Whaaaaaa? Prudish? You can't be serious... When I was young I'd jack off to Dracula. There are parts that are incredibly erotic.

You cannot write anything else after that because it was established that I cannot own what only you have created subjectively.
You're unbelievably pseudish lmao, I said "you should own it" meaning you should just embrace it as part of your persona.

Seriously, was it not clear that I wasn't using that word like that? That you would reply as you did is just you though. Wouldn't be ng with out it anymore.

Please no stop giving people such a bad impression of us. You are your own kind of ridiculous, Insanctuary. Own it.
I actually think you'd be better off going into high paid escorting. Less degrading, less public, more money.

Yeah, this pretty much sums up my views on why smoking's a bad idea. Is it overhyped still? Of course. If it wasn't, these people would be doing their job wrong.

If you theoretically chose homosexuality as your preferred sexual preference would you prefer buttsex or hand to hand combat
Buttsex, duh.

I can't lie man, that sounds pretty painful. Much respect for handling it so well, it can't be easy.
If it's any use at all, I'm starting to think that there's zero point being anything but myself - doing shit for social props feels great, but it creates a dependency and ultimately makes you much more vulnerable to real depressive feelings when you do get down. I'm also finding that unless I'm careful with drugs, I end up losing masses of time and money quick. Weed's a real bitch in that it's rarely a bad time to smoke up, acid's a pretty ideal drug for me because it is literally impossible to become addicted to.
How're you holding up man, you have close friends you can lean on an shit?

Then war is literally no different to conflict - So why call it war? You try so hard to sound elegiac, but instead of making your language more precise and meaningful you just confuse distinct concepts.
And just saying "nou" never has been and never will be a dignified response.
That's where the axiom comes in, mate. If you can't argue my points, it becomes more true than false. I am making non-personal points, which are highly correlative to reality's extrinsic nature. If you haven't noticed, the questions I am asking are taking more into consideration than "I think therefore let's make opinion babies".
Actually try saying that in clear bullet point form, in simple human language. I dare you. I double dare you.

You make the concept intangible by making it impossible to observe and define. Even if war is everywhere (which it isn't - conflict is everywhere) then there will be places in which war is more/ less severe or more/less frequent. What you're doing is textbook obscurantism - when the evidence points against a proposition you've made, you move the goalposts to make it so that no-one's right or wrong (to save yourself from the possibility of being wrong).

Wrong. You're just assuming that's the case, so take off the Ayer pants, my friend.

I'm 19, and I've had a 5-month long existential crisis. I'm not sure if I should try and be more normal (get laid more, DJ more places, make more friends etc etc) or if I'm happy just being quiet and a little bit druggy (but not really sexed up). I have no idea what I'm going to think of myself in five years, or how to set up being someone I'll be happy to be. I grew up being taught that family was everything, but now I've finally stood up to my step-dad I've lost most of that and don't know entirely what to replace it with. For the last three years I've just been about understanding myself better, but it's made me more inward and sensitive. Idk, rant rant rant, my white teenage middle class life is so horrible wah.

If you want to discuss with me, please provide evidence for your claims. It doesn't help that you didn't realize anti-war was war -- so what makes you think you'll see it in patriotism, mhmmm?
Ayer didn't say jack about patriotism - I'm saying you need to read up on the importance of your hypotheses being falsifiable/ verifiable. You made a falsifiable statement "Where there is patriotism, there is war" which was then falsified - "There is patriotism but not war in Switzerland". You responded by making war an intangible concept, rendering your statement unfalsifiable.
A statement that cannot be proven nor disproven is meaningless. That's what Ayer's about.

It's like you don't even know what they mean! Bro, read up on some Ayer, despite his contemporary critics he was pretty much right on everything.

Not often.
But I remember this one time my friend was trying to get with this girl. We were in a bus-queue with about three other friends, with the bus likely to take another twenty minutes and this other dude who was pretending to be gay (like really, really gay) started talking to her, making her laugh and shit. Anyway, my friend was losing her, and having a girlfriend at the time I figured I was on wing-man duty, so I joined in. Addressing solely the "gay" guy.
I started off hitting on him majorly (although not remotely attracted to him, I am bi so I kinda know how this shit works) and when he rebuffed me I made a scene, raising my voice, asking what it was he didn't like about me. When he replied telling me he wasn't gay, I full on started to fuck with him, asking emotionally why he would mess with my feelings like that. To get with the blonde girl, he replied, desperately trying to disengage from the conversation. Permission denied - I had to stall him some more (and I was starting to enjoy myself) so I got indignant about him "using my people's struggle as black-face-esque comedy to oppress women".
The best thing about middle-class white people is that they get shocked by the idea they have offended others and freeze up.
For a further, wholly unnecessary ten minutes I continued to fuck with him and the gathering crowd of his friends, ranting about rape culture and cis-gendered hetero-white cultural misappropriation. I really got into my stride as well, asking him if he knew gay culture was sympathetic to homophobia, and whether he understood the irony of using it to mock gay people. When his friends got a word in edgeways to ask who he was, he tried to save himself by saying I was some gay dude who had a crush on him, to which I responded by getting offended and asking if he thought all gay people had a crush on him.
When the bus finally came, and my friend was full on eating the blonde girl's face, he looked relieved at the chance to get away from me and my friends and went straight upstairs a safe distance away from my friend and his carnal ambitions.
100% true story, and possibly my finest hour.

You can protest against it, you can contact the opposition leaders against it, you can vote against it come election day, but violent revolts are not beneficial to the democratic process.
How about the fact he was mind-blowingly corrupt or that he had no problem murdering innocent civilians?
I could give two shits whether a government leans East or West, and I can honestly say if he was a good man who did well by his people and that lead him to be pro-Russian, I'd love to root for an underdog like that. But he wasn't. He embodied the worst Soviet traditions, and when it came to crunch time would rather have his people shot than face them in a court of law.

Then absolutely no country ever has had nothing to do with war. And there is no difference between patriotic and non-patriotic countries.
Engage your critical faculties.
I'd just like to say that Insanctuary threads are one of the most funny and unique things about the BBS man, I really appreciate you typing these paragraphs.

Not patriotism - If it was patriotism, why are the insanely patriotic Swiss so anti-war? Pride is necessary for war, but not sufficient.
