Time of the month.

Oh sorry, is this a secret?

No lol, just DM keeps getting mentioned... this is the sort of thing they want.

In the empirical sense, true.



Start a thread, cite your passages, and let's go.

Caveat: I am busy at work (believe it or not), so my responses may be delayed.

lol yes! i'm at school too so I apologize if I am delayed as well.. I'm giving my state of the union address in roughly 64 minutes!

Again, it's not necessary for a living person to live, but it does have its uses, including strengthening your immune system - For instance, the appendix produces cells that fight off infections and other diseases. If someone without an appendix contracted an illness, they're more lilkely to succumb to it. But if someone were to get contaminated with an illness and had an appendix, they're better equipped to live through it as having an appendix increases your odds of survival tenfold.

I don't have a clue, so DM is Judge and Swordfishman......

As for the appendix, it's crucial for having a strong immune system as it functions as a filter for infections, bodily poisons, etc - Rather than discount it, you'd do well to learn things for yourself and not parrot anyone.

So the key here is to read books, then parrot what they say instead? Thanks, I had no idea!

I'd debate on the actual necessity of the appendix, even though I have been aware that it has some use with the immune system (as well as a function for developing fetuses which for some reason you didn't note later on. Shame on you for not using every possible tactic for proving others wrong!) but I'm sure your understanding of the universe is actually so perfect it only looks like crazy babble to the rest of us mere mortals.

Oh Darkmaster, if only one day I could manage to develop the all-knowing yet beautifully contemptuous tone you've managed to achieve when speaking with others.

I'm mystified that some of you keep on calling me DarkMaster seeing as I've barely joined this site yesterday - But whatever makes you happy.

I'd have more respect for you if you'd just admit that I elegantly disproved your points - But of course that might be too much to ask from you given how volcanic you seem. At any rate, I was just providing you with the chance to learn - I'm blessed with a very nimble mind and I like to give the unlucky ones a chance to profit off it anytime they interact with me.

It's ok though - Admitting we were wrong is one of the hardest things to do in life. Still, you'd do well to not erupt on a person who's just bestowing you with help.

Your respect is far above me oh lord. Naturally we all know you're the most brilliant mind on the internet, however many times you may forget your name.

[bluetoon]

Last day of work this week then off for 4 days, 3 of which I have plans for already.

[TheSwordEdge]

Interesting. But I'm still not Darkmaster, no matter how much you try to conflate me with him. The mods are in agreement with me or I'd be banned from the forum.

Why do you always have to address me by that title?
