Alphabet Soup - Game

[Muhandes]

On this note I bid you farewell. This was not fun to begin with, and it descended to a new low right now.

PC++ for the last time in this thread. (yes, I did steal another letter)

[AldenteVonTino]

Pictures aren't really words now, are they? But at least it was an "N"!
(And there was no stealing of a letter, because it's in the same post as the letter you had to use. Sorry.)

[Carygon Nijax]

Oh my God... don't you know about that phrase that says "An image is worth a thousand words"?

[AldenteVonTino]

Don't you see that Carygon Nijax was supposed to use "Q"? Bummer, almost made it thru again, too!

[Corrupt Shadow]

Everyone noticed that... except for CN, that is.

[Carygon Nijax]

Folks... I wrote that on purpose, because of blink's images

[AldenteVonTino]

Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!

[AldenteVonTino]

I did hope there would be more than just pics, Blink! Not that the humor (or design) is flawed, but this IS a vocabulary-related game, and pics (although worth a thousand words) aren't really testing your language skills!

[Corrupt Shadow]

Kant was an idiot.

[Cristiona]

A philosopher.

[AldenteVonTino]

Abracadabra! (Looks like we have a forgetful player among us! Not about Kant, but about the thread rules, as well as how to google!)
Immanuel Kant

[Satan]

But wait a second, CS. Why is Kant an idiot? I've not read all his works, but I do know his general ideas, and it's an improvement on what was there. Alot of his ideas were a step in the right direction. Not to say that his ideas were all correct, but that doesn't make him an idiot. That'd be like saying Aristotle was an idiot simply because available knowledge at the time was limited and he came to wrong conclusions. Or are you mad at Kant for saying that God does not exist, but is necessary to be invented for the sake of upholding society? Which is most certainly true; I'd hate to see how much worse off the world would be if most people didn't have the slightest thing restraining them from being the evil, hedonistic things they are :/ Notice I say most people, because some people are able to arrive at these conclusions from pure reason.

[Corrupt Shadow]

C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER!

(Just for Blink)

[Corrupt Shadow]

But "C" comes after "B", dork.

Here you go (for reference): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_alphabet

[Carygon Nijax]

as for Kant being an idiot... remember we are in presence of a man who is soon to be married... he might think every men are stupid.. but remember, that's the way we all look at him

[AldenteVonTino]

Believe it or not, Kant was a smart man!

[Corrupt Shadow]

Can't agree with you on that one; sorry.

[AldenteVonTino]

Everyone? No, I doubt that Blink thinks so...

[Satan]

For what reason, CS? You haven't even laid out a proper argument. You're insulting one of the influential philosophers of time and not even giving a reason as to why :/

[Corrupt Shadow]

Give me a break, Sate. This is an alphabet soup game thread... I wasn't aware I had to continue debating philosophy.

[Satan]

However, you were the one who chose to bring it up here. So I'm continuing it here. Meaningless libel is something I do not condone >.>

[Corrupt Shadow]

It wan post based upon an opinion. I don't feel like arguing over Kant. Side-note: libel is against someone living.

[Satan]

Just where do you get that idea? The definition of libel doesn't specify the person in contempt has to be living, it just says it brings contempt on that person and is in written form. Here, from Merriam-Webster:

2 a : a written or oral defamatory statement or representation that conveys an unjustly unfavorable impression b (1) : a statement or representation published without just cause and tending to expose another to public contempt (2) : defamation of a person by written or representational means (3) : the publication of blasphemous, treasonable, seditious, or obscene writings or pictures (4) : the act, tort, or crime of publishing such a libel

Your statement was written and conveys an unjustly unfavorable impression. It was published without just cause to expose another (Kant) to public contempt (in this thread).

Don't state your opinion on a forum if you don't want it discussed. Regardless of whether or not this is a game thread.

[Corrupt Shadow]

'Kay, here's the deal. I don't agree with most of his writings. Do I want to go into massive detail on them? Nope.

[Satan]

Alright, back to A. How do you not agree with most of his writings? I mean, he was a very progressive thinker who contributed greatly to the art of reason >.>

[Corrupt Shadow]

But I started with "K" after your "J". Man, some of you people need to study up on your alphabet.

[AldenteVonTino]

Can't you see he just nuked the thread a little? I thought it funny!

[Satan]

Did not, CS.

'Kay, here's the deal. I don't agree with most of his writings. Do I want to go into massive detail on them? Nope.

Last I checked, ' didn't come after J. In fast, I don't think it's a letter at all :p

[Carygon Nijax]

everyone.. congratulate Sate! he became the "Alphabet Soup - Game Cop"
