Hormones.  Hormones are making me rage today.

I used to be perfectly normal.  No interest in dating, no physical interests in general.  Now I have some.  I am frustrated in--you'd better believe it--more than one way :I

WHY oh WHY

what the hell happened

ETA: This was when I was 18.  I'm not bemoaning the onset of puberty, jegus.
I feel you. Damn things gave me nothing but trouble.

That depends on the cultural attitude at the times. The minimum tends to be 12 for females and 13 for males, but in some places the age can be as high as 25.
Hmm. In that case, I don't think I'm in an adult body yet.

Not comments, that's the video in itself. I realize that looking at a Richard Dawkins debates with anyone video is unwise, but that's ALL THE WOMAN SAYS. THAT IS ALL SHE SAYS.

Oh true.
Remind me, when is a human considered 'adult'?

The point isn't to improve your body.
What ever state you enter as, that is what you will be cloned as. The only benefit you stand to gain is $10.
Eh. I'm too miserly to do that until I'm almost dying.

Is this the same roommate who warranted semi-daily posts in the RAAAGE thread? The one that you hated and couldn't wait to get away from?
Yes, the same. I think this is one of the heralds of the end times.
*checks*
Maybe.

For no reason. You're walking down the street and some guy says 'Hey how'd you like to get cloned and destroyed and your clone is given 10 bucks abd I take all of your money?!'
We are working with the luxury of a hypothetical situation. The people cloning you can be trusted. They will not betray you. We know this because we designed these people are part of the situation.
I know, it just seems rather pointless to sacrifice a perfectly good fleshsack before it's done.
Just like it's rather pointless to replace the jet engine since the flames have only engulfed half of it. :P

That is to say, by that point the damage has been done, and waiting longer only makes it worse.
But this body that I have is perfectly healthy right now!

I would name my character Rasputin purely because this is the type of magic I'd expect from him.

From what I've read you deserve this. Good luck.

How about we invent a fake crisis to lure one of them into our territory where we kill him and take his place?

Yeah, I'm with the general consensus here. If you're so sick of their bullshit, reveal the truth to them and watch them burn. I know all too well how repressing this stuff goes. It doesn't go well.

This is one of my ultimate rage buttons: 

Someone joins a multiplayer game only to sabotage it.  They do this blatantly or even admit to it in chat.  They laugh in the face of and barrage with verbal abuse anybody who expresses the slightest notion of giving a shit that they're doing this.

That's not what makes me rage.  I expect it.  Whatever.  Take it in stride.

What makes me rage is when other people defend the troll with the excuse that "it's just a game."  You urge other players to report the troll and they go "nah it's just a game whatever not like this is a tournament match or something".

WTF... it's just a game... and that just automatically makes anything excusable... does your time mean nothing to you?  If you're watching a movie at a theater and somebody starts jumping all over the place and shouting obscenities do you just shrug and say "it's just a movie"?  I don't fucking understand.
Unless the movie happens to have Nicolas Cage/Jack Nicholson/Jim Carrey/etc, no.
