And generally fail; standard practice is "Ignore, ignore, then ignore."
I do believe that's enough religion talk for a while... let's move on to something more fun for everyone...
Anyone doing anything interesting this weekend?

Jehovah witnesses stopped coming by the house when they figured out I knew more then they did. At age 15 they drove up just as I was about to cross the road to help my dad out, ask me a question about the end times, and I gave them an awser that made them shut up, give me a plamplet, and they drove away. Haven't seen one since then.
And Christianity is suppose to be an open religion. Granted all of them are if you show interest, others tend to be more worried about "their" people then expanding.
Personally I'm Methodist which are suppose to be all about "Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors" but natually the follies of humanity perverts that.
Anyways, my weekend was a bust. Most of Friday, Saturday, and today was spent working on and with cotten picking related jobs and equipment and at night I played L4D2 with friends. Only other thing that happened was that I found out that the weird Final Fantasy VIII DVD collection is bascily a play through of the game. All FMV, plot importent conversations and battles are still in. Random battles, most of the battle turns, and stuff like that are cut.

On a rather humorous note, this is actually what someone I know said about Mormons:
"They don't like it when you answer the door in you underwear"
I tried being a Taoist for a while, but they didn't quite have it 'right'...but they were close
WAIT a second...can I call myself a Naturalist to justify my dislike of dieting, deodorants that are actually antiperspirants, and John Q. Public's obsession with smelling good? ...among other artificially made human fails?

You can be a Hermit, Mab.
Live in a cave and give passing travelers your expansive mathematical knowledge.

=o You know the wise old hermits in the middle of the mountians meet the most interesting people... And they've practically got a religion of their own!
Just think... to shape the quests of young heroes everywhere~
...would that be their general mission statement?

hmm...
that...
is actually a GREAT idea! All I'd need to know how to do is get sustainable food from the wild and I'd be golden!
Mission statement: "We pee in bushes and walk around in loincloths, and yet you STILL listen to us!"
but wait, hermits don't get to go into space or use expensive particle accelerators...oh well, hermit sounds more fun right now anyway

"Oh great and wise Maborofel, I have come from afar to seek your wisdom..."
"Ah, my son, you seek the wisdom of the square root of raspberry."
"What? No, actually I just-"
"Well, my son, the answer... *meaningful look* is inside of you. So long as you don't forget to carry the two, your destiny shall remain within your grasp."
"...Uh... I dunno how that's gonna help me slay the dragon and rescue the princess, but okay..."

"Wait my son, which princess? She's ALWAYS in another castle, you know"
"...As for the dragon, I hear they like pork, even if it gives them indigestion."

As to the food... everyone knows hermits automatically get a +5 on gathering skills, if not hunting... so the meat part's the only thing you need to worry over. =D

Y'know, I actually am finding that I have a mix of Taoist, Buddhist, Confucianist and Christian views...
Hey Mab, can I join you in your hermit-ness? =D

No, sorry
but you CAN live in the next cave over, its just that nobody ever comes to the Hermit for advice to hear 'which one do you mean?'
hmm.... seems like I'm mainly atheist, with elements of Zen Buddhism, a bit of Taoism, and possibly hints of animism-equivalents
@Hana only a +5? I thought we'd get a +7, at LEAST! It's practically our specialty, how do you think we end up with coffee when we live in some ice cave in the arctic?

D: Unfortunately coffee is a no-no unless you grow your own beans... in a tropical climate...?
Anyways, the bonus depends on if you're in a high-rate or low-rate server. D:

...heh... interesting where this thread went while I was gone...
Had a rather unpleasant experience coming back to NY from my mom's in MA... the rear driver's side tire of my car blew out on the highway. Not fun cruising along then suddenly hearing a loud rumbling coming from under ya, and little tiny pieces of black rubber flying out behind the car...
Luckily, I have AAA, and they came and swapped out the tire for the spare I had in the trunk. Only took 'em a half hour to reach me too. (Just the right amount of time to call the important people to give the "I'm ok, but I'm also kinda screwed right now" news)
Needless to say, I gotta make a trip to the mechanic this week to get a new not-spare tire. confused

You can have hermit meetups aka Gatherings of Homeless People.
Do tyres really get destroyed that fast? I had the idea that there's a process... like first a flat then it rips off...
