Quote from: Waddle Bro on January 18, 2013, 02:00:32 PMDon't be pessimistic. You'll make Mikuru cry. :(
Being pessimistic is different from being honest, though in some cases honesty can hurt (like Mikuru :P).

Quote from: Bubbles7689 on January 18, 2013, 01:58:22 PMA true English gentleman would always respect logic as well as other people's opinions.
The thing is, not all opinions are logical. :P

I could go out and rant forth about how there ARE aliens using only my opinions as logic, and... well, I'm sure you get the point...
But I could also do the same thing, in a different way: go about it with a more scientific approach, and using my experiences to back up my points.

Quote from: Waddle Bro on January 18, 2013, 01:32:45 PMBDS you've been involved in like a million argument wars now! Maybe you should calm down. :P
I argue because I stand up for logic (though some might say otherwise). :P If I "calm down," (or even go into hyper-mode) nothing will get done, as demonstrated countless times in our current era. :P
One motto I have, although this is off topic, is, "If everybody keeps saying how bad life is, life will become even worse," meaning that, if you do nothing to improve your (or anybody else's, for that matter) life, it will be as bad as you say it is; if you merely accept mediocrity, then you will have mediocrity.
And don't try and think of some farfetch'd and FRIVOLOUS excuse. :P

Quote from: Ruto on January 18, 2013, 01:23:08 PMI don't see how you'd risk your family by staying in a place like that, or want to move when your house has been broken into multiple times. How can you think of money being an issue when you move, if by staying, you'd get robbed or someone gets hurt in a burglary? It's not being paranoid at all to think about safety and it's not what you'd call "a slightest bit of trouble."

Having your house broken into doesn't justify carrying a gun in public. It is paranoia to think you'd always need one...and just delusional to think you'd be able to play a hero and stop a crime with it someday.
Hmmm... let's take an example from my own life...

The neighborhood we used to live (when I was really young) in was rather violent (e.g. we found bullets lodged in our walls, as my father has said several times), although the neighbors were friendly. Although we were somewhat-eager to leave, we couldn't at the time.
However, now, the neighborhood we live in is peaceful, except for a few break-ins that have been happening in the past year (when people aren't at home, though; even in the gated communities around here).

To sum it all up, the reason we are still here is because there's no reason to move; it isn't paranoia to carry a gun: it's paranoia to constantly be hopping around just because of some little threat, which could be easily handled some other way. Unless there was a mass invasion of robbers (a dozen people breaking in through the roof, windows, and doors :P), there is more than one way to take care of them (whether it be guns or fists >:D).

If you think of stopping crime as a delusion, then there is no way you can: you must take action whenever it is needed, and within your boundaries. Doubt and inaction are, obviously, worse solutions, in most cases, unless justified.

Quote from: Shadoninja on January 18, 2013, 01:33:49 PMSay that again when the aliens attack.

Besides if guns didn't exist, we'd use crossbows. if not crossbows, the bow and arrow. if not the bow and arrow, swords and lances and axes, etc.
Exactly; you might as well amputate people's hands and feet and replace them with mechanical ones that resist when you try to use them for violence. :P

Quote from: BlackDragonSlayer on January 18, 2013, 01:05:55 PM...if that were true, very few people would misspell anything.
Some people just do not care, or only care about how FAST they type, and do not bother to look over their posts.

Bubbles is feeling snotty today
Education does not dictate how you write on the computer; if that were true, very few people would misspell anything.

Quote from: Cobraroll on January 18, 2013, 01:59:19 AMAgain, sorry if I offend anybody, but I also frequent forums where people are of ages 50+, and wariopiano's posts are nothing like theirs. In my experience, people of that age put way more thought into posting with correct language (having learned how you come across to other people if you make it look like you can't put together a proper sentence), are likely to share their wisdom of life, post very little of their personal life situation, but more about their experiences. To put it bluntly, I've suspected for months that wariopiano and mariolegofan are the same person, and I've yet to see anything that should make me think otherwise.
While it is possible, I must point out that not everybody needs to abide by the same stereotypes as other people in their age groups.

Quote from: Clanker37 on January 18, 2013, 01:54:49 AMUmm... I'd be packed and out of there straight after the first break in.
That's the thing:
1: Not everybody can afford to move.
2: Not everybody WANTS to move.
3: Now THAT is paranoid. :P You can't just jump up and leave at the slightest sign of trouble... if you did that, you'd have a new home every week.

Quote from: Kman96 on January 18, 2013, 06:56:01 AMQuestion-

Is your body ALWAYS ready? or is it just ready at this current moment? The sentence you have up there means the former, as the latter would be "Mi cuerpo está listo."

I couldn't resist.

All right, Spanish test in the morning from 9:30 to 11:30!
And remember:

Mi cuerpo es listo.

*raises hand*
If Sega made a game devoted to just the slots, I'm sure a lot of people would buy it.

Quote from: SocialFox on January 17, 2013, 09:56:42 PMPeople around school are starting to say around me (and behind me) that I have no heart, which is really starting to depress me.

Could someone please help me in getting out of this problem?
I have no heart either. Muhuhuhu.

...but really, unless you can somehow show them that their preconceived notions are false, I'm not sure what else you could do. :(

Quote from: SuperFireKirby on January 17, 2013, 10:01:49 PMWell, find out why they would say something like that? Do you have any idea? Maybe you don't express your emotions or something to this particular group of people?

I'd find out why and then do something super outrageous to make everyone think otherwise.
I tend not to show too many emotions unless I know somebody (which may make me seem cold on the outside, but I don't care, as long as people don't run away from me :P)... but I really hate it when people grasp at their preconceived notions.
