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.

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.

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.

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'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.

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.

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.
