Illusion of Terra

@1xa5 maybe that's just what you want us to think. maybe that's your real name

Apparently yes, although at the time I didn't think it was bullying. it was not the type of bullying people think of if you could only drink one liquid or drink your entire life, what would it be?

Hi there! That's an interesting username, how did you come up with it?

watched rise of the planet of the apes again because I recently got reminded of it because of the corona virus. really enjoyed it

It's not 3. it's 1 although I have to say that it sounds more serious than it is. I technically 'stole' some paste from work for electronic parts that contained trace amounts of gold particles. 'stole' might be an overstatement since they had plenty and someone said I could take some although technically it belonged to the university. I am going to say two in your case because of your surgeries. 1. I have never played chess 2. I have never eaten cheese 3. I have never legally driven a car

that's already considered middle aged? now I feel quite old dagnammit

@RuthisianCodex that's quite a serious take on it not saying you are wrong or anything, I just didn't give it as much thought because the whole la brava gentle criminal thing seemed more as a comedic aspect overall to me. but yeah, there definitely are some things there that are unusual to put it in the best possible way. I don't think they will be playing a major role in the rest of the anime though, which then raises the question of why they would introduce them with such a background

@RuthisianCodex why is that? because la brava is rather young or because of something else? I thought it was great to get better info on their background

Thought why not continue this. 1. I once stole gold from my university 2. I once drove someone over with a car 3. I once cut down a tree for lumber

Probably going with an extra brain in case the current one gives out is there a conspiracy theory you think is true?

@RuthisianCodex I do hope so! She is one of my favorite characters generally among anime

personally I think Charmy is great

well, I usually stock up every two weeks as that is enough. Today however, the stores were almost empty. no toilet paper, no pasta, no sauces (to Southern Europeans that's as important as peanut butter and jelly is to Americans), almost no bread, flour etc. this is actually starting to grind my gears What the heck are people doing? If you sit on a pile of 40 bags of toilet paper, and someone else runs out that's not really great or communal. I am still covered for about two weeks but come on, this mass hysteria is getting out of hand and will affect people who are in need of things because of for example medical conditions etc. also just got an e-mail from work 'any course with more than one student is cancelled' What kind of course does not have more than one student?

wish I could say that he was probably kidding. one of the reasons why we should abandon handshakes and adopt something like bowing in Japan. It's enough for me seeing people use the public restroom and heading straight for the door, not to mention the spread of various microbes they might be carrying

You would 'live' as long as that robot with your mind in it functions, so technically you could live very long. I don't own any pets, but when I way younger I always wanted a cat and I think they are great! If you could live in any time period since the beginning of the universe, including the current one but not future ones, what time period would you want to live in?

$2,000,000 two years from now. I don't need it right now, but with that kind of money I could build a house and retire If possible would you upload your mind to a robot?

Just watched that video and gotta say, that's a lot of toilet paper. do people stockpile for months? That doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. If any kind of shutdown lasts for less than a month then you won't need all that toilet paper. If it lasts for more than a month then I assume you will have worse problems to deal with than toilet paper, such as no running water or electricity. Unless you have your own water and electricity supply, stockpiling for such a long time doesn't seem to make much sense.

I was pretty decent at giving speeches. The trick was not to care what the audience thinks I also never rehearsed speeches for some reason. A lot of people say it helps them a lot though I agree with @Nyxnine on the basic structure of a speech as described, and if it is structured well it is much easier to follow for the audience. If you wanted to make a speech on a problem, you might take the problem of 'how to give speeches' As for social media, I think there are plenty of things you can find if you google 'pros and cons of social media'

no but I came pretty close a couple of times since where I lived was snake and scorpion infested (not joking, when you opened your door you would often see three or four scorpions on the steps, sometimes in the bath tub as well, although I don't know how they got there) what's the weirdest thing you have eaten?

Anyone seen The Future Diary and has thoughts on it? I am considering watching it

Have you seen this week's episode? Seems like they are doing exactly what you asked for Not with the ones you mentioned but still. I also thought this week's episode was quite amusing!

I couldn't figure it out, although I have to say using composites is kinda sly I agree, rain can be quite calming. If you had to give up one of your classic senses (seeing, smelling, tasting, feeling, hearing), which one?

A cartoon show that is usually influenced by Japanese culture and often created in Japan, with many different genres.

I think I will manage the language part. I looked into it a bit and Japanese doesn't seem too different from many European languages in its basic structure. Let's see if I still think that after a few months of study though As for sticking out, I can guarantee that I would. I already stick out in the West because I often look like a mad scientist But for some reason people don't care too much when it comes to scientists/professors/etc. looking like that. Only thing I hope they won't ask is to shave often that's just too much work. I am still considering this, but nothing concrete yet.
