Here we are, mah first survey, created by the omnipotent SAM! What is your name? Shachar.
Where are you from? HELO, Israel.
What is your credit card number? No.
Do you enjoy violent films? Depends how violent O.o
Do you not think enjoying violent films make you a sick fuck? Not really. Human nature and stuff. 'sides, keeps from climbing the nearest tower with mah snipah-scope.
Would you kill to avoid being killed? Yep. Computer games make you violent.
Can violence ever be justified? Some violence can be justified, yes. There are a variety of cases where it can be justified, most of the times when dealing with an irrational force or being while seriously needing to affect them either for your survival or theirs (Altruism? Heh. Maybe.)
If you could go back in time and murder Adolf Hitler as a baby - would you? Nah. Germany at that time would've just spawned another dictator and anti-semitism was rife enough as is. Not to mention the Weimar Republic would've fallen with or without his interference.
Do you believe in censorship? Only moderately. Some people are psychotics who normally wouldn't pop until they visit that ONE website that says white christians are superior, and then they go all Nazi and school-shootist. The same applies for people who are going 'over the line' and making inflammatory comments either merely to enrage the masses or, convertly, doing way more damage than good.
Would you use the words agnostic/atheist/deist/Satanist to describe yourself? I'm a variable agnostic. I can be switched to belief in God and/or crystals/angels/fairies pretty quickly :p
How would you describe your spiritual position? Spiritual position? On a bed, prefferably asleep XD
How would you describe my Mum, half full or half empty? I did not have sexual relations with that woman.
If there was one thing you could change to make life better - what would it be? Life better for who? Myself? Eh. Instantly making myself beautiful, smart, strong, rich etc. Life better for the entire world? Instantly making them ALL beutiful, smart, strong, rich etc. while at the same time turning them ALL into complete altruists. Maybe even hippies.
What is the purpose of existence? According to my religious beliefs all life came to be due to the inevitability of having the correct terms on which to evolve and has only survived since due to reproduction before death. Therefore I believe life has only two purposes, which are -mutually exclusive-: A) Not dying. Ever. Nor weakening in function, at all. B) Reproduction and as much as possible without causing death due to overcrowding.
Keep in mind, only one of these clauses can exist per species.
Do you believe Euthanasia should be made legal? Yes, but the terms for who may be euthanised must be described in insane amounts of detail, detail so tiny we probably do not yet have the capability to craft without trial/error which in this case I believe must not happen. Legalisation of the Euthanasia process must be perfect from the start.
Should an individual have the right to own a firearm/napalm/etc? No. Criminals will find it way, way harder to get the stuff while normal people who are a tad on the psychotic side won't start shooting people. Firearms drive people into violence and legalising them only makes problems worse.
Should a man have the right to more than one wife, or on the flip side, should a woman be allowed more than one husband? Nope. But whores on both sides should be legalised, form a labor union and be under governmental control for taxation and proper hygiene and health clauses. This will not only increase revenue and make visiting whores safe, it'll have the two-fold effect of saving marriages marred by dull sex-life AND stop women being sold into sexual slavery.. Not to mention the whores themselves will be seeing a higher class of human beings coming for their services.
Should abortion be made illegal? Only after the fetus becomes self-supporting i.e. its heart starts beating. Otherwise you damn your newborn to 3 years of living torment and death. PS: Jesus cries for every baby unborn but then plucks them from where they are and tosses 'em straight to hell, seeing as they haven't yet evolved the mental capability to believe in him. Read your own bible. Good going there, christians.
Do you truly believe shit such as music can influence someone enough to make them pull out their gat and pop pop pop? Yes but only if the subject is already all psycho. Normal people won't be driven to violence by mere images, sounds, and games. They need to be treated bad at home, work, school and playground and/or have 'problems'.
Are you grateful your filling in a mentally stimulating set of questions rather than repeatedly writing "lol"? You misspelled "you're" :)
Why do World heavyweight boxing champions have bodyguards? Incase enraged fans of OTHER heavyweight boxing champions with knives decide to get all stabbity. And/or with the gas grenades.
Do you think McDonaldisation is sweet ass or shitty? The food itself stinks. However I think McDonaldisation globally is a good thing.
Hey, hey, put that knife down! Hear me out! Look at it like this. Here you are, in the far east. To your left is fried scorpion; To your right, they will kill the cobra you choose and spill its blood and bile into a glass for your enjoyment. And you are hungry. Now what? McDonald's, that's what. It's a hamburger. It's fries. And it's coke. A fixation of civilians you know and are comfortable with. Maybe all those people who yell against McD's should go abroad more, I know I got enlightened. Of course, it would be nice not to have to eat plastic and air..
What do you think happens when you die? You decompose. If you're lucky enough hundreds of years later your body is dug up as a mummy and the scientists of the future go all like "Oooh, look at the primitive diseases THIS one had." Spiritually? Eh. I'm gonna wait 'till I get there. If I see anything interesting I'll tell you.
Do you think there is a doggie heaven? See previous question.
Is it getting increasingly obvious that I am rapidly running out of ideas for questions? It was obvious from the 'mum' thing :p
Paedophilia - hot or not? =P Die.
Michael Jackson - Crazy bitch or a smooth criminal? Only in America can a poor black boy grow into a rich white woman.
Goths - in trying to look individual with the wearing black, are they not just all looking exactly the same? Goths, punks, rockers, all try to make themselves different and unique. And they are. Just like everybody else. Sorry, wearing a different brand spiked bracelet doesn't help me recognize which one of you is Jim and which is Alice :p
Is stereotyping a good or bad thing? It's a good thing, to an EXTENT. I.e. "He's a jew so he's fat, he wants to control the world and he uses the blood of christian children for rituals." is slightly too negative for my taste. I could be biased though..
Why is abbreviation such a long word? Because english sucks and when I conquer the earth you will all be talking Hebrew, kay thanks.

