Quote: I'm weird, I know



There's nothing uch to say. I write depressing poetry in my spare time, I get picked on a lot, I listen to rock music, e.g. FOB, I hope to murder my family before comitting suicide in the nearby future. I have brown hair, green eyes and I'm fat. Really fat. I am 13 and I've never had a boyfriend. So if there's any hot vampires out there, help me.





I have nothing to add here. Seriously. How could I make this any worse than it is?

MidnightSong posted something in the forum that reminded me of something funny:



"I would also like to refer to anyone who cares about my statement, th book and or the movie, "The Secret." It goes into great detail about what i explained with words and will power being powerful tools for your desires."



Having never read or seen 'The Secret', and having no desire whatsoever to do so, I thought this hilarious video sums up my feelings on the matter:

So I was reading a Michio Kaku book, 'Physics of the Impossible.' Apparently scientists are advocating a "neuron-mapping project" that attempts to map out every single neuron in the human brain. It will greatly improve our understanding of the human mind, and possibly lead to the mapping of thoughts by pinpointing which neurons are responsible for certain thoughts. One of the potential goals is a sort of "thought dictionary" where each individual word is mapped to the exact neurons. This got me thinking.



As far as I know, our understanding of the brain is still a bit limited here. Is it even possible to make a universal map of thoughts? Different people perceive and understand words differently, so I'm curious whether two different brains will use the same neurons for the same word. The brain is a product of evolution, and thought may very well be intrinsically similar in different individuals, but it isn't definitely the case. The structure and function of the brain may very well be the only similarity between individuals, and if that is the case, then thoughts may only be mapped to a specific section, and pinpointing the exact neurons may be impossible, as different individuals still think differently.



Whether this difference in thought results from personal experience or slightly different hardwiring still remains to be seen (I believe). We all perceive the color blue. It represents a certain wavelength on the electromagnetic spectrum (well, a range of wavelengths, but whatever). But do we all perceive it the same way? When you see the color blue, you don't just see the color, you experience feelings and thoughts that you've associated with the color blue as well. That would cause many more than just a few neurons to fire, and unless you consciously know each and every thought, emotion, experience, etc. that you personally associate with the color blue, I'd imagine it would get awfully complicated and difficult to map out the brain.



That being said, I'm VERY interested to see what the Allen Institute for Brain Science comes up with on this front.

Why atheists are more moral than theists.

It's been bugging me that many theists believe atheists are immoral because they don't believe in a higher power. They say that atheists believe we can do whatever we want because there are no consequences. I, and most other atheists as well, find this insulting. Let me ask you this: if you didn't believe that your actions had everlasting repercussions, be it the 3-fold law, or eternity in hell, or what have you, would you go and kill your next-door neighbor for no reason?



Atheists don't believe in life after death, eternal punishment, or any of that nonsense, yet you don't see atheists committing murders, stealing, lying, cheating, even when there's a good chance that we won't get caught. Why? Because it's wrong. I don't need a God to tell me what's wrong. I know what's harmful to others, and I avoid committing such acts. So many people claiming that atheists have no morals because God doesn't tell them what to do, and it gives me the impression that the only reason they don't commit these heinous acts is the fear of punishment!



If you need to be threatened with punishment just so you won't commit evil acts, how moral are you, really? You don't do good things just because it benefits mankind? You do it because you expect a reward, either in life or after it? I don't need to expect a reward for being a good person, nor do I need to expect punishment for being a bad person. I'm quite capable of making my own choices, and because I can see why it's not okay to harm someone else without having punishment dangled in my face, I'd say I'm more moral than these so-called theists!



To end with a quote,

I blocked you after sending a long, angry message because I find it pointless to be patronizing and condescending to someone because they don't like biting. Plus you blocked her without saying so either.



