Again, we're talking about people who are being responsible.. not idiots that are drinking and driving and being totally irresponsible.

Food is evil. Look at what it does to people: some might overeat, become obese, and die of heart attacks. People who can't afford food steal to get it.

Money is evil. Look at what it does to people: some might become obsessed with money and ignore everything else in their life.

Cars are evil. Look at what they do to people: some who can't drive might cause horrible accidents.

But don't only assholes do that sort of things?? Are you trying to say that you can do wrong/bad things (become alcoholic for example) and still be right?

Hi,

Oh, ok then :) . I came here to look for a *descent* SNES emu anyways :lol: . Seriously, I have not seen a thread diverge from the original topic this wildly. Its pretty amusing to think that something that started something like "SneSe is a good " getting ended up like "I like beer". My vote goes for the thread of the year award.

stay safe,

I'm an occasional drinker, but my drink of choice is polska wódka :) when partying or beer when not. I also like to drink sake straight from the bottle, it kinda tastes like crystal clear water full of smoothness to me :P.

Those things have a purpose, alcohol does not. And, the incentive to "misuse" those things, is much less than the incentive would be to drink too much. Btw, did you know that obsession for money only affects 1% of the population? (there might be more people than that, but only the mega rich that own banks and other institutions that have power over people, can affect people in the sense of someone being obsessed with money; but they only really affect low-income familes that for some reason believe that they can afford to have kids). Like, if my nextdoor neighbor got, say 30 grand a year; they are normal, and have no impact on others, so their obsession for money does nothing (conincidentally, my nextdoor neighbour is on 30k a year, and does have an obsession for money :D ). I imagine 99% of people wouldn't want to drive like idiots, in valuing their own lives, and the amount of accidents with cars is much, much smaller in comparison to the impact that alcohol has on people. Again, people who eat too much and don't get enough excersise, do not affect others, and when they die they are actually helping society (means us tax payers don't pay for them to get their ignorant selves fixed in hospital).
Plus, you are twisting the context in which I spoke.

And yes, please continue.

Well, other than a fuel for engines (as I mentioned earlier), please tell me a purpose for alcohol. Though I said alcohol can be used as a fuel, petrol/diesel are far superior, which makes alcohol obsolete for that purpose. So, tell me what purpose alcohol has, please.
Come, enlighten me.

You are a scaredy cat; admit it now. Your arguments about crime dropping if alcohol, I dunno, were prohibited have already been disproved historically.

Read the part where I said "then again" and actually MENTIONED the prohibition, saying how actually, crime would only increase. And you're implying that I meant completely stop, but I only said drop 20% when initially saying that it would reduce crime. You are just repeating exactly what I said myself.

I also said (before saying to prohibit alcohol) "if people decided to stop drinking forever", which would null the effect of prohibition. But, that would be a stupid thing to expect, because people are not going to simply stop drinking alcohol anyway.

And no, I'm not a scaredy cat.

I guess I was proven wrong about the alcohol. Ok, in that case when I'm 18 I'm going to start drinking alcohol moderately.

(by the way, I don't drink too much water. I generally drink about half a pint of it every hour or two. That's a healthy amount, right?).
out of curiosity, franky, do you often seem to find yourself in "me vs. the world" situations?
Yes, I will be honest about that one. I often feel like people are trying to take over and take everything away from me (like when multiple people compete to get a job somewhere, and only one person can have it), and that the world tries to fuck me up. I feel as though I have to fight to get what I want, or I'll lose it; so I work extremely hard to get what I want in life. And I never settle, either.
I'm also extremely stubborn, and I hate to lose (even in trivial things, half the time).

petrol/diesel are fossil fuels, using them means pumping CO2 into the atmosphere so they're not superior in the not fucking up atmosphere CO2 levels sense.


And really it sounds like you have kind of serious psychological issues, I don't mean this as an insult but as actual advise: Consider going to see a psychologist.

You actually believe that propoganda? Sorry but it's more heat from extra solar activity that causes more CO2, not that more CO2 means more heat. Yeah, ozone layer, this:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
thick,
and added CO2, this:
-
thick.

Just look at the ice ages: more CO2 appears because of extra solar activity (there was about 10 times as much CO2 in the atmosphere then than there is now). The ice melted because there was more heat from the sun. The CO2 is just a side effect.

The same thing that happened to end the ice ages, is what's happening now to melt the polar ice caps.

So, I will quite happily drive a car and pump out as much CO2 as I like.
And don't you dare say "yeah, but CO2 will still pollute the air". For mother...fucking.....sake... CO2 is how living things grow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This whole business of "global warming" is just greedy men in suits that want your money.
Yeah, let's travel to the sun and try to change it back to how it was before this whole global warming thing. That'll definitely work!
(This statement may sound silly, but it's in much the same spirit as that expressed in the propoganda you see on TV about it. And at least I'm telling the truth; those people on TV just lie straight to your face).
Climate change? Yeah, sorry but you're gonna have to deal with it; coz there's nothin u can doo.
It is simply a weather pattern that cannot be stopped by us humans, and will only stop of it's own accord. Damn man, do you people actually think you can edit the earth!?!?!?

CO2 isn't generated by ice melting. Really. It's generated from your ass.
