just because it's unpopular, doesn't mean it don't be challenged.
[QUOTE=Teracotta;44196185]I've a spotless criminal record and my security clearance just got ok'd for my 35M the other day. All this mudslinging is pretty funny though.[/QUOTE]
honestly and truthfully, you don't seem to be terribly self aware about the implications of what you're saying.

dunno if it's unpopular or not but your avatar is cool
don't change it
I have this dream sometimes:
I am speeding through some tropical paradise's waters on a huge, luxurious boat filled with beautiful, naked women. From time to time, I'll leave the helm and do a few bumps of pure, unadulterated cocaine, and chase it with some liquor. I am old, and I am happy. I know all of these women on a deep, personal level, and they all genuinely like to be around me, even without the drugs and opulence.
Sometimes, when I'm stuck in my shitty ass retail job folding clothes in a cramped, stuffy stock room, this is all I can think about. I've been struggling with drug dependency and depression for the past few years and the only times I can really recall being genuinely happy was deep in a post-coitus laze with my ex-fiance, or high off my ass with my best friends. I'm cleaning up and on my way to enlisting with the United States Coast Guard, but I have this nagging feeling in the back of my head that I'll never be as happy as I was when life was faster, blurrier, and without any regard to consequence.

This is the kind of guy that would get it everyone.
[QUOTE=Teracotta;44195953]I'm pursuing my happiness, not theirs. It's not like I'm dead set on shooting people. I'm dead set on a high paying job that has interesting hours, locations, requirements, responsibilities, and a sense of adventure. Shooting people is just part of the job.[/QUOTE]You're really self-centered.
Teracotta, I'm not implying anything [negative/positive] by saying this, but I would love to hear how your life turns out in the next 30 years assuming you get everything you are asking for, sincerely.
[QUOTE=Teracotta;44196410]Yes.[/QUOTE]
And just like that I like you

Man, Teracotta...
I don't think I've seen you post at all until today, you've already made yourself into a complete twat in my eyes.
[QUOTE=Teracotta;44196185]Okay lemme see. What have I got? 25k sitting plus good stock options. How did I get it? Working connections through personal meetings and a well connected relative who works with high society and upper echelon hotels and corporations. Did I work for it? Other than having meetings set, I have done all my own business. Did I use my parents money? I have been financially independent since 16. How old am I? Low 20's.[/QUOTE]
oh yeah, well I own 16 cars and a space shuttle, my dad is nasa and steam, and I earn 30k a month by doing nothing!

I picture myself either dead, or living comfortably in a high-rise loft in a nice city along the coast or in Europe. Financially set for the rest of my life. A part time job so that I don't get bored. A motorcycle I take out to the track to race when I feel like it. Head to the clubs and maybe a rave like the cool old fart I will be. Wake up Sunday with a shitty headache and way too many people in my bed. GI bill and stocks just pumping more and more money into my accounts. Eventually settle with someone grow old and waste away into bliss.
Before so I will write a memoir of my time as a fortune hunter, marauder, and all around selfish individual.
[QUOTE=Blazedol;44198225]And just like that I like you[/QUOTE]
I personally respect anyone who can state what the believe and what they want to do without worrying over the opinions of others. Respecting someone and liking someone aren't always the same thing.
That said, I like you to. I like most people. They're fun.
This whole "hating fat people with a passion" is a fucking joke. Literally the people who flame the most are one of the most insecure sods I've ever seen. I know these guys who think fat people are scum of the earth, and every time I critize them for their own lifestyle, they go completely apeshit. One of them even camwhores over the Internet and takes steroids, like wtf.

How do you inject camwhores?
Ironic condsidering I'm making a judgement on an entire group of people based on one or two other people.

It's a seperate thing, I'll switch it up so it's smoother.

I'm just some guy behind a monitor. I doubt it'll be that effective.
Better than constantly feeding him, though.

[QUOTE=T.F.W.O.;44185908]Nuclear Power is not clean or efficient.
Numerous resources are needed in the construction or a reactor and the mining or Uranium. Additional energy is required to run the cooling pumps in a reactor. Once a reactor is up and running, most of the potential energy is lost during distribution i.e. along power lines and transformers. Spent nuclear fuel has to be disposed of properly. Facilities like the Onkalo Spent Nuclear Fuel Repository won't be completed until around 2100, and will be consuming energy and resources until completion.[/QUOTE]
it's because the US uses Uranium because they want to build nuclear reactors while china is developing cleaner thorium reactors.
[QUOTE=carbonproxy;44201753]it's because the US uses Uranium because they want to build nuclear reactors while china is developing cleaner thorium reactors.[/QUOTE]
I read up on Thorium reactors and they are so much better than the Uranium and Plutonium reactors we use currently, with minute waste in comparison as well as being safer to decommission and a much, much smaller chance of meltdowns.

Man I love forums. In the end it just devolves into a shit slinging contest. Almost like a little war just for me.

Forums are meant for discussion hence the name. It's the people who turn it into a slinging contest. Not pointing fingers at anyone, just saying.

I think the issue is you've provided completely zero evidence for claims you are making. You aren't the first gasmask obsessed teenager to come onto facepunch talking about fighting in wars and shit and turning out to be a fraud. There was a big one a few years back even, where a guy pretended to be a veteran for years and then it turned out he was bullshitting.
you sound exactly like an edgy 16 year old trying to be ~controversial~. That's why people aren't taking you seriously bud

It's the closest you'll be getting to a war.
Civilization does not happen by accident.
I hope weed doesn't become legal nation wide.

Well I'm no veteran, and I am trying to be controversial, but the real kicker is I haven't told a full lie. Well, unless you count lying by omission. I don't want to be taken seriously, that's why I'm in this thread.
Really though, I'm totally excited for how my life is turning out and all the opportunities I have ahead of me. I am selfish and my only drive is personal wealth, whether monetary or otherwise. I do have all these job options in front of me if Ukraine erupts and therefore I'd love to see it. I'd relish the chance to have people like Bill Guarnere exist again. That cool old school glory. Feels like it's dying away.
Contrary to what a lot of pessimists like to think, human civilization is improving and we are becoming less violent.
