Life?
 

What are your opinions on life? Do you enjoy being alive? Isn't it the most miraculous thing ever?

Sure it's hard sometimes, and yeah, I think we all have difficulty accepting some parts of it, but as bad or as good as it gets, I'm really, really glad to have the experience of being alive. And being human. So at least I have the intelligence to appreciate it.

I'm drunk. But I thought the "Death?" topic needed a light-hearted counterpart.

Life would be better if you could mod it.

But yeah, still pretty good.

But are we even alive? Cogito Ergo Sum my friend.

You just answered your own question.

I mean, it's not necessarily a great answer but it is an answer and you did ask the question.

I don't get it.

Neither do I, perhaps I tried to answer my own question in rhetoric, therefore closing the thread?

Or perhaps you're the architect of your own misfortunes.

I suppose so. But then, aren't we all? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

That would be fucking awesome.

¬_¬ You can mod it, it's called hard work you lazy fucks.

Do I...Enjoy being alive? Well since I don't know what the alternative is really like, I'm going to say that yes, yes I do.

We're all experiencing something that appears to be tangible and real to us. Even if it may simply be a perception thing (who knows?), I think that counts as being alive in some way.


In most games you can save and load your games - If that could be applied to RL too, I'd be happy. Or the ability to control time.

I think anything else god-like (like being invincible or magically being able to have whatever you like instantly) would make life boring after a while.

Eh maybe I missed your point here.

Meh... its ok I guess.

Calm down, jeez.

Emo. I bet that you live by the following motto:

For sale: ONE HEART,
~horrible condition~ will take anything for it
Just hurry up and cut the thing out so I can end my suffering!

>=)

I WILL NOT CALM DOWN, STOP TRYING TO SILENCE ME MAAN.

Ooh a better one, "No one ever dies a virgin coz in the end life fucks us all."

What the fuck is wrong with you? Did something fall on your head?

No one knows, I think I'm trying to stay happy, shit hit the fan tonight RL.

You know somehow I don't think making a fool of yourself on a forum is gonna help you in any way.

Darkhoodness speaks words of both wisdom and kindness.

Do yourself a favour and go to bed.

Life is a decent cereal. I'm pretty indifferent on anything else "Life" may refer to.

Bullshit. Cinnamon life is the best. Especially if you put it in a PB&J sandwich. With a nice chocolate milk to wash it down, of course.

I want to give you +rep so bad, but it says I can't.

I'm thanatophobic. The idea of not being alive, of not having a consciousness with which to sense anything, utterly terrifies me. I'm talking "panic attack" level fear, and it gets worse if I even entertain the idea that it won't last forever. I know it's coming someday, there's nothing I can do to stop it from happening. Even now, just typing this out, I can feel one of the panic attacks coming on.

You bet your sweet ass I enjoy being alive.

There, I've posted. Quick, someone talk about bees.

Damn that does sound good. Like a bachelor's thanksgiving dinner. Gonna have to whip one up.

I think life is more on the nutella side of things.

Cereal as a sandwich filler? Better be damned tasty cereal for that to work.

I don't think they sell "Life" in UK supermarkets. Judging by how Amazon sells it at nearly £7 for a 425g pack, I guess they import it.

Man I regret missing dinner.

Could be worse

life, i mean

Cereal works too.

The beauty of the peanut butter and jelly sandwich is that almost ANYTHING can be thrown into the mix. One of my favorite concoctions is strawberry preserves, creamy skippy brand peanut butter, a handful of lays potato chips, and a sprinkling of Cap'n crunch berries all in between two slices of extra thick cinnamon raisin bread, which is then cooked in a skillet like a grilled cheese. You know, with butter. It's fucking amazing.

For more artery clogging goodness, add thick cut pepper bacon to said sandwich.

SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT SHIT YOU PUT ON ICE CREAMS

GAWD

(Ice cream vans in Slovakia offer peanut butter as a topping, so stfu)

Anyway...

Yeah. Me and Ridg3 had talked about this years ago. (Dynamithix agrees), the limit of modding existence is neverending. Oh, and shut up Darkhoodness...you've never tried it. There's a god-damned fuck-knows amount of memory for you to fuck about with.

The governments in everyworld. Think about it, it's like a 'World Simulator' in your hands. Plus a self insert. Did I mention you can add FUCKING DINOSAURS. LIKE TYRANNOSAURUS REX? DEINONYCHUS? ARGENTINOSAURUS!?

I'd take a fuck-knows amount of time improving every human's approval of me to 100%.

Then, exploit their loyalty to make me uncontested President of the World.

This thread perplexes me on so many levels.

That's good. That means you are distracted for long enough, so that we can reach into the cookie jar and steal them =D

What do people think on the sanctity of life? I.e, do you think that human life is sacred or not? This question extends to people who are religious or not. Personally I believe that this is true and that suicide is never the answer, furthermore, I am of the opinion that abortion is wrong unless it is for a select few cases like if a girl was raped and does not want the child.

Do you think non-human life is sacred? If not; why do you differentiate?

I think humans are some of the unsacred things ever to exist.


For me, something sacred is something pure and innocent. And trust me, animals are far closer to being sacred than humans.

Also we already have several abortion discussion.
But to keep it on topic. I don't feel life or new life is necessary. I find people's obsession with it off-putting... We're like 6 billion+ people now on planet earth. To think that each and everyone of us is important and sacred is really just grasped for a meaning out of nowhere. I think more people should get abortions, so that we can minimize our population a bit, and stop chopping down forests to find to places to live.

In the end, it all doesn't matter. We live, we die, and what happens beyond that is just a mystery,

This is all just my personal opinion :)

So you don't mind if I kill you then?

Dear DI, let me tell you that when I was younger I really wanted to spend the rest of my life in the junk, always wearing the same dirty jacket, pants and boots, never wash my hair, never work, insult annoying people with only "fuck off", feed myself with beer... I'm wondering what changed my mind. You're the one who can understand me.

T-Nex, you would therefore be quite happy to have surgeons hack out the unborn from their mothers before they even had a footprint on the Earth, because to solve a problem we are creating, it is right to kill those who for all we know might end up being art of the solution. We don't have the right to kill other humans, why should we get to decide whether a baby dies or not, I'd put my life in place of an otherwise healthy new-born/ un-born. It seems a very disconnected thought to have.

Jesus christ... When did anything of what I just said equate to me wanting to be killed? Please, if you are going to engage in a conversation, try at least and use a tiny bit of logic.


And STM... As heartless as it may sound... Yes.. I think mothers should have the right to kill their unborn babies. I'm sorry, it is just my belief. I don't hold unborn tissue to the same value as a human being that is outside of the womb and living.
And I don't mean that they don't deserve to live. But think about it. Why is it your business what a woman across the states does with her body? If she loves her unborn baby, whether accidental or not... Then by all means, they should keep it.

But if no one wants it... I just can't look away from the fact that it's a fetus that's not even properly developed yet. Thus I value the living being's(which developed feelings and emotional issues) choice a lot more, than a fetus that probably doesn't even know what's going one.

So... what I'm trying to say, is that I value existing life more than potential life. So if a potential life takes away from an existing living being, then I see a problem with that.

And I didn't mean that I think people should strive for abortions, though I think i may have made it sound that way.

So what about if your mother wanted an abortion for a perfectly healthy child, you would stand by her decision to kill your future brother or sister?

Before the eighth month a baby can learn, before that it can dream and even before that it can think. All the functions of a child.

To answer your question, yes... I'd support my moms decision to decide whatever she does with her body.

And perhaps it can learn. But so can everyone else. I just don't see why an unborn childs happiness is more valuable than an already living being.
