Dank, you should read a book called Zen Mind, Beginners Mind. I think it'll really open your eyes to the truth. You're close to the answers, but still need some guidance. I started out on my own, forging my own path, but I realized it was difficult. Why not take time to learn from others? Through copious amounts of weed, heroin, amphetamines, nitrous oxide and meditation I was able to move from a simple novice to become an adapt. It's not my place to direct you, but through sheer will or some innate talent you have a gift, please don't waste it!

Once you gain true enlightenment, I trust you'll contact me through alternative channels.

Namaste brother.

Not drowning would be a bit tricky. T-t-t-t-ricky!

-Zoey

Then how come you had to?

Do you need energy to jump a tsunami with your motor bike?

-Zoey

No hon. You have to eat to survive you dumb shit.

-Zoey

So, have you caved and eaten yet dank?

-Zoey

Hon, I'm saying you're full of it; because you are!

If you really are planning to survive without food or sleep, well, James Randi will give you a million bucks, so congratulations? In reality, however, you'll die.

Sorry, that's the truth.

-Zoey

It was at least believable then, hon. Now it's just obvious.

-Zoey

I never said you did, hon. I stated that *if* you had, it would have destroyed you. I'm not judging you either, I'm simply presenting my opinion as fact.

You're either:

A) Trolling.

B) Pretending.

You're not the real deal, everyone can see that now and a lot of people could see it long ago, so just stop.

-Zoey

As someone who has used a lot of recreational drugs on an intellectual level, everything dank has been babbling about in this thread is pure pseudo-science bullshit. He's either never rolled/tripped and is regurgitating a heaping helping of word salad to make people think he has, or he's a troll.

If he injected DMT, his ego would be crushed so hard that he would pretty much never recover. If he dropped cid he would basically go through a mental breakdown.

There's no way he's done any of that.

-Zoey

I'm kind of sad to see dank turned out to be a troll. *Sigh*

-Zoey

Maybe she is trans? Are you trans usage? Are you post-op or pre-op?

-Zoey

Hon, you might want to run a spell check on this. I also can't figure out why you've got pictures of iPods up there? It also looks like you're still trying to sell picks with corporate logos on them. I thought you decided not to do that?

-Zoey

Because you just *know* he's masturbated to it. I imagine that table would glow like New York City at night if you hit it with a black light.

Hon, this right here is what's wrong with the majority of the BitCoin community. They think they know better than the professionals. They don't. This is exactly why all the BitCoin exchanges fail. This is why people get sucked into so many scams. The lay-man really doesn't know best. BitCoinTalk is an absolute textbook example of the Dunning-Kreuger effect.

-Zoey

Sorry hon, Dank Bank kind of is a Ponzi... I also read your whole Hookah thread and Monster-Ant started off respectful but it degraded quickly because of how poorly you took criticism.


Actually, if you read the thread on SA they go into great detail about what's wrong with the investments and certain aspects of BitCoin in general. There appears to be quite a few people who are MBAs, finance majors, bankers and brokers over there. Haven taken quite a few finance courses in college it's all pretty sound advice. I'd also like to point out what they're doing isn't really trolling. Making fun of somebody and pointing out obvious flaws in people's logic isn't trolling. I'm sure a lot of them jump on the bandwagon in making fun without quite knowing what's going on, but tons of people do that here as well, in this very thread in fact.

I'm not trying to defend them, but you really should know what you're talking about before you blast somebody. Plus, it seems they do a lot of good for the internet; they're involved in charities, they've been the spearhead in taking down Reddit's pedo section, hell, one of their members was killed in that attack on the consulate in Libya and they raised over $50k for his family.

On the flip side there is quite a bit of dumb and just plain mean stuff that goes on over there. The way they grief people in online games is a good example.

As for the furry issue, I'd have to say I agree with the stance that's its disgusting and everyone involved needs psychological help. In my time on the internet, I've seen a lot of furries equate their fetish with being gay, which... Yeah, just no. You weren't born that way. It's something you picked up through environmental means and use it to be a unique special snowflake. The fact that this wasn't a thing before the internet is very telling. Basically, they start hanging around on boards and chatrooms with more of their kind, which is just a huge echo chamber. This makes them believe that what they're doing is normal and alright.

Then you get to the point where you have an anthropomorphic fox with a huge erection on your coffee table and when someone says, "Ew gross!" they scream that they're being persecuted because someone rightfully made fun of them.

Here's a tip: If cartoon animals turn you on, you're fucked up in the head and should seek help.

I realize I'm being aggressive here, but I'm tired of people placating made up issues when there's real shit in the real world that we need to deal with. Like Gay Rights and Women's Rights.

I've spent the last week reading through the BitCoin thread over at SA, and I hate to say it, but they've called it every time an "investment" turned out to be a scam and for the most part they are quite right about a lot of the BCT community. It's so insular here that a lot of people either can't, or don't want to see it. I feel like a lot of ridicule stems from people not listening to them.

The majority of their threads revolve around this community and not BitCoin itself. It's clear that there's money to be had in BitCoin, and quite a few SA members have made quite a chunk of change off it. However, they got into it very early.

You might want to open your mind a little bit and learn to take constructive criticism. A lot of the so called "trolls" are actually rather helpful. Look at that one guy who has put a ton of effort into Dank's Hookah Lounge and Bank threads, trying to teach him basics of running a business. It's not their fault Dank won't listen. That's a lesson that should apply to everyone here.

Just my BTC0.2!

-Zoey

Do you have a real world job hon? Following your threads on here it seems like you have a lot of ideas and are very passionate about things.

-Zoey

Hon, by the time the Jalapeño gets to you, BFL's ASIC boxes will have pushed the difficulty so far up you'll never make your money back. Why don't you just put the money you'd spend on a Jalapeño towards this project?

At this point you're not going to have enough, or make enough money to catch up on mining. (My finance classes are finally paying off. Cost-Benefit-Analysis FTW! LOL!)

No, whomever creates the work has to release it under a Creative Commons license. If the designer of a work does not specifically release their work under some sort of license it's automatically considered under copyright by US law. The logo designer can get more protection by filing for a copyright or trademark.

None of these corporations are going to release any of their corporate logos under a Creative Commons license as that would most likely invalidate their trademark and at the very least dilute their brand.

You could request to use their logo for your commercial product, but they would charge in the ten of thousands of dollars if they did it at all.

The CC license doesn't give you the right to use any work you wish, it's not like a drivers license, hon. It's something that the producer of the content has to apply to their work.
