(OP) User ID: 580414 Australia 12/27/2008 05:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | THE STRANGEST THING I 'LEARNT' FROM GLP WAS HOW STUPID AND GULLIBLE WE ALL ARE!! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 580402Yes, we are. But you have to remember that the truth is hidden amongst the lies. It has to be for if it wasn't then it would not be palatable. 99% OF INFORMATION HERE IS LIES, ONLY A FEW POSTERS STRING THE BITS TOGETHER INTO SOMETHING MEANINGFUL. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 580402TAKE THE TINY ELEMENT OF TRUTH FROM EACG CONSPIRACIES AND YOU GET THE BIG PICTURE. That's correct and it's that way for a reason. One should be suspicious of one's government but only to a point. The primary motivation of any government is to collect taxes and not all of those that work for the government are hell bent on tricking you into believing the Health Department are evil. (CDC for Americans.) My life. Quoting: Spirit * Man ! 418811* ---V--- I agree, it sucks to be you! . . . I'm kidding, it's everyone's responsibility to seek happiness for themself, no one is going to give it to you and many would take it from you if they saw any profit in it for them. Or learn Chemistry, one of the two, I forget which! The weirdest thing I've ever read here, which really stretched my imagination, has been the 'timeline' stuff Quoting: Anonymous Coward 580409Threads talking about how some celebrities have been announced dead more than once, because we are drifting between different realities... Philip K Dick would have been proud It's strange, it almost seems like everyone has their own reality sometimes. Sometimes the realities simply coincide, other times they clash. String theory works! Quoting: Slartybartfast[link to en.wikipedia.org] Strangest true story, there's been so many, the chances of you being here is supposedly the most fantastical, amazing , series of happy coincidences that it is would be very hard to believe. Actually, the chances of my being here are predetermined by the reaction I get from others that wish I weren't. The strangest thing that had happend to me, was when a meteor hit my car, while driving... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 570296could be a hell of a movie.. I'd go see it. Just to see someone say, "Shit!" and swerve off the road. The story seems longer than most of the movies that come out of Hollywood! Holy cow! It's the woowoo patrol! |

(OP) User ID: 580419 Australia 12/27/2008 06:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The aliens aren’t really aliens; they’re the first amongst the space force. They spend all day in a small compartment and are subject to radiation, from both the radioactive background of the thermosphere and gamma rays from space. However, this is augmented by the nuclear power source of the satellites they man as they continue to serve as sentinels over the weapons of mass annihilation on the satellites they inhabit. They receive most of the nutrients they require from the bacteria in their intestinal tracts. However, their reduced demand for resources is responsible for their success in this field. It’s not like they’re active, it wouldn’t matter if they wanted to be. Eventually their muscles would atrophy and as such the less they have to do the better so their living quarters are abysmal. Their big heads caused by tumours and the light weight of the cartilage that holds their frames together bends with each new tumour. Such is the price they pay so that there’s a last line of defence over the launching of various orbital based weapons systems. So I guess it’s a good thing they’re not entirely human, but rather genetically engineered creatures to serve a singular purpose. Otherwise human rights activists might complain. When the American satellite failed early this year due to the dead alien, the Americans knew they had to destroy the satellite. If they didn’t then the payload would’ve predictably killed millions of people. This could’ve easily been construed as an act of war on the unfortunate nation to suffer this disaster. So that's my attempt at something stranger than fiction. Now hopefully someone else will raise the bar and the woowoos will really be paranoid. Holy cow! It's the woowoo patrol! |