Personally, I fucking hate biting. It's not because I hate the feature. I really don't mind it. It's the fact that people abuse it, and use it as an excuse not to be creative. Rather than start an interesting conversation, they send a bite, and expect you to start talking to them. I'm tempted to turn it back on, because at least then when people bite me, I can block them and get the boring, pointless, inane conversations out of the way. If you think someone is attractive, then by all means, BE CREATIVE when you speak to them. You wouldn't speak to someone in real life if they just walked up to you and said "you're hot," would you? What if 10 people did it per day? Would you be more willing to speak to someone who took the time to observe something interesting about you, said something intelligent, and had a real conversation? That is why I hate biting. I don't need 50 people telling me I'm hot all day. I know I am, and I'm going to show it off. If you want me to talk to you, you'd better have something interesting to say, or I want nothing to do with you. Read my profile, learn a bit about me. Otherwise, it's going to be awfully one-sided, won't it? Fuck, people. If I or anyone else doesn't like biting, it's none of your goddamned business.



Personally, if you don't like her pictures, yet you have none of your own (I didn't really care to look, but your dp certainly isn't much of a picture), you aren't really in a position to criticize, are you? Just because someone is more attractive, or more comfortable with their body, suddenly they're a playboy model? Fuck, if you looked that good, you'd be showing it off too, and you fucking know it.

Midnightsong decided to challenge two members in the Vr's main forum threads discussion. She posted:



"So provide evidence that god exists and then I will agree that every othe view must be backed with evidence."



This is a strawman argument at best. At worst, it's completely irrelevant to the topic at hand. Not only do I not believe God exists (because there is no evidence for his existence), but this is a pointless argument, as it attacks a statement that I never made. If an opinion is challenged, then it must be either defended or abandoned. Plain and simple.

Okay, seriously? Your last post in your own thread was perplexing to say the least.

I don't mean to be condescending or presumptuous, but if you just wanted to hear advice that you agreed with, why did you post the thread in the first place? I'm not attacking you, I honestly want to know. I would have expected that if you wanted the best advice, said advice would be based on evidence, and not just groundless claims. If I told you that Ouija Boards are made of candy and that they catch fire if you use them for more than 2 hours, you'd want me to provide some sort of evidence before you took me seriously, would you not?

What is irritating to me is that you and that other person are always butting shutting people down, just let them have a say, what they want to say, and have it be over, if you want proof so bad, then you yourself should seek it out if they do not provide, because in my opinion, no one should have to prove themselves or their beliefs, its very very rude.







So, the reason finally comes out, and it's just as pathetic as I'd thought. Next time you ask for advice, I'm going to spout the most fallacious bullshit you could possibly imagine. If you want me to stop, you know the question you have to ask.

i just looked up a few pages so u'd stop but that's not even enough so i'm leaving don't message me or i'll block you i have my "evedenice" and it's called real life



Okay, so it looks like we hurt her feelings. Sorry to break it to you, but this is the reason the forums are so dead. We have stupid fucks like this who just want to state their silly superstitions, and never be questioned about it. I already humiliated her by demanding evidence, then responded courteously and maturely to her angry and condescending rant. Then she put forth three websites that were just as unsubstantiated as her original rants, one of which even stated it was a joke. She responded with the above-mentioned post.



This is a blatant victory, but it's not even that gratifying. She was pathetic, and she responded to criticism with personal attacks and anger. Upon visiting her page, I discovered that she was only 18.



*facepalm*



This quote makes a lot more sense to me now:



"senece I've dealt with ouij boreds and demons and have 13 years of experience in the fild of wicca"



At first I thought her 13 years of Wicca was 13 years of serious study, but nope. She's just an angsty teenager who was exposed to Wicca when she was too young to understand. So what we have here, is yet another brainwashed youth, probably less resistant than Christians, but definitely rooted in her delusion. Her final response reminds me of the video I posted earlier this month. (The fellow in the ski mask. Go look.) She refuses to continue debating, because she can't provide evidence to back up her assertions, and if any of us message her, she'll block us.



Essentially, she doesn't want to question or be questioned. She just wants her statements to be taken as authority. At first, it was this quality that made me think she was older... well that and the fact that she's bat-shit ugly. Turns out, she's 18 and still demanding the respect of her elders. Sorry, but if you want respect, you have to demonstrate that you're worthy of it. Making baseless assertions and then refusing to back them up with evidence, responding with insult and patronization, does not earn you respect.



Oh, and one last thing:



"i have my "evedenice" and it's called real life"



I think you'll find that real life disagrees strongly with your "evedenice," whatever that is. Perhaps you might try NOT deluding yourself. I swear it works wonders. And you should probably learn to spell, too. English is obviously your first language, and you do a consistently wonderful job of butchering the hell out of it.

