Day 111 - Mr. Gray Merely Lacks The Island from Day 110, Smart Or Stupid Doesn't Matter Against 'In Charge', Much Cooler Than Mr. Chick-Hose, Mr. Mustard On The Butcher Block?, Testes Lead To The Dark Side, Baseball Burqa, And 'This Is Not Who I Am This Is Not Okay This Is Not Necessarily My Picture Either'

Mr. Blue

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutiny_on_the_Bounty 

Interesting tale.

10:07 AM Mr. Silver

Mr. Gray is related to Fletcher Christian

10:07 AM Mr. Blue

Sweet

10:08 AM Mr. Silver

He's got that “defy authority, drink a lot, hit on native chicks” factor.

10:10 AM Mr. Blue

Heheh

(A fair amount of time after I was ranting about a stupid policy but fell out of the conversation. - Mr. Silver)

2:32 Mr. Silver

Miss much?

2:32 PM Mr. Gray

Mr. Yellow and I were talking about things being dumbed down for stupid people.

2:32 PM Mr. Silver

It's all well and good to put down stupid people, but I was putting down smart ones...

2:32 PM Mr. Gray

LOL

2:36 PM Mr. Silver

As much as I bash the dim bulbs of the world, the fact is that there have always been dim bulbs, and when they were illiterate they were even dimmer.

2:38 PM Mr. Gray

They need to stay illiterate and subservient.  We’d be better off with a stupid mindless labor force

2:50 PM Mr. Silver

Well...the problems of a society like that aren't inconsiderable.

Silver Jr. pondered yesterday that everyone who goes to jail goes for a good reason, right?  I had to say no.

Considering history, if you aren't way at the top, the top can do whatever they want to you.

2:53 PM Mr. Gray

Yep

3:13 PM Mr. Silver

Reporter's name is CICHOSZ.  Pronounced "psychos". 

3:16 PM Mr. Gray

LMAO

3:17 PM Mr. Silver

"I can check that information for you...and may I just say how completely cool you are, Mr. Psychos?"

Mr. Gray

Mr. Mustard is a friggin waste of space.   He should be gassed and put out of my misery.

9:18 AM Mr. Yellow

LOL

9:18 AM Mr. Gray

I don’t care how friggin "Nice" he is.

9:27 AM Mr. Silver

I’m not sure who I’d talk cannibalism with if he left, though.

9:40 AM Mr. Gray

Me!

 

Mr. Green

Yep.  Caring leads to pain.... I should have T-shirts made... "Care less... it's good for the soul."

9:42 AM Mr. Gray

Agree!

9:43 AM Mr. Silver

“Caring leads to Pain”...sounds like a rejected Jedi principle.

9:46 AM Mr. Gray

That should be in the Sith code.

9:47 AM Mr. Green

And pain leads to fear... and fear leads to the dark side…

So it should be Jedi principle.  Caring is what screwed Anakin.

That's why Jedi are not supposed to get married or fall in love; just breed once in a while to pass on genes "strong with the Force".

9:50 AM Mr. Gray

It’s why they say "No attachments".   So a Jedi shouldn’t care about anyone. LOL

9:52 AM Mr. Green

Vulcans would make the ultimate Jedi.

9:52 AM Mr. Gray

Yep.

9:54 AM Mr. Silver

Yet Jedi aren't "snipped" to just dump the whole issue.

9:55 AM Mr. Green

Well, castration doesn’t necessarily prevent caring... just lowers the lust factor.

9:58 AM Mr. Silver

Right...caring is good...it’s romance that is bad to them.

All that lusty-ragey stuff can be "fixed" early.  The Jedi would all sing in nice soprano registers too.

10:00 AM Mr. Yellow

I think once you were snipped, you could care about a lot less.

10:05 AM Mr. Green

Probably true.

10:07 AM Mr. Yellow

It would allow you to focus on your Jedi training; less distractions.

 

10:07 AM Mr. Brown

Sweet http://imgur.com/gallery/wjSeB

10:09 AM Mr. Silver

Before drinking that combo, I'd need a shot first.

11:05 AM Mr. Blue

http://www.cnn.com/ "Yemeni women burn veils in protest"

BUT YOU'RE STILL WEARING VEILS

11:09 AM Mr. Silver

I like the baseball hats

11:15 AM Mr. Blue

I’m not really clear on Sharia Law… maybe The Koran has some provisions for America's greatest past time.

12:57 PM Mr. Blue

http://www.cnn.com/2011/10/26/living/halloween-ethnic-costumes/index.html?hpt=us_t4

People need to get over themselves.

1:00 PM Mr. Silver

Agreed...I wondered what that was about but hadn't really looked. 

