"Nietzsche is dead"-God, 1900 AD

here's some more Nietzsche because he seems to be popular

"hope in reality is the worst of all evils, because it prolongs the torments of man"

YAY nihilism

"If God gives you lemons, you find a new god!" -- cookie for reference.

Though, I was quite the philosophical devil when I was younger. I shall quote one of my favourites.
"To live is to rejoice; to die, well, that just sucks."
Yep, I was an interesting child...

"The only thing I know is that I know nothing."
-Plato, I think.
EDIT: It was Socrates.

How is that philosophy?
Well, I refuse to go into the philosophical implications, as it is too wordy for my taste. (I hate writing anything longer than a paragraph, HATE it.)

"Maybe during a war, instead of throwing a grenade at the enemy, you should throw one of those little baby pumpkins. And maybe when they see this baby pumpkin flying at them, they will stop fighting and consider how crazy and stupid war is. And while they are thinking and distracted, you can throw a real grenade."

I don't remember who said it, but it made me laugh.

Nietzsche disproved of nihilism. He said that only when nihilism is overcome can society reach the next level.

*Epic sigh* FINE, I'll elaborate. See, it is the phrase exclaimed when Stimpy nearly destroyed the universe, even though he did later anyways. The dilemma here is that it was exlaimed in a universe that never existed, seeing as Stimpy destroyed time. Why are you a bloated sack of protoplasm? You aren't; the bloated sack of protoplasm is a LIE. What makes this philosophical? What makes this philosophical is that my view on the existance of time/space in a quasi-linear system is profoundly unique. As is yours, and everyones you know.

I interpret this phrase as one with dual meanings, as after the button is pushed, a lamen (or uneducated child) would assume they got 'blown up'. When most biological compounds are 'blown up', there is a protoplasm remaining.(Scale of explosion determinable.) The sack of this protoplasm is the collapse of timespace onto this protoplasm, thus creating a 'bloated sack of protoplasm.

Love the avatar.
Of course you do.Everyone loves Oskar Schindler.
I love Liam Neeson.
*high five*Me too.Liam Neeson for galactic Emperor.
But Liam Neeson is too benevolent and warm-hearted (and young-looking) to be an emperor.

But perhaps he can settle for Ambassador of Earth?
But his voice can win the hearts of everyone.Even Max,by just saying good day.

"A witty saying proves nothing."
Now my favorite quote.

Anything in this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbI7gxxbYpo] video. It's Andrew Ryan's opening speech from Bioshock plus a lot of extra stuff (Which I don't think is even in the game).

Actually, Picnicface did both, but collegehumour hosted the second one, which is why it's not on picnicface's page. The testimonials at the end of the second one are all members of Picnicface. In order, they are: Bill Wood; umm, err... I don't quite know... it's either Brian Eldon Macquarrie or Andrew Bush; Mark Little, interrupted by Brian Eldon Macquarrie, Andrew Bush or Scott Vrooman (What? It's hard to tell, he moves quickly!); and then Mark Little again.

Edit: I know this due to my enjoyment of Picnicface so terribly much (yay Canadians!), but also my browsing of their website [http://picnicface.com/cast.php]
