Prophet will die when he prophesies a piano will fall on his head, and the prophecy comes true.

You had to have seen that coming... Tehran, Iran

Hehe, sorry. The way I see it, we shouldn't mess with nature. It's worked for all the years humans have existed, and it continues to work today. Of course, because the processes are random, they come up with flaws. In this case, I think it's acceptable to alter genetics in order to cure people of debilitating disorders. However, the idea that some people have the right to enhance their children is wrong. I believe humanity should work toward greater equality instead of further dividing people between the genetically-improved "haves" and the genetically-normal "have nots."

I think the ethical question is more along the lines of whether or not certain people should be able to alter the genetic makeup of their children to make them "better" than other humans. Imagine this: in the future, there is a clinic where you can create your own "designer baby." The process is expensive, so only the wealthy can afford the service, while others must rely on the random, natural method of child production, which can result in harmful mutations and disorders. Relating to evolution and natural selection, in a sense, this scenario brings up the concern that the privileged may be able to have children more suited to their environment. For instance, they could be genetically engineered to be healthier, more intelligent, etc., giving them an advantage over the children of those who cannot afford gene modification. Of course, this is just hypothetical, but the technology to alter genetics is real.

Hate Rain

Yes, and I did. What is the worst restaurant experience you've had?

My Miiverse name is Evan, and my Nintendo Network ID is "ThisIDisBoring." Games: Mario Kart 8, Wind Waker HD, planning on getting the new Super Smash Bros.

Nope! It's just Chuck Testa. Schriefer?

I'm not that into E3 because a) I don't really want to spend the time watching it on TV or online and b) most of the games don't interest me. However, I did watch Nintendo's digital event, which I enjoyed. It was much more entertaining than watching someone talk on stage. I'm looking forward to the new Super Smash Bros. for the Wii U, Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, and the new open-world Zelda game for the Wii U. The rest - meh. I feel the same about Amiibo. There doesn't seem to be much of a point to the concept, except to give you help in battle. Fortunately, I don't think I really have to worry about it, because I don't play online with other people. The only other pereple I'd play with would be my friend or my family, and none of them plan on buying the game or the Amiibo stuff that goes with it. I have mixed feelings about Pac-Man. I like that they're branching out with the characters and adding new ones, but I don't know if Pac-Man was really the right choice. It just seems... odd.

I hate dancing as a whole, so yeah. The next person remembers what he/she dreamed last night.

Fjords (and Slartibartfast, for that matter) Democratic Republic of the Congo

I'm not very familiar with his music, but I'll say love. Alarm clocks

Banned for having an underscore in your username.

It's so nice to have a clean desktop. It was a complete nightmare before this. The pic is a screenshot of the new Zelda game for the Wii U from Nintendo's E3 address.

"Thomas the Tank Engine has got nothing on me."

For the most part, yes. Socialization? That's what the internet is for. The next person has been following E3.

Many times. Not actually at school, but because of it. Ever pulled an all nighter because of a video game?

I don't really know what 'smell' you're referring to, and I wouldn't know what causes it anyway. Do you prefer room temperature or cold water?

The wilderness, in a tent. I don't like camping. Have you ever wanted to get an invention patented?

Banned for that bad pun.

Sorry, nope. I don't check the CJ section very often. The next person prefers mechanical pencils to regular pencils.