1:01 PM Mr. Blue

#1 isn't an "Arab" costume, it's a terrorist costume.

I don't get bent out of shape when someone dresses like a German, even a Nazi, on Halloween.

Do nurses get upset when girls dress up like sexy nurses?

1:06 PM Mr. Silver

#3, she doesn't look anything like a male vampire...inexcusable.

1:07 PM Mr. Blue

lol

1:11 PM Mr. Blue

What is #2?

Are they dressed as barbarians?

Native Americans?

That guy is certainly not Native American; he has curly hair.

1:21 PM Mr. Silver

I can't read the sign, so I can't tell.

Not full blooded N.A., no.  And there's the facial hair, too.

Maybe #1 and #2 are holding up each others picture.

1:42 PM Mr. Blue

I think the ad campaign just racist-ly picked random people with dark skin tones and assigned them an ethnicity at random.

1:47 PM Mr. Silver

I should take a picture of myself, frowning, holding a picture of the guy dressed as Edward Cullen.

"This is not who I am and this is not okay"

"Side note: vampires don't sparkle either"

Or perhaps a picture of Michael Meyers or Jason Voorhees.

2:27 PM Mr. Blue

lol

Or a guy dressed as Jack Sparrow

Here we go:

Day 110 - If You Were A Woman Trapped On A Desert Island Which Of Us Would You Take?, And Even Extremist Republicans Don't Like Republicans

7:14 AM Mr. Brown

http://imgur.com/gallery/EVPp9

What would you choose?

7:21 AM Mr. Silver

This island thing is rather a puzzle.

An 8 year reduction is tempting in C, but the rest of the stuff I find useless.

7:22 AM Mr. Brown

Yeah. I would probably rely on my skills to fashion weapons and take B.

7:23 AM Mr. Silver

Having a freezer would be a huge advantage.

Also the gun will be a "telescope" in 2 years or so.

7:24 AM Mr. Brown

The knives would have to be attached to a stick to be worth anything, other than making more pointy sticks. You can always find sharp enough rocks.

7:24 AM Mr. Silver

The plain girl's lesbian disinterest in A will last about 3 months, plus she's skilled.

And you come out with $5 million each.

7:27 AM Mr. Silver

The 300 rounds of ammunition would go towards the vicious wild animals instead of food, so there would not be much of an issue with them.

7:27 AM Mr. Brown

And you can not rely on the dogs not turning on you.

7:35 AM Mr. Silver

I gotta go with A

10:16 AM Mr. Silver

So...today's game was:

http://imgur.com/gallery/EVPp9

What would you choose?

10:20 AM Mr. Blue

B

10:21 AM Mr. Silver

Took me a while to decide, but I took A

10:23 AM Mr. Blue

That's fine too. Definitely not C.

I can't put my penis into a rottweiler or an acoustic guitar.

10:23 AM Mr. Silver

Well...you could...

10:23 AM Mr. Brown

I choose B also.

10:24 AM Mr. Blue

And with A, I assume the lesbians will appease their own needs and leave me stranded.

10:24 AM Mr. Silver

Hehe!

10:24 AM Mr. Brown

Until the one dies...

10:24 AM Mr. Blue

And if one of them is plain now, imagine how fugly she'll be after a year or two on a deserted island.

10:25 AM Mr. Silver

I know I wouldn't care after not too long if it's my only sentient companion.

7:38 AM Mr. Green

C... and I wouldn’t bother with the rescue after 20 years... lol!

7:39 AM Mr. Silver

Well...12. I went with A

3 peeps to set up, 2 to live, one skilled. $5 mill each. 300 rounds to take care of the predators in a few months and a bar.

Plain lesbian or not, she'd get "lonely" in a couple months.

7:41 AM Mr. Green

Yeah, that was my second choice.

7:44 AM Mr. Green

At this point, I think I rather have the dogs than women for company...

7:46 AM Mr. Silver

Oddly enough, if you considered eating the dogs right away, you'd have "food" rations for 10 years.

Like Alpo much?

7:47 AM Mr. Green

I get hungry enough, I'll eat anything.

7:47 AM Mr. Silver

Well, with 3 tons of pot handy, you'll probably get the munchies for some kibble.

7:48 AM Mr. Green

I figure the dogs will be more useful hunting/flushing out game than if you ate them, and a loyal rottweiler will fight anything for you...bear, panther...it might not win, but it would have your back. Unlike a woman.

7:50 AM Mr. Silver

A loyal hunting rifle only eats a bullet at a time, on the other hand.

7:50 AM Mr. Green

If you're any good with it...