Oh god. Omygawd. I FINALLY MANAGED TO RENT OUT KINGDOM HEARTS, After an ~eternity of trying, I can't believe it's finally in my possession..
Except now my tv is having this highly annoying bug where the channel number is constantly displayed on the top left, hiding some of the dialogue.
Why... WHY..

A whole lot has happened since the last time I updated but I was too lazy to update, and I guess it doesn't really matter now, being so far back.. I just haven't felt strongly enough about something to go and update about it. Right now it's the overbearing desire to whimper "Don't hurt me.." and crawl into a ball.. Mostly due to complete disintigration of all self-esteem I got..

You're not pirates, you're just slackers! - All: A pirate I was meant to be! All: Trim the sails and roam the sea! - Guybrush: We'll surely avoid scurvy if we all eat an orange. Haggis: And..! Haggis: ..Um... Bill: Well.. Edward: Err... Bill: Door hinge?.. Edward: No, no.. Bill: Guess the song's over, then. Haggis: Guess so. Edward: Okay, back to work.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGGGGGGGGHHHHH. 3 news emails today, all 3 of them Klez. And the email I sent to the one who I suspect is infected hasn't bounced..
It had arrived, and had not been replied to. Or had it? And I don't even know who it is! I am so incredibly pissed off. If anyone who has ever read this LJ uses Outlook (or Outlook Express), and does not run an antivirus on their email messages, you may have been infected, and Klez actually records email address from webpages - not just your Outlook address book. So PLEASE, I -beg-, go to http://www.mcafee.com and run their Housecall application to scan for any viruses on your computer... I'm getting tired of having to download 80k emails..

My grandmother had died today. She spent nearly a week hospitalised.. This has followed years upon years upon years of useless clinging to life despite a body that's breaking down.. No longer being able to even walk without assistance, or control bodily functions, and a brain rotting away from altzheimer's - it was so bad for the last few years I'm quite happy for her that this living torture is over. She believed so strongly that there's nothing after death, that she refused to let go... Sigh..
Funeral is tommorow..
Along with a bible test. Genesis chapters 6-41. Better get reading..

Dude, they've been shooting a scene out of a soap opera at the park next to me.. I could see 'em from my fourth story window... I first got suspicious about camerawork going on outside when, during my nap, I noticed there was a strong light on my ceiling. "Mmmhh?.." I muttered half-asleep as I went to see who's the muppet that's shining a spotlight on my windows as I noticed a cast and filmcrew setting up! Whaddya know. My only media experiences were with the news this far (appeared once on TV, once in the papers) so I was interested to know how the REAL TV work gets done. Thankfully for me, the park is surrounded on all sides by buildings so the noise from the main street is muffled and the acoustics is so great, that at 30 ground meters away and four stories high, I could hear every word...
It ended up beind rather boring. The scene consisted of a drunk guy going up against a bunch of mean looking guys. (I use guy, I mean teenager) He asks for a puff on the joint, gets it. Asks for a sip of the vodka, takes the bottle, stumbles and drops it. Long story short he gets beaten to the ground and kicked by a group. Then two kids come from the side yelling "Hey leave him alone, can't you see he's drunk?". Make long story short, one gets stabbed, the other ends up rocking back and forth on the ground. Then a "main character" (I guess) comes in, grabs him by the collar, "What happened here?" when another of the goon boys comes from behind and stabs him twice.
And I don't even know what soap opera this is O.o
And in other news, this is funny. http://users.pandora.be/vortex/=Funneh=/gay.jpg

