yeah, its angsty and cool to declare your own race unfit of life,
…but do not eat my potato flavored chiken wangs you assfuckhatard!
Yep…makes a lot of sense so far. Might we bother you for a link?
No, a cancer is any of various malignant neoplasms characterized by the proliferation of anaplastic cells that tend to invade surrounding tissue and metastasize to new body sites.
That is really quite different from humans.
We spread, and consume resources. We don’t ‘fit’ with the equilibrium of nature. We are like a virus in those ways. I am agent smith.
Phooey, Lobsang beat me to it while my computer was cogitating on whether or not to let me reply.
Okay, how about slime mold? Humans are slime mold on the pond of the earth.
Agent Smith, with other Agents: We are the cure.
Robert Smith, with other musicians: No, we are The Cure!
Um, spreading and consuming resources is the definition of life. And nature is a dynamic equilibrium, not a static one. Which means that it encompasses viruses, volcanoes, solpsists, and cancers.
And you are so not agent smith! Elrond was agent smith!
hmm someone close this thread…
it started out as a rant about how people need to quit the whole “ours is a cursed race, our doom shall be deserved” act… but it turned into a “I can’t opperate a computer correctly” thread
Why do people have a problem with the humility of our race thing?
I’m just saying.
Well, all I have to say on this is if we do manage to wipe ourselves out, we do deserve it. Experiment over, this batch flawed, end. I don’t really see any other logical position.
(Now, if this thread gets closed just after I post this, I win!)
No! You can’t win! I win! I always win! ME ME ME!
Was that cancerous?
Just remembered. Watched Matrix Revolutions last night. RE: the end. WTF?
You should check “the wit and wisdom of cancer” by Nina Paley, one of my favorite cartoonists:

When come back, bring coherence, point, clue.
Actually, don’t come back at all.
Gadfly, the OP has already stated that submitting this thread was a slip of the mouse. Unless you’re referring to the rest of us here, in which case you’re a little closer to the target.
(I WIN!)
(Um, is trying to get the last post in before a thread is locked down kosher?)
No.
Underpants.
Goddammit, Ginger, don’t rip off my shtick.
Anyway…
Find a being superior to humans, and then I’ll set up a religion to worship it. 'Til then, I’m on the top of the food chain, baby!
My wording was inadequate. I meant to imply that as individuals we are really not all that important. As a race we are significant (not necesarily in a good way) but as individuals we are insignificant blips (the vast majority of us, at least). Virtually meaningless. This is what I mean by humility.
Yes?
