Ooooh, Central Park in the fall!

I think I'll have to come up with some brilliant idea, make lots of money really fast and then get a place at TDA, then Central Park should be right across the road and I can just walk there.

Tiny genius

Damn, yeah, wish I could go.

Tiny genius

Sweet! I can't read a lot of it but it seems good. I'm guessing the Leguminote on the end of Bean's and Petra's kids is Randal Firth/Achilles II but who've you got him as? It's a little blurry.

Tiny genius

There is something in that. Bean does ruminate on his own lack of remorse though and arrives at the conclusion that he's just not as empathic as Ender so he can't feel guilty about killing a race he didn't know except as vicious murderers. He is perceptive, but the only input he had was knowledge th...

Tiny genius

I wasn't trying in any way to argue against you without addressing main points when I asked you not to call Bean's mind "synthesized". In fact that type of specious argumentative style gets on my nerves so much I'd never dream of engaging in it deliberately myself. You did only refer to Be...

Tiny genius

Brilliant work, if you'd done your Googling more thouroughly you would've been too busy dying to post this.

Tiny genius

While waiting for the new stuff I've taken to watching DW repeats on Iview, not owning many DW DVDs (can't think why this is the case) but I don't see how he Doctor's Wife redeems series 6, I mean, it's a great episode but the whole lot? My favourite episodes include School Reunion , The Empty Child...

"Most leading theologians claim that this argument is a load of dingo's kidneys..."

That's funny and I admire the logic that due to the type of being people believe God is, once someone has dreamed him up, he has to exist of necessity.

Good work, now prove that black is white!

Tiny genius

Yeah, sorry about that. Three reasons, though: 1. Some people in Club Philote seemed curious/confused about it. 2. You were the one who started making lesbian jokes. 3. I'd just come from Facebook where half the people I talk to seem to be obsessed with nothing but that stuff, my mind was still in t...

Tiny genius

When you read the book did you have that "oh..., I remember this one '? I know I did when I first read H2G2 and recognised some stuff that my older brother had told me about it when I was really young and didn't get half of it. As for not kicking while the enemy is down, I've taken a few cheap ...

Tiny genius

I can't be a lesbian, I thought I'd already confirmed my gender in the "Who could you play?" thread or I'd never hear the end of it. I had it pointed out to me by Jason that with all the other info I'd supposedly given, I might as well tell you I'm male, but not my name. And if you are won...

Tiny genius

Darth Ender, I do wish you'd stop refering to Bean's intelligence as 'synthesised' or the like. It seems like a petty attempt to devalue Bean's intellect. Yes his mind's behaviour was caused by genetic manipulation but none-the-less it is Bean's mind and it interacts with his emotional side just lik...

Tiny genius

Oh, eh. Maybe. Thanks.

Tiny genius

Mmm... who did? I think if I get a crush on anything of the kind it'll have to be either an AI or an AAI. I reckon if Siri's voice were applied to Cleverbot and Cleverbot took on Siri's name I could... maybe.

Tiny genius

What the smeg's all this about a lesbian love affair?

Tiny genius

I think everyone's got some kind of fictional character crush(es) and some would be a lot wierder than app characters. My own include Bean, Captain Jack (the DW one, not Pirates of the Carribian) and some others. As for zombie apocalypse survival. My buiding of choice would be the school gym/auditor...

Tiny genius

Damn. I'm not going to start a picasa or flikr account just to get a poster that isn't half as good as the ones already here up. And what do you mean "in most cases"? What else could I do? (edit) Here's an idea, I'll describe it to you instead! That's how I get most TV shows and pictures n...

Tiny genius

Hey, I just did this one now. Since my eyes can't handle anything other than MS Paint too well, that's the only thing I use so sorry for the artwork drawbacks. Oh well, I liked the idea of prop posters for the IF so here's mine.

(edit) Actually, that didn't come out, how do I put an image in here?

Tiny genius

Eh, looks good... Why the phi in the IF emblem though?

Tiny genius

I guess. It is a shame though. I came here by accident and stayed yes because it was EG fans who I can never find in meatspace but because I like the people, as new as I am I am getting to know them. You have a point but it just seems like a waste of a good site to have new people turn up and turn a...

Tiny genius

Fair enough point I guess. Why should so many posters become inactive so as to quarter the posting rate though? I've noticed many new people registering lately, even since I've arrived. And quite a few would be in high school or college, I'd've thought... Just my opinion but... oh well.

Tiny genius

That seems... odd. Surely statistically we'd get there faster because we'd have more users the longer the site existed for.

Tiny genius

I'm in the dark here. What's this about?

Tiny genius

Something I don't understand is how my brother can get so worked up and even, at times, cry if someone makes a even a jockular insult at him but then goes around wantenly calling everybody else doosh-bags and idiots every other minute. Even when I pointed this out to him he just said "sorry&quo...

Tiny genius

I would be content as an extra at TS. A more main role though I think I could play Carn and not just because of the age and the accent. I think his personality and mine would mesh pretty well.

(And since people are so concerned, yes, this resolves the issue of my gender).

Tiny genius

This is a morally unsettling question. Save all humankind or steal a child's life for their childhood is gone and the lack of it affects them forever, as we saw with Ender. But I think that even though I would too be sickened, I'd do it to save the human race. To steal a few children's lives is one ...

Tiny genius

BUGGER! How could I forget that?!

I love The Matrix...
How did I forget the name of the actress for Trinity?

Damn.

Tiny genius

I fear I'm missing something here and I can't just Google it because I'm operating on a restricted terminal. What is the joke?

Tiny genius

Just sayin' back... It doesn't matter what I say because anything could be a lie. I mayn't be using my own computer right now or when I created my account. Nothing's certain online and in real life nothing makes sense unless you want it to. Like the inexplicable feeling you get that someone is watch...

Tiny genius

What?

Tiny genius

I understand wanting to maintain anonymity, but it does seem odd that you've reveled your age and home country, but draw the line at gender. That does suggest that you place some special importance on it. I'm not trying to make you admit or deny that that's true so feel free not to comment, but tha...

Tiny genius

I'll have to re-read SP again because I seem to have forgotten its emptiness. But I found the whole Shadow series enjoyable and read it more than the Speaker Trilogy because I seem to get through it more easily. The Speaker Trilogy is great but is a little harder to keep re-reading than the Shadow b...

Tiny genius

I had the same idea about Volescu. In fact, when I first came here I set up a thread "Volesku and the Descoladores". (I didn't know how to spell Volescu at that point). It was to discuss that very possibility and with the same reasons, Volescu was sent into space to do gene research. And n...

Groundhog day moment! November 23rd is TARDIS day, the anniversary of the airing of the first episode of Doctor Who. Also, every Wednesday is Chainsaw Day. You steal people's stuff and claim that they gave it to you as a Chainsaw gift. Note: Chainsaw Day celebrations and festivities continue for the...

Tiny genius

"It" is fine by me. I won't give a preference and I was only wondering at the consistency of people's guessing at my gender. I'll not make comments when any gender-specific pronoun is used. Bear in mind I didn't intend the ambiguity, it's a side-product of intentional anonymity. Refer to m...
