an A on my test I didn't study for and expected a to receive a D in.
You refuted yourself. You expected to receive a D. You wouldn't have been as happy if you did not first feel the stress and the dread of the potential D. It's the negative that makes the positive feel so good. It's a flawed and broken system that shouldn't be imposed on anybody.

hurr life isn't worth it since people can discover they have cancer
Correct.

Go ahead and pretend like cancer isn't a very real thing.
5% of people living in the US alone are living with some form of cancer.

5%. And that's just cancer.

20% people in the US have some type of disability. That's one out of every five people.
And you think it's okay to take that risk and impose that on somebody.

Fuck you.
A couple of points here;

20% - If you remove fatfucks from that equation, you have a better picture of genuine disability ratios. I'm sure that's discriminatory to people who deep fry their toast in lard every day but I honestly don't give a shit.

Moving on to the other point
Do you actually think just because someone is born with a disability they are bound to be miserable?
Or that their life is just one long episode of suffering?
Have you met many disabled people, mentally or physically? Sure there might be some that are unhappy but out of the countless ones I have met and know, none of them hate their lives and spend every day in bitter misery that they are disabled they just get on with it and enjoy what they can do instead.

Serious / Re: Parental rights of rapists
« on: April 19, 2015, 04:19:47 PM »
So should the law automatically disqualify the rapist from any right to custody?
I would say so, someone with that sort of pathology isn't fit to be near children. This is violent rape we are talking about though right? <.< If it's one of those more borderline alcohol fueled cases that get people so worked up I could see the arguments for and against but someone who assaults another person in that way is not fit to parent.

Scenario 1: No custody at all, a sex offender of that degree should not be allowed near children let alone be responsible for one. If the woman doesn't want custody then the child should be placed into care. Yes they should be required to pay child support regardless of whether the mother holds custody (Paid to the state/carer instead)

Scenario 2: No custody at all for the mother, a sex offender of that degree should not be allowed near children let alone be responsible for one.  If the man does not want custody the child should be placed into care. Yes they should be required to pay child support regardless of whether the Father holds custody (Paid to the state/carer instead)

It seems copypasted but that's pretty much because the response is the same for both scenarios in my mind.

Seriously though, do we even really know Alpharius got rekt after all?
Well it was either him or Omegon <.<

Pity that it was bloody rowboat that got them though, most dishonorobu.
Thought that the information on it was sketchy even from the Ultrasmurf side and the guy presenting info on it was an Alpha  Legionnaire? I thought that for all we know Alpharius could've killed Gulliman and disguised himself as him and then took control of the Ultramarines.

Except rowboat got pegged by pegboy incarnate with that bloody anathame that should have been buried six feet deep in Erebus's traitorous hide <_<
So that's not really very well planned out.

So you can walk just fine now?
<______<

Close enough yes, I've still got a bit of a limp but it's not really noticeable now.

Shit I'm vitamin D deficient and Calcium deficient. Am I going to end up like you? I've had lots of vitamin D since I've been out every day in Florida but calcium is a problem still.
Depends, if you end up not being able to walk outside for the best part of two years you might end up like me <.<

If you get some sun every day and drink a glass of milk, that should keep you fine. I was under the 'doctor going "bloooooody hell" tier' compared to most who have a minor deficiency >.> So you'd have to be really buggered to end up half crippled like past-me lol.
Did you never go outside or something?
Pretty much

Two badly ingrown toenails = blood whenever I walked, add depression/anxiety to that and it's easy enough to see why I sat inside and rotted away for a while. Got it all sorted now, hence I'm no longer a degenerating miserable old man at the age of 19. Lol.
youre 19? You sound so much older than me. If never guess you'd have been my age.
Almost 20, just two months away but yeah >.>
wow I'd have thought you were like 23-24 or something. You're too mature for a teen.
Welp I had to grow up quite early so that might be why, but hey a miserable childhood prepares you better for the real world than a blissful and sheltered one would. I should probably thank mummy dearest for this someday lol.

