i suspect this will be the eventual outcome, via the fermi paradox

Tell that to the retards I tried to explain this to recently. They think that humans are "above" everything else. I continued to attempt to explain that intelligence/technology isn't shit and that survivability is really all that "matters" to nature (Although it's worth noting that even "mattering" is just a human concept).9/25/2008 10:32:32 PM |

I think the most dangerous aspect of all of this is the likelyhood that if enough of America says "told you so" often enough, that there will be an enormous rift in the reality structure of our logical bubble of existence, swallowed whole by an unstoppable wave of smugness. What happens when Smug reaches critical mass Billions will die simply from the realization that they are faggots, the rest will suffer slowly, as photos of themselves saying one thing, and doing another surface on myspace over the span of eons 9/26/2008 8:28:46 AM |

but of course the mighty cold virus will rise up and smite us all!
dolt, no one was arguing your major point, however many were pointing out your ridiculous basis you put under it.
in the end everyone dies, we have our time now but all it takes is a bigass rock and we are all done anyways. so eventually yes, we are all fucked.

Btw, just because you work as a fucking janitor at Duke doesn't mean you're an expert in anything. 9/26/2008 10:29:31 AM |
