So my first post of 2011, coming after my first concert of 2011, which I'm really hoping wasn't Chuck Berry's last...

Lyric dump:

We have created a world where

honesty is not a virtue

we all lie to each other

simply for appearance sake

we don't say what we mean and

we don't say what is true and

we just say what sounds nice and

that makes everything fake

Built on nothing but false pretense

just a cloak of advertisement

our hollow statements echo

on ears which do not care

don't care there is no meaning

don't care that it's not genuine

all they care is that it's pleasing

even if it's all so fake

Everything I've ever done

Everything I'll ever do

is fake

is fake

Everything I see on TV

Everything that's shown to me

is fake

is fake

You will never find real answers

the truth is not for sale

all you will ever be told is

just what you want to hear

hear about it on the news and

hear about it from your friends and

hear about it from the world but

don't you know that it's all fake?

Packaged up for your consumption

wrapped up in pretty paper

it looks absolutely great but

there's just bull-- inside

just bull-- about politics

just bull-- about products

just bull-- about relationships

all bull-- and all so fake!

Everything I've ever done

Everything I'll ever do

is fake

is fake

Everything I see on TV

Everything that's shown to me

is fake

is fake

Everything they ever tell me

Everything I ever hear

is fake

is fake

Everything that I've been promised

Everything that I can list

is fake

is fake!

There is nothing   

nothing real in this world

I desperately search for meaning   

but the meaning...

the meaning...   

is fake

is fake

Everything I've ever done

Everything I'll ever do

is fake

is fake

Everything I see on TV

Everything that's shown to me

is fake

is fake

Everything they ever tell me

Everything I ever hear

is fake

is fake

Everything that I've been promised

Everything that I can list

is fake

is fake

is fake

is fake

The news?

fake

The movies?

fake

My friends?

fake

My enemies?

fake

The past?

fake

The future?

fake

All hope?

fake

This song?

fake

wow, what negative words, duke... everyting fake.

Last day of break...

And Duke, I think that's the second longest post in the whole of the two threads,1st being astro's Raven post. (I don't know the hard stats, just that his was longer )

[astronelson 339]

I find ABC (Australian, not American) and SBS to generally be quite accurate in their reporting. I prefer the ABC as they are forbidden from showing advertisements. Movies and many things on TV are generally supposed to be fake, as most of them are fiction.

And possible paradox spotted in the last two lines - if that song is fake, does that mean everything is real? Incliuding, then, the last two lines? Of course, "fake" is not the same as "false"...

Anywho, enough nitpicking from me. It's probably not a song likely to feature in any of my music collections. I prefer somewhat less depressing fare, like the following.

1447 - There isnt really a need for long posts..

Meh. I suppose most people won't appreciate it. That is, after all, the issue: not only is everything fake, but nobody notices or cares...

I suspect you may be right, but I don't have a means of checking.

Well, at least over here in the US, "accurate reporting" is contradiction in terms.

You're reading too much into that bit.

I guarantee you that it's not in anybody's music collection, seing as it has never been recorded or even performed, and was only just written last night.

So the Deseret Chemical Depot in Tooele, Utah, "has already destroyed more than 10,000 pounds of chemical weapons and is currently planning to complete destruction by 2011"

Anyone else have a problem with that, we should be creating more chemical weapons not destroying them.

[astronelson 339]

1451

Er... I'm sure your logic is impeccable in your mind, but why should we be creating more chemical weapons? Their use does violate the Chemical Weapons Convention, which the US are signatories to and have ratified.

These aren't explosives. Chemical weapons are stuff like cyanide and mustard gas. Explosives come under conventional weapons. Those aren't banned. Yet.

[Duke87 1,070]

(1452)

...I'm not touching this one.

[Skimbo 304]

@astro: if you dream of a future of U.S. not produceing conventional weapons, than please, dream along.

1453

[Larks2242 251]

1454.

@ Astro

I don't care about the Chemical Weapons Convention, we don't need to tell everyone what we are storing the government isn't 100% open anyways, for everyone weapon that is destroyed terrorists make 4 that really is safe isn't it? Well I don't think so, peace is never the answer they don't understand that.

Guess, its time to go diving for an M55 filled with VX.

But he is doing a barrel roll.

A barrel roll?

[Ocram's Razr 964]

Chemical weapons are not always bad. Pepper spray and mace are chemical weapons that I like.

On a different note, just how many lists do you have exactly? (Your little icon of "He who keeps lists and likes to make icons" reminded me of that.)

Delightfully random video, Blue.

I tried to get into a programming class last minute and accidentally dropped my chemistry class. My Calculus class was dropped because my grade for the prerequisite was too low. Now, I have to take the Compass test to get into Calculus and talk to the people to get back into my classes.

[Muck308 55]

Good luck to ya.

That reminds me, I need to sort out my classes for this semester.

Who needs science anyway?

[Slashback 136]

How can it be, that there are only 9997 replies in the previous "10,000 Post Thread"?

[Vahr 341]

1468

Don't forget the number!

And to answer your question, 9999 posts would appear as replies (post 1 does not count as a reply), and 2 are missing from a PFB.
