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.

Dixanadu 07-12-2011 02:47 PM

Life would be better if you could mod it.

But yeah, still pretty good.

STM 07-12-2011 02:53 PM

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.

STM 07-12-2011 03:18 PM

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

Wings of Fire 07-12-2011 03:20 PM

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

STM 07-12-2011 03:22 PM

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

That would be fucking awesome.

STM 07-12-2011 03:28 PM

¬_¬ 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.

T-nex 07-12-2011 03:36 PM

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?

STM 07-12-2011 03:42 PM

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.

Wings of Fire 07-12-2011 03:48 PM

Darkhoodness speaks words of both wisdom and kindness.

Do yourself a favour and go to bed.

Sekto Springs 07-12-2011 03:49 PM

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

Disgruntled Intern 07-12-2011 04:04 PM

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.

Dipstikk 07-12-2011 04:30 PM

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.

T-nex 07-12-2011 04:34 PM

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

DarkHoodness 07-12-2011 04:47 PM

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.

metroixer 07-12-2011 05:36 PM

Could be worse

life, i mean

Dipstikk 07-12-2011 06:12 PM

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.

Dixanadu 07-12-2011 10:20 PM

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.
