An Ideal World: one/two things it would not have

[cacian]

lists one or two things you would not have in your ideal world:biggrin5:




religions
politics

[loe]

An ideal world is a world that is non-existing. :)
Briefly speaking: the ideal world is the one we have full control about.

I am working on a project that intends to create a perfect world.
(Due to a lack of spare time progress is rather slow at the moment. However, if some one is interested, the link in my signature will lead to further explanations.)

1 Mortality
2 Skunk ganja from certain ripoff people who just lied and now won't answer their phone.

1) Monosexuality (as in either being hetero or homo) Everyoune should be bi.
2) Modernist and post-modernist architecture

I am afraid I could not agree with this one I am very happy being straight thank you.

2) Modernist and post-modernist architecture
It all depends on taste and so modern is not always appealing because it deos not bear the status that classic historical architecture does.


humans

I would not exempt everyone it takes all sort to make a life spin.

[LitNetIsGreat]

Just two? That's too hard. I've probably got a list of pet hates running into hundreds and hundreds.

pet hates! well actually some 'pets' should not be pets at all because they belong in the wild.
it does depends on which pets you are talking about haha.

[papayahed]

Wood Roaches
Olives

[Desolation]

1) Violence (war, murder, assault, rape, domestic abuse, etc)
2) Unnecessarily convoluted economic/legal systems

[hawthorns]

2. Corporate executives (modern day emperors) who own #1.

[Scheherazade]

Wood Roaches
OlivesBut, but, but I love wood roaches!

No, I mean I love olives!

As for me:

1. Stupidity

2. Cancer

[papayahed]

But, but, but I love wood roaches!

No, I mean I love olives!



Too late, I called it. I may be enticed to change my answer for a margarita or two....

[JuniperWoolf]

I don't think I'd do away with violence and death. Doesn't anyone else think that would be dull? Violence and death are a huge part of the whole spectrum of existance, and while we love to pretend we don't, you know part of us loves it. Imagine a story with no conflict, no thank you.


1) Monosexuality (as in either being hetero or homo) Everyoune should be bi.

Hah! Agreed, but so many people have such boringly concrete worldviews, don't they?

[LitNetIsGreat]

Is there any chance of a special dispensation licence to post more than two Cacian? If say I can narrow it down to a hundred or something? The first hundred that spring to mind.

[MANICHAEAN]

Let's see, off the top my head:

Politicians who say, "Let's be absolutely clear about this."

Adverts for countries and news channels that promote themselves. "Amazing Thailand," "Jamaica No Problem." There is inevitably a dark side, so tell it, even if you say it is a "challenge."

Nick Gowen on BBC News doing an imitation of a hawks talon.

Fox News period.

The daft expressions assumed by CNN presenters.

Death duties after you have spent a lifetime not being a burden on the State.

The X Factor, the Greatest Loser, Real Housewives of Orange County.

[cacian]

my word Neely what can I say it is everything I load apart from the bit which include people communicating. I do not mind people chatting or kids making some noises, apart from that I totally agree, let's get rid of it all haha...:p

Indeed and don't forget the Leveson enquiry random interviews and the corruption people. Let's say all cheap nasty papers they must go too!


How about three?

:D

:hurray:

I hereby change my answer to:

1) Wood Roaches
2) Tomato bugs

[Mutatis-Mutandis]

1. Crappy indie music.
2. Fromunda cheese.

[TheFifthElement]

1. Disrespect
2. Arrogance

[Whifflingpin]

hold on the minute can you say that again?

[cafolini]

I'll name the very one thing I would not have: an ideal world.

where is the great spirit cafolini surely not!!:p

[Revolte]

Clothes! (I'm serious, I can't even go on facebook anymore 'cause I got banned for being naked, why is that a big deal? They are my friends, they have all seen my naked now anyway so who is really winning that one?)

Slander!

[Basil]

I can't even go on facebook anymore 'cause I got banned for being naked, why is that a big deal?

Should this be translated as, "I posted naked pictures of myself on Facebook"?

It may be a cliché but great minds really do think alike. I have to agree with at least 90% of the list although there are a few things that seem questionable.

1. Cocky teenagers who know it all. Are there any other kind?

2. ADHD/ADD/ Oppositional Defiance Disorder and other such things.
I have never heard of this one but it sounds like another bit of liberal nonsense for kids who need a smack round the ear.

3. Yob culture is a contradiction in terms but I take the point. Unfortunately there are too many people making money out of it, the magistracy and the dumbing down brigade being just two of the groups involved.

