  1. Both of you are banned for not having a flashy signature like mine.
  2. Banned for using abbreviations instead of actual words.
  3. I got an idea. Let's see who can post the cutest pics, gifs, or videos. I'll start.
  4. Allot of caffeine and driving lessons. Not a good combo.

  5. Going on vacation to Myrtle Beach with my family. If you could be the opposite sex for a day, what is the first thing you'd do?
  6. Interestingly enough, the song stuck in my head right now is also related to why I changed my profile pic to Hatsune Miku. lol. the thumbnail look like my avatar. Yep, I'm hooked on vocaloid... ...seriously I listened to this song like a thousand times already, send help.
  7. I was a pure agnostic for about 3 years starting at 13. Then at 16 I declared myself an agnostic atheist. I went through sort of an antitheistic phase at 17 and a quarter of my 18th. In a month I'll be 19, and I've somewhat changed in my attitude towards certain religious concepts. One in particular being reincarnation. I like the idea that you could one day be an underprivileged poverty stricken citizen, then die, and come back as someone who grows up to be an astronaut or someone who contributes to society in some other way. I don't subscribe to any religion and do still call myself an atheist, but I just like little thought experiments like this. I'm particularly turned off by any religion that has to threaten it's followers to ensure their faith. Prime Example: You're going to receive eternal punishment if you don't do *blank*. It's just as ridiculous as the "Heaven's Gate" crowd who poisoned themselves to board a fictional alien ship because they believed a comet was going to destroy earth. Heaven's Gate had to threaten it's followers into committing an action to escape an invisible threat. The same with "born-again" Christianity, where you have to ask God for forgiveness to escape Satan's eternal wrath (which can only conveniently be confirmed after you die; which is the same for Heaven's Gate). Difference is that Heaven's Gate is a cult and Christianity is a religion. They both use the same tactics of threatening people to gain followers, so they're really no different in that aspect. The primary reason why I don't take too kindly to any religion that threatens eternal damnation is the improbability of it all. If you're incorrect, who's hell are you going to? Some ancient religion's hell that is no longer believed by anybody in the modern day? I see the concept of eternal punishment as more of tool to spread any religion or cult. In fact, it's the perfect tool to do so. Think about it. If I wanted to start a cult or religion (to make money of course), I would throw out the message that if you didn't subscribe to my specific set of beliefs, you'd be eternally damned and tortured without end in the afterlife. Anybody who hasn't caught onto the pattern yet would have no choice, but to join my cult and encourage their loved ones and friends to do so as well, to save themselves and others from the invisible threat I've made up in my head. This is why I see any religion like this as particularly unbelievable, and also why I reject allot the world's major religions. Anyways that's my little slice of thought for why I'm an atheist. Not trying to start an argument here, but if I'm going to introduce myself on a thread like this, I might as well give my full rational for being who I am.
  8. I sleep in the city streets, so it looks like you're in trouble.
  9. You know I crank the temperature in my house down to 0 to save on heating bill's right? That and it doesn't seem like your clothes are anywhere in sight. Have a nice walk home.
  10. This wouldn't be the first time I got screwed over by a moderator.
  11. Libertarian Left To summarize my entire position: I'm anti-authoritarian. I've seen that both sides of the spectrum can be just as bad in wanting to control people's lives, so I see no point in picking right or left. Rick Santorum wanting to ban pornography... Hillary Clinton wanting to ban guns... fuck off the both of you. I should always have the right to protect myself with a firearm and to watch my erotic entertainment till the day I die. And no politician is going to tell me otherwise.
  12. Doom 4. Have been ever since I began winter break. haven't stopped... ...send help.
