Advertising has gotten a kind of aggressive I thought I'd never have to see in real life. From browsing deviantart to the "free" "games" you can "install" on facebook (and the eerie proclivity of those games to track your IP to figure out EVERYTHING ELSE ANYONE HAS EVER DONE WITH THAT COMPUTER and advertise "accordingly"), to those wildly ( Read more... )

worlds, finals, advance wars

I dont wanna think about it! It would be terrible and never work, especially if the conceptions are powered by... themselves. If they're not you confuse me more.

Modern conceptions/gods are always the coolest ideas. Have you read American Gods? You should, it has copious amounts of god-puns.

I guess American Gods is what I should read next. I get told to read fewer things more than that. It's not a graphic novel, is it? And it's just one book?

Not a graphic novel, just one book. You'll like it a whole lot if I know you at all, even if its not Gaiman's best work. (In my opinion.)

I agree entirely about corporate culture! But I guess I don't count, because I'm (metaphorically) huddled in the basement with a tinfoil hat and eight hundred day's worth of canned peas.

Whoever got the concept of victory on their side would win.

There's a TV show on right now called Whale Wars, and I'm pretty sure they go out in badass boats and catch people whaling and beat them the FUCK UP. Their web page has a picture of someone logging a molotov cocktail at a whaling ship.

I sort of guess that's how war on war would be. You'd go out and find people who were causing war / participating in it, and beat them the FUCK UP, kill their leaders, disable all their weapons, etc. etc. Except you're not trying to win at anything except disarming everyone who would be at war. Severely disarming them.

Sort of like on the UFO Files, whenthose guys saw a UFO and it disabled all their nukes.

I've always thought of corporations as the first memetic organisms. In that they use memes like we use genes.
