Testamonial:  And i have actually gone to a bar and had a bouncer try to start a fight with me on the way in. I broke his teeth out of his fucking mouth and put his face through a passenger side window of a car.

Guess thats what the Internet was build for, pussy motherfuckers taking shit in safety...

It made perfect sense for a bunch of dirty wanderers. Kinda like how an alcoholic has to go completely straight to get their life together.

Doesn't make much sense for the world of today though.

Modern religions base their beliefs on situations that have ceased to exist. The only way to build a timeless system of ethics is to base your beliefs on a situation that never happened to begin with. Like that time when vampires took over the Earth in '85.

Fuck it.  I'm going to get ordained as a Catholic priest and start robbing banks and mugging people.  I mean, apparently, you can be excused any crime if you're in with the Big V.

Lets try it on an even simpler level:

1) There is a minimum energy/mass things can have, everything can be measured in a multiple of this minimum.

2) Objects at this size, or close to it, don't have an exact position or velocity, so they look like waves in most experiments.

3) If you try to measure the location, they act more like particles, just to fuck with you, but the velocity gets more uncertain, also just to fuck with you.

Conclusion: God hates physicists.

I base my ethical code on the cyborg political coup of 2054.

That's because they are monkeys that can't handle messy facts, but think only in terms of keywords and symbols.

This drives me up the fucking wall sometimes.  I was going to add something else but I stepped away and forgot.

I feel for ya.  It's like that story Kai had of the researcher who offered his thoughts on homosexuality.  People just flip out when they hear certain words uttered outside the narrative they expect.
