Title: How come we Terrans are the only ones that believe in clothing?
Post by: Scorpius on January 20, 2002, 11:02:00 am: well? The Vasudans only wear flightsuits thats the only time but it seems the rest of em just wander around naked?

Yeah, I know a weird topic.

Post by: Thorn on January 20, 2002, 11:04:00 am: Well, for one, they live on a desert planet, clothing would only be a hinderance. Look at their skin too. It looks tough as hell, they wouldnt need protection from much...
They probably think Terrans are the funny ones...

Post by: vadar_1 on January 20, 2002, 11:09:00 am: same deal, they are naturally adapted, humans really are the worst species in the universe, having only intellegence that dosn't even match the vasudans or the shivans, and having no natural adaption, just worthless soft pink skin

Post by: Scorpius on January 20, 2002, 11:12:00 am: Okay fine, do you think an alien built like a vasudan would be able to stand under its own power. and if it can would they be able to move?

Ha! Shoot that one down!!! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Well our skin is good enough for the enviornment we first settled way back in the day.

Post by: karajorma on January 20, 2002, 05:40:00 pm: Actually some Sci-fi has it that once we get into space more humans will stop using clothes too. After all once you're in a temperature controlled enviroment 24/7 what do you need them for?
Unfortunately that kind of sci-fi never gets made into movies (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

You don`t see many of them in the movies (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif) All the main characters tend to be pretty good looking.
In real life however it would be pretty grim.

Obviously thats defined by the point of when you can classify a chicken from its ancestors, but the original ancestor that created the chicken would have to first create it in the egg, its called um, something to do with variety of uh... o nevermind, and i have a bio exam worth 30% on this on thursday

Naturally, the egg came first. Its a simple logical progression. All chickens come from eggs, but not all eggs come from chickens. Thus, the first chicken egg was laid by something that was not a chicken (though to be fair, it would have to have been very close).

Yup, something damn close to a chicken laid an egg, genetic mutation did the rest. Then man came along and created the concept of KFC (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Post by: Warlock on January 20, 2002, 09:31:00 pm: Well :

1: Now do you REALLY wanna see some of the ppl around you NUDE?

2: Actually most of the in game vids and such had Vasudens in cloths ...lfight suits,..gon looking things etc.

3: Shivans,..well half the running guess is they're actualy a genetically engineered race of killing machines and not a true race,..thus..if you built a bunch of destroyer droids...would you make em wera clothes? And then those built in beam cannons...POOF buhbye clothing....it'd get pricey fast.

Post by: vadar_1 on January 21, 2002, 01:09:00 am: im going with that creation theory, basically i think that the ancients created the shivans, and then the shivans turned on their creators, just like the zerg turned on the xel'naga from starcraft, then again so did the protoss, but they were too slow (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Seriously, if you were a guy in a spaceship surrounded by hot girls and you were all nude, I'd be pretty concerned about any sharp or heavy objects approaching my groin...
