as that of my ancestors thousands of years back

as in a random absolute rule set out without any reason.
radan: there's no need to raise a kid
as a father per se in obama's america
Namworld: You said it was important to be manly and fearless to get girls, yet seemed confused
as how to date in modern society. Your personality doesn't fit the modern culture. You say the culture is bad. Perhaps that is true, but you've given no justifications to it. Just that it doesn't fit you.
Namworld: For one who said there is no purpose, you sure are quite obsessed with race. For one who said how being manly and fearless and getting girls is important, you sure seem afraid and lost

Namworld: If you offered me immortality, I'd be scared of it. Scared of being left alone in darkness for eternity
as the Universe dies.
Namworld: I've said
as long

Namworld: To live.
As long
as possible. Surefire way of ensuring your genes' survival.
Namworld: It doesn't matter if the whole of humanity doesn't work together. Humanity isn't a damn ant colony. Why would it work together

as anything weak
Namworld: The life in nature is a very cruel one, radan. Humans can be just
