The many questions-not-worth-their-own-thread question thread XX

[madviking]

None, because they are plain stupid. I hardly ever drank in my life, never took drugs and never got laid yet. Don't need to prove myself to my fellow dumb college comrades.

"I don't like pancakes."

"Why not? Pancakes are delicious?"

"I never had them."

"Why not?"

"I don't like them."

"..."

 

[Borachio]

I don't like Coca Cola
Why not? Coke is delicious.
I've never tried it.
Why not?
Because Coca Cola is a carbonated sweet caffeine drink. I can imagine I wouldn't like it on 3 counts.

 

[madviking]

It's still a fallacious position.

I hope there are some biologists here!

What exactly is a gene? According to my research a 'gene' is a particular piece of DNA that codes for a specific protein. For a protein chain to form, the tRNA molecule carrying the amino acid produces an anti-codon, which then base-pairs with a codon on an mRNA molecule. Is the 'gene' the anti-codon sequence on the tRNA, the codon on the mRNA sequence, or both of them after they've been base-paired?

I still have no intention of trying Coca Cola.

Or suicide or heroin or incest or....to mention some random things that aren't desirable for anyone.

Or homosexuality or wearing women's clothes or running a marathon or...to mention some random things that are desirable for some.

Dude, do you watch football? Do you know who Tim Tebow is? I got him to sign my memoirs I wrote and a Broncos jersey. I am like the Tim Tebow of the college I go to .

Oh boy big man on campus! Really. I'm so impressed.

Jokes aside though, why should I try them? To say "Look at me, I can chug all this beer down and do this to!". Yea, what types of people? Frat boys who can't pass tests because they always drunk? No thanks, I prefer having fun other ways.

Who said anything about this crap? I'm not asking you to do a keg stand. What I'm talking about are simple drinking games so you can get nice and inebriated and have a good time with your friends. It's actually a great way to spend an evening. Much more enjoyable imo than staying in your room alone playing video games. Hell playing video games is way better when you have a bevvy of inebriated friends with you. One of my fondest memories in cawlej was watching one of my good friends get really sloshed and then try to play Skyrim. She kept trying to make her character sit on a bench but was actually too drunk to do it. So she gave up and started dancing on our couches instead.

Besides, I rather chase after women then get drunk with a bunch of dudes.

Who said drinking has to be done with dudes? I do most of my drinking with women. My girlfriend is an excellent beer pong partner. Also 5/10 fingers and king's cup are waaaaaaaaaaay better with girls.

It's like the time I tried playing AoE:AoK while hammered. I loaded the save I was playing. I somehow had 10,000 food. (Also, I was playing this on 'hardest' as the Britons ahaha)

Wow man, I'm impressed. You can do stupid frat games with a bunch of drunk unintelligent people. Big man at campus you must be.

Despite the amusement factor I might get from watching a juvenile exchange develop on the oh so interesting topic of "drinking is gr8/turrible" can we leave it roughly with the understanding that it's fine to not like drinking and that calling a social activity some people like to engage in "stupid" is likely to come off as morally fat-headed and yield likewise hostile responses?

Well, tell him that. Sadly I have a life outside of video games and drinking with stupid frat boys. If he doesn't, that's his problem, not mine. I'm done arguing with you guys over a stupid issue.

That's pretty much exactly what I meant as coming off sounding morally fat headed. Not all frat boys are stupid, though the cliche is there and I'm guilty of using it as well. I usually couple that accusation with an example of clearly harmful behavior though, as opposed to enjoying drinking beer while tossing a ball in a cup. I don't enjoy what I consider the idiotic pastime of football either, but I'm not going to call fans dumb because they enjoy drinking beer and watching a game, or far worse, actually jumping around and crashing into each other over a silly little eggball.

At least Football serves a better purpose.

I agree in the sense that is a stupid thing to argue about. However you do realize that your assumption that anyone engaging in drinking games must by definition be stupid frat boys crushing cans of Bud on their foreheads (or building a pyramid) and terrorizing the nerds (who undoubtably come out on top with hilarious results) is seriously flawed.

In fact, I'd go as far as to say the vast minority of people engaging in drinking games on this forum are even frat boys at all.

Wow, we got a lot of beer pong people here.

Dude I'm 38 and very quiet when drunk. I haven't played a drinking game in years (but I'm confident if I did, it would end in tears for Owen and madviking). I haven't said WOOOOO since the late 90's.

May I humbly suggest considering adopting a few more shades of grey in your attitude. But then again, I'm not a published video game champion so what the hell would I know.

I'm calling shenanigans madviking. Obviously you'd be a tri lambda.

It's physical activity that causes brain injury with some regularity. The similarities seem striking from my chair.

I don't usually drink, but when I do, I prefer gin.

Yeah well I don't play stupid drinking games and wishing that I did so what the hell do I know.
