What ACAMS has done for this community cannot be understated. Hosting the forum for years, giving us a place to talk. As legends of the game go, he'll always be right up there. I for one cannot express my gratitude enough. I believe (Though correct me if I'm wrong), that he is also the reason we got the 1.3 patch.
Thanks, ACAMS. I hope your free time treats you well andyou get done what you want in life. 829

At least that's a vaguely relevant topic to print. I've seen some print those topics in tech support that get 1 reply.

Off-Topic Discussion / Re: General Chatter Thread« on: November 17, 2012, 09:32:24 AM »Got an interview at Manchester University on Thursday. This should be fun. Politics at Nottingham, Birmingham, York, Southampton, Sheffield. Would have applied to Oxford/Bristol/Bath/Warwick but my predicted grades aren't good enough. A*ABB (Typically, the A* and A are in the only 2 subjects I do with any political relevance. Wish I'd done econ now. But I just have to get on with it, and anyway, it's not like I've failed by not going to Oxford or whatever) Just actually have to apply... Hope your interview went well. 834

Off-Topic Discussion / Re: Songs That Changed Your Life« on: November 11, 2012, 03:07:33 AM »
There's only 1 song here I can say.
Parklife, by Blur. Listening to that 2 1/2 years ago was what really turned me onto music. Before that I listened to R.E.M. but that was it. After Parklife, I went nuts. 837

Off-Topic Discussion / Re: General Chatter Thread« on: November 06, 2012, 02:11:08 PM »mother ****er you dont know who the **** i am, you are a fag who likes sticking it in guys asses and you best believe that you’d be the one getting crammed in your ****in rear by my Ukranian Fort-500 shotgun before i blow your ****ing guts out your chest you faggit little bitch your ****ing pathetic you best hope i never head to your town, i’ll find yeah and shank you in your sleep, you wanna die mother****er? faggit little cracker, hahaha I betyou aint ever even gotten and coochie, huh? ever got any pussy? i dont even keep count anymore, but it is definately past 35 cuz thats where i lost count bout a year or two ago, added a few since then, so ask yourseld, should your faggit no coochie gettin bitch ass maybe try to shut the **** up, or do you want to hear more about how ****in gay and lame you are? you cocksucking homo bastard go kill yourself you worthless chunk of sh**, your useless and lame as ****, and i cant wait to show your gay ass faggit no roastin abilities, you couldn’t talk sh** even if you ate sh**, go slit your wrists you aint cool at all give up on your gay ass lifeWhy are you such an idiot? You jaundiced jumped up, vercordiously pusillanimous piffle. Your vileseome existence nauseates me beyond compare. It is politically correct when discussing your faults to use certain words to denote your humanness above your disability. But in your case, there is nothing human. You are just challenged, you are just different. Given a choice of stepping in something nasty on the sidewalk, or bidding you good morning, I would happily choose the former. Single-handedly, you have wrenched all meaning out of life. Congratulations. As I write this I try vainly to think of something, anything, which redeems in some small way your utterly pointless existence. The only thing that comes to mind is that you have taught me hate. Pure, unmitigated hate. I have had fantasies about attacking you with a machete, but I dare not. I once cut up a starfish, which was so neurologically simple that each piece grew into a clone of the original. Your coleopteron brain no doubt shares certain appalling similarities with such creatures. You, misguided as you are, might be asking yourself what you have done to deserve such a letter as this. Your misdeeds and villainous vampings can be described in just two words: you exist. And believe me, there is no reason on earth why you should. How do you justify to yourself waking up each morning and ruining yet another day? If everything in this world has some purpose, some grand plan behind its existence, then yours surely is to show everything else, whether it be a slops bucket in a fried chicken stand, or the gunk behind the fridge, how fortunate it is not to be you. I have tried, but clearly, I have failed. I must stand firm to the realisation that mere words cannot express my utmost and profound contempt and loathing for your person, your being and your existence. You are a blight against nature.What the **** did you just ****ing say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the **** out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my ****ing words. You think you can get away with saying that sh** to me over the Internet? Think again, ****er. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re ****ing dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill yo in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little sh**. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your ****ing tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will sh** fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re ****ing dead, kiddo.Er wha? That's the remark that set you over the edge?It's a copypasta I have something important I need to tell you. I anticipate it will result in my receiving a barrage of angry e-mail from Virus Bomb accusing me of being cruel, but Virus Bomb relies on stichomancy to "prove", inter alia, that we ought to worship termagant, appalling warlords as folk heroes. What follows is the story of how he can be so rich in the rhetoric of democracy and yet so poor in its implementation. Virus Bomb has been causing a lot of wahala by seeking vengeance on those unrepentant souls who persist in challenging his announcements. The denial of this fact only proves the effrontery, and also the stupidity, of postmodernist, obtuse warmongers. He will hate me for saying this, but immoralism, phallocentrism, and gangsterism follow his footsteps. Wherever Virus Bomb goes, such things are sure to sprout up. The implication is that he must have some sort of problem with reading comprehension. That's the only explanation I can come up with as to why he accuses me of admitting that he can bring about peace and prosperity for the whole of humanity through violence, deception, oppression, exploitation, graft, and theft. What I actually said is that it's really not bloody-mindedness that compels me to challenge rather than accommodate the mainstream's presuppositions. It's my sense of responsibility to you, the reader. Virus Bomb claims that the only way to expand one's mind is with drugs—or maybe even chocolate. I claim that the absurdities within that claim speak for themselves although I should add that the real question here is not, "Why do we put up with Virus Bomb?". The real question is rather, "What sort of severe tunnel vision has led Virus Bomb to suspect that he is the arbiter of all things?" On the surface, it would seem to have something to do with the way that without checks and balances, picayunish underachievers are free to numb the public to the exclusionism and injustice in mainstream politics. But upon further investigation one will find that society must soon decide either to get people to stop believing lies that were forged in the fiery pits of hell or else to let Virus Bomb create widespread psychological suffering. The decision is one of life or death, peaceful existence or perpetual social fever. I can hope only that those in charge realize that there are few certainties in life. I have counted only three: death, taxes, and Virus Bomb doing some malignant thing every few weeks. Now that this letter has come to an end, I indisputably hope you walk away from it realizing that Virus Bomb interprets his easy meanness as unselfish philanthropy. |
