Islam Ads on Buses
Yay! This will hopefully make people call this line when having questions! :thumbsup: Or will it? I really don't think it will have much affect, but I don't see how it can make anything worse, other than people thinking of Islam as annoying.

9/11 7 years later
I remember that my mum told me that a plane had crashed in a building somewhere in the US. I had never heard about it before, and I didn't care much, because I was used to hearing news about many people dying and stuff. I don't understand why this has become such a tragedy. If you say "Haha! 9/11!", you will be hated, because almost 3000 people died in a plane crash on that date. If you say "Haha! Bad water!", no-one cares, even though bad water kills 40,000 children alone every day. Do we even think about that tsunami in Thailand anymore?

Homosexuality: Right or Wrong?
* Yaaaaaaaaaawn... Been reading through some of the pages... * Not a choice. Hence, not wrong. If it was a choice, why would so many people kill themselves for being homosexual?

Paranormal Experience
Just disagreeing with me doesn't make me a troll. Calling me dangerous because I disagree with you makes you a troll. And I admit, I only called you a troll so I could use that cute picture. :cry: If someone would talk about such object two hundred years ago, you would most likely be declared as mentally ill. If we go further back, you might even get burnt as a witch. Imagining things from the future has been a little destroyed now, as we imagine flying stuff and teleportation, but there will probably be real things from the future you would look upon as insane.

Am I really going to get in trouble? (Internet Harassment)
I suppose this happens a lot, don't worry. But just in case, I would advice you to stop abusing this service. In addition, can you imagine anyone who really wants to has a job that consists of answering questions from people who are mad at your company? Can you imagine any of those workers looking forward to going to work? Close to everyone having this job has it because no other jobs were available. They are having a crappy job for your pleasure! Leave the proletarians alone!

Paranormal Experience
That's not bad because this angel is not proven false, it is bad because you will kill people for money. Believing that something is true until it's proven false means that you don't deny anything, not that you arrange your live as if it exists. My friend had an experience which is a perfect example of how his senses and his logic deceived him: As his vision is not too good, he wears glasses most of the time. These glasses have been approved by doctors and everything, and my friend believed that he saw the world as other people see it. One day, he got a new examination, and discovered that he had been wearing the wrong type of glasses his whole life. He got the right type of glasses, and suddenly, his vision was a lot clearer. He asked himself: "Whoa! Has the world always looked like this?" So all in all, you are not a good troll.

Kid Kills Himself Recreating Halo
How the bloody 'ell can you say an 11 year-old is so stupid that he deserves to die? :wall:

Kid Kills Himself Recreating Halo
Haha! Neither will I. :lol: The media blames what the parents want to blame. No-one wants to realise that they are bad parents; they want to blame it all on the game.

About coincidences
It might have been something like that, but it's still an interesting coincidence. A coincidence isn't necessarily weird. Sometimes they are just plain interesting.

About coincidences
A few days ago, I was tidying my room. When I was doing that, I suddenly started thinking about a joke I read in a book (I think the English version is called the Rabbis are laughing, by Abraham Hochwald) once. Two seconds after I started thinking about that joke, I found that book beneath a pile of paper. When I had not seen that book in a while, I opened it. When I now opened it, I got to the page where I read this joke. I would call this a quite interesting coincidence, but let's us not forget that interesting coincidences are bound to happen now and then. How many times have I not been thinking about that joke without finding the book? Have any of you got any interesting coincidences to share with the rest of us? [hide=And if you must know, here is the joke](Translated from Norwegian) The Yeshiva student Motel Rosenwasser was about to meet his future bride, Reisele, for the first time. "What am I going to say to her? I have never in my life spoken to a girl before," he said to the sjadkan. "It is quite simple. Talk to her about love, family and philosophy." Motel eventually got to be alone with Reisele, and started talking about the subject "love": "Tell me, Reisele, do you love loksjes (noodles)?" "No, I don't love noodles." Then the subject "love" was used. He started on "family": "Does your brother love noodles?" "I don't have a brother." Now only the subject "philosophy" was left. "Tell me, Reisele, if you were to have a brother, do you think he would love noodles?"[/hide]

