Moonlapse Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 No, noooo, noooo. You just don't understand. It's somehow correct to assume the pride of accomplishents and the guilt of crimes of others that can somehow be associated with you... You see, if the cyborgs were good then you can totally make a claim on that, but if someone you don't like had bad cyborg descendants you have every right to hold it against them. In fact, they should apologize to you. Oh yeah, i forgot to mention that apologizing is good PR. That way you can twist associated guilt in your favor.

Pantagathus Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Lets work back shall we? I apologize for being a (mostly) 'white' American Southerner whose ancestors & forbearers no doubt are guilty of some kind racism and who took up arms against my Northern brothers in the American Civil War. I apologize for my ancestor William Whipple who signed the Declaration of Independence and helped Great Britain loose all this American territory and taxes. I apologize for being part Native American whose ancestors & forbearers no doubt made life difficult for the settlers & their neighbors. I apologize for being part Anglo-Saxon whose ancestors & forbearers no doubt made life difficult for some Celts & some Picts on the British Isles and who no doubt killed some Arabs during the Crusades I apologize for being part Irish whose ancestors & forbearers no doubt raided their neighbors in Albion and kidnapped St. Patrick I apologize for being the descendent of a Cro-Magnon who no doubt affected the demise of the Neanderthals & killed a lot of Mastodons too Ok, that should take care of a lot of it Oh, and one of you Neolithic Farmers better start apologizing for taking a hunter-gatherer's lively hood away!

Pertinax Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Im glad you got that guilt out into the open.Im not sure anyone actually noticed St Patrick had been stolen for a long time . And another thing "good cyborgs " are pointless- I mean what is the point of having enhanced laser-vision and being able to carry an aircraft standard gattling cannon if not to run around in designer shades blasting stuff?

Moonlapse Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Ahh now you are getting into technicalities. Since you are part Irish AND Native American, you should start slapping yourself while simultaneously wailing "I'm sorry!!!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I refuse to accept your apologies because I don't believe you are sincere, especially the part about the Mastodons. I mean if there's anything that all people can agree on its that those woolly bastards had it coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because they would be blasting the Martians, who are bad, relatively speaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because they would be blasting the Martians, who are bad, relatively speaking. I demure to your ruthless logic. Mastodons-what are they good for? absolutely nothing! Say it again. Wait a minute , no-one is taking this seriously -you are all using post-modernist irony! Edited April 4, 2006 by Pertinax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because they would be blasting the Martians, who are bad, relatively speaking. That's quite the stereotype there. You should apologize to Martians. I would also like to retract my previous statement about Mastodons and apologize for calling them bastards. I have no idea what sort of mating/heredity rituals they practiced.

Moonlapse Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 I hereby apologize for stereotyping the Martians, needlessly labeling them as 'bad' in order to justify their future obliteration from the galaxy by my cyborg descendants, with their laser vision, cannon arms and ray-bans.

Primus Pilus Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Hmm, after a few minutes to reflect on my harsh tone against Mastodons, in addition to apologizing for calling them bastards, should I also apologize for calling them woolly? Should I have said hair-enhanced or smoothness-challenged or something to that effect? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks guys, you've given me a hearty laugh here at the office. I'll expect an apology if there are any ramifications of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