You're more pathetic than the average goth.

Personally, I'd do the same thing, you little shit.



i'm a rebellious badass girl and i don't care what people say about me.



Nothing is more hypocritical than telling everyone you're rebellious and that you don't care what anyone says about you. It indicates that you want to put forth a certain image (that thousands before you have put forth as well), and that you do, in fact, care what everyone says and thinks about you. Not to mention, if everyone in the world hated you, and you couldn't even turn to your mean old parents, you'd care. Stop lying to yourself.



i'm not a vampire but i do wear a hood on my head and sunglasses over my eyes. i never get a tan but i'm not pale either.



Somehow there's supposed to be a correlation between vampires and hoodies/shades? Did I miss the memo?



Oh, and stop avoiding the sun like the plague (and like a retard) and you might get a little color to your complexion. You've already established that you can't be as pale as you so desire. Oh, and you'll also get the essential vitamins that sunlight provides if you go out in it once in a while.



my nails are not always black, half the time blood red.



No one cares about the color of your nails. Every other woman on the planet wears red nail polish. Real original.



i mostly hate the colors pink, green, blue and yellow the most.



For the record, pink on black is hot. You, on the other hand, are far from. I guess it's a good thing that you avoid pink, and therefore have avoided ruining that color for me too.



i'm like no other on this planet.



Bullshit. You're like every other self-proclaimed "goth." This also leads us back to the "I don't care what anyone thinks" statement, and how pathetically hypocritical it is.



people call me a freak and some call me a weirdo. well to tell you all, i am a freak and i am weird.



Most people don't call you pathetic, but it's important to acknowledge that you are.



i wear tripp and iron fist yes, and i shop at hot topic. i don't care. i'm an individual.



You shop at Hot Topic. You are NOT an individual. Again, you're just like every other little shit who buys name-brand "goth" clothing and then claims to be original.



i'm the only chick at in rockport able to pull off wearing guys clothes and still look hott and like a badass. i have been since i was born.



You aren't hot. Nor are you badass. You're an ugly fuck and your Myspace pictures are full of ugly FAIL. Chances are, you've been ugly since you were born, and you'll continue to be ugly throughout the remainder of your existence.



i hate fakes. they are a waste of space on this planet and i think they should all go to hell.



Fakes are a waste of bandwidth at the very most. Don't exaggerate. It makes you look stupid. They deserve the same thing you do: a solid dose of common fucking sense, delivered by a golf club to the back of the head. Try it out.

Even funnier is the assumption that you can be my worst enemy. This I seriously doubt. If someone pisses you off, are you willing to go to whatever lengths it takes to be their worst enemy? What, will you kill their family? Kidnap and torture them? What if someone else has already done something horrible to them? You're claiming that you could do worse?

A few personal insights.
00:31 Jan 12 2009
Times Read: 1,079

Being high-functioning autistic, I've had the pleasure of observing the world differently from most people. It's funny how some things are slightly different for me.



For instance, I've always been a pretty good actor, getting into characters rather well. I've come to the conclusion that this results directly from the autism. Social interaction is incredibly difficult for me, and it's strange how this came about. Autistic people, or at least myself, have trouble empathizing with others. It's nearly impossible to see things the way other people do, and as a result, over the years I've come across as arrogant, weird, and only through trial-and-error have I learned how to act properly in a social setting. I can't see myself from another person's perspective, so I can only see the response to my actions after the fact. Through years of practice and development, I've settled into a character that works for me. Essentially, I'm an actor 24/7. My personality, the way I act, and the way I speak are all carefully planned. The way I "naturally" act is essentially the "role" that has become most familiar to me. Imagine for a minute what it must be like to go through life having to pretend to have a personality, not being able to speak to people without feeling uncomfortable, and having to learn how to socialize the hard way. Imagine being the "weird kid" your entire life because you can't (physically can't) be a normal person. Think what it must be like having had to work your entire life, studying, practicing, learning how to act like a normal person while also struggling through the normal stresses of daily life. Having to memorize what a person's reaction will be before you act. My thoughts, words, and actions are superficial, performed for a known result. It's remarkable how much one can learn about psychology this way. Should any of you meet me in real life (one person on here has, but he won't read this. lol), you'll see the persona that has been developed for 21 years. The end result of two decades of work. It's startling to everyone I meet when they find out that I'm autistic. It's been hidden wonderfully. Only one person I've ever spoken to knew that I was before I told him, and he was a psychologist for 8 years.