[Revolte]

Yes. :aureola:


Still it's old news, they have all seen me naked, in real life? Am I supposed to be offended by what I am? God forbid I don't hate and hide myself..

Ha, ha yes I had not seen the oxymoron in the last one. I also agree with your points above. Oh, Kids who can't sit still for five minutes are now given drugs and their parents loads of cash - brilliant idea? :confused5:

[Paulclem]

Yes. :aureola:

In the Uk we call it flashing. I hadn't considered what effect the technical developments might have upon this expository practice, but digital flashing might take off.

To be fair it is called Facebook and not (Insert alternative body part) Book.

Also, do you say to people - "I got banned for being an a** on Facebook."? I'd be tempted to if it were me. :biggrinjester:

lmao, no but I snap shotted the "why what you did was wrong" notification, as well as the picture under it. So I'll have my revenge.

[Mutatis-Mutandis]

I decided to actually read that whole list Neely, and I must say I found it hilarious. There was one that really stuck out and made me say, "YES!" And that is the fat lazy people on mobility scooters. I hate that so much. As someone who actually uses a wheelchair because I need it, when I see some fatass on a scooter I want to yell at them, "Get up and walk you fat ****, it's what you need to do!" It's infuriating.

And with such a long list, I'm really surprised fromunda cheese isn't on there. How could it not be?

[Whifflingpin]

As commanded by Cacian
" Drums

Chocolate"

And I agree with Revolte - all power to his elbow etc.

Ha, ha, it's only part one (of many) but I don't want to take over the thread...

I have a funny but pretty bad story about a mobility scooter which I'll share at another time.

I just realized that Neely's perfect world resembles my grandma's living room.

[The Comedian]

The world would be vastly improved without these two things:

2. Shopping Malls

1. Golf

Shopping malls -- a crowded hallway filled with people selling crap they have no stake in (save a pay stub every second week) and people buying crap they don't need is one the saddest things that I have ever seen. Plus the stores there are just chain stores. You'd have thunk that that the internet would have put those hell-on-earths back into the inferno five years ago.

Golf -- how you corrupt us, let me count the ways:

you're an environmental atrocity (especially in the desert areas)
In the environmental atrocity, you function as a catalyst in which you turn total pricks into a$$holes to the 12th power.
you breed a festering elitism that nibbles at humility like a serpent licking an egg
you cast the illusion that riding in a cart, drinking beer, and smoking is a "sport"
you encourage men to dress like dopes and then wack their (golf) balls.


I could go on, but I'll leave it be. For now. . . .

How about a case of Pabst to take shopping mall off the list?? :brow:

I find them relaxing, It's so much fun trying on pretty things (not necessarily buying). Trying on hats and shoes and dresses takes my mind off work craziness.

[Mutatis-Mutandis]

I hate malls, too. I use to love then. Went to them a lot with friends when I was a teen. We'd rarely buy anything, just screw around and be obnoxious. Ironically, teens screwing around and being obnoxious is one of the reasons I now hate malls.

I'm ambivalent with gold, but I do love how the Masters tournament is treated like some sort of religious ceremony.

[Neo_Sephiroth]

Penises and vaginas.

So the men would look down and say "Dang! I ain't got nothing!"

And the ladies would look under and say "Dang! I ain't got nothing!"

Then they would both look at each other and say "Crap! We ain't got nothing!"

But they still end up making sweet, sweet love...And in the middle of doing the "thang" they would both say "Awww...We still have it..."

:thumbs_up

Isn't the whole thing ironic? You could go to a north atlantic slave labor camp driving range and still find the biggest egos on earth. Like knats to light bulb. Makes me want to say, "so.....what do you do for exercise / ever played a sport?" :lol:

Mutatis what is fromunda cheese? Is it one those cheese in a tube? haha.

[Pierre Menard]

I don't think I'd want an 'ideal' world in the common sense. I highly doubt any one truly does.


Although...arrogant new mothers would be the first up against the wall.

[Mutatis-Mutandis]

Mutatis what is fromunda cheese? Is it one those cheese in a tube? haha.

As defined by UrbanDictionary.com:


1. The residue and/or mud-like substance found in, under, and around the male genetalia as a result from neglect and uncleanliness.

Example:
guy 1 "ugh, what's that smell?"
Webster "that's fromunda cheese."
guy 1 "what the hell is fromunda cheese? where do you find that?"
Webster "FROMUNDA YA BALLZ!"