7:51 AM Mr. Silver

I said to Mr. Brown that it'll be a 'telescope' in a year or two, but the beasts will be a non-issue.

7:52 AM Mr. Green

I think I'd prefer the knives and make spears... A more personal kind of kill... you'd feel like you earned the right to live every day that way. Survival of the fittest kind of thing, instead survival by firepower. Besides, your bullets would get wet the first rainy season... kind of screwed then. The knife never runs out of ammo.

7:53 AM Mr. Silver

Oh I could pack up ammo.  And I shoot fairly well.

Funny thing is, according to the terms of the game, you live regardless of whatever you pick.

Which is a big reason I picked the money as an ace.

7:57 AM Mr. Green

Well, it doesn’t say you live, just you'll be rescued in 20 years. I still think you have to survive that long.

7:57 AM Mr. Silver

Fun exercise

8:10 AM Mr. Silver

Morning Mr. Gray.

8:44 AM Mr. Silver

Here...this AM's game: (Link)

what would you choose?

8:51 AM Mr. Gray

Wow...that's a tough choice. I'm down to B or C. LOL

8:54 AM Mr. Silver

Heh

Took me a while to pick. I went with A.

8:58 AM Mr. Gray

I'm torn between B and C! LOL! I cant decide!!

9:42 AM Mr. Silver

Today's game, Mr. Yellow. (Link)

9:46 AM Mr. Yellow

Ok. Group 1, B. Group 2, A. Group 3, C. Group 4, B

9:47 AM Mr. Gray

*confused*

9:47 AM Mr. Silver

Yeah...it says pick one group.

A B or C, sir

9:47 AM Mr. Yellow

Oh. Then C

9:48 AM Mr. Silver

Mr. Gray still hasn't picked.

9:49 AM Mr. Yellow

Hot chick is the selling point of B, but she would eventually get annoying. And I do not need a freezer if there is a lot of game on the island. I can dry and smoke the meat.

I would strap the knife to a pole to have a spear.

9:50 AM Mr. Yellow

And I would eat meat, pet the dogs while strumming the guitar, and smoke weed for 12 years.

9:51 AM Mr. Gray

I told you....I'm torn between B and C

B...you have the hot chick, which is definitely a selling point, but even solar powered the MP3 player could die, and who is gonna fix it?

Plus I'm too old to wait 20 years and not have some fun...so that makes it tough.

C has more positive points...it just lacks the "getting laid" factor LOL!

9:52 AM Mr. Yellow

You have two hands.

And seriously, the chick would get annoying. She is hot, so I doubt she can do any useful but have sex. So you'd have to do everything.

9:52 AM Mr. Gray

The dogs wouldn’t live more than 10 years...and both are male, so no more pups.

9:52 AM Mr. Yellow

Well they could make it 12.

9:52 AM Mr. Gray

Possibly.

9:53 AM Mr. Yellow

You stretch the dog food out with meat.

9:53 AM Mr. Gray

C does have those points.

But we're still talking 12 years... Man. that would be rough LOL

9:53 AM Mr. Yellow

Nothing is more useful on an island then a K Bar for building shelter.

9:53 AM Mr. Gray

Truthfully, the more I think about it...other than the chick, B kinda sucks.

9:54 AM Mr. Yellow

Yes.

I would go C, hands down.

9:54 AM Mr. Gray

A is more appealing...other than the lesbian with the crappy personality. I'd likely shoot her. LOL

Yeah...gonna have to say C.

9:54 AM Mr. Silver

In the end, I was all about A

9:54 AM Mr. Gray

A does have a lot of good points......

The cash when you get out would be nice.

9:55 AM Mr. Yellow

And yes, they are lesbians, so you are not going to do more than watch and after 3 years you will have to deal with the plain one with the shitty attitude.

9:57 AM Mr. Green

I went with C. I'd rather be woman-free...

9:59 AM Mr. Green

Women are always more of a hindrance to actual survival than a help.

9:59 AM Mr. Yellow

If I was 20 I might choose A.

10:00 AM Mr. Gray

LMAO

10:00 AM Mr. Silver

Well, survival hindrance was why I left out the babe in B.

10:03 AM Mr. Silver

In A you have a gun for the vicious beasts, 3 pairs of hands to set up and do stuff, and the surviving lesbian is good at contributing food.

10:10 AM Mr. Silver

Regardless of looks or personality, in 20 years you'll want someone to talk to and natural loneliness is going to render any sexual orientation issue pretty pointless, especially with 15 years of hooch handy...

And finally, you earn $5 million each.

10:13 AM Mr. Silver

20 years of adventure in a relative paradise, and you retire rich.

10:27 AM Mr. Yellow

Who says the other lesbian will still be alive after 20 years?

