  1. "It's a beautiful thing, the Destruction of words. Of course the great wastage is in the verbs and adjectives, but there are hundreds of nouns that can be got rid of as well. It isn't only the synonyms; there are also the antonyms. After all, what justification is there for a word, which is simply the opposite of some other word? A word contains its opposite in itself. Take ‘good,’ for instance. If you have a word like ‘good,’ what need is there for a word like ‘bad’? ‘Ungood’ will do just as well – better, because it's an exact opposite, which the other is not. Or again, if you want a stronger version of ‘good,’ what sense is there in having a whole string of vague useless words like ‘excellent’ and ‘splendid’ and all the rest of them? ‘Plusgood’ covers the meaning or ‘doubleplusgood’ if you want something stronger still. Of course we use those forms already, but in the final version of Newspeak there'll be nothing else. In the end the whole notion of goodness and badness will be covered by only six words – in reality, only one word. Don't you see the beauty of that, Winston?"
  2. Koalas are shit tier, on a level of awful somewhere between Canada geese and humans.
  3. That has happened to Us exactly zero times. Your cousin probably isn't as good at hacking as he tells you he is.
  4. Indeed. And when it's not, We'll happily enjoy the lettuce, tomato, and other such fixings. Different leagues have different rules.
  5. Never drive again, mostly. We seem to remember at one point fairly early on Piccolo uses a technique where he splits himself into multiple copies, but never uses it again... An extra set of hands would be amazing for, like, chores and stuff.
  6. Killer atomically mutated carts.
  7. Who knows? The reasons that drive desperate people to do stupid things are vast and varied.

    There's potential. Seems closer to Mad Scientist than Evil Overlord, though. Probably nothing to worry about. Not until he shows an interest in eye protection for giant snakes, anyways.
  9. The forecast is sunny all week...
  10. We generally find Puffins to be quite charming. And though We don't view them as cute per se, We've always had an affinity for tigers.
  11. We don't get veggies on burgers at fast food joints for the same reason We don't shop in the produce section at Walmart. We'd prefer to not eat at fast food places at all, but We're not always afforded the time to be as big a snob as We'd like.
  12. After a string of existential crises, We have more or less decided to stop thinking of ourself as someone in particular. Although, We do have a bit of nostalgia for the various titles We've held over the years. But that's representative of a "what" more so than a "who."
  13. The Netherlands are so flat. Total disaster. Switzerland Second.
  14. Some people just have no respect for boundaries.
  15. 'Fraid not. If, however, you had any interest in fictional estate, then We'd have some tales to tell.
  16. - 1/2
  17. If that's what you want, sure. Go for it. Nothing screams validation quite like landing yourself in Gitmo.
  18. Of course they know about you. It's just, they don't care about you.
  19. We don't know what you're going on about.
  20. Puns are hard these days. We typically just mistake them for typos.
  21. Feelings are overrated. Granted, so is ambition.

    I'm da bomb

    Sounds totally sanitary.
  23. First off, take it as a compliment, regardless of intent. Secondly, how do they know what aliens look like?

    Why

    Why not? Besides, we've got like eight seasons worth of filler to get through before they'd start to be relevant.
