I suppose they exist because somebody thought it was a good idea.

Now, as for what some people like to think what the Boy Scouts are, I suppose a wholesome, Christian, environment where boys learn to do survival stuff.

Probably ten minutes at the longest.

I don't really know. I'm not stereotyped, I don't think. Sort of weird, isn't it?

Wow, I really fucked that post up. Sorry about that.

You might want to reconsider that decision. Before vaccines 5-10% of people who contracted Polio died from it and 20-60% of those who contracted Smallpox died from it. If you scale that up to the current population of the world we're talking about billions of people.

So lets say for example no one gets any vaccines, like you suggest. Let's also assume that the death rates remain constant. That means that, at best your child has a 1 in 10 chance of surviving if they get Polio and a 1 in 5 chance of surviving Smallpox. By the way, there are a whole bunch of other diseases too, covered by vaccines that have various death rates associated with them.

On the other hand your child would has a 1 in 100 chance of getting some kind of Autism. We don't even know how much of that has to do with chemicals like Aluminum Adjuvants and how much of that is just environmental and thus not really preventable. Also, unlike most of those diseases that had vaccines developed for them you don't die of Autism.

So what you're saying is you rather have your child have a 1 in 5 chance of dying of Polio, Smallpox, or some other disease prevented by vaccines if you could prevent them from having a 1 in 100 chance of getting Autism. That doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

I wasn't saying anything about vaccines or chemicals at all. I was more saying that if I had to take a choice between my child having polio or my child having autism, I would choose polio. Because if the kid has autism, he might as well be dead. I guess that's pretty horrible of me, huh?

I feel the same way, and agree how twisted the media can be. They take a small issue and run with it, ignoring the other things. Just tune into fox news in my example then google the story they are covering.

You end up going down the rabbit hole so to speak, finding lies, and hidden truth. We do like to pretend we are the smartest and brightest in our universe. In mankinds eyes, the cosmos revolve around us. But humanity is still so pitfully barbaric, we are capable of the greatest dreams, but also home to some of the worst of nightmares.

"In an insane world, a sane man must appear insane"

I don't know, man. I'm not even sixteen. It also seems like he's making that call and telling that story because of his own life. Fuck, I don't know.

I think I sort of get the point he was trying to make with that Travis The Chimp story. The society that we've created is so strenuous and unnatural for us that we see a high rate of violence and mental illness, and that society doesn't acknowledge this or question it as much as it should. We're still largely biologically unchanged from ten thousand years ago, right? We're still animals, pretending to be civilized. If we were truly civilized, things wouldn't be as dysfunctional and volatile as they are.

Maybe he was right, maybe he wasn't. But the media never really looks at any of these shooters and others as people, just stories. They ask, "Why?" but they don't really want to find out the reason. They don't do this with suicide cases, terrorists, shooters, and murderers. These people aren't the cause of society's problems, they're the symptoms.

It seems like half of the people that made this site what it is content-wise are gone, their accounts lonely skeletons abandoned in the mists.

High hopes there, but sure, this is all bullshit anyway, so why not?

It just doesn't suit me. I would donate half or more.

I bet if you ever win the lottery you won't be saying the same thing. I've been broke before, and I mean, FUCKING BROKE. I would feel entirely justified in not donating a penny of it to anyone or anything. That goes for family, friends, charity, and anything else.

It would be disgusting if I kept it for myself.

How do you figure? It's your money, how is it "disgusting" to have plenty of money? I call that pretty fucking awesome.

All I would really want would be 25$ million or less.

I'll gladly take the other 75 off of your hands. I'm sure everyone on this forum would.

find a decent woman to settle down

Have fun getting fucked out of that imaginary money, bub. Everyone thinks you're the greatest guy in the world as soon as you have a nice big pile of money behind you. I've seen plenty of people with cash get absolutely fucked out of everything by their supposed friends, and partners. The only friends you should keep if you ever do come into any wealth are the ones you already have before you "made it big".

and have seven or eight kids with.

Are you fucking high? Seven or eight? Two, fine, even fucking four at a PUSH, but SEVEN OR EIGHT? Jesus Fucking Christ. If your whore wife doesn't screw you out of your cash, your kids will likely fucking murder you before you throw away their inheritance. I know I would.

Despite the fact that I'd have fun with 10 million, and sit on the rest from a personal standpoint, I'm not that much of an idiot with money. Out of the 10 mil I'd probably only get through four, maybe six at the most. I'd not need a large house, and a second hand McLaren MP4-12C is only about 150,000 or so in the UK as far as I know. So I'd be left with pretty much everything I started with anyway.

