I would choose no. The problem with immorality is that you can't die, as you will always be subjected to the same routine behaviors and emotions. They say that predictably is what brings stability, but I view it as partial insanity due to being without any substance. Life is already hard to dwell in with my constant failures to find a fair range of value in myself, which led to five suicidal attempts in the past. I think the reflection of unsuccessful attempts have inspired me to wait for my own death.

To me order and purpose is the nature of the Universe, therefore there are reasons for everything. If there is no order and purpose, the Universe will fall apart and cease to exist. The Universe has mechanisms that imply there is order and purpose. Just look at the human body. It is obviously designed with functions that imply order and purpose. It has a set pattern of design therefore it makes sense. Reasonable patterns makes sense. It's not just some random blob with no function that has no reason and meaning behind it's design. Reason and meaning is born out of purpose and order. 

 

There are patterns of Order all over creation; patterns that imply meaning like a word or a sentence. Even random patterns have meaning and they mean Chaos. 

I assume this was directed to my case on nihilism? Someone is strong in their beliefs, but how we can know for certain, of all this? I guess it's up to us to find purpose and meaning, but it always seemed beyond my comprehension of past pursuits. A bit of a foreign subject to engage in for me. 

Nihilism is something that I often struggled with for a couple of years. It gives me comfort in the sense that nothing in this life actually makes sense, which takes away wasteful critical thinking. On the other hand, I'm also in conflict that I gave up too soon on searching for answers in life that could be in the range of understanding. I suppose this is therapeutic worthy for next week's session. 

What I wouldn't give to have a retro collection of mid 1980s through Sega Saturn and Nintendo 64 systems. Had I known how massively disappointing gaming would be past that, I would have kept them all. I would say Armored Core and Chaos Breaker would be honorable mentions. 

Hmmm....this is the only sequel I haven't touched. If I buy a Playstation 5, I would like to try it. I've fallen out of touch with newer related things since it's prequel. 

Well, I like a well done steak, but it's personal preference. To me, what really brings out the flavor of steak is by using the same method of how buttermilk fried chicken is made. I've always call it chicken fried steak. 

Such lovely games they are. I need to go back to them and finish them. The two difficulty always seemed on par with the Megaman series. I wish I was a bit younger, because greater youth and video games usually comes with much more patience and a strong attention span to stay consistent with me, by never withdrawing from something so challenging. 

Lately, after spending time on it, I seem to gradually liking the new one for what it is. Over the years, I've turned less engaged into the genre, feeling much more relaxed, casting aside the feeling of intensity and ambition from the competitive sense. I guess there's nothing wrong with being casual, being a few years away from 40.

I found that using the whole cast and progressing that way have it's benefits, as I would keep coming back to this game due to the alternative, and others to preserve the genre's life. 

I'm looking forward to buying FEXL Another Dash on the Nintendo Switch, because I did like the Street Fighter EX series and the first Fighting Layer, because of the interesting characters and systems in place. I wish Arika the best in producing more games beyond these two.

All I can think of:

That's some humor you have. Amusing in a way. Made my day. ^_^ 

The Legacy of Kain, Soul Reaver. It's been many, many years since I've played that. I love a dark and gothic atmosphere. 

The Undertaker, Chris Jericho, and Lita were my favorites. I did like Glacier though, due to being a Subzero inspiration. 

I thought I would like to share a recipe with those who take an interest in cooking, which is buttermilk fried shrimp. I wasn't that engaged with seafood, which I should have sooner, coming from New Orleans LA.

The ingredients are:

Shrimp
Onion Salt
Garlic salt
Seasoned Salt
Accent or Old Bay seasoning
Black Pepper 

Paprika
Cayenne Pepper (optional for those who like spicy)
Buttermilk 
All purpose flour
Cornmeal

Directions:

Season shrimp gracefully with seasoned salt, old bay or accent, and black pepper and mix the seasonings with all shrimps by hand. Dip them in buttermilk, (there's no need to worry if the shrimps are too salty depending on if you fall victim of heavy handedness, because the buttermilk will deplete some of the salt, and balance out the flavor). Next, proceed with mixing the all purpose flour with cormeal, onion salt, garlic salt, paprika cayenne pepper. Infuse all together and put the shrimp in it, so they can all be coated. 