The only remnant of my disorder that is still evident (other than my tactile hypersensitivity) is my typing and attention to detail. That's why I always type as perfectly as possible. If something isn't perfect, it drives me crazy. It's a combination of this and my lack of empathy that makes my personal humor so different. If something is funny to me, I automatically assume others understand it the way I do. It's a subconscious thing, and will take years to overcome. When I type words deliberately like a retard (hellz yeah, n00bz, etc.), I find them funny. It still catches me off guard when someone points out that my typing like that is hypocritical. I forget that no one else sees it as humorous.



This, in short, is why I am so insensitive. I've gone through a struggle most of you will never understand, and came out triumphant. It bothers me to no end when someone lets a minor problem keep them back, and even uses it as an excuse for their stupidity or ignorance. Using your shortcomings as a crutch, rather than overcoming them, is pathetic. I realize even now, that my lack of empathy allows me to say and mean these things because I can't see the world from anyone else's perspective. I see other people's actions as if I'm performing them, and judge them accordingly. If any of you see me as arrogant and self-centered, this is why. I'm not, however, using this as an excuse. I already know it's the wrong way to look at things, but after 21 years of work, you can imagine I'm getting a little tired of it. I consciously refuse to develop anymore. I have better things to worry about. Things that interest me, and just happen to benefit others.



If someone learns something new from something I write, it's of no consequence to me. I write it for my own benefit. I'm learning more and more as I debate and discuss. Every new discussion gives me something new to study. This is also what irritates me about people that refuse to do research before posting their opinions on a subject. If I can search for something and do a bit of studying before writing an intelligent post, so can everyone else.



I guess I'm rambling now, so I'll wrap it up. I hope this whole thing makes at least some sense. I didn't exactly organize my thoughts before I started writing.

This was inspired by another Youtube video by Edward Current. It's for all those that feel they are of the true faith.



It says in the New Testament, in the Book of Mark, Chapter 16, verses 17-18:

17: And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;



18 :They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

In context, this says that anyone who believes that Jesus rose from the grave can perform miracles, but most importantly, can drink poison and survive. I call upon every believing Christian to celebrate their faith in Jesus by drinking a bottle of cyanide (or other lethal poison of your choice) and praise his name while you rejoice.



Seriously. Do it.

Now, I know he couldn't have read her profile, because the very first thing on there is a picture of me, and a caption about it. Either he's lazy, or a fucking idiot. You be the judge.



Also, for someone who claims to be hot, he certainly demonstrates a lack of personal photos. I can't imagine why...

What I believe, and a rant.

Because I'm tired of being asked what I believe, regarding spirituality and religion, here it is in a nutshell:



I believe in reality. I believe in what we can observe and test, and in what we can predict with what we know about the universe. As such, I believe that any and all paranormal phenomena can be explained using reason and science. For anything metaphysical (aka ghosts, psychics, etc.) to have an effect on the physical world, it has to be through a process that has a rational explanation beyond that of "magic". For example, for someone to demonstrate psychokinesis (moving a physical object with one's mind), there must be a physical process that is occurring. Something, from the level of subatomic particles and up, must be happening. The laws of physics cannot be bent to someone's will. The power of your mind alone cannot pick up and move a rock.



The same concept applies to ghosts that appear on film. People have said that perhaps ghosts draw energy to them or emit energy of their own. Okay, so where is their energy coming from, why isn't it affecting the surrounding environment, and what process is going on to explain it? Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, and it tends to flow from an area of high energy to an area of low energy, so in an environment that was previously at relative equilibrium, how is energy suddenly flowing to an entity that suddenly arrived at said location? Did the ghost have no energy beforehand? If so, how did it move?