That's my autistic rant over with.

I know what having a dysfunctional family is like. Why do you think that I would donate the vast majority of my fortune, aside from my conscious? That amount of money would make me uncomfortable. And not every woman out there is terrible, I refuse to believe that. I like to think that I won't run away from what I want just because it might turn out badly. I've done that far too much in my life already and I have to make up for that. But maybe I'm just a dumb faggot and you're right about everything. Who knows?

I like them. They are sensible and fun. They don't judge and they are not afraid to speak their mind. For exam,e f they wanna talk about dicks they go right ahead. So yeah tats my thought. Plus who doesn't love Chronamut? Except muthafukers

That's a whole lot of generalizing about gay people you're doing there, padre.

I don't have any serious issues with them. When I meet a stereotypical gay person it's kind of jarring, though. And Chron is an okay guy, I suppose.

So when the only way to access the internet was on DOS? LOL

OP, I don't know about the internet in eneral, but the golden ae of internet usage for me was in 2006, when I first joined and got addicted on ROBLOX.

God, now I wanna play that game again.

Note that I said "filled with mothers." Not "When it only had like, five mothers on it."

At the moment, the internet is chock-full of mothers, grannies, and boomers. All very easily offended, boring people who never understood the zaniness of the internet. These are the people that support Facebook.

I think that it's just a book that claims he was Jack The Ripper. There has been no official judgement on it as far as I know.

You finish your popcorn/candy/whatever in the first 5 minutes and the whole while you cant hear shit because your munching is louder than the movie.

Also movie theater food is expensive as all hell. (When I go I usually sneak food in because I cant afford 17 dollar popcorn) (but then again I never usually eat for the aforementioned reasons)

Anyway what are your thoughts on this?

I pretty much agree. You just sit there trying to make the food last and you can't hear the film as well as you would if you weren't chewing. It's also annoying when people are chewing food all around you.

I don't really go to theaters unless I have to. They're usually dirty and expensive as hell. I'll go if it's a clean theater, though.

I see no connection between the two, however.
And vaccines don't cause Autism. Even if they did, I'd rather have a child with Autism than one with polio or smallpox or something.

I would rather have a child with polio or smallpox because at least they have some kind of chance at living a decent life. Autistic people generally don't. Same goes for a kid with Downs Syndrome or retardation. If I knew very early on through a screening test that my child had Downs Syndrome, though I don't want to even think about this, I might decide to abort the child if my wife agreed. I wouldn't want to raise a child that I might come to resent or regret, a child that will never truly be able to live a fulfilling life. It's depressing to consider.

German and Russian are languages for the manly man.

I prefer the new weapon icons, but I'm sure that sort of opinion would be dismissed because I'm a "total noob brah, haha" even though I've been aware of Newgrounds since around 2007 and started visiting at about 2008. Or maybe not.

You must eat Hamburger Helper a lot if you know your favorite kinds. More than I do, anyways. I've never eaten Hamburger Helper.

Let's not go down to squabbling and bickering with people over where they eat in this thread. Would hate to have to ban users for that.

I'm just asking him why it is that wolfing down huge amounts of calories means that you have friends. I don't see the correlation, myself.

There's so many horrible things that could happen that I can't choose just one. But it's obvious that the environment on Earth is taking a bad turn. We really needed to become responsible for the planet yesterday. Myself included. If we don't start cleaning up our act soon, things aren't going to be pretty.

I saw You're Next about a month ago, it was pretty good. Nothing revolutionary, but a fun take on the home-invasion genre with a slight twist with the protagonist, it's a fun movie, not to be taken very seriously. Would definitely recommend.

everyone is entitled to what they like, but when a song is pretty much censored on the radio why even play it at all?

Mainstream rap is silly because we're talking about dudes rapping about smoking weed while they're cutting deals with fat, white businessmen so they can make lots of money off of goofy white kids listening to their raps with a censor beep every 10 seconds. Yeah, that's really thug, bro.

It's fucking hysterical.

You seem to be the reactionary and contrarian type. Do I think that Evangelion is some sort of SOOPER DEEP MAST-HURR-PIECE? No. It's not amazing. And check my profile, I'm also a fan of Ranma 1/2, unless liking Ranko-chan makes me an even bigger pleb.

And I've been lurking Newgrounds since 2008. I only made an account recently because I think I might like to submit a few things eventually.
