As for winning, that's not my goal here. In these cases, the journey and learning that comes along with it is far more fun Smiley (yes, I find this discussion entertaining)

Whoa now. If you aren't trying to win, you are automatically the loser. I won't defend that attitude.

Ok, let me rephrase that. I am not trying, or, more precisely, expecting her to change her mind about this. But I do love the challenge and seeing the reactions (OMG, I think *I* might be the troll O.O)

I forget who's getting trolled. These days, it's just a mashed-up blur of under-bridge debauchery.

you are getting godtrolled so hard, sucker.

It's likely, though her statements seem genuine, and, worse, not original in the least (i.e. I've come across people saying those things before, and honestly believing them)

Genuine or not, you're still getting godtrolled. How do you think people begin to believe a load of bullshit like that in the first place? You are responding in seriousness to someone posting about religion. Whether they are just trolling or really think you are an abomination and will burn in hell, you're not gonna win.

Due to the popularity of Rassah's coffee table, I opted to start it's own thread for all to discuss their obsessions with her table.

OK, GO!

I thought that Rassah is a him?

Yeah, I think Phinneaus got confused because he is constantly talking about his 'hubby'.

So, what part of her didn't I understand?

Now I am just confused. Rassah is a dude. His marriage is in DC...or maybe it's second life...I forget who's getting trolled. These days, it's just a mashed-up blur of under-bridge debauchery.

No good Christian would inform you with such ulterior motives.

"5. And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites [are]: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward."

It's only about letting you know I care.

How is you announcing publicly that you are praying for me, someone you don't really know, understand, or even know what kind of sins I may be involved in, supposed to be NOT you being a hypocrite, praying in the corner of [forums] that you may be seen? Are you not able to understand that you letting me know you care for me would make no difference to me, since 1) I don't know you, and 2) I don't think there is anything wrong about me for you to care about? Switch roles for a moment. Do you consider it as me being concerned about and caring about you if I tell you that I think your parents and church have psychologically abused you, and hope you will be able to overcome the religious harm done to you? If not, why do you suppose that I will take your actions to mean that you "care" about me, instead of them being just misguided pity with a touch of hubris and self-righteousness? And if you do understand that I likely will not "understand" your care, then why announce it to everyone, instead of privately hope for my salvation, unless you were doing it for selfish and self-righteous reasons?
(sorry for the big words and bit of mind chess, but, as I said, human intentions are VERY easy to expand on, and twist afterwards. I would prefer to use shorter, simpler statements, but I feel I need more specific words to express myself, and in a way, this is a sign of my severe lack of writing skills, so please bear with me)

you are getting godtrolled so hard, sucker.

I guess FAtlas is claiming that the only type of stuff he's into is plain old vanila photos and vids? Either "boring..." or "I don't buy it."

You really don't think there are people out there who are content with plain ole' penis in vagina sex without some freakish twist that comes with being molested at a young age?
To be fair, I like sticking my penis in any of several different female orifices.  I just stick to girls that don't have tails(besides that one time, but it was vestigial, and I was pretty drunk)

I was just trying to get a "Sex Talk with Sue" quote into this retarded thread...but yeah, choice of orifice isn't the issue, it's more the necessity of hiding their disgusting bodies under a costume. I want my bitches naked and spread eagle on my bed, not dressed up like a children's plush toy.

LED lamps:

too expensive, price will come down.
many are poorly designed and lack of customization options, that is why DIY is still popular.
pretty darn butt ugly hanging above a tank in many cases compared to ATI T5 for example.
buying now means you are stuck with a model that may very well be improved in many ways in the next 1-3 years.
resale value will be poor as price comes down leaving you with undesirable older model.

but that is just my opinion. i still prefer ATI kits and bulbs. proven track record and stylish.
eventually i will go LED in the future.

I tend to agree with this assessment. LEDs on the whole, aren't there yet, especially for marijuana. I have never seen a halfway decent bud flowered out of LED, but they're fine for cloning and small scale vegging, especially if you are in a tight space.

Plasma lights might fly for ganj, but their spectral output is totally wrong for aquaria. I am curious to see where that technology leads, cause it has some serious potential.
I thought the graphs I saw for the plasma lights looked great.  You could even change the spectrum by dimming it.  So far I've only seen one person use it on an aquarium and they never reported back as to growth, etc.  I know they use plasma on public aquariums, but I'm assuming those are fish only displays.  I really want to see where plasma goes too.  I've seen enough LED setups that just don't look natural due to multiple point sources creating funky shimmering colors.

Yeah, you can pay for a 2000w plasma light, run it at 25%, and have yourself a $4000 metal halide that you could have gotten for $150.

None of the major public aquariums use plasma on their large displays, to my knowledge. Maybe they run some as an experiment, but they don't offer any real electrical savings at this point. Steinhart is one of the leading research aquariums in the world and they use only 1000w MHs in their 200,000 gallon reef display and grow 'high-light' SPS corals down to about 15' depth.

I agree that LEDs look like a friggin epileptic seizure waiting to happen. I will stick with halides or T5s for the time being.

U not going to the right places maybe when you come?  And honestly...  most USA beer does suck.  But that's cool... We have 'Coors Light' up here too for when you come and visit.

Although your beer is cheap, your hard stuff is expensive and overpriced.  I would buy a bottle of Canadian rye whiskey before I would even think about importing your southern mash.   Cheesy

AAAND...when we're done with our crappy breweries we turn them into grow-ops: http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/CTVNewsAt11/20040112/pot_bust_040110/


Name twenty US beers. There are thousands upon thousands.

Even losing money often involves learning something. You don't learn anything from setting bills on fire other than that paper bills are flamable. Here, you at least learn how financial systems work, how things are valued, why the value drops, and how to avoid that in the future. Even if costly, it's still a very valuable lesson about something vast majority of people don't know about.

