Holy ****!

I rest my case.

Seriously though, we also invented Art, Literature, Poetry, Medicine, Science and a host of other things, we invent ****, that's us, if we bombed ourselves back to the stone-age then in about 5000 years, we'd have Nuclear weapons all over again. That's why Anarchy is pointless, it's just winding the clock back and repeating the same mistakes over again. And, yes, we'd also have other people claiming we should nuke ourselves back to the Stone age all over again, it's a vicious circle.

The trick isn't to clean the board and start over, it's to learn to actually read what is written on the board in the first place.

Yeah. But only as long as you can't actually blow up the whole board, thus ensuring no one can start over. However, I'm pretty sure we won't be capable of wiping the planet permanently clean of life anytime soon.

It's been tried before, by a Giant Rock From Space among other things. Not as easy as it looks.

Mostly cause the rest of the world doesn't see it your way and violently objects.

I always liked Terry Pratchett's theory that life possesses an unknown element called 'Bloodimindium', and regardless of how hard you try, it'll just keep coming back

When I read the title, the first image I got in my mind was Gordon Brown.

i think the worst parisite on the planet is probibly homo sapien

Your gimmick has been boring for the last 3 years and doesn't seem to go anywhere.

[Locutus of Borg]

not to mention necrothreading?

[General Battuta]

Less than a month is not necrothreading. Chill!

This has got to be the worst parasite in the world by far: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candiru
Although I'm not 100% sure if all the stories about it are true, wikipedia doesn't seem to think so, if any one of them is then ...

[Colonol Dekker]

Although lurid anecdotes of attacks of humans abound, there is only one documented case of a candiru entering a human orifice.[7] One popular myth was that the fish was capable of swimming up a man's urine stream in mid-air to enter the urethra, though this is actually impossible.

I'm happy with that statement. My pee-pee will remain unviolated should i ever find myself trying to fend of pirannhas and alligators in the Amazon.

[stuart133]

Yeah maybe not in mid air, but if you are peeing in the water it can still swim up their. Also it has rearwards facing spikes so it cannot be pulled out and it mashes up the inside of your urethra.

[Colonol Dekker]

If it made inside my bio-system, the alcahol content would kill it. So i'm not bothered

[Thaeris]

Or...

It doesn't, gets a beer gut, sits about all day and is generally lazy... not to mention irritable and prone to drunken violence.

...All this in your trousers...

[Colonol Dekker]

Long or short of it (no pun) It's really not likely to happen to me.

If it did, i would become

Spoiler:

ROBOCOCK

that's all..

[stuart133]

Um, I see.
Well moving swiftly on ...

Only if the person is in the water when relieving themselves.  Clarification, as that seems kind of unclear.
