The blankmind-free thread
We have 18-ish hours left. So let's talk Princess Diana. Seriously, who wouldn't believe that the British royal family is a bunch of alien reptiles?

The Nazi flag is red, black, and white.

The Verizon logo is red, black, and white.

Not a coincidence, people. Wake up!

Mirrors don't reflect, they're actually portals to a parallel universe containing people's evil twins. When you're not looking your evil twin will jump out of the mirror, kill you and take your place.

Wake up, sheeple!

Science is all one big conspiracy formulated by Satanist-athiest Charles Darwin to destroy Christianity. Scientists don't actually do research in their labs, they just worship Satan, eat babies, invent new lies and sodomize each other all day.

Wake up!

Muslim terrorists didn't pilot two jumbo jets into the World Trade Center. Larry Silverstein actually piloted the Twin Towers into the path of two jumbo jets in order to kill the Muslims on board.

Nobody actually climbs Mount Everest they set off from base camp, walk around the corner and all laugh at how gullible the everyone is. Scenes of planting the flag are created in a studio in pinewood, I know because my great aunt's sister's son's brother once told after a few pints. Notice how no one every "conquers" Everest on April fools day as that would give the game away.

That's true Maniac I heard that from your great aunt's sister's son's brother. We've both heard it so that confirms the truth even though we both got it from the same source, that still corroborates it, right?

Did you also know that the US government blew up the Challenger space shuttle on purpose? There was a nationwide teachers strike planned for the sprint of 1983 in response to Ronald Reagan's massive cuts to public school funding. Reagan killed Christa McAuliffe to send a message to the United Federation of Teachers. After considering more subtle methods like a execution style shooting or cement shoes Reagan decided that the best way to intimidate the teachers was to kill one of their own on live television with an exploding space shuttle.

I'll be completely honest. I hacked blankmind's mind (given, his mind is blank so not too hard) so he would get himself silenced. He's also programmed to do it again when the time is right.

Also, people don't need to drink, they're just addicted to water because the government adds fluoride to all liquids, which is known for it's addictive qualities. Having water taps inside houses only furthers the stereotype that it's necessary. Cave men were well known for not drinking ANY liquids, and they turned out just fine.

never mind about parties, what you need to be concerned about is that fox news broadcasts invisible signals that affect your sense of smell. we need to know if fox news is using mind control and what specifically its purpose would be.

this is more important than your party, sheep_sox

So, to sum up.

A baby-eating sodomite of a “scientist” stumbled upon a “mirror” that is actually a portal to another world whilst he was not really climbing Everest. This portal happened to be installed in the car that was transporting Diana through the French tunnels on that fateful night. The significance that the chasing paparazzi were driving red, white and blue cars should not be lost on anyone who knows the Royal family background. Just before the crash Diana’s evil twin (or Evil Diana’s twin depending on your perspective) came through the portal, killed Diana and then converted to Islam. She tried to rekindle her affair with other Muslims, but that didn’t happen (or did it?)/ She later went on to fly one of the planes that the twin towers were moved into and luckily saw her reflection in the glass and popped back to the alternate universe which is why hardly any of her remains remain. None of this has been reported by Fox, so it must be true. She will, of course, reappear in this world when the time is right, probably at Stonehenge just to outshine Pinder.

The current US economic model based on capitalist ideology is unsustainable, if the US govt don't make changes soon the decision will be taken out of their hands, a run on the US$ is a lot closer than you think.

We kick things off tonight as Colin Kaepernick, Jim Harbaugh and the 49ers hope to remind folks why they were the NFC Champions last year...by playing one of the teams who gave them the most trouble last year, the Rams! The 0-3 Giants try and prove they're not dead (yet) against the Alex Smith, Andy Reid and the surprisingly-alive Chiefs...and a battle of undefeated teams on MNF, the Saints and ...Dolphins??? Let's get started, Week 4--PICK 'EM!

Can a European legally buy/wear a gun in America...
...without doing anything special other than being in America, being over 21 and paying for the gun? Also if you can, is this regular bussiness? Are there, like, gun shops near airports so all the foreigners coming in can rent/buy guns?
Just trying to understand this part of American gun laws.

i think i am going to vomit. the navy is now allowing mixed caps in its communications. once a bastion of all-caps, the organization was inflicted this year with the plague of mixed caps that has infiltrated society. almost as disgusting as the mixed-caps road signs.

bought off tech corporations: how we get to 1984!
are you one of those naive people thinking that if your computer is off and not connected to the internet that you cannot be spied upon? http://www.infowars.com/91497/
so... apparently modern intel processors have the ability to (assuming your computer is plugged in, or is a laptop with a battery in it) be turned on remotely, and can be controlled through a secret backdoor 3G capability that you do not have access to.

Problem with gameID=126551
Italian player of game ID=126551 claim that "The moves done by the site algorithm was not the ones [he] did", write a global message and leaves the game!
I don't know if someone could verify that, but is it possible to put the game in such a mode where a new player could pick up his country ? The game is in Spring 1902 and the situation of Italy is fine. Thx

Scary parts of the Affordable Care Act
If you aren't American the particulars of the ACA don't affect you. If you are American you need to educate yourself on the truly scary nature of the law leaving completely aside the political debate. It is the law and it has real consequences for Americans.