As for poltergeists, how can an entity that cannot be seen or felt (unless apparently at its own desire) suddenly move physical objects around? What is happening physically to allow this? To put it in simpler terms, think of Casper the Friendly Ghost. He can catch a ball, but when you try to touch him, your hand goes right through him. It's happened in the cartoons, don't bother arguing. This is exactly what people say about poltergeists. It doesn't make any sense, and to simply say "it is unexplainable" is lazy and ignorant.



Mythical creatures, like werewolves (I've already covered vampires a number of times) are another issue. People claim, often with complete seriousness, that they can transform into another creature in the full moon, when agitated, or at will, depending on the individual making the claim. There is nothing in the human genome that facilitates such a transformation. You were born of two parents, who were in turn born of other parents, all of whom are sharing, essentially, the same genes that are in all of us. Nothing in the entire DNA and genome sequence (and yes, we know exactly what each gene controls,) allows for any sort of physical transformation. Were someone to bring up mutation as a possible explanation, there is no such thing as a full-scale mutation that changes the genetic structure of your entire body in a matter of seconds, and then changes it back in the same amount of time. Not only is it ridiculous to even conceive of, it once again violates the laws of physics in regards to chemical reactions that are the base of every molecular and biological process that occurs everywhere in the universe. It's not "magic", like some would claim, because there is no physical explanation for magic. It just supposedly happens. There is no evidence for or even reason to consider the idea that the mind can control the physical world.



Get over yourselves. Just because YOU don't understand something enough to disprove your own beliefs doesn't mean no one else has the right to do so. If you want people to stop criticizing your opinions, then keep them to yourself. If you want people to accept your opinions, then they have to be able to resist scrutiny. That means you have to back them up with cold, hard empirical evidence. Baseless and obviously false assertions will not be left alone. If your opinion doesn't agree with any accepted principle, then it is not valid unless you have facts to back it up.

Your comments are not necessary if they look like this.

Okay, so one incredibly stupid post in the zombie thread was one thing. Next day (today) I find this in the Special Mind Powers thread:



if we used our 110%

wed be smart we would have power to access the other side we would be building machines to communicate with the dead.



First of all, how do you fuck up the amount in a full percent?



Secondly, it's ironic that someone who flatly states that we'd be smart and would have all these fantastic inventions and powers..... has yet to write like someone with half a brain (just 55% of one, apparently).



I'm getting really annoyed, not just with lestatsbride, but with several other posters who refuse to actually add to the discussion, post random senseless bullshit, and then NEVER reply when their own statements are addressed. Fucking hell, people...

This video is awesome.

I think this video about sums up why I don't like Will Smith, or Scientology as a whole.







Notice the familiar concepts here. I WANT to believe. Nevermind our current understanding of the universe as confirmed by mathematics and observation, The Alchemist is more appealing to my emotions, so therefore it's infinitely more valid than science.



Fucking idiot...

A friend of mine just received a rather amusing comment. I figured I'd share it with the world:

Nice pics.



Not many people seem to realize this for some reason but did You know that Chriss Angel happens to be a mage?



I think that it's awesome that someone of magickal Practice is not afraid to use their Power out in the open no matter what they say.

This was just too precious for words. Some people...

Tackling the vampire issue again.

I keep seeing people saying that vampires are sexy, and they hope they are real. Aside from the obvious impossibility of anyone becoming immortal, there's yet another issue: if vampires were real, they would be the classical version, and not the romanticized concept.



The original vampires were thought to be corpses that rose from their grave at night, drank the blood of the living, caused havoc and chaos, and most importantly, were EASILY DESTROYED. Only when the romanticized vampire novels, not the least of which being Bram Stoker's Dracula, did people start to think of the fictional 'sexy' aspects of vampires (eternally young, super-powerful, almost impossible to kill). Suddenly these Anne Rice, and most recently, Twilight books come out and all of a sudden, the logic seems to disappear. Everyone thinks that because the FICTIONAL CONCEPT in a few recent books is more appealing to them, that vampires MUST be like that if they're real. Nevermind the supposed accounts of corpses that rose from their graves and made others ill among other supposed accounts of vampires throughout history (they're fake too, by the way). Oh, and none of them involve vampires that sparkle in the sunlight. What about garlic, crosses, stake through the heart, and all the other elements of vampire legend that were thrown out? This shit is pathetic.
