Malcador Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 http://the-toast.net/2015/01/23/tell-high-fantasy-novel/ The Elders would like a word with you. The Ritual is about to begin. Something that has not happened in a thousand years is happening. You are going to the City. There is only one City. It is only said with a capital C. No one needs to bother saying the name of the City. It is the City. Certain members of the Council are displeased with your family’s recent actions. A bard is providing occasional comic relief; no one hired or invited him and his method of earning a living is unclear. The High Priest is not to be trusted. Someone is eating an apple mockingly. There is one body of water. It is called the Sea. The Great Sea, if you are feeling fancy. You live in a region with no major exports, no centralized government, no banking system, a mysteriously maintained network of roads, and little to no job training for anyone who is not a farmer. You have red hair. You wear it in a braid. Your father was a simple man, and you don’t remember much about him – he died when you were so young – but you remember his strong hands, as he fished or carpentered or whatever it was that he used to do with them. You’re going to have to hurry, or you’re going to miss the Fair – and you never miss the Fair. There is trouble at the Citadel. Your full name has at least one apostrophe in it. It is the first page, and you are already late for something. Your mother affectionately chides you as you gulp down a few spoonfuls of porridge; she will be dead by page forty-two. There are two religions in your entire universe. One is a thinly veiled version of Islam. It is only practiced by villains. The other is “being a Viking.” You are a Viking. There are new ways in the land that threaten the Old Way. Your grandmother secretly practices the Old Way, as do all of the people of the hills. The real trouble began the day you arrived at court. Every last nobleman hides a viper in his smile. How you long for the purity of life in your village, which is currently on fire or something. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
Agiel Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 There was a "50 NAKED FIGHTING MEN! SKYRIM" video on Youtube I hesitated to post here. I guess I still kind of do. But put the phrase in quotes into the search bar and you'll find it just fine. Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.” -Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>> Quote "The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete." -Rod Serling

BruceVC Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Happy Australia Day 2015 "Sent to me from a Australian friend " After having dug to a depth of 10 feet last year, British scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 200 years and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network more than 150 years ago. Not to be outdone by the British, in the weeks that followed, an American archaeologist dug to a depth of 20 feet, and shortly after, a story published in the New York Times: “American archaeologists, finding traces of 250-year-old copper wire, have concluded that their ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network 50 years earlier than the British”. One week later, Australia’s Northern Territory Times, reported the following: “After digging as deep as 30 feet in his backyard in Tennant Creek, Northern Territory, aboriginal Billi Bunji, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely ****-all. Billi has therefore concluded that 250 years ago Australia had already gone wireless.”… Makes me bloody proud to be Australian!

Azdeus Posted January 29, 2015 Posted January 29, 2015 1 Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

Woldan Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Have you ever wanted to shoot a car door with silly putty that travels well above the speed of sound? Or chewing gum? No? But you still got to watch this: I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.
