Three layers. I already said what metals; nickel and copper. There is no "empty space" inside. You make me want to cry.

I know... the revelation that I'm sometimes wrong shakes my belief in the world, too.

Still, I wonder why I didn't measure any increase in diameter when I tore those coins up.

Arefalis, what does it mean to you that even the new people find you insufferable?

It means blither blather platitude something to indicate smug indifference. Also, snarky comeback.

Cainad got it.

Also, some of them don't.  Which should I be paying attention to?

ass-talking

Everyone hates you.

Also, jump off a bridge already.

Of your last fifteen posts, Madonna, nine have been about me.  If I didn't know better, I'd assume you had a crush.

stupid insinuation

Oh boy, wait until Kai sees that one.  :lulz: :lulz: :lulz:

EDIT: Almost forgot two very important things.

1st: it's Erin, Nigel. Not a new person, unless joining in March counts as "new" with respect to this.

2nd: ARAFAILIS:

repeated indictment to die

Here's some new ones:

"Aptless!  Die in a fire!"
"Arafloss, masturbate with a lawnmower."
"Areyoudeadyet: Piss on a socket."
"Araphaelis... go consume improperly prepaired sushi.

Then stab yourself."  (This one makes more sense if you know Raphael was my least favorite Turtle.)

Feel free to mix'n'match, or come up with entirely new ones.

I knew it couldn't be that hard to get you to quote directly from me!  Would you prefer one of "charge, reprimand, invective, cursing, damning, complaint, insinuation"?  They're synonyms, but I felt like "indictment" had the best flow.

None of those are right. I'm not insinuating you should die. I'm telling you to die, very quickly, as soon as possible, post-haste even. Surely your advanced super-space-brain can understand the subtle distinction.

How about this one: Arafelis, stop being so offputtingly condescending. You may be used to being the smartest kid in your hometown but here you're dealing largely with people who are both highly intelligent and highly educated, so you're basically making yourself look very foolish by trying to play expert.

Basically, if you're critiquing a bunch of scientists, sociologists and artists for not producing a volunteer-effort literary masterpiece, you are either deluded about what's happening here, or deliberately selecting the one arena in which you might possibly excel, and missing the point of grassroots publications while you're at it. There are a few excellent writers here, and most of the rest are quite competent, but it's still not a school of writing; it's a Discordian internet forum.

So suck it the fuck up and try to contribute meaningfully, asshole.

If this was a literary forum and the goal was to produce a journal of high literature, your nitpicking might have a valid point. Sadly, it isn't, and it doesn't.

Through me the way to the city of woe, Through me the way to everlasting pain, Through me the way among the lost.
Justice moved my maker on high.
Divine power made me, Wisdom supreme, and Primal love.
Before me nothing was but things eternal, and eternal I endure.
Abandon all hope, you who enter here.