Jeez. (Different spelling, for fun) What a pointless little disease. Heavily sick (of doom) for a day and then it passes.
Sigh. Oh well.

Bah, why am I such a hipchondriac this winter? I'm usually in perfect health! But this time I seem to be getting one-cold-after-another.. And now I seem to have a real flu, complete with feeling sick, headaches, stomach aches...
Blah.
And in other news, Unreal 2 may be called "uninnovative" by some but there are still memorable moments. Like the dam-blowing mission. Wander into the dam to set off some charges...
"Intruder - You have been detected. We have locked down B-Section. There is no escape. Drop your weapons and wait for the security detail. If you comply you will not be harmed." "Ha ha, yeah right!" "Ssh!"
... And a short while later...
"Where is he now? Is he dead yet?" "I don't know - I can't find him!" "Can't find him? Where could he go - he's locked in!" "I'm looking, I'm looking!"
"Security detail, report in." ... "Security detail - Report in!" "I don't like this." "Shut up. Keep looking. He must be somewhere."
"Oh god, he's in the ceiling!" *rattattattattatta* *silence*

I've been ordered to update so I will O.o
I got into something of a "mini-college". A 13th grade, if you will. Concentrated computer science, computer science and some more computer science... This will ensure obscenely high chances of getting into the extremely luxuriuos computer school in the army... I'm happy because not alot got in! Guess I did good on the tests ^.^
And also I found out that my brother, 14 years old, can't tie his shoelaces. .. Yeah.
Talk to me, people :)

Saturday, February 1st, 2003... Upon reentry, the shuttle Columbia broke up into at least 7 pieces, 200,000 feet above Texas.
It carried a multi-cultural crew, including the first, and only Israeli astronaut.. We let him go, and he never came back.
May all their souls rest in peace.

Hmmm, played Sim City 4... built up a nice city. Well, it would have been rather nice if it weren't for the volcano that sprouted up in the middle of the park... The police would've had an easier time evacuating everyone if their precinct wasn't in the process of being destroyed by a sudden freak lightning storm.. A meteor shower kinda destroyed the majority of the agricultural area but there was no time for that because a fire "accidently" happened in the power plant... But the firefighters weren't anywhere on site. mainly because THEIR precinct was being beaten up by a giant robot. The tornado thankfully turned away and into the ocean.
But suddenly.. This weirdest bug occured. Three little specks blew away the storm clouds, destroyed all the incoming meteors, put out the fires and beat up the giant robot. They also raised my opinion polls.
Essentially, they solved all the problems except for the volcano... Somebody had built and observatory there. Beats me.
Anyways, I'm glad to declare my new city Townsville safe and sound, thanks to the power specks. I'm absolutley certain no string of natural disasters like this could happen again! :)

There was a lightningstorm, two days ago. We Israelies are simply not used to this kind of thing. Infact, something so bizarre and odd happened: Lightning struck REAL close to my house. The TV and my modem went ZZZZAAAAP and silenced evermore. >.<
However, we're now getting a new TV. A bigger one, with stereo that can also playback NTSC so I can watch region 1 DVDs on the big screen- And, my modem was replaced with a 56k! An upgrade! Whoopee! Finally I can surf normally like a normal person! Praise be to Yevon.
And that's basicly it.

First Israeli in space! A little over two hours ago, I watched history being made on TV! That 5 minute countdown... Now I know how america felt during the cold war.
But it's over now and space is no longer the property of the goyim! :P Read all about it here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/2663853.stm
It's patriotism time.

I have a cold... Oh woe is me.. *hatchooooo!*
And I wanted to go see TTT again today with my mates. Funny thing though, just as I was about to call the "coordinator" he called me and said that people suddenly don't feel like going today so they're not going, sorry.
These weird, lucky coincidences keep happening to me. Conventional wisdom I've learned from playing roguelike games (like Nethack, A.D.O.M. and Angband) says it must've been something I ate :P
