  1. Just offering my input. Let's see what alpha has to say.
  2. I'm not the one to tell you what you should drink and what you shouldn't, what you should smoke and what you shouldn't, or otherwise tell you whether you can put something in your body or not. I'm a liberal. I know alcohol is only dangerous in large doses (unless, of course, one gets behind the wheel of a car), but again, it's far more harmful than marijuana (which, apparently, you can't OD on).
  3. There's a "slight" different between marijuana and methamphetamine, too. Cigarettes and alcohol are far more harmful than marijuana.
  4. Erm, we tried that with alcohol (which is far more harmful than marijuana) in the United States. Even passed a Constitutional Amendment banning it. And we see how well THAT worked out: Also, from what I've found, second hand marijuana smoke, while not smelling pretty to a lot of people, doesn't seem to harm you much at all. It doesn't even show up on a drug test.
  5. That one's kind of off-topic, but, why not. I'll quickly explain. Agnosticism comes from the root word "gnosis" meaning "knowledge". Atheism comes from the root word "theos" meaning "belief". I am an agnostic atheist, meaning that, on the subject of God, I don't know and I don't believe. Until I get some evidence, I can't know and can't believe. An agnostic theist would be someone that doesn't know but believes.
  6. The golden rule. Which itself was stated by Jesus Christ. When he said it, it was about the first time anyone had every been directly taught to think that way. Thus the continuation of being "Good" whilst not believing in God, also requires inheriting a statute of Christianity. Interesting. It was not started by Jesus. The Golden Rule pre-dates humans and was written as far back as possibly 2182 BCE, such as in "The Eloquent Peasant", which stated "Now this is the command: Do to the doer to cause that he do." Confucius back sometime between 551 BCE and 479 BCE wrote, "Here certainly is the golden maxim: Do not do to others that which we do not want them to do to us." The Golden Rule began a long time ago, but was popularized by the New Testament and attributed, later, to Jesus... I will not debate the merits of Christianity, any other religion, or atheism, though. Just pointing it out.
  7. The golden rule.
  8. There's a correlation between CO2 and the warming temperatures that's it. It means nothing. Actually, there's a lot more to it than that. The vast majority of the people believe that gravity is a force that 'pulls' you to the ground. Does that mean that it doesn't exist? There is loads of evidence for it. Anyone who thinks that nature should be saved at the expense of human well being hates production and capitalism. Well, good. Environmentalists don't think that nature should be saved at the expense of human well being. I'd really like to hear. I'd really like to believe that people don't want to destroy human progress, but I haven't seen a single environmentalist who is pro-capitalist since on their faces, their conflicting theories. You haven't been listening to them. You've been hearing what they say and reading their words, but you haven't been listening. Off topic, aren't those conflicting theories? Why would they be? Where did THAT come from? People are getting mad at Canada since we're not following the Kyoto accord. To follow the accord, the government would have to put even more restrictions on us. Do you believe that I, as a person, have the right to protect myself from harm?
  9. Walmart doesn't even technically exist. It has no form. It has no shape. It is completely intangible. The people have rights, but Walmart, itself, not even technically existing, does not. It is a legal concept, nothing more.
  10. This is Rosscott:
  11. I particularly like from Episode 35: "Well, obviously SOMETHING happened. I woke up in a trash compactor again."
  12. None of the above. Atheist.
  13. I've always advocated individual rights being upheld; this is no way comes with the right to own slaves. Do you have Asperger Syndrome? I ask, because people who do take things extremely literally. No, I do not have AS. A person has a gender. Walmart has no gender. It is NOT, for all intents and purposes, a person. It does not live. It does not breathe. It is not a member of the Homo sapiens species. It is not a person. At all. Walmart is a fictional construct invented by government to allow specific persons to organize for protection of various things. The corporation exists to create a wall of legal liability; stockholders, directors, officers aren't typically liable for a company's debts and obligations, for example. It is not a person. It's not taking things extremely literally. It's a legal concept created by government, not a person, not even for all intents and purposes.' But, thanks for asking if I have a psychological condition. Real classy.
  14. Not really. There is solid evidence and the vast majority of the scientific community on climatology shows that anthropogenic climate change is happening. Not really. No. Protesting a factory has nothing to do with hating capitalism and human production. Dude, I'm an environmentalist. And I can say, flat out, that you're just 100% wrong. Great. No need to cut back on production. I realize you don't understand this, but environmentalists are very pro-capitalist. If you'd like, I can explain why, but first, you need to assure me that you'll listen to an environmentalist such as myself. Where did THAT come from?
  15. Gold cartridges FTW!
  16. Original Legend of Zelda is superior over all the other ones, but LoZ 3 and OoT are good, too.
  17. First of all, as Axel said, we've already discussed this. Second of all, WHY?!
  18. Medicine delivery port on the outside of the suit. *nod*
  19. Like the pirate themed one, Ross could have a stereotypical spaghetti western themed one where he only uses the revolver. He speaks in this drawl, spits a lot, and keeps thinking back to his home, home on the range. Maybe once he gets outside in Surface Tension or sum'n.
  20. My idea is that the next CP will be Mike and Dave being back to their normal routine and never mentioning the Tunnel thing. It seems that they get into these kinds of predicaments a lot. And then there's that one time that Mike brought his pet Gargantua to work...."His name's Scraps!"
  21. Thank you very much! That actually makes much more sense now! Updated the subtitle file. Again, thanks!
  22. Ross: Should Black Mesa come out before you're done with Freeman's Mind, will you still skip over to BM? Or will you just stay in HL: Source for the remainder of Freeman's Mind?
  23. I wonder if there'll be a reference to the "garbage mashers on the detention level". "Hey, open the pressure maintenance hatch on unit number--where are we?--326827!"