Fry for 3 to 4 minutes.

Note: To me, this is the best shrimp I've ever had so far, which surpasses Bourbon Heat restaurant's shrimp. Though, my plan is to go back to school in the fall for culinary arts, as soon as if I'm qualified for financial aid. I wish to own a business in this field.

I would like to know your impressions should you try this recipe or if you have a different, or better approach to having good shrimp.
 

This might be viewed as antihumanism, if not inane to the majority, from this unpopular opinion, but I'm not sure if it's appropriate for the forums.

I don't think anyone deserves jail or prison, because it's revenge based, as I think there is no set defined path for justice, based on how we subjectively perceive good or bad. While I don't put much stock in the two, I believe it's only the perspectives, stand points, which separates us. There can only be a difference of both sides that are at odds with each other and should be left at that.
 

Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell, G Gundam, and Hokuto no Ken are my favorites. I always thought that the lyrics of this song contains alot of weight to carry from an individual through out their lives, which that aspect made it a favorite. Ironically, the feeling of that "weight to carry" is what gave me inspiration to be open to bands like the old Linkin Park over 20 years ago, due to those who identify with depression and anxiety. 

The new anime I like and wish to continue is food wars, because I have an interest for culinary arts.

Though, I don't spend much time on fighters anymore, I'll take it still. I like that this one maintains a strong old school vibe, like with Samurai Shodown. Not many people play Street Fighter 2 Hyper Fighting anymore, so I'll need this as a replacement. 

Interesting...

Is Emptyeyes an alt. account of B-Tier?

I only have one account, but I'm curious to why you're comparing me to someone else? I must be similar to this person you're posting about?

Is there any significance behind you guy's usernames? I wondered how many people thought mine was just a typo. 

 

I've been using this one for quite some time. OPTIMUS is pretty obvious. 124 is my dad's car number while he was working in law enforcement. 

My username is the perception of what my relatives and others think of me. To me, I guess it's suites my past, but for the present, I have gained some degree of emotional intelligence over the years. However, I'm working on a more stable range of emotions and a connection with others. I've always thought when I finally connect with someone, I'm too depended on their existence, which is unhealthy for me. Also, I've always revolved myself around others to have a justification of existence.

I didn't know of this band, because my username is from this song:

Deadly_Raver, Impulse buying....I have that problem as well and I'll try to control myself.

Vomiting alot of blood, clear, and yellow back then, I can only keep minimal amounts of food in my stomach still. 

Sex and alcohol are what I've lived for, for a while. From therapy, I was told that it is a destructive path to side with and I'm starting to believe that. It was always hard for me to have purpose in life and loss what little interest I've had in things, which is the reason why I chose pleasure over not being able to connect with the norm. 

I'll try to connect and see some positivity in reality.

I don't think it's that simple, man. You don't just get to decide not to be an alcoholic. At least not in my experience.

I suppose you're right. Maybe I'm reckless. Even with going to substance abuse programs, relapsing to use again recently is annoying for me. I was told that I would have this disease until death, but I wish that wasn't true. 

Living a solitary life gets to me, moreso with isolating myself further in this pandemic. That's when the urge to use again surfaces for me. 

After getting a stomach ulcer weeks ago, I think it's time to change from being an alcoholic. I need to take better care of myself. I rather die with less problems, than more serious ones. 

Also, it's time to bring sexy back by revoking all this weight gain by heavy yeast and medications, because I miss the attention I've gotten from both men and women. Being bisexual is great. 

I think that this game was decently executed, as I'm glad that very few fighters still have sprites. I do prefer Melty Blood over this, but I still can't complain about this either. 

I've liked the old school 2d games and 3d ones. I disagreed with the more recent ones , because it's more modernized as the rest.