10:28 AM Mr. Silver

Hehe...then you retire with $10 million.

11:46 AM Mr. Silver

“Perry strikes with a brilliant new tax plan! (for rich people)”

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/10/25/perry-to-propose-20-optional-flat-tax/?hpt=hp_t2

12:01 PM Mr. Silver

The analysis by the CNN guest was great: "Well, since choosing flat also cancels all your gains taxes and such, everyone with money will, of course, choose the 20%.  They'll all be paying a lot less tax all of sudden and the country will have even less income, and even more services will go away.  So this will appeal only to the far right and all the left will object strongly."  

12:03 PM Mr. Apple

That idea is a joke! lol

12:29 PM Mr. Blue

I liked this comment:

“I don't even pretend to fully understand this, but if it is coming from Rick Perry....I know its a bad idea.”

Sums up my opinion.

12:31 PM Mr. Silver

Well, there's not actually anything wrong with verified accurate prejudice.

1:02 PM Mr. Silver

LOL!

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2011/10/25/pat-robertson-the-republican-base-is-too-extreme-right-now/

Not quite the level of Genghis Khan pleading with people to get along, but still funny.

1:03 PM Mr. Gray

Robertson? Oh this should be good...

LOL

Yeah, when your extreme individuals think the party is too extreme...that is a bad sign LOL!

He is kind of right though - the Tea Party are a small minority in the Republican party, yet the candidates keep playing to them and their extreme views...and are losing the more flexible members of the party who say "What the F?!"

It's no wonder they won't win.

"I agree with you!! Oh wait....you couple guys over here don’t think that’s good? Ok then I agree with YOU!! Oh wait, now the blacks are all ticked? Umm...Ok I agree with YOU!! Damn now the women are all mad? Ok Ok...I agree with YOU!!"

And they wonder why people say they flip flop.

7:45 AM Mr. Mustard

Sounds like good reading for the Long Pork fans

"Death is the ultimate take-down," says Mary Roach, author of "Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers."

7:46 AM Mr. Silver

You misread it, sir...you were looking for "Death Is The Ultimate Take-Out"

7:46 AM Mr. Mustard

Either way

7:47 AM Mr. Silver

"Delivery Orders At Least $15"

7:47 AM Mr. Mustard

No doubt

7:45 AM Mr. Brown

I found something yesterday that is saying that Lucifer and Satan are two different beings

in the writings.

7:45 AM Mr. Silver

Yes.

7:45 AM Mr. Brown

One is the original sinner that was put in hell to watch over it.

The other lead the revolt.

7:47 AM Mr. Silver

Satan was merely a tester.

That was his job in the old testament.

Lucifer revolted.

7:48 AM Mr. Brown

Yet people put the name together as one.

7:50 AM Mr. Silver

A lot of Post-Bible Demonology is just old gods and whole cloth BS, you know.

"Hmm...I need a Hebrew sounding name for a devil, so I'll stick -rael at the end of...oh...Bliz.  Blizrael.  Yeah!  I'll stick him in a sermon!" 

"Isis" is a devil according to those goofs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isis  Feast your eyes on all her evil powers...

7:53 AM Mr. Brown

Well, I think that a lot of Egyptian gods had both sides - good and evil.

7:54 AM Mr. Silver

Isis was as good as they got.

7:56 AM Mr. Silver

Apart from her being an Egyptian goddess, they may have latched on because she was a she, and everyone knows women are vile sin-pots.

"Hmm...What about Isis?"

"Devil."

"Yeah but she's great...look at her list...she loves and cares for everyone."

"Female."

"True...(scribes under 'Devil')"

7:58 AM Mr. Brown

She makes us think she is helping us by doing all that good!

lol

Devil!

7:59 AM Mr. Silver

Ishtar I can see on the list.  Isis, no

8:02 AM Mr. Silver

This is what the goddess of Sex and War has to say when she doesn't get her way:

“If thou openest not the gate to let me enter,
I will break the door, I will wrench the lock,
I will smash the door-posts, I will force the doors.
I will bring up the dead to eat the living.
And the dead will outnumber the living.”

8:02 AM Mr. Brown

Lots of fun.

lol

“OK, OK! I will do it with you, lady! Are you PMSing or something ?”

8:03 AM Mr. Silver

"Worship me!  NOW!"

"I don't think we should see each other anymore..."

Yeah, she had a sleeping-around problem, and people dissed her on it.

8:04 AM Mr. Brown

Original slut

lol

8:05 AM Mr. Silver

"You want to date me?  I see...let's review how you handled your last dozen lovers, shall we, Ishtar?"

