Religion: Habeas corpus fundamentalist / protestant I'm very, very, very confused... quote: Originally written by Eldibs: Yeah, but usually the insulter cares whether or not they get insulted in return. I still think it's funny (and pathetic) that TM feels the need to "prove himself" by insulting everything that walks by. Yeah yeah, we know you hate everyone and everything, we know you love to insult people for stupid reasons, just shut up already TM. You know, if you're insecure enough to still care what TM says, you're no better than him, and it shows a lack of conviction on behalf of your own beliefs. So there. :P -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead. I really, really, really, really hate undead. With a passion.

Will be killing in the future? Or will we be preventing death? But it's practically the same thing when you're deciding who gets to live and who gets to die based on who can afford it. It's dooming people to die when they can't pay to live, which is as semantically close to killing them as possible. EDIT: I hate quote tags.

Dumb question? in Avernum 4
Ephesos Law Bringer Member # 4153	written Tuesday, February 28 2006 10:10 Profile Homepage #8 quote: Originally written by Born Yesterday: —Alorael, who learned the hard way that just because you can beat it up doesn't always mean you should. I've found just as often that it's "Just because you can beat up on it doesn't mean that the next one won't beat up on you." Sometimes, though... it was better to kill things on sight rather than wait for them to attack you. The Spiral Crypt comes to mind... if you don't try to kill stuff ahead of time, you will pay for it. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games."

When you touch the box you go to that place. What you really do is get downloaded into the box. You appear in a virtual recreation of that place. What's more the place doesn't even have to be real. Downloaded into the box? You know, someone would be tempted to liberally apply magnets to said box, resulting in the poor downloaded soul being erased. quote: Originally written by Chocolateking: Also they will be able to download everything you'll learn from pre-school to college onto an incredibly compact disc, so to say. This disc can plug itself onto your forehead, and using the plug download this information into your brain. Possible outcomes: 1) The person's brain would promptly be fried by the information overload. 2) The disc-plugging-into-your-brain would inevitably be adapted for recreational use, possibly surpassing skribbane as a form of escapism. 3) Some radical terrorist group would sabotage the discs so they could brainwash people who were foolhardy enough to use them. 4) Some error (or possibly another terrorist-type aggressor) would corrupt the discs so that ordinarily productive people would become mentally-broken freaks of nature upon plugging in. 5) Microsoft would gain control of the project, causing everyone who plugged in to crash every five minutes. 6) Google would take control of the project, and the verb "to Google" would take on new and uncalled-for meanings. 7) The governments of the world would take control of the project, instituting a thought-control police state via methods already covered in 3). Or, my personal favorite... 8) All of the above. The moral of the story: think about the consequences of stupid inventions before they have a chance to become real. Only you can prevent stupidity. :D EDIT: Post #1111! That feels... I don't know, significant?

Further description would be even more boring than it's already become. (Honestly, if it was anywhere other than here, the "what you're wearing question would be infinitely creepy".

The undead bit... well, I beta-tested Undead Valley. That should explain it pretty well... (shudders at repressed memories) AIGH! Not another skeleton! Make it stop!!! Wait, where am I again?
