"there'll be a way around it"

Not if people just keep ignoring the fact that oil will run out. Then no one will think about a "way around it" until we need it, and by then it'll be too late.

And with that, I'm out.

It sounds like you think a solution's just gonna magically appear before we need it.

And that is laughable. Of course, if that's not what you think, then be a little more clear on what you do think. You're not saying very much.

Edit: When I said "With that, I'm out."... yeah, I kinda lied.

Posted on 03-22-05 09:45 PM, in Classic Gaming Forum? Link
well, there's almost never any topics on older games in General Gaming, the only forums that ever seem to have mentions of pre-Gamecube/PS2/Xbox games are the FF forum and the SMB forum.

I like Yomiko's idea. Add Classic Gaming, drop FF and SMB forums (or at least FF; the Super Mario series forum does get a reasonable amount of activity), and move their threads to the appropriate forums.

Seriously, I think the FF forum's been dead for over a month.

But who would you sell the tapes to? You killed all the humans. And how would you sell them? You're human, so you killed yourself.

1. Get a life
2. Get married
3. As with other people here, meet online friends offline.

Short list. I'm not particularly ambitious.

Well. With all my complaints about the local school systems, I gotta give them credit for one thing. They never had any teachers forcing opinions on others. They did have teachers attempting to stifle any intelligent discussion of political issues, but that's not that bad.

School is for teaching. Not for raising kids, not for playing games, not for teaching what's right and wrong. It is for teaching the facts, and nothing else. At least, that's what it's supposed to be for. Where did the school system lose sight of that?

Um, what?

Please refrain from making posts which bear little or no relation to the topic at hand.


Judging from the one vote for Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, he was referring to that (with the "whoever is copying it" remark.

I'm gonna have to go with Sonic 3 & Knuckles, though Sonic 2 is a very close second.

Edit: Master M got here before me.

The teachers don't have to do it, but they do. Everything in your text books are trying to get you to start thinking that their world view is correct.


What? Okay, first, you have no fucking clue what school I went to, nor do you know which textbooks we used. Second, the only time we ever really used our textbooks anyway was in Math class (and before you say anything moronic about that, the word problems were dealing with stuff like the perimiter of a sandbox) or for reading Julius Caesar in English.



It is for teaching the facts, and nothing else.

True, but they always try to tell you whats right from wrong, even when you don't see what they are doing.


Again, I must point out that you have no fucking clue what school I went to, and therefore have no fucking clue what the teachers did. Yes, you've irritated me just a little bit with your uninformed blanket statement.



Where did the school system lose sight of that?

When they brought Evalution in to the schools, is when they lost sight of there morals.

Shut up already. That is one of the most moronic things I've ever heard anyone say in a debate forum, ranking right up there with "all millitaries are corrupt" (which wasn't at this board).



Edit: I challange you to try to find out what my belifes are?


I'm gonna resist the obvious personal attack here.

Posted on 03-26-05 08:08 AM, in Random GameStop Employees Being Annoying Link
The GameStop here's not too bad. They won't bug you unless you ask a question, and when you do ask they answer it. Mom's checks never work there, though. They work everywhere else...

Well, that's the one outside the mall. The one in the mall... eh, I doubt many people there know anything about games. =/ We still go there because mom's on some stupid crusade against the one outside the mall - note that she can't use checks here, either. Nevermind that they have better selection and more intelligent and friendly employees (and, is also the one I hope to get a job at very, very soon) outside the mall... I'll stop before I stray further off-topic.

Edit: Holy fuck that was a big mistake.

Posted on 03-26-05 08:27 AM, in PSP :: It's Okay, You Can Touch This One Link
I'll be honest, I don't entirely see the logic in a portable system that uses a disc format. Yeah, it holds more data (and is better for home consoles), but consider durability for a second. People are clumsy. I've dropped a GBC in the rain. The game was ejected by the impact - Pokemon Red, if you were curious. I popped the game back in, and resumed my wanderings from my last save point. If that happened with a CD? At best, the disc would require cleaning. Or, equally likely, it could be scratched, the effects ranging from minorly annoying to rendering the game unplayable.

Meh, as it is the PSP is too damn expensive for me anyway.

Right. Because ignorance is FAR better than knowledge. Of course, that makes sense.

Last I checked, my sex ed classes did not involve teaching people how to have sex. Taught about the risks of it - which, despite what you seem to think, is not instinct - but never actually how to do it.

What kind of school do you go to?

... what?

HGanon, the teachers write the lesson plans themselves. Believe me, I've seen them writing them, I've looked over the lesson plans, it was clearly the teacher's handwriting.

I hope to avoid this turning into a gay marriage debate, but I'm gonna say this.

WHO SAYS MARRIED PEOPLE HAVE TO HAVE KIDS?! There's a lot of hetero couples that never have kids, but you never complain about THAT, do you?

I want this removed. Unfortunately, I have no clue how to do so.

Apparently, someone's not just content to screw up two boards I go to, the little fucker has to follow me everywhere. All I need is the function that deletes posts removed. Don't need the link removed.

Edit: You know what? Fuck it. I'm switching to something more secure. This can be removed.

Not always. There are physical difficulties they can come across that hinder or prevent reproduction. But you've never said we shouldn't let infertile people get married.


windwaker, politics and law will always be influenced by opinions that are unsupported by facts. Not a thing we can really do. It's human nature to make life difficult for people who are different in whatever way, be it religion, sexual orientation, or anything else you can think of.

Well, I tried to stay on topic.

He's not flaming. You're only hearing what you want to hear.

And honestly, I've seen far better layouts than that one. Far, far, far better. White text on a picture doesn't work, m'kay? Nevermind that the picture is apparently supposed to be the focus of your post layout... last I checked, the post was supposed to be the focus of a post layout. =/