8:13 AM Mr. Brown

I was watching something the other day about how the moon came from earth,

and we were going to the moon to study this in the first place, but then we never went back.

8:14 AM Mr. Silver

I'm not sure what they were honestly expecting to gain from a scientific knowledge perspective. Engineering it was a huge deal though.

8:21 AM Mr. Brown

I love the excuses people try to come up with for us not actually going to the moon. To me, everybody coming up with these theories did not do enough work to prove their ideas.

8:22 AM Mr. Silver

It didn't help that the USSR faked a mission.

8:22 AM Mr. Brown

Yeah?

9:29 AM Mr. Silver

It was mentioned on that "Dark Matters" show.  A publicized mission of orbiting the moon involved launching out a radio repeater to fake the location of the "cosmonaut" transmissions.  No one was in space.

9:45 AM Mr. Brown

We have moved on to sending people to their death on Mars.

lol

9:55 AM Mr. Silver

Depending who goes...I don't mind.

10:01 AM Mr. Silver

I read a lot of the comic strip "Pogo" in my youth, and they had recurring bad-science goofs in it.  They would talk about the space race occasionally, and the one character, a mouse, was all excited at the prospect of men being launched into space.

"Whoosh!  Up it goes!  Whoosh!  Two!  Whoosh!  Three!  Four! Five! Whoosh!"

"Exciting, yes, but how are we going to get them all back?"

(Mouse looks confused) "Get them back?" 

2:00 PM Mr. Brown

This is funny http://imgur.com/gallery/AJ2i4

2:21 PM Mr. Apple

Haha!

2:53 PM Mr. Silver

Everyone needs a hobby.

2:54 PM Mr. Apple

At work or home?

2:54 PM Mr. Silver

Hehe

The guy taking the picture is wearing a bag saying "My wife will kill me when she finds out how much I spent on Pokemon cards."

2:56 PM Mr. Apple

lol

3:10 PM Mr. Silver

http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2011/10/b53-dismantled/

Note the cardboard, red duct tape, and the guys that look as military as me.

3:13 PM Mr. Gray

LOL

It does look like a fake.

3:13 PM Mr. Silver

"Yeah, the Air Force asked if they could use the spare shed in '74, and I had to clean out some old lawnmower stuff, but she fit right in there."

3:16 PM Mr. Apple

Haha!

10:34 AM Mr. Gray

So we'll figure on a monthly D&D game at 12th lvl, on Sundays.

LOL. Ned's character is gonna hate us. Add Master Peng to that.....Oh God LOL

10:38 AM Mr. Yellow

Why would Ned hate us? I have an Illusionist and will talk about how belief makes things real.

10:39 AM Mr. Gray

Ned's is an Assassin....Pure Neutral. I'm a Paladin.  Peng is a pacifist.  I just think we'll drive him a bit nuts.

Should be fun!

10:40 AM Mr. Silver

Peng's not on the pure "Old Master" path yet, but has mostly withdrawn from the "killing stuff" part of his career.

10:40 AM Mr. Gray

Which will be even funnier since Peng is going to be our main fighter LOL!

10:40 AM Mr. Silver

A Taoist will get along with an illusionist, lawful, and true neutral just fine...he's a Taoist.

10:41 AM Mr. Gray

"What do you mean our fighter is a pacifist?! I'm a friggin ASSASSIN!!"

10:41 AM Mr. Silver

The main conflict will be Peng smacking things silly with non-lethal damage, just to have the assassin coup de gras them.

10:42 AM Mr. Gray

LOL

Good point

10:42 AM Mr. Silver

"(sigh) You just don't understand...ah well...you'll learn one day. And if you don't...well that's alright too."

10:44 AM Mr. Gray

LOL

10:46 AM Mr. Yellow

I think I am going to make my wizard an entertainer as well.  It lulls people into a false sense as to his actual power. I am thinking about a stage show right now LOL!

10:50 AM Mr. Silver

"I will now pull a rabbit out of this gentleman's hat." 

"He doesn't have a hat."

"And I don't have a rabbit, but warning him that the trick is to pull his heart out of his throat is kind of a giveaway." 

10:51 AM Mr. Gray

LMAO

11:55 AM Mr. Silver

Master Peng is a Non-Killing machine.

Still at level 10, with his monk's Flurry of Blows, 3 attacks a round for 3d12+6 each, and I have 2 levels to add.

Glad he's just slapping people instead of breaking them.

11:58 AM Mr. Gray

Nice

11:58 AM Mr. Silver

"(slap slap slap!)  Please stay down.  I do not like striking you because I think you are just misunderstood, and staying down would prove you are wise."

12:00 PM Mr. Green

LOL
