  1. [quote name='New Frontier' date='17 February 2010 - 04:05 PM' timestamp='1266422715' post='2187590'] Pacifica is always trying to get away with things. Their evil knows no bounds. [/quote] Flattery. I love it.
  2. The cake is quite patently fake, but in spite of that I'm sorry to hear that Pingu's Bar is laid waste.
  3. I'm stuck in the popcorn gallery when I don't really like popcorn much. Can I have chocolate instead?
  4. My name is President President and I am proud to be a member of the [s]New[/s] Neutral Pacific Order. When are we moving to Green?
  5. An admirably clear account of events. Thank you.
  6. I'm not sure that it counts as rough sex if you're on your own.
  7. I'm going to indulge in some Mary lurve. I'd love to be your watercooler boy, but I'm 112 years old and my doctor thinks I need a new hip.
  8. I've never known Kait to be anything other than sweetness and light, but then I've never done anything to annoy her or hers.
  9. Hello, GOONS! Congratulations on the simply smashing treaty.
  10. I have Water and Lead. Let me know if you'll consider me.
  11. This subjective view of reality isn't sufficient. If I believe I am a chicken when it is evident that I am a man, am I a chicken or a man? I would maintain in loud clucks that I am a chicken and strenuously deny the the protests of others when they point out that I am man with a rubber glove on my head sitting on some broken eggs which I obviously bought from Sainsbury's judging by the plastic bag on the ground next to me. I don't like your attitude to my brother chickens, young man. Apart from that, aromas seldom luminesce anywhere. Most blind people tend to define the world in terms of stupid people feeding snacks to their guide dogs at pedestrian crossings and asking them if they can smell what colour of jumper they're wearing. However, amusing as it is to go on like this I need to point out a very deep flaw in your argument. If I assert that the Germans won the Second World War and as offer as proof a painting of Hitler rolling across the Brooklyn Bridge in his limousine, would it be so in reality? The picture exists, so if we accept your premise, then the Germans did indeed win the Second World War and I really need to get working on a translation of all this nonsense. We can clearly see that I'm a chicken and you have a thing about blind people. I'm the last chicken to judge, but I think you need help. Our 'vision of reality' could indeed be a kind of construct created in the mind out of a mish mash of external influences and internal processes but you haven't shown that what results is True and Truth is a very important philosophical concept. I don't know whether this is about Theories of Mind or Epistemology. I know it's dodgy. There's even some political theory in there somewhere. To be serious for a moment - and believe me, a moment is all it will take - by the definition here we can only really know what we ourselves experience. The idea of 'the Believed' is nonsense if you accept 'the Known.' You may Believe that George Washington was the first president of the United States of America but by your own definition you cannot Know that to be true. You may likewise Believe that life exists on Mars, but you cannot Know it to be true. I may have stepped ahead here and gone into the concept of philosophical knowledge and truth like a townie in a field where cows have until very recently been kept. There may be cow-poo on my expensive philosophical loafers. Except I am a chicken and I don't have any loafers. I keep forgetting that. I don't consider these definitions of reality to be sufficient to their purpose, so I can't really in good conscience continue with the discourse until the problem of Truth is addressed. Edited for spelling.
  12. After the war there'll be kittens and loveliness and grammar lessons.
  13. When you go past 3m NS, do you launch the Death Star? Congratulations to the New Sith Order on an impressive performance to date.
  14. Ask not what your alliance can do for you. Ask what you can do for your alliance.
  15. You'll have to wait a while. We don't have any scandal. Sad, but true.
  16. Thank you, Schattenmann, for your brilliant publication.
  17. You shouldn't be too taken with Valentine's Day flings, people. They seldom last long or end well.
  18. Good night and good luck, Heft. Congratulations to Finster.