Government conspiracies
I have the same problem. When you say "the governments", does that mean "the American governments"? It doesn't really matter, as North America is just one big conspiracy made by the Internet. The whole continent is completely made up. All the people living there and all the pop-cultural stuff come from programs. But how can that be? I've been to North America! Ah, yes. I have also "been" to North America. This is the cunning part of this scheme. When you "go to North America", you go to take a plane, boat or whatever, and you get shipped of to a secret island in the Pacific. There, you get put into some kind of vacation goo, which creates your trip. But how can this be? I live in North America! No you don't. You're just a program. Shut up. [hide=Felling annoyed by my post?]No, I don't think this, and I don't post this to spam. It's just to remind us that we can never be sure about anything.[/hide]

Reveal Confessions, Secrets & Regrets...
(This story takes place when I was seven years old) I once borrowed a book from the school library. The week after, we went to the library again. This time, I forgot to bring the book. I was terrified that someone would find out that I didn't deliver the book when we were supposed to. I could not handle the shame of delivering a book four hours later than I should, so I hid it in my shelve(yes, most Norwegian primary schools have shelves where pupils store stuff). When the semester had passed, I smuggled the book out of school, and went up to the woods outside my house. There I placed the book and hid it behind a bush. It's still there. :lol: My teachers asked about it quite a lot for a set period of time, but it passed eventually.

Abortion
Sperm can not develop without another organism, hence it is not a potential human. I know it might seem silly, but you have to draw a line somewhere. We know very little about when life starts; for all we know, a "soul" can be connected to the embryo once it is created. Guns don't kill people. People with guns growing up in a violent culture supporting capital punishment kill people. :P
-
Abortion
No. I am against abortion unless in extreme cases, such as rape. The moment the two cells have joined each other, I consider it a potential human being. I honestly see no difference in abortion and killing people in their sleeps. Neither of those currently know they exist. However: I have some touch with reality, and I realise that making abortion illegal will not solve anything. We don't need more unwanted children and people paying immense amounts of money for dangerous removal of foetuses. We should rather put more effort into sex ed. In addition: Can't having an abortion also be a quite traumatic experience?

2012: The Year the Internet Ends
Completely agree! : Besides, who owns the internet? No-one owns the internet, so I don't believe all ISP providers are under this agreement. If this is right, I think a new version of the Internet will be made.

the $100 laptop
$100 for people in Third World Countries. If anyone with more wealth wants one, they will have to pay $200, which buys a computer to someone in a Third World Country. It's a nice idea, but I think the resources could have been placed more wisely, like stated in earlier posts. I heard a story about a test project where the makers gave the computers to some children. The children didn't think they were good enough. :roll: (But this was not from a reliable source.)

Working out topic
I don't really know why, but I have always hated the concept of working out. I ride my bike to school and back again (4 km each way) and do some extra biking and walking, and that is how I keep fit. Sometimes I might do some pushups, but I still hate the concept. And speaking of working out, I had a quite amusing conversation with someone from a gym last year. Ohai thar! Do you go to a gym? No. You should start going to our gym! Why? Because you will get in a better shape, which will last for the rest of your life! I am starting to get annoyed, and I want to end the conversation Well, sadly, I am not sure of how long I have left to live. She gets a bit surprised and says: ... But... You look like you're just fine... (Like I'm really offended) "Look like"?! Then she got quiet, and I left. I am not too happy about überhappy people trying to force on me their lifestyle.

Black History Month Alternatives
Indeed, comrade! I don't really know what the BHM is, but I refuse "just Google it" because someone had to be too imperialistic to explain it in this topic. However, the little impression I have gotten from this tradition, is that it only leads to wining. It should rather be "Equality Month" or something, like Ginger said.

Taxation
In my glorious land of welfare, I pay my taxes with a smile. I don't really know much about taxes for all of the world, but I have heard somewhere that we have quite high taxes here in the Nordic countries. The taxes we pay mostly go to health services and roads and such. A little go to sending military troops to Afghanistan, but it's mostly beneficial.

Cultrally diverse
I don't really know how race got into this discussion, but I'm nerdy to the extreme and whiter than sourcream, and I don't know anyone who wears shoes inside. It is simply a no-thing to do here in Norway.

The Death Clock
What did you put as mode? Perhaps smoking will calm you down and benefit you in the long run?
-
The Death Clock
That is my death clock with pessimistic. I think my mode is somewhere between pessimistic and sadistic, so I'll die between the age of 36 and 50. I won't have to get old! :lol:
