Off Topic / Inside North Korea.
« on: January 08, 2011, 07:02:18 PM »
We watched a series of videos taken from under cover cameras from inside North Korea in school on Friday.
National Geographic did a documentary on the country. Watching this will further help you understand the tensions between NK and the rest of the world today.

Off Topic / iTunes forgeted me over
« on: January 07, 2011, 10:09:04 PM »
When I go to buy and download Careless Whispers by George Michael, a window comes up saying that I need to update my credit card information. Apparently, all my past purchases didn't go through, and now I owe $19.39.
So, when i first got my iPod, I put information on there, thinking it would all work (it was all accurate), and now somehow, I loving owe them $19.29.

Drama / "Magick" Mage; behind the alcohol, drugs and love orgies
« on: January 02, 2011, 03:31:12 AM »
We all know who he is. He's that person who posts those positive things, even though the topic was initially meant to specifically point out an individual and criticize them.
Yes, at times, it can be irritating. During my short duration of membership here at the Blockland forums, I have come to know Mage as that guy who posts those goddamn, lovey-dovey, feel good, Dr Phil bullstuff posts hoping to troll someone.
I was wrong. He doesn't have a motive to piss anyone off.
I PM'd Mage earlier. The conversation is as follows.
I asked Mage if he had a motive to troll and piss anyone off with his hippie posts.
I explained the context of my question, telling him that it's not normal to see someone posting such things without a motive to troll.
I asked him how he felt about me confronting him on his posts.
I wanted to know how the conversation was familiar to him, I knew I was hitting a milestone.
I then truly realized Mage was a different person. He isn't like any other Blockland member here. I asked him if he had an awakening of some sorts, or some altering experience to make him act the way he does.
Mage is a different kind of member. I believe that if more people (Bisjac) would be like him, the world would be a better place.

Excuse me? :o

It's funny, really. A person has no issue believeing that one can have a rude and condescending character when they see such. Yet when even a scrap of kindness is shown, ulterior motives always seem to be assumed.
Regardless, I do not speak "lovey-dovey feel good bullstuff", thank you very much. That which I say, my beliefs and observations about Love and life, are all in truth by my own heart and mind. As for when I am kind, I am because I want to be; because I see many reasons to be; because I happen to Love people and life itself. Now whether it's the internet, or face to face, or on a telephone, or by telegram, nothing changes this.
I asked him how he felt about me confronting him on his posts.
It depends on the context of the situation.
In this matter, I was initially suprised. I didn't know why you were sending it to me nor where it came from in the first place. Your word usage within both messages, however, did make me fairly anxious. But over all this conversation is rather familiar to me. :o
I wanted to know how the conversation was familiar to him, I knew I was hitting a milestone.
I've been contacted many times, and asked by many people things all in relation to this. I've heard it all, "Why are you so nice?", "Why are you trolling us all?", "Are you just pretending?", "Are you condescending or just idiotic?", "Why are you a hippie", etc. etc. At one point, I just realized that there are those in the world who with think you have ulterior motives. But you can't let that stop you from being kind. It is, afterall, in giving that one recieves. And while it can be sometimes exhausting, it's worth wild at the end of the day. c:

I don't hold back my problems. I don't bottle up my emotions, either. That's terrible unhealthy. I face them, just as anyone else would. I can feel pain just as I can joy. It's in that diversity that I form empathy. And it's in that empathy that I find compassion for others.
No "awakening" or vision or something like such. I simply realised - after my fair share of rough times - that Loving each other is better than being bitter to one another. I, pesonally, believe God put us here to Love one another and grow as one, not hate each other.
Mage is a different kind of member. I believe that if more people (Bisjac) would be like him, the world would be a better place.

Off Topic / The friends Over at Gamestop
« on: December 28, 2010, 07:36:35 PM »
So my brother and his friend want to go to Gamestop and pick up Black Ops. He has the money so why not. I drive them to the mall and go to Gamestop.
I already have the game, I'm familiar with its content.
As there looking for the game on the wall, I'm holding a space in line checking out a guide to Fallout: New Vegas. So they get the game, and come up to the register. Some fat guy that most likely lives in his mom's basement, the usual Gamestop worker, is working the counter.
"Are you familiar with the consisting content, gore, harsh language, online multiplayer, the occasional f-bomb, [he goes on for like 40 seconds] etc?"
This starfish is trying to shun me for taking my brother to buy Black Ops. I'm familiar with the content, I don't need a 5 minute description about the game I play every day.
[/rant]

Off Topic / If the US were to collapse, what would you do?
« on: December 23, 2010, 10:35:52 PM »
I have a read a few articles, and watched a few videos based upon the US's future. It most likely we will be overwhelmed with debt and collapse.
In the case of that event, what would you do?
I would probably pack my stuff and move to the UK.

General Discussion / Blockland Store
« on: December 23, 2010, 12:38:02 PM »
I don't understand why we don't have an online store for Blockland. A place where you can buy your own Blockland t-shirts, hoodies, posters and such.

Off Topic / NM Gov. Bill Richardson to vist NK - Wtf?
« on: December 16, 2010, 10:12:31 PM »
What the forget is this bullstuff.
"I am increasingly concerned with the recent actions by the North Koreans, which have raised tensions and are contributing to instability on the Korean Peninsula."
Seriously? You're a goddamn governor. Jesus Christ.
http://nknews.org/2010/12/new-mexico-governor-to-visit-nk-next-week/
So by sending a Governor of a US Sate, they plan on easing tensions? We are giving NK exactly what they want; attention. If we sanctioned them, and made a significant effort to isolate them, their wouldn't be a problem.
Seriously. They are almost the smallest country in the world. What the forget could they possibly do? Develop a nuke? Whoop-dee-loving-doo! We have enough nukes to blow up the planet 6 million times. Not to mention that every world power has a nuclear defense system that can shoot a nuke straight out of the sky!

Off Topic / "Operation Payback" - Possibly the first cyber war
« on: December 10, 2010, 05:59:50 PM »
"Operation Payback," as they call it, was planned by a select few 4chan-elites. They targeted attacks on torrent sites, aiming to DDoS piracy opponents. Initial reaction then increased into an attack on big business, law firms, and individuals. Ultimately affected, organizations that had condemned WikiLeaks prior.
As you may know, it is not illegal to leak confidential information. It is, however, illegal to obtain it. Assange leaked it, he did not obtain it. The people who obtained it are unknown.
Information leaked includes cables stating future plans to launch probes, attacks, information consistent with other country's weapons arsenal, etc.
Could this possibly be the first cyber war?
