^You do realize that chart is about the hyperinflation in Germany, right?

Where are the stories on the bunnies in the leas >_>.

This was the version I was referring to. Only decent thing about it is the girls in the video. :P I know. I was posting the parody as both a joke and a support of your point :P .

One of my favorite songs, used for such... evil...

:-k I honestly can't think of anything that I've shown/said online that I couldn't or havn't said to someone in real life, excluding those things that are physically possible to translate from cyberspace to real life [such as using images to portray an idea, etc.] . The only real difference I have is finding my voice online. In real life, I rarely if ever show strong emotion, rarely shout, and rarely get angry, but on the forums I can feign such emotions when I need to quite easily, based on the usage of boldface and caps, where appropriate. That, and vocabulary is much easier to find and fix while making a post, whereas in real life all you've got is your head and thinking of the right words on the spot. The use of of internet forums allows one to give off a demeanor of harboring a great deal of loquaciousness and intelligience, even though one would rarely, if ever, hear me talk like the first half of this sentence in real life. Forums don't exactly allow me to express ideas that I wouldn't in real life; they simply allow my to feign strong emotion and talkativeness where needed.

Heh, I'm guilty of that one :P .

I don't hear 'em much on the radio. Though, the stations in my area have frikkin' latched on to "Never Too Late". I loved the song, but hearing it all the time played on every station, and that being the only song ever on by TDG, ugh... want to hear some of the other ones >_<. Lol 94.9 used to play "Pain" every 5 seconds. Actually...now that I think of it...so did WEBN. 96.5 is better than either of them now. Has a much better variety. (Pardon my "only Cinci. people will understand this" post) Eh, I'd agree with you on WEBN- they play the same crap over and over again, almost to the level of Q102. But then again, nothing in existence can reach that level of repetitiveness and mainstream crappyness. ...[Ugh, makes me want to rip my ears out just passing that station]. 94.9's variety is pretty dang good if you ask me, even if it does get a little mainstream every once in a while. It's my top station currently, but I don't listen to 96.5 much so I'll have to tune into 'em more before I can make a good comparison. Err, ya, pardon again for the whole Cinci thing...

' what? cause i dont have an afro.. lol.. who cares, it are just rs names She doesn't care; it was a lighthearted joke :| . Might I ask what brand of gel you use? Dats some [bleep]eh hair.

Oh, tangendo. It means "touching him".

Wait, where does the "warm" come from there? All I'm reading from that is "place of silence" :-s . Maybe I'm just losing my touch with the language after over half a year of not taking it >_<. (Note: You're right, got confused with the above posts. The warm doesn't come there at all -bluelancer)

Tagendo? Sure it wasn't a mistake/typo where you found it? Don't think there are any Latin verbs with a tag- prefix in existence. I've seen plenty of songs that use Latin phrasing that are completely and utterly incorrect in terms of vocabulary and grammar. This might not be an exception to that.

trade pl0x? If only >_<.

Going to school next year out of state too. Funfun. Can't think of anything other than Nadril's points. Just make sure not to be too rash about what you do, and don't expect your parents to fold immediately. It's guna work out, one way or another.

mrpez, I'd like to call BS on your statement that you act the same online and in real life. Online, you're free to attack people all you want, with no consequence to yourself. Online, you can spend as much time as you want to thinking and preparing a response, researching before you make your next rebuttal. Online, you can't stutter. Online, people can always hear you, even if you normally talk too quiet. Online, you can talk to the hot girl all you want with no fear of rejection, 'cause you'll never meet her anyways. Online, you can express emotion that you normall have trouble expressing in real life. See where this is going? In real life, you can't do these things. Communicating online is so different that I can probably count on one hand how many people on this forum probably sound like they do in real life, consistently. And to be perfectly honest, you ain't one of 'em. Confucius would approve :P . Oh, and you can't be outgoing online. Especially with anonymity, it's pretty much physically impossible considering you're not talking with the person face to face.

