Off Topic Thread This thread is officially meant to go off-topic. KristalRose started it, I'm just following through. This thread can wander all over the place because that's what it's designed to do. So I'll start the ball rolling ... do you think aliens had a hand in designing the sims 2? Discuss. And here is something I really don't get. An Afghan Warlord who tortured people was sentenced to 20 years in prison in Britain recently. Meanwhile, in the US you can get 20 years for growing marijuana. Not selling it, just growing it for your own use. The world makes no sense to me some days.
You know when Sims are like 'Looba!' and waving up at the screen at you, do you think it's 'cos they are very religious and think you are the god of all sims? And if simmish was translated into English, what would they be saying? 'For f**k sake, can't you see I don't want to work out? I'm too freaking lazy!'
Why do I still wet the bed??? (not literally) Why are dogs so cute? Why are we going off topic? Why do I smoke? (again, not literally) Why are their wars? Why are there so many forms of righteousness? Why can't me and my army of gnomes take over the world? Why? Why? Why? Kids these days with all their questions...
How do we know that we're real and this isn't just the fleeting daydream of a super-beetle? And is the planet of the apes real? I suppose it is - we're supposed to be descended from apes, aren't we?
Some of us never evolved past apes, which is actually an insult to apes because they are generally peaceful beings. Well, gorillas not chimps. Human beings can be put in two categories: gorillas and chimps. There are wars because most people in charge are chimps. There are wars because our "leaders" are nothing more than overgrown five-year-olds who can't play nice in the sandbox with the other kids so they take the biggest stick they have and whack them over the head with it. There are violent people because if you have two people in a cave with a rock and only one piece of meat the violent one is going to win, and pass his violent genes to his cavebaby, and so on and so on and so on. Peace is a relatively new concept in the history of the world. And somewhere in India someone steps on a butterfly and dinosaurs rise again. Does anyone know a good recipe for blueberry crabcakes?
ROTFLMAO!! How did my name get dragged down into this muck? Why can't I win the lottery? Why must I sit here until 3:00 if my work was done at 1:30. Why do employers hire incompetent people and then not fire them even though they are incompetent and not only make the company look bad but anyone that has anything to do with them? (don't ask. . .long day in the RW. My work would not be done if someone else would have done their job. ) Why can't the official retirement age be 35?
Or even travel back in time. Ever wish you could go back to, oh, 16, with the knowledge you have now, and live your life over? Boy, that's one of my favorite fantasies.
Why must must the truth be hidden? Why is there always an oppisite? Why can't you just be happy? How come cats hate me? Dogs are a lot better. Isn't it great that down here in New Zealand we get to txt for free in the weekends if you're on Vodafone?
Why did they come up with black and white instead of color first? You'd think they'd have to do someting special to make it black and white...
Does my dog take the car for a spin when I'm out? Does the cat raid the fridge? Do they conspire with the hamster for world domination?
SBW: No, only mice do that. Hamsters just run in circles and look cute. If you could be somewhere else, anywhere else, right now, where would you be? I would be on a beach somewhere, watching my kids frolic, holding my baby in my arms and dipping his feet into the waves. (sigh) I've got Island Fever.
LOL I was wondering why SBW was going out and leaving her car at home ... that's just taking environmental concerns too far
Well in actual fact, mice DON'T aspire for world domination. They already run Earth. Humans are actually only the THIRD most intelligent species, following dolphins. Proof here
Spoken like a true Hitchhiker. Seen the movie? Actually, Mirelly, I walk to work whenever I can. It's only 2.5 miles and I need the exercise since my job entails sitting on my tail all day. Plus, yes, I am concerned about the environment. I drove today, though. We're in the middle of a heat wave. I nearly expired walking home yesterday. I'm not in that bad of shape, it was just HOT. I was thinking of renaming my pets according to their functions. My dog's name would therefore be Prewash, my cat, Alarm Clock, and the hamster, Lady Spinny. The goldfish, collectively, would be known as Mosquito Trap (they live in the pond in the summer).
Wow, another person who likes to read more than watch a movie ... don't get me wrong, I love movies, but there's nothing like a good book, is there? Although I once played a text game based on Hitchhiker's guide (remember those? no graphics at all but very clever ...) that was quite entertaining.
