richlind33: You resist temptation, when you accept that it is a distraction.

GameRager: It is funny though, and civil.

KiNgBrAdLeY7: Actually, you resist temptation, after you meet it, get to know it inside out, "reverse-engineer" it of sorts and "master"/"conquer" it; by developing its complete opposite/antidote/countermeasure. Much like how the correspondence between sin and virtue goes. And the archetype of yin and yang. You cannot hope to repent, if you haven't sinned first. And the worst "sinners" of all, all the forcibly-made abstainers.

GameRager: TBH i'd rather be a sinner than a saint...sinners have more fun as the song goes.

Also giving into temptation can be devilish good fun sometimes.

slamdunk: I know the feeling. I lost several collections of stuff in a disaster. After the shock wore off, which took some great deal of time, eventually I grew more and more at peace with this life event. Possessions are ultimately just transitory things but nothing will replace the emotions you got out of the magazines at the time.

You might find yourself saying "Oh, I should have done this or that to prevent them from being destroyed." but as they say, hindsight is always 20/20. It might not even be hindsight at all. Maybe there was nothing you could do to prevent this from happening. Ultimately, this is not your fault because pointless bad shit happens all the time without reason or purpose.

One day all of your things will be decayed and rotten, and some day after that Planet Earth itself might possibly die, but you as of today are alive, and you're able to remember the joy and the engagement reading those magazines brought you.

You'll be OK, friend. This too shall pass.

KiNgBrAdLeY7: You know something? There are real "SAINTS" among the "sinners"... And sometimes, having fun, might lead you into serious, unexpected, fateful encounters...

The only bad sin, is the type of sin that harms others. There are sins that borderline work miracles and are even beneficial for people, really...

GameRager: How many were your dad's stash, I wonder?

BTW good idea for a thread....although the bitch about life in general thread owner's might be upset at you butting into their turf. o.0GameRager: Is there ANYTHING they aren't or don't become immune to? They are nigh unkillable(well beyond stepping on them I suppose).GameRager: Ghetto crime would skyrocket then.

My bad...I kid.

The hunters would be upset then, I guess.GameRager: This thread was MADE for you(not literally but in it's topic), bud. Enjoy. :)GameRager: It is funny though, and civil.

Tauto: Sometimes, the things you say are strange. The OP is upset and the troll puts the boot in,''yeah that funny''. Unbelievable.

DadJoke007: Authoritarianism and that 1984 is coming closer each day.

GameRager: Mostly under the guise of some pushing it as equality/tolerance/whatever PC buzzword they can get ahold of to make it more palatable.

DadJoke007: I don't wanna turn this into politics like many other threads, but I see every side there is pushing for their flavor of authoritarianism. They want their guy to enforce their morals onto others, and I don't want any part of it.

That's the part that makes me 'sad', everyone is screaming for more authoritarianism, everyone just wants their flavor of it forced upon others but cry out loud when they're at the receiving end.

I'll leave it at that, just wanted to make it clear that I didn't dog whistle and point my finger in any specific direction.

GameRager: If someone(even someone I dislike or other dislike) does something funny/good/etc I give them praise for it, not just because it is the right thing to do but the gentlemanly thing to do.

On the flip side, if someone I like or my friends like does something bad/uncalled for I call them on it even if we're friends.

This is just how I am, as a rational human being who tries not to jump to emotional responses & gives everyone a fair shot.

If you dislike me for doing this I apologize if I bothered you but I don't side with/against a person 100% of the time for the most part. I judge each action a person does over time and gauge each accordingly by my other morals/beliefs.
