Welcome to Gaia! ::

As I said, I got really worked up and said stupid s**t. And I happen to believe that death is by far one of the most benign things one can wish on another. It's not nearly as extreme a thing to say in my eyes as it is in yours. Si crees que soy una mala individua y no quieres verme, ponme en tu listo de bloqueando y continua con tu vida -- no hay necesidad tratar de causarme un sufre de colapso. Y si es algo ayuda, a mi yo odio más que alguien puede; todo que dijiste, yo he decido ántes.

There's no problem with it's continuance. Just it's abuse. If it was made illegal, the only positive side of abusing it would turn into a negative side.

I know that nobody will believe a word I'm about to say, so feel free to ignore this -- it's just for me to sort out my own thoughts.

I've lost control of the posts I make. When I'm worked up in any way, I say things that tend to be much more antagonistic and controversial than I would ever dare to do if I were in my right mind. Oftentimes, this extends to saying things I don't even think, such as expressing beliefs I don't actually believe (at least not as strongly as stated). This all happens long before I get so upset I lose control altogether, so I'm at a loss as to what is causing this. All I know is, it makes situations far worse, and often creates the situations in the first place -- and coupled with the fact that I avoid conflict as much as possible and go into panic mode at the slightest sign of annoyance with anything I've said...well, it's a problem. I've never been good at thinking before I speak, but online I've usually been able to control it at least somewhat more than offline.

My theory on what the problem may be is that I type faster when I'm heated (not like that, pervs), and since my brain activity has been gradually slowing down over the past few years, I can logically hypothesize that my increasingly-speedy typing has finally outpaced my thinking...so I end up saying things before I even know I'm saying them. This would also justify the fact that I never remember having made the posts, or if I do, the memory can only be accessed within a very thick fog.

Jon wants to build up more muscle. He has enough as is. ^^;

I'm gonna be dating the Incredible Hulk.

I've been having a lot of trouble sleeping all week, and I have no idea why =(

I just want to rant about a computer problem. I know this isn't a secret, but I didn't want to make a whole new thread for it.

I somehow ended up with some kind of stupid malware/virus/WHATEVER thing on my laptop, and I can't get it to go the ******** awayyyy! It's this thing that keeps opening up internet explorer to a page full of porn and then saying "Oh, hey! You should update your virus protection software!" even though it's obviously fake and I know that it's what's causing the popups to come up in the first place. This page explains how to get rid of it, but it didn't work. I uninstalled Internet Explorer so that I'd at least stop having to see the porn, but it still won't let me open any of my programs (other than Firefox for some reason), unless I'm in safe mode. I don't have very much stuff on that computer that I'd want to keep, so I backed it all up (A whole 10 pictures or something pathetic like that XD) and I guess we're gonna have to format the hard drive on it or something. The one thing I was really upset about losing, though, was my browsing history from FF because it's my way of finding old threads in this guild and stuff. I ended up finding a way to back that up, but it took ********!!! D<
I'm stuck on the Vista computer that I hate until my mom plays around with the laptop (because I wouldn't be able to use MSN Messenger on there, and I need to talk to my princey! D=)
I'm mostly just mad because I didn't get a chance to do any homework or anything fun today because of this damn thing. Now I'm all cranky, and I need my princey to come home and take my mind off itttttttttt!!!

The idea behind making people who drink alcohol sick is to remove something that can be harmful that's not 100% necessary to life, right? Let's start with cars. It's not necessary for people to drive anywhere, we can just walk to wherever we want to go. Lots of people die in car accidents every year, so they're too dangerous for us to have. There's, of course, any kind of gun or weapon. Forget about having a knife at the dinner table, those are really dangerous. You could cut your hand while carving up your dinner or fall on it while walking. Same with scissors. Also, lots of people have accidents and fall down in bath tubs every year, so let's make people sick who use those too. It's definitely not necessary to life to take baths or showers. Don't forget to put something in the air that makes people who walk outside without proper protection sick - the sun emits ultraviolet radiation that could be very dangerous to someone exposed to it. People can burn and some get skin cancer. Just provide each home with a hermetic seal around all doors/windows and provide air cleaning units; people will be fine. Make people sick who have sex, too, because sex is not always willing. People can be emotionally and physically injured through rape and diseases can be transmitted. The species could survive just fine through in-vitro fertilization.

Yes, driving, walking outside, taking a bath, having sex, etc. can be done safely, but so can drinking alcohol. That's the point I'm trying to make. If we take away anything that could potentially be dangerous to humankind, there'd be nothing left. There's not a single thing on this planet that can't be dangerous to someone (people can even die from drinking too much water, and that is the substance most necessary to life), and which can't be abused in some form. The smarter thing to do would be to only introduce that chemical into the bodies of people who have already proven that they can't use alcohol safely, i.e. people who are abusive under the influence of alcohol or people who have driven drunk. Even murders aren't locked up before committing murder; they actually have to commit the crime before being punished for it. To my thinking, punishing the innocent along with the guilty is never acceptable.

...I have a monster headache right now, and I was looking to take the rage I have over my headache out on something, and this provided a convenient topic. I'm not trying to be particularly contentious.

About the cars:
Believe it or not, I currently wish to create a system that will make them more or less completely obsolete. Not because they're dangerous, but because..... Well, they might as well be obsolete. Bunch of ******** wastes of space if you ask me. Civilian planes as well.
The general idea o' making this thing that causes problems with drinking is..... Well, driving doesn't usually destroy people even when they overdo it. You can talk a person with a knife down, usually(and if you can't, it's not the knife that's the problem).
An' as for the sex bit, on how it's not always willing..... Well, I figure the public brutal murder of everyone so filled with gall as to commit such a heinous act ought to dissuade any future offenders. And as for the diseases.... I believe the term is quarantine, though the humanity in that is also questionable.

Driving can't destroy societies. Walking outside, bathing, screwing, most things can't destroy societies. Alcohol, however, has demonstrated an ability to rip communities apart, destroy families, and cause a great deal of other things to occur.
That, and it just so happens that it's pretty much already a poison. Even just taking away the ability to neutralize it would screw people over. Adding a poison to add to the pain would just be icing on the cake, really.
