You know what's bullshit?

Nature. You can't sit through an advert break these days without seeing about five different products advertised as containing 'natural ingredients', and we're supposed to unquestioningly accept that this makes them superior and worth paying extra money for in the middle of a global financial crisis.

Ths thing is, someone at some point has arbitrarily decided that nature equals good, and the majority of the world has just accepted it without asking any questions. Hasn't anyone seen a nature documentary? Nature is a horrible thing to live your life by. It's full of disease, and pain, and animals getting ripped to shreds by other animals at every opportunity. Come to think of it, almost everything that people have built against nature is good. We've made ways to treat disease, care for the injured, and our general health and happiness is better today than at any previous point in time.

Come to think of it, holding up nature as some sort of ideal is essentially giving a big "FUCK YOU!" to all the hard, mostly uncredited work that's been put in over the course of human history to improve the lives of everyone. From now on, anyone involved in advertising stuff as 'natural' should be forced to go into a forest somewhere next time they get sixk or injured, and wait for Mr Squirrel and Mr Deer to tend to their wounds. Bastards.

I know what you mean. Blue Smarties are back with no artificial colourings, but really, who gives a shit. The worst stuff is when you see people go on about "natural medication".

I agree with that ;)

But i dont why nature lovers are against killing animals when its nature for us to kill them :/ well most of them..

Well, having everything nowadays being processed in laboratories and stuff makes people afraid or something, they think that something with natural ingredients lowers the probabilities of getting cancer from them or something.

But if you think about it, everything comes from nature, man cannot make stuff appear out of nothing. So you can say everything its natural. Even if they're processed substances.. nature created them or they're ingredients at some point. So everything its natural.

But i dont why nature lovers are against killing animals when its nature for us to kill them :/ well most of them..

I like to go for the law of the jungle. Kill to eat or to avoid being eaten. I love eating meat, and i kill spiders if they're threating me, but im against killing as a sport and stuff.

But it the end, nature is more powerful than mankind, you see, golbal warming is repairing itself.

It's a bit silly, really. Mass-growing vegetables, pulling them up, sticking them in plastic, cutting them up into tiny pieces with a mass-produced utensil and sticking them in another mass-produced implement to boil for an exact length of time is considered natural, but a similar sequence of processes used to extract certain chemicals isn't :/

But it the end, nature is more powerful than mankind, you see, golbal warming is repairing itself.

It shouldn't be :P Mankind as an entity has far more potential for good than nature. Nature is brutal and unforgiving - it punishes weakness and rewards creatures which are most effective at killing. At least people have potential to be good, and most of us, in general, are.

I agree - that is most definately bad. But it's not bad because it's unnatural - it's bad because it's just nasty. You're falling into the same trap of equating 'natural' with 'good' and 'unnatural' with 'bad'. Animal cruelty is bad regardless of the form it takes.

Besides, who exactly defines what's natural and what isn't anyway? It's not like a farm of any size is a truly natural environment for an animal, regardless of how nice it is for them.

You drop a shot glass of half whiskey / half Bailey's into a glass half full of Guinness, then chug the whole mess. It's like swallowing a loaf of tasty bread whole.

I used to love it. I got absolutely smashed (like, so much it wasn't even remotely fun) off of various beer and shots at some point a couple of years ago, and since then I can't stand it :(

I'm trying to get myself liking it again. So far I can just about force a couple of pints on myself.

Explain to me why you would want that again..

Draft, bottled or canned? Because having drunk it on draft (it was only £2.10 a pint, I don't normally drink light beer) I can see where you're coming from. It's not the best tasting pint, but it aint too bad a brew either. Assuming you can get them in Canada, I'd recommended Corona or Sol with a slice of lime in them to start you off. Then move on to Foster's and Carling, or if not beers like Rolling Rock, Budweiser or Becks. It's all good stuff.

Try harder. We're having a pint during the London meet.

Really, the reason i haven't had a drink yet is because
one of my friends got extremely plastered at his buddies house.
He walked around his neighborhood looking for a girl we know, and all hate very much,
saying that he wanted to have sex with her.

Bad news is, she lived nearby, but luckily enough for him
he never found her house.

I had some of the Israeli beer [forgot which kind], when I was there, but it wasn't too good. Clearly you're not known for beer :)

I knew it was Actionsick, so I responded basically saying that in a PM...

I think it's kinda cute :]

Also, i think the funniest actual PM i got was somebody asking to fix the negative scores.
He said:

you can still get a negative score.
fix it, fucker.

I'm not a giant fan, but the sweeter the beer the better I like it =) But in reality, I don't drink beer for anything but social situations.

Isn't it ironic to drink to be social?

Yeah, they even put lights on the chiken's cages so they fool them into thinking it's day and they produce more eggs. But well, population grows, and not everybody owns a farm like they used. Now everybody has different jobs, and just everybody needs food.
Im against animal cruelty tho.

Well this is sorta related to beer..

So me and a few friends tonight went and got 1/8 of bud then we met up with this drinking party in the park..so an hour later i'm hitting on a decent looking chick and things are going well and we saw this car drive up..
we are at the park and the car is driving on the grass to get to us so we thought cops(were all underaged)
One of friends yells dip so me and friends dip..
now we were all pretty high/drunk so we didnt notice anyone at the party follow us..so after running like a mile we get a call from at the party saying that the car was one of there friends who was driving over more beer to the party..

Thus, I'm now very blown..

This weekend, Wiser's. Canadian Club and Royal Reserve are fine too.

I've been drinking budwiser, kokanee, and tiqila all for the last few days. (Speller errors most likely - I'm tired and going to bed sue me.)

I don't even drink but ever since gettin real high on oil and then real drunk I just can't resist a beer or two now. ^^

I............... have a thought to think about.

I may need more hose for it to work though...

RE: Beer

i do actually like the taste of beers and alcohol in general... im kind of a food critic about beers.. ill like swirl it in my mouth and try to pick up the flavors of its fermentation.. i find the different flavors you can intoxicate your taste buds with fascinating... I do prefer liquor over beer... i find theres more variety in liquor and its like such a vast world... i feel kinda like that rat in ratatouille when he eats that cheese with that mushroom and those swirly things are around him.

When i goto iceland i want to try a liquor called Brennivin... which translates to black death. Its apparently really disgusting but im so curious dammit.

My favorite beer when im in london is leffe. Its like chocolate milk.