1. Don't exaggerate your qualifications or lie about yourself. Employers have a great bullshit detector and even if they don't, will look into your background to see if you're telling porkies.

2. Be confident. It's sounds cheesy and cliched, but it's pretty much the key. You could have all of the qualifications in the world and employers still wouldn't hire you if you come off as an awkward aspie that can't even make basic eye contact.

3. Research the company beforehand. You don't have to have an extensive list of the entire company's history in the back of your head, but it helps to know a bit about the organisation you could potentially be working for, and it shows that you're actually interested and committed.

4. Suit up and boot up. Don't come to an interview in skinny jeans, high tops and a hoodie (I've actually seen people do this in group interviews). You're not expected to wear a three piece or something, but a shirt (a tie if you want but it's not essential), smart trousers and shoes is absolutely paramount. You want to look smart and dedicated for the job you're enrolling into.

Should be easy enough given that I have none beyond my GCSEs and an AS level <.<
But yeah, lying isn't my thing especially over something serious. A good point though <.<

Here's hoping on that bit though, I think I should be alright but I'm hoping that nerves don't get the better of me.

>.> Bit trickier given that it's a local cornershop but I think it's got some sort of franchise link so yeah that might be worth some googling.

Heh of course <.<
I have a few decent smart clothes, not suit stuff but that should be fine <.<

Thanks for the tips >.>

8571
Well with a bit of luck I should be able to move to a more relevant job in 6 months or so, maybe a year it depends <.<
Not to sound like such a downer, but I said the exact same thing when I got my first job and I'm still there now. Well, I have worked for different employers in that time period, but it's still practically same shit different place.

Though being a student, I still have that as an excuse for not having a better job.
Hmm yeah >.>

Well on the plus side, I've already got work shadowing with Clinical Psychologists lined up in the next couple of months so hopefully if that goes well they will be able to point me towards a supplier that has a vacancy but if not then I should be in a good position to apply for one myself having done said work experience with them >.>

« on: April 19, 2015, 12:26:51 PM »
yeah but

we don't have english speakers to peer review that shit before it gets marketed internationally or what
Some do, some don't.

As I recall the SNK/AOT stuff was made by some doujinshi who was amused by a drunk guy in the same coffee shop as him, so rather than it being done by a large studio with international links some random bloke doing it in his spare time and then it becoming a hit tends to lead to some rather odd results.

It should have had a proper translated title before being sent to international markets but going by the success of it, it really didn't make much difference.

anime always seem to have retarded names

Attack on Titan? Why not "Attack of the Titans"? Or would that be too cliché.
Steins;Gate? Ooh, a semicolon. Without a space, too. So artsy.
Fate/stay night? Just a word salad. With some more pretentiously-placed punctuation.

i know it's probably explained in the anime themselves but i don't give a fuck

Mostly for the same reason that Yanks/Westerners wear shirts with Kanji on them, it usually means absolute gibberish in Japanese same as most animus have gibberish/stylistic titles when done in english.

The AOT one specifically is because the people behind it have a pretty poor understanding of english in general so the 'official' translations for things tend to not actually match up to the actual translation. i.e
Shingeki no Kyoujin
goes somewhat literally into
Advance of the Large People (So Titans for a western word)

Advance:Shingeki is a military style term afaik, so when an army advances on a city it's attacking said city. Engrish it up a bit and you arrive at Attack on Titan, which is a pretty poor translation.

Welcome to the abyss, brother. Enjoy a life of shattered ambitions, deprived hope and -10% discount.

I would actually mention you're a mod for a popular website (NEVER MENTION THE ACTUAL PLACE THOUGH, FOR GOD'S SAKE!).

Shows responsibility, able to talk to a variety of arseholes people and ability to diffuse somewhat tight situations.

E.g. Some crazy shopper verbally abusing you because of the price of Tetley Tea or something, when you have literally fuck-all to do with the pricing.
I kind of already have a bit too much of the corpse that lives in a library thing going on so I don't think I'd bring it up. Unless I can lie about having some sort of a social life etc <.<