The only things his friend is learning after being convinced to invest in bitcoins are:
1) My friend is an idiot
2) Bitcoins are a bad investment

Dude, what are you talking about? $5 Rally!!! Make 1000 threads!!!!!!!!!!!!
1393  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What happened to beercoin? on: September 19, 2011, 03:00:44 AM
IDK...but I would be in total support of an international beercoin.

The problem is that the price of beer varies wildly.

I live in Canada and we love beer.  In Ontario, the cheapest deal right now is 15 bucks for 12 bottles at the beer store.  Out on the West coast, beer is double the price.

However, I live in a border town and can go across the bridge and get a 12 pack of 5.9% USA beer for less than 8 bucks.

Most USA beer sucks, but that 5.9% Natural Ice shit will fuck you up....but our weed is schwag so fuck them.

I forgot what I wanted to say.....



FTFY.

By the way, saying most USA beer sucks is just ridiculous. What you see exported to Canada is the equivalent of fucking kokanee or something. Get your hands on some west coast microbrews and then try and bash it.

Also, your weed is dirt, though it could be that same effect of only the worst shit getting exported. I tend to doubt that though, because every time I've been to Canada, the weed has sucked worse than the shit I smoked in high school.

You know, I tell people to get into Bitcoin not for the its amazing world changing potential, but to get in just to experience this market.
Next time just suggest that they set a few dollars on fire every day or two.  That will save them from wasting any extra time and give them the same experience.

Bitcoin is to a real market as my cock is to the empire state building. I was hanging out with some chick today that works as a trader. I asked her what her biggest single fuckup cost her clients. She's made mistakes worth all of bitcoin right now, and she still has a fucking job. This shit ain't shit, holmes.

So a guy who thinks he's a pony, and a guy who thinks he's a cat, are trying to cheer up/bash a guy who thinks hes a fox.

With me so far?

Okay, but the guy who thinks he's a pony also believes in a god.  The guy who thinks he's a cat finds that absurd.  They've forgotton about the guy who thinks he's a fox.

So then the guy who thinks he's a cat starts bashing the establishment of the god in whom the guy who thinks he's a pony believes.  The guy who thinks hes a pony doesn't take kindly to the guy who thinks he's a cat poking fun at his beliefs.

The fox eats popcorn.

It's a girl who likes ponies and pony art, and a guy who likes similar style anthropomorphic cat/animal art. I wasn't really trying to cheer up anyone Tongue
They girl who likes ponies is very religious, and apparently had her parents and church FREAK THE HELL OUT when a female friend of hers turned out to like like her, and sent her to a pray-the-gay-away camp. Now the pony girl is all "gay is bad, mkay? God says so." And the guy who likes cat art is gay and dealt with religion A LOT, and is like, "it's not bad, the people who say that are awefull, and god is not quite right, either"

And everyone else eats popcorn Cheesy

Lemme tell you something about Harry Potter...; Warlocks are the enemies of God!

It would be more helpful if you bought the coins instead. Then miners with cheaper electricity could add more hashing power than you can for the same amount.
I think that your thinking isn't right.
You are of course free to think whatever you like, but this and your negative attitude to greed is the same as saying that market economy is a bad idea. You would basically rather get less hashing power than give money to those greedy capitalists mining for profit.

I agree with you. I really don't get why profit is looked down upon so harshly. Fucking A, man...everyone wants to get rich. The market will react to such, and everything will work itself out in the end.

You kidding me? lol, I hate the public. The public is the only group of people that will stand there and congratulate you one moment and curse you the next. It's how I got up as far as I did with Wal-Mart both times. Agreed that the trading cards are valuable to their collectors. That's why their called collectibles. What should I focus on then? Only thing I really have is that virtual marketplace idea that'll probly be picked to pices in the next few posts. I'm out of ideas on what to use bitcoins for then.

Oh, I agree totally about the public, don't get me wrong.  Lots of people hate their jobs though, you have proven skill in that area even if you don't like it.  I think for your choice of focus in sales you should take a look at the other successful high volume bitcoin marketplaces and see what they are selling for some ideas.  The idea is to find something that will be profitable, not necessarily something you have an interest in like trading cards.

  

Or just start slangin' dub sacks on silkroad.

So, your hobby didn't turn a profit and I am a douche because of it? Huh...
No you're a douche for thinking I didn't invest in anything. I'm sorry you don't like trading cards, that's not my fault. They cought my attention so I bought em. Plain and simple.

Quote from: RandyFolds
I don't know what pictures you are talking about, but that's beside the point. I have been trolling up till now, but seriously...get your shit together. You can't blame the world for not pulling yourself up by your bootstraps. Everyone has ups and downs. This is fucking America. Try, try again. You will not see me give a motivational speech often, but goddamn, fella. Get outta that funk.
There was a reason I locked my thread after a point. I made it up with some folks' help to stay in the game but I can't do it if assholes like FAtlas and you and half the other folks on this thread keep knockin. I see what the point was of this thread. You guys weren't done bashing me in my thread, so the op decided to post a "poll" and state that there was unfinished business that needed to be taken care of. Where? I don't see any unfinished business. All I see are a bunch of guys that don't have anything else better to do a 1am but continue to bash me over the site, how I run the site, and the gall to pick my life apart like it's the public livrary. I already apologised once. Hell, I apologised twice. You won't get a third one out of me before I start saying fuck off to people.

It is 9pm, I am slamming beers in preparation for the bar...you know...the one where you go interact with THE PUBLIC (say that in spooky old timey voice).

Once again, you have the reins here. You don't like what's going on, fucking change it. A bunch of trolls on a bitcoin forum ain't gonna help you, brother.
