    A test isn't really necessary. Much to my dismay, I'm already acquainted with many of teh intarnet's misleadings. From Rick rolls to said goatse, two girls one cup, and various other 'horrors.' However...I'm obliged to click links as they appear. Such are Xz's teachings.

    You poor bastard. I'll have to have a crash team on standby for when mrnobodie makes his next periodical traumatisation visit.

    I await whatever comes with both curious anticipation and dread. Mainly dread.

    Well, last time he was here his link was rather innocent, I think that's what traumatised me the most really. Oh the sheer simplicity.

    So did I when it was first posted. Curiosity is a strong force.

    And stuff like that is why we DON'T CLICK THE LINKS.

    Well...I suppose that's why it's advised not to, and with utmost clarity. Yet I very much question my willpower thanks to the Xz's strength of curiosity teaching. On the subject of strength however, I'm not quite sure whether each image makes me more mentally resistant or merely kills part of my brain.

    Xz has already made more of an impact on my life than that other god *points up.* Thus, I conclude that he is the real one.

    I also click the links.

    I admit, that I most always read the links first, but I click them.

    This is the Teaching of the Great God Xz, Whom we Follow.

    Does that make you strong for resisting temptation or weak for eschewing experience?

    I don't think eschewing such "experiences" makes you weaker. :eek:uch:

    How come? That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger, or so I've been told.

    It may not kill me, but a few of my brain cells sure are taken out by that stuff. And not useless ones that were just lying around, either.

    "A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."

    ... meaning that those brain cells are useful only because you believe they are. It is an illusion. Only when you can see the world for what it is without flinching you will have attained enlightenment. If you have to sacrifice some prudish neurons then by all means go for it. Stop for nothing.

    I am not becoming a mindless zombie for you, DE. Go get your brainless minions elsewhere.
