I was going to play that game, but I saw that it was something like 500MB. Imagine how much RAM that'll need to work!

Sometimes I worry how much people don't understand computers.

All i know is that Justin Bieber lyrics are unbelieberble! My vote is to send them to the nearest star with a 50/50 chance of an Earth-like planet. We really shouldn't leave them anywhere within radio distance.

I approve of shooting people at the sun.

I assumed at least 50/50 % chance. Because I'd very much like to launch this century, rather than the next.

I just imagined a tiny mantis on a giant vacuum.

... That's cool. Better than a giant mantis. @_@

I misunderstood and thought he was saying what I said was stupid.

... So I guess a self-fulfilling idea, there~ :D

'Idiot' a matter of perspective really. I've always found people who say "Humans are stupid!" themselves stupid, as the only real idea of intelligence we've got comes from other humans. What do we compare humans to?

If we lived in the galactic republic and it comprised of 591 races and 585 of those were more intelligent than us, then yes, maybe "Humans are stupid" would be a valid phrase. At the moment, both "humans are stupid" and "humans are intelligent" are equally (in)valid phrases. :)

... I just totally misread everything BUT I'VE WANTED TO SAY THAT FOREVER NRGHHHHHH XD

And Descan, you is not stoopids. :)

I generally go with the idea of "A person can be intelligent. People, on the whole, are stupid". Especially in mobs. Even smart people in a mod end up doing very stupid things.

"Humans are intelligent", unlike "Humans are stupid", is often not meant as a comparision, but as the statement that humans have achieved certain abilities like consciousness, reflection, deduction, etc., thus meking the former actually a more valid phrase then the latter.
