Four Lokos
Meh, it's not like people don't mix energy drinks with alcohol all the time. I'd say the people who make the drink know what's safe better than some random guy at a party. Besides it only 12% abv. Granted at 24 oz a can that's like 3-6 beers worth but oh well. Beats going 50-50 with Monster and 151.

That album sounds like a monkey taking a [cabbage] in a blender with a microphone. I much prefer their Eschaton-Present work. An extremely brutal [cabbage].

What are you listening to right now!?
... you do know he got banned, right? ._o A Comet Appears, by The Shins. :o why is Adrenal always getting banned? I've never seen him do anything wrong. Drown, by Smashing Pumpkins. He posted a certain song which had an abundance of a certain word. It's actually pretty catchy. To unspam: Plug Your Ears, by Hey Rosetta. NOOOO... it's all my fault... I didn't even know. Some one make me a Free Adrenal t-shirt.

Godville - ELITES = #1 Guild
I lost two bricks and got a death added from the 4 times I've used it. I think I got some gold the other time.

Literature
I haven't managed to finish it in any of my attempts. I think I got to page 150 on my last one, but I would have to start at the beginning again since I don't remember it.

Vegetarianism
Pop, water, wine, juice, there's other options. In a resturant where there is no vegan menu, it would feel awkard for me not to eat anything; I would be embaraased of myself for listening to my pity whiney rebellious ideals. You're so tolerant it's unbelievable.

What is your motivation?
Aye. Just keep marching along towards death. Why? Death is just as meaningless as life. No reason to live. No reason to die. Nothing to do but keep moving forwards until one blends into the other.

Columbus Day in the United States
Judging from your user title thing I'm guessing you're Native American. Lakota? Never mind its in your sig lol I share the same views as you I'm going to assume. I'll hop in on this when there's more to debate.

I've admittedly been using wikipedia as a back up to my prior knowledge, but I took a native studies class last year and I had a bunch of articles relating to it. I'll look for some I guess. And I think this is why they're seen as the victim saru, other than the fact that they were invaded and murdered: "They traded with us and gave us everything they had, with good will..they took great delight in pleasing us..They are very gentle and without knowledge of what is evil; nor do they murder or steal..Your highness may believe that in all the world there can be no better people ..They love their neighbours as themselves, and they have the sweetest talk in the world, and are gentle and always laughing." That's by Columbus himself. Native people didn't have war in the way Europeans did, there was no reason for them to. Sure they fought other tribes sometimes but there was never real war. Almost all disputes were one on one or settled in "games". In the event that a fight between too tribes broke out, the winning tribe took in the families of the warriors killed and made them part of their own families. I don't want to come off sounding like they were perfect because they weren't but they far more peaceful than the European settlers. I don't want to derail this thread any further, so I'm not going to get really into it. Edit: Link dropping. They are all biased sources to a degree, but it's probably next to impossible to find an unbiased source about this. http://www.indigenouspeople.net/taino.htm http://www.healing-arts.org/spider/tainoindians.htm http://www.glencoe.com/sec/socialstudies/btt/columbus/native_peoples.shtml

But in all, honesty, Columbus didn't purposefully kill and enslave the Indians. That's like blaming (I think it was Einstein?) for the atom bomb being dropped on Japan. Columbus just discovered the Americas, his followers* were the ones who moved in. *As in, those coming after him. Someone obviously knows absolutely nothing about history. Columbus forced the Taíno, the tribe on the island, to mine gold for him and if they didn't meet their quota (which was likely since there was next to no gold on the island) him and his men would cut their hands off and leave them to bleed out. When he returned on I want to say his final voyage (not positive) he found that they had rebelled, and him and his men killed hundreds of them. Edit: it was his second trip actually. No need for harsh words, honestly. This forum is way too quick at jumping on a gun and shooting down people. First off, take it with a grain of salt that you think that Columbus/Settlers were harsh murderers, where if anything they were simply proving Evolution. TTanT disagrees, don't hang him for it. That makes no sense... what does that have to do with evolution at all? And those are historically documented events. I'm not telling him that he should hate Columbus, I was just saying that he was certainly responsible for violence towards native people. Although to be fair the first line wasn't totally necessary.