TheLastTemplar, don't play the helpless sheep with this "refrain from personal attacks" posting. No one has attacked you thusfar, and no one really cares if you want to try and portray yourself as innocent and good in this argument. This isn't politics; it's a simple debate. Or, you know, you could look at the journey [here on Earth] as well as the end [in Heaven], instead of keeping your head in the clouds. I bet you'd learn a lot from studying Eastern religions [yes, broken record]. The majority of them focus on the journey, either instead of or with the end. Again, no need to disregard your life on Earth and spend all your time thinking about Heaven- there's still a lot of good you could do here for people O:) . Wow. That is, by far, one of my top most hated quotes of all time. It exemplifies, compliments, and supports the philosophy of a worthless craven. "Hey, if I don't believe in god, and there is one, it might now blow over well with all the Hell stuff theists are feeding me. But, if there isn't a god, then I believed something that isn't true. Be in the wrong, go to Hell, be in the wrong, go to Hell... oh, it's so simple! I'll just throw away all form of core belief, and just pick believing in God because of an easy trade-off! I'm a frikkin' genius!" If you're an atheist, stick to your guns. If you're a theist, stick to your guns. Center your belief system from what you truly believe true in your heart, not from your own spineless cowardice to take the easy route out. You got this idea... where? Are you telling me you don't find any morals in the human race outside of religion, any form of logic whatsoever? You truly believe all logic and morality comes directly, and only, from Christianity? Oh, and free counter-example for your post. Not everyone agrees on the laws set by their government. By your logic, no laws could ever be passed and enforced, ever. Am I wrong here? .. and havn't we gone down this road before? I'm getting deja vu with this whole "atheists can't live with logic" thing. There's another reason to read the book. No one ever has "more meaning"; everyone's is just different. Maybe you'd learn something about not being an elitist by reading it. Now, as a side-inquiry, what does this meaning tell you to do here on Earth? I'd assume it gives you a purpose, something to act on while you live among the measly mortals of this planet we call Earth. Ya... that won't really go anywhere. Good luck talking to yourself and all about it : .

You guys are so lucky your hair grows slow. Yaff, it would take me literally 4 months or less to get my hair to your length from a buzz cut. My hair's medium length, and I gel it and crap, so the fast grow rate completely screws up with me trying to control it. I get a haircut almost once a month because of that... Ya'll are too frikkin' lucky >_>.

Pfft, I don't even know my schedule right now N0M, let alone studied for any of my exams :lol: . Senioritis ftw. I'm in my university and now I couldn't care less : . [Though, I generally in the past have studied less than N0M even with Senioritis further lessening my drive; I've always studied merely the day before each exam. Seriously guys, school isn't as important as this.]

Your life's meaning is not things we can tell you Templar. Go experience life and figure these things out for yourself; you're not going to find such answers on a Runescape fansite forum. As for the rest of your post, why does everything have to be set and stone somewhere for a basic understanding of good and evil to exist within the human psyche, for a society to form moral standards? As venomai stated, do you seriously believe there is nothing holding you back from killing your neighbor than your God and the fear of Hell? You better not hope that's true, 'cause honestly, that's pretty sick. You can think for yourself, you can come to your own philosophical conclusions rather than blindly following someone elses. So don't go looking for other people to find the all answers of life for you, 'kay?

.... ourselves? Our will to survive and our general human nature, from which we can understand the differences between good and evil? What exactly are you looking for here?

Our life's meaning is detected by ourselves; it is, theoretically, not universal, but personal. We find it for ourselves. I'd recommend you read Man's Search for Meaning*, by Viktor Emil Frankl [a man both a psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor]. Good book, should explain things for ya. [*url goes to a page with a few quotes explaining some of the basic ideas of the book. If nothing else, read the last quote on the page; it's a good response to your specific post.]

Eh, my school's kind of an anomaly I guess- private Catholic [Jesuit] high school, where there are essentially no cliques and everyone's got something going for 'em. Some people are more inclined towards sports, some towards academics, some the arts, but everyone always seems to have a little of everything; in a class of 400, I don't know more than one person who doesn't play a sport at the school, and maybe half my class is in NHS. That, and everyone does community service, are good people, good friends, outgoing and intellectually aware, everything... it's kind of creepy sometimes how good the people are at my school... I mean, even the Ivy Leagures are just as nonchalant and put off by work as anyone else. Guess it's just a weird place. That's the kind of example I was looking for, that was based on reveling in stupidity. Gotta say though, that seems pretty odd :-k .

Don't lay on anything soft, get off Tip.it, and get to work.

You've honestly never met anyone like this? Wow, I'm surprised, they're all over my school and New Jersey. I know people that are, how should I word it... not extremely intelligient, but I'm having trouble understanding the concept of reveling in stupidity. Is there some kind of elitist complex that comes from their stupidity, or are you guys just pairing jerks and idiots together?

You know people that "revel in stupidity"? Sure, I know more than my share of people who don't have all that much of a desire to expand their mental capacity, but to say you've seen people that 'revel' in it? Gunna need some examples to explain that one :-s .
