What is your view on wealth?
I guess you could say my parents are rich, they own their own business (courier) and so earn a good amount, and I can sometimes get something if I need it (eg my old comp was broken, and I needed a faster one anyways, so mum bought me a new laptop, because I was to use it mainly for school work :-w too bad it has intergrated memory, because I want to upgrade the video card :wall: oh well, I'll end up needing a fast system anyways (want to do video editing when I leave school, plus I multitask like crazy, and will have my own network when I get my own place) yet I will still use the laptop, due to it's portability and will set it up as a Linux system (dual booting atm due to my games not being Linux compatible plus I don't wanna have to move them to another folder and try to use WINE)

So, I'm bored.. Who doesn't accept Evolution?
meh, no thanks, I hate biology, so glad I can drop it next year \ and you point about the moths is not evolution, it is just an example of that breed of moths becoming 'extinct' in that area, due to an abnormal growth in death by birds. Also one thing I don't understand, is how when something evolves it ends up causing it's offspring to have it's traits, at a high enough rate to cause all of the species to have it. Like (say for example) there is a country, lets call it Place. Now in Place everyone has blue eyes, except one person, who has brown eyes. Now according to evolution theories, everyone is Place could end up with brown eyes, yet my reasoning and logic tell me it can't!

So, I'm bored.. Who doesn't accept Evolution?
I don't and never will, and also there are others than theists who don't believe in evolution, I have several friends who niether believe in a God, nor evolution. I have found it to be flawed in many ways, one example is this species of insect (can't seem to find it's name) shoots some firey substance (may be an acid substance) from its abdomen. The weird thing about this is not that it can do that, but if it fired it in a fully automatic way, it would kill the insect too, yet if shoots it in bursts, leaving itself unharmed. Now for this animal to have evolved it would have had to have developed this substance (highly unlikely), have the insides immune to the substance (even more unlikely) then learn how to aim it correctly (would take too long to calculate the possibilty of it happening) then, be able to shoot it in bursts so as not to kill themselves, they would have to learn before using it (calculate that possibilty, using your logic)

not true, we are not killing the species, it's things like depression, drugs, abuse, a can't-do attitude, hatred, alcohol they are killing our species

2012: The Year the Internet Ends

Parental Controls, are you cursed by them?
never had parental blocks, never will, dad can't do ANYTHING with a computer (literally) and mum trusts me enough, plue she doesn't know a thing about my 2nd boot (Ubuntu) other than the fact that I have it \ we were so close to bypassing the school restrictions so we could do whatever on them, too bad it is impossible to bypass the Board Of Studies for free internet, except by using a mobile (cell) as a satelite modem

Is God real post your thoughts!
150 years ago we abolished slavery 100 years ago was the emancipation of women 50 years ago was inter-racial marriage now its same-sex marriage why is it that the church is always dragged in kicking and screaming to the tolerance and compassion that it ironically says it holds a monopoly on. I don't know what emancipation is, but if churches had issues with inter-racial marriage then that is apalling! If they were against the abolishment of slavery then I am ashamed to be called one of them, it is just that aweful. Not only that but there are many good reasons apart from "God says so" for why homosexuality is wrong. I would share them with you, but I am having a mental blank, and a huge urge to play guitar what if the greatest deception the devil ever pulled on us was to create religion. to convince him to devote his life to mindless rituals, self-depreciation and violent prejudices. of course the devil cannot exist without the premise of religion. since it is a construct of it. No, the greatest lie the devil ever created was that he doesn't exist. For if he doesn't exist then people don't need to be saved from him, therefore they don't need to ask God fore forgiveness. It doesn't matter what you believe, if you don't believe the devil is real then you do not need to be saved. i personally stopped reading the bible the first time when i read that god rested on the seventh day. i asked my reverend why god, who was all powerfull would need a day for rest? a hush fell over the church and i have never been back to that place. its funny how a simple question by an inquisitive 12 year old can cause confusion amongst people who have spent there entire lives devoted to its cause. You expect your reverend to know everything? Who can honestly tell us why God did something, for everything He did? I can only guess and say that He did it to look at what He had created, and so that others may also rest on that day and admire what He had made, and also so that they could rest. That is only my guess though. It is said in the bible that we should kill homosexuals adulterers disobedient children women who are not virgins on their wedding night All non-christians... even though Christ himself was jewish (go figure) Those accused of wickedness by at least two people And any1 who works on the sabbath, that includes you paramedics and fire fighters. please, tell me which verse does it say for us to kill them? These are things God tells us NOT to do (and you forgot on the wedding one, men are to be virgins too, not just the women

HAHAHA SHUT UP YOU PAPER OVEN! THAT IS CLASSIC! I give the little boy 100 points on creativity, 20 points on the OWNED scale, and 20 points on execution. But, sadly he fails with a score of 140/300. I say he was a noob. Anyways, this isn't really a BAD kid, but we were playing with a Freaking 7 year old GIRL who was master with the sniper! SHE IS 7 AND WAS PLAYING AT 10:00... Aren't they in bed by now? What is this world coming to? Anyways, if anyone wants to join my clan, we are taking any and all above the age of 13 (Aquariusman (Bigfoot) is the only exception with his age of -100 :lol: ). We have a proper ceremony to greet you, and we have a very fun ranking system and do alot together. why is there no ninja in gender? are you dissing my gender? and people can have a birthdate for Feburary 31st? rofl

Halo Discussion thread
I teh pwnzors at Monster Trucks :D Explain Monster Trucks. And rush, you were in that shotty snipers match, right? Do you remember how much we lost by? 2-8 people floating over the cliff on standoff, trying to push each other off of a floating platform with a mongoose, ghost, chopper, wraith, or warthog. Last one alive wins the round. Anything counts except for shooting with the guass, wraith or chopper. Very very fun I think about half the pics I took were from 1 game on it, it is awesome, almost on par with infection, and awesome with 8+ people who all teabag and do everything for the lols (basically I less than three it )

Need mp3 player
I myself have an iriver e10 and I swear it was made for me, once dropped it and someone accidentally kicked it, and it was still playing music. It also has a remote built into it for just about every tv known to man, and a few known to monkey. Which is awesome if you, like me, carry your mp3 everywhere (pranks are an added bonus :lol: ) http://www.iriver.com/product/p_detail.asp?pidx=77

thanks for fixing the sound issue, I reinstalled it and it now works perfectly :) and the issue isn't really with the hibernating, it is with the fact that it will say it is connected to the network, yet it isn't and it is difficult to make it connect

2 Ubuntu problems
I recently got Ubuntu, and it's great, except for these two things every time the internet is disconnected or I put it on suspended mode it I have to go and manually configure it which some times takes ages, any way to fix this? and also firefox won't play any sounds, I uninstalled and reinstalled flash player to no effect. I have searched through the preferences, but have not found anything odd I am running Ubuntu 8.4.0 Desktop LTD and also downloaded all the updates last night, so I am guessing that my drivers are up to date, right? and everything else has sound, so I don't understand it.

Had a new one today, I was playing gaol rules soccer and I had shoulder barged a guy, so he tackled me and twisted my neck! I heard and felt this loud crack and I thought I was going to die. Next thing I know some guy is standing above me saying "...2...3... you'reeeeee out!"
