Or they might decide that, for the good of the galactic hive-mind/community, it would be better to annihilate those pesky individuals so they don't run around causing trouble.

With this we don't know what we don't know. Consider if they were silicon based or something and didn't have a lot of experience with orgo. I don't know - chemistry seems so vast that there could easily be naturally occuring systems we could not imagine before seeing them in practice.
Now I feel happy. :| You're the second person in as many days to be channeling Nessus.Quote:
Just a biologist. What baffles me is how somebody can understand evolution and think otherwise. See Nessie's Darwin quote. Pretty much nails it. And trust me, I've struggled long and hard to find something better. It just ain't there if you stick to the facts. :(
IIRC the Kzinti didn't earn their advanced tech - they were tapped as warrior slaves by another race then overthrew them and used their technology to start a conquering spree. Not that that means anything at all, being sci-fi and all...Quote:
Even then Kzin could be considered an example. :)
I didn't read Mote. Do you fear aliens?Quote:
But where is the bar set? Reasonable enough to escape self-annihilation does not mean reasonable enough to co-exist with another species. And consider "A mote in God's eye" and whether a different species could trust us enough. Only if they were vastly superior.
That's a good point. :(Quote:
Sure, you could consider a communal system. Now, consider what ants do to other nests of the same species, much less other species. Darwinism still works, even if the unit is a community and not an individual. Consider what we do to other species. It is about 99% "what can I gain from this creature."
Not so good. You guys are all depressing.
Let's go a step further. Consider they are based on something we don't even know exists; something we can't even imagine because of our limited perception or knowledge of what could possibly exist. They show up without us even sensing their presence and take what they need, leaving us here to die of thirst.
It's so nice of you to equate facts of physical reality with 'channeling' me :)Quote:

When the superior alien race comes, they better bring a vastly improved information management and notification system, or I'm gonna start shooting them in the face. :mad:
First four episodes... which aired like 7 (?) months ago... were actually quite good. I can get back to you on the next five, once I've watched them (if you want).
It's a classic solution for a reason. :p
I'd offer to punch them in the gonads... but it's not a sure thing that we'll know where those are right away. And maybe they'll be Silicoids or something, with sharp, jagged granite protrusions for penii... and punching that seems just stupid.
Don't wanna make a liar outta myself or anything.
Not many, believe me.
Even those ponies have pretty huge members, and believe me when I say that you don't wanna show up at the ER too many times with a perforated colon and horse semen dribbling out of your sphincter.
Nosy fucking doctors start asking all kinds of embarrassing questions and calling all kinds of government agencies and cops... :mad:

Not sure how I even got to the Sun, but whatever. Don't know how "accurate" it is, but it at least fits with what y'all've been saying.
The Sun is famous for featuring tits on page 3.
Given that, I'll leave it for you to figure out their accuracy on any reporting matters.
Heh - just decided to search for some classic Sun headlines.

:headbang:
:haha: I read a hysterical one not too long ago.
But still, tits!
NSFW if your employer doesn't appreciate breasts.
Spoiler:
Finally found the hidden boob picture in the D&D section!
Was starting to lose hope :D
:heart: Lolli
Ok, let's not post pornography on this site, there are a few minors. Please refrain from doing so in the future. Thanks.
That was a wonderful spoiler. :)
Say, something recently posted reminded me of a question. What's policy on posting pornography on here? And not the nudes with maybe a butt crack or a nipple showing, but full on, hardcore (but tasteful) porn? I've got some really nice, artistic DP photos, and a whole bunch of great anal sex, straight-on box shots to share. :o
If we want to see women subjected to terrible things we can but look at Islam, Kain, we don't need to see your wank-material
So you want YM to stop visiting the site, but are unwilling to get your hands dirty and do what it takes to achieve your goal?
Pffft. Typical. :p
Wait... are you saying that pr0n is immoral?

Good things come to those who wait.
That wasn't porn, and it was tagged.
There are few things in life as important as making a pregnant woman happy.
Well, I like porn.
Hey, I like great anal sex (please note, Geegee, that this comment has absolutely nothing to do with my love life at all. even if I said I had really great anal sex this morning, that would only be about my SEX life)
What the hell is immoral about sex and nudity again? I've fucked muslims who were much less uptight than you.
That's gonna happen, anyway.
How this relates to my post you quoted I have no idea and I have a horrible feeling the explanation would depress meQuote:

I heard your penis vanishes into the Tartarus as it enters a vagina, the [female] mate eats the male once finishes, girls have cooties.
Feel free to share, since that's pretty much a sure thing either way. Or, have you not noticed lolli and Nessie and Bitter and ][ear and...?
And if you share, you might actually learn a thing or two about the topic. So, you've got nothing to lose, and knowledge to gain.
Presumably your implication that anal sex involves "women subjected to terrible things." I chalked it up to you mocking Islam, but you can see where others might not.
Fair enough. Don't post anything you're uncomfortable with, as no one wants a repeat of the "my name is ______, I attend the ______ High school in ______, Virgina, and my hottest teacher is Mz. ______" incident. :D
Do keep in mind, however, that contrary to how you've been raised, there's nothing shameful or dirty about sex. Everyone has it, and like all things in life, practice makes perfect!
Also, this -------------v
I still hate you for that. I might type up an essay about it tomorrow. Again, it has nothing to do with what I call myself (a purple flying cat) or how my parents raised me.
That was random.
People might like you if you would calm the fuck down. Think before you post. Don't consider everything to be a challenge.
And the next time you use autistic as an insult I will ask one of the internet tough-guys to cyber-kick your teenage ass.
Just not any of the ones my 10-year-old daughter could snap in half.
You do realize I'm joking? I'm pretty sure I'd insult Cain if he really pissed me off the way I insulted thenecrophiliacnihilist, the guy with liver problem(s), and the guy with a small sample size with a tiny standard deviation...
