And theres a few other things I love that would get me banned from the forums for talking about.

But, as I said, not enough cat-people.

 

[Alphavillain]

I love most things so much that I'm disappointed when other things just don't (or won't) match up. So I have to talk about them. Which makes me look like a miserable bastard.

But right now I love it when a shy young woman puts a hand in front of her face when she laughs; and the sound of waves on the nearby beach as I lie in bed.

I love the world, and it hurts me to see that people are killing it.

 

[The_ModeRazor]

And here I come, with a sharp object in my hand, ready to destroy your bubble of illusion.
Ah well...
I do not dislike the world. Much.

 

[Lemon Of Life]

The world is awesome

Looks like someone is navigating the forums while high again

Sure is better than looking at the negative side of things all the time. Zombiejoe, you smoke that joint. Make it last.

The world is indeed, a pretty good place.

In certain parts of the world.

I've lived a good life. I had parents who loved me, showered me with attention, paid attention to me, helped me at every opportunity, taught me, educated me and showed me the wonders of science and the natural world. I have been given the opportunity to think about so many wonderful things, like space exploration, history both modern and ancient, biology, physics, chemistry and mathematics.

Because I never had to want for food or shelter or water or clothes or money, I was able to immerse myself in books and learn how beautiful and gigantic our world is (which is peanuts when compared to how big space is, but the Earth is still large from a human view-point).

But understand this - while the world might be wonderful for you and me, for some, it is considerably less awesome. You can't develop a healthy mental view of the world if you've seen your brother get his legs blown off from a landmine left over from a war that occurred 30 years ago. You can't marvel at the true beauty of the world if you spend every night drinking dirty water from a ground well and falling ill. You can't jump with joy at the beauty of science if a man from the Taliban is threatening to burn your face off with acid if you even TRY to go to school. Think about that - and I mean REALLY think about that point. Even though there are a lot of schoolgirls who realise their dream of becoming a scientist or a teacher or a musician, there's a few schoolgirls in Pakistan and Afghanistan who are currently blind and scarred for life because a religious fanatic decided that he didn't want "his women" getting too "educated" and decided to hurt them. REALLY THINK ABOUT THAT POINT FOR EVEN A FEW SECONDS.

Yes the world is wonderful. But so many people cannot experience that wonder. So many children NEVER have that opportunity.

So think about that. The good in this world, and there is a lot of good, is countered by the bad in the world, which we humans have to counter with science, humanism, kindness and development.

As Morgan Freeman once said in that rather disturbing movie Se7en: "The world is a fine place, and worth fighting for. I agree with the second part".

I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out.
I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich.
I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts.
I love that after I spend the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes.
And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.

I hate corny american movies though.

 

[Kriptonite]

Spoiler: XKCD to the rescue!

But yeah, the world does have some awesome things in it. There are reasons I'm fascinated by physics.

XKCD is pretty frickin' sweet. Kinda makes me think of Cyanide and Happiness.

[Video Gone]

Our world rocks!

I love all the grandiose variety.
I love all the nice people i can meet - and do meet!
I love videogames.
I love scientific progress.
I love snow.
I love blimps and zeppelins.
I love talking purple watermelons.
I love non-sequiturs.
And of course i love - [small]you could even say "obsessed with"[/small] - Lombaxes.

It's nice to live and love. Boom De Yada, Boom De Yada.

I like to see there is one person on these forums that is not on the verge of killing themselves. It is quite refreshing. That is what I love.

Agreed. Among all the "kewl and edgy" hate, misanthropy, cynicism...

[HEADING=3]...one man decided to stand up and see a rainbow in the sky. I salute him.[/HEADING]

People in this forum do NOT gravitate to killing themselves, contrary to popular belief. Well, I don't anyway.
Also, I saw a rainbow first. My. Fucking. Rainbow. I'm so edgy.
Seriously though, life is good. And not "Niiiiicoooooo, mah coooouuuzzzziinnnn, weeelcoooomeee toouuuu Americaaaaaaaa" good, because that turns out to be "de dreeaaaam." I mean awesome good.

I love the feel of grain,
Screams of a man in pain,
Blood coming down like rain,
Showering meeeee. OK, no Jason Steele references anymore.

I love sunshine,
I love amazing views,
I... messed up and can't think of any more lyrics, so I'll use the non-song version.

I love true love,
I love that people aren't so indivualistic that we can't still start conversations with strangers,
I love music,
And other stuff too. I just can't think of any more, because I'm too lazy.
