    The world is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you choose to go on
    it, you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride
    goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very
    brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people
    have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question, is this real,
    or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to
    us, they say, "Hey - don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just
    a ride..."
    And we... kill those people.
    "Shut him up."
    "We have a lot invested in this ride. Shut him up. Look at my furrows of worry.
    Look at my big bank account and my family. This just has to be real."

    Just a ride. But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, you
    ever notice that? And let the demons run amok. But it doesn't matter because:
    It's just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice. No
    effort, no work, no job, no savings and money. A choice, right now, between
    fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy
    guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead, see all of us as one.
    Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take
    all that money that we spend on weapons and defences each year and instead
    spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it
    would many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore
    space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.

    Why are the spambots all of a sudden posting philosophies?

    That was clearly a message.
    And you.
    All of you.
    I shall be your avenging angel.
    I will show you the clarity of which you all seek.

    Well, I think it's now safe to assume he's not a spambot. SOrry about that. But what the fuck is up with the philosophy stuff?

    Yes. Nobody calls me Frido and lives. :p

    Besides, he's an idiot with all that fake philo stuff.

    Edit:
    Hey, if his IP address is something like 81.183.74.xxx, I know who he is, don't report him or anything; he's a cool guy, only he likes to play pranks and vandalise my homepage.

    Welcome back, Hellbokos. Frigo, it's not the guy who's been editing your page, I got two PMs from him:

    [EDITED OUT CONTACT INFORMATION, IF YOU ARE A STALKER AND WANT TO FIND ME, JUST PM ME OR ANY MEMBER WHO WAS SAVED THE INFO.]

    :)

    Suddenly, all this philosophy stuff turned interesting. And funny.

    Hellbokos, are you really this bored after getting banned? At least your posts are getting more amusing.

    Hmm. The grammar on the last sentence is a bit off...
    Honestly, I can't find this funny, due to the date of the member's induction, as well as what happened on said day five years ago.

    Hllekboso, please make sure you hunt me down too after you've finished with Mathboy:

    My name is Alexander Orosz (Orosz Sándor Zoltán, altough Zoltán has no equivalent in English)
    My address is Kerekeskút 17, Budapest, Hungary (1171 is the postal code in case you need it...):
    http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&z=18&ll ... 9&t=h&om=1
    (yes, that brown thingy on the middle of the screen)

    In case you don't find me home, that's probably because I am at school: ELTE, Eötvös Lóránd Tudományegyetem (Eötvös Lóránd University, Faculty of Science):
    http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&om=1&z= ... 007317&t=h
    (nice one, eh? ooooh, and state funded!)

    Here is my timetable, I don't want to trouble you with searching an appropiate time to kill me:
    http://www.hardwareoc.hu/forum/index.ph ... st&id=1015
    (remember, times are GMT+1. yeees, I almost forgot, keep an eye on daylight saving time!)


    In case you arrive at my home, and accidentally I'm not there, but in my school, please go to the train "station":
    http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&om=1&z= ... 003659&t=h
    Get on a train (that is going to the right if the houses are behind you) and please travel to the terminal point, Keleti Pályaudvar (~East Station):
    http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&om=1&z= ... 007317&t=h
    Take a subway (you can find the station easily, it is marked with a big red M letter or a white M letter on red background) to Blaha Lujza tér (Blaha Lujza square):
    http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&om=1&z= ... 007317&t=h
    And from there, take tram 4 or 6 until the station called "Petőfi híd, budai hídfő" (Petőfi bridge, Buda side bridgehead):
    http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&om=1&z= ... 007317&t=h
    You are very near! All you need now is to take the road that is called "Egyetemisták Parkja" on the map (University students' park; the left one on the map) and you are at the university!
    As for the classrooms (see above on my timetable; É means északi, or north, D means déli, or south building), ask somebody around where are they. I'm pretty sure they'll understand your need to kill me and will give directions.

    In case you arrive at school, and I'm not there (be sure to check properly, the school is very big!), the journey back to my home is pretty much the same (in reverse order and direction, of course), except you will need to ask when the train leaves from Keleti Pályaudvar to Rákoskert. Just say you want to kill a man. I'm pretty sure they'll be eager to help.

    Bah, pay me no mind. I'm just pissed that I can't join the armed forces.

    Sorry, they don't accept suicidal, anti-American maniacs who just want to throw a grenade into his commanding officer's tent.

    They also don't readily accept those who enjoy shaving their testicles over the mess hall's main course, which is why I'm not a member.

    And here I thought fragging was a time-honoured American pastime...

    But (to quote the Gross) bah (there it was) I prefer machineguns anyway.
