This thread would be better if 30% of the people posting in it weren't completely bugfuck insane.

    "Over the last few days here I’ve reached the conclusion that humans are not meant to form societies."


    Of course he has. I mean, why not? Why not come to that conclusion? You know what. Over the last few days, I'VE reached the conclusion that humans are not meant to wear pants. That's what's keeping us from achieving a pure pantisocracy. So, the choice is up to you. Did humanity fail by forming societies? Or by forming pants? I know what Chewbacca would say.


    Summary (that means tl:dr): I do not agree with the original poster of the other thread.

    BaronGrackle, I accuse you of being in collusion with the Strike Witches!

    ^ ? ? ? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .TO THE WIKI! (goes to the wiki...)


    "Strike Witches (ストライクウィッチーズ, Sutoraiku Witchīzu?) is a mixed-media project originally created by Humikane Shimada via a series of magazine illustration columns. It was later adapted into two light novel series, three manga series, an anime OVA, a televised anime series and various video games. The story revolves around teenage girls who are essentially moe anthropomorphizations of military airplanes..."

    You are, way off base. Completely off my genre. More Western. Less airplaney. Try the Shi'ar instead. Now that's a society worth belonging to. Yes, we form societies, but we all secretly wish we were in more awesome societies. Yeah.

    One guy actually said he'd rather be in a communal group living off the land with only stone technology than in modern society. I find that extremely difficult to believe coming from someone posting on an internet forum.

    I'd find that hard to believe from someone who uses a toilet.

    ^^ You make a compelling point. Plus, it's still a society! :)

    ^^Well, yeah, but once you've reached the point of using modern technology to join an online community, it's so absurd a statement it becomes hilarious.

    @BaronGrackle: That's because they're waging a war against pants.

    Back the fuck up.

    When did tnu start using spellcheck?

    ^^^ Is it weird if I find Funimation's advertising of Strike Witches to be more embarrassing than the show itself?

    No, since my whole schtick about opposing the Strike Witches in their war on pants comes from Funimation's ads.
