[Helgoland]

(bumperstickers seen on the back of a truck in front of me on my way home)

I miss Robert E Lee

Lee surrendered...I didn't! *insert image of a soldier carrying a Confederate flag here*

I want a bumper sticker "We did it before, we can do it again."
Either with a reference to the Union during the Civil War or to the Franco-Prussian War of 1871

I posit a blank white T-shirt with a union flag on the back.

Underneath, in nice, tiny, trim letters it says: "We Won."

I would pay for that. I'd need to pay cash, though, because I would probably turn up in a day or two, full of buckshot.

[Jervill]

But...you live in a Union state!

I know, I know.  I see Confederate flags here in Minnesota, quite a long ways from any of the slave states and they become more common the further south (and east) a person goes.

[Sirus]

I live in California, which was never a slavery state, yet you still sometimes get guys with Confederate flags on their bumper stickers

[penguinofhonor]

Haha, Kentucky. A union state. Our tea party was the one that produced those "Yup, I'm a racist!" shirts.

This, so much.


For what it's worth, we were actually one of the border states. That is to say, a slave state that didn't secede prior to April 1861. IIRC, both Maryland and Kentucky never seceded at all. Doesn't mean there isn't a full helping of The South Will Rise Again, though, not by a long shot.

"I love fucking Aliens!"
- a friend of mine who clearly needs the value of word order explained to him.

[Darvi]

You sure? He could have been talking about fetishes.

[Flying Dice]

Sounds perfectly plausible to me. Whatever floats your boat.

[kerlc]

You sure? He could have been talking about fetishes.

now that you mention it, he does have an incredibly bizzare obsession with collecting Xenomorph figurines and putting them in strange poses all around his room...

[Loud Whispers]

I once said "The last thing I ever want to do is die".
I thought it was entirely valid as my friend face-palmed. We all have slow moments.

I want to live longer than I probably will (i.e. 110 at best, in all likelihood) and age more slowly, but I still want to die, in the end. Living forever would really begin to suck.

I for one would rather enjoy the honour of being able to witness the heat death of the universe along with everything in between.

"Back in my days..."

[MaximumZero]

I would be okay with living until the heat death of the universe. That would give me a lot of time to stockpile power, money, and scientific knowledge.

Also, I could facepunch whole generations of people! How freakin' cool would that be?

[Sirus]

I'd be all for the power, money, and knowledge thing

[Graknorke]

I'd be fine with just the knowledge.

That would, in my eyes, be the ultimate achievement. Being able to collect and compile a database of all information in the universe ever.
