State of the Game

[Just]

all depends on if it's unsolicited at me or not.

there's nothing to mistake when such things aren't solicited. since there is no difference there.

either way. i'd still have to care.. and i dont care about so much about people's lives and beliefs that ...you'd have to climb a fairly steep hill to make me want to say something about it. So many more important things to spend energy on than talk to someone you have no interest in.

Phew, it's great to read the last sentence there.

I could swear that you have an "intense" interest in this topic judging by amount of words you have thrown out of yourself already in your last few comments,
preventively,
even before this "steep hill" was crossed by someone

But I was apparently wrong, again.

 

[Raliel]

That's just wrong.

they do cherry and raspberry ones too at the moment

Me.

Unless I have heard/read this somewhere.

All Jaffa cakes are orange and only orange theses are imposters.

 

[Bottom Hat]

They should be called napple cakes instead.


I like them though

This is an invasion and a clear threat to British teatime.

forum banter is nothing - it's not something i'd be upset or emotional over. There's no requirement to be truthful and it's all just text on a forum. There's no emotional investment or risk involved. Even in an argument, it's not like any of it matters so it doesn't ruin my day or change my mood once i go on to something else.

getting all worked up over a forum, or anywhere online really would be exhausting. That's why it's super odd that people so willingly tie their real lives to social media platforms where now they end up having to care.

much better to not have any of that crap and just let this be a crazy place to pretend, read stuff, vent nonsense about a doomed game and look at things you're not allowed to talk about in this forum. That's what the internet is for.

i dont take anything on this forum seriously enough to actually get offended or worked up over. i use it to clear my head while coding.

Though ... i did get annoyed enough to report someone once...but they were super..super lame for a very long time and it was filling up pages with things that weren't funny in any language - just annoying.

edit: (i wouldn't construe the amount of words typed with how much something means to someone. i'm not on a phone all the time. Typing on a keyboard requires very little effort to type a whole lot in very short amount of time)

How would it know where to find me?

 

[Just]

All Jaffa cakes are orange and only orange theses are imposters.

I just realized, that we had our own Jaffa Cakes in eastern block.
It's usually hard to find such similarities.
My favorite childhood confection.

 

[thistle]

It sounds like one of us will need to put some effort in, me or truth.

This truth is hidden yet

Hardly.
If I define "truth" as some kind of "aggregation" of all facts, your location must be part of it anytime.

 

[PRORABBIT67]

So that's why I couldn't use the forum for six months I just thought the website was down.

 

[thistle]

In this case, you are correct. Blackcurrant are an abomination. Like eating soor ploom flavour jaffa cakes.

They look a lot better than Jaffa Cakes!

It was an old design, from XX century.
This is "now":

I guess I'm somewhat suspicious of the idea that any kind of revelation or achievement or even attainment of knowledge will routinely drop into one's lap without effort.

Looks good to me. Now, do they have pineapple flavour? Jaffa Cakes seem to have stopped making pineapple, or at least I can't get them near me.

I wouldn't assume it's "someone's".

 

[Just]

Lol, I just realized how funny would be a religion based on my COMPLETE set of beliefs.

"Hello followers.
I think that Universe may be not totally random.
But maybe it is.
Anyway, in case it's not, try to not be mean (bottompartholes) to each other,
because MAYBE there are some hidden mechanisms taking care of triggering scenarios that will punish you for this.

And even if there are not, it will make the world a better place and more people happy.

So, as I find rituals redundant, there will be no churches, just go in peace, have a nice life, and try to help others if you think they deserve it.
Bye."
