[Mythra]

I decided, I'll super smash $100 to get the Limited Edition Sailor Moon SH Figuarts to give it to myself as a birthday present, and then get the Splatoon Bundle a month later.

I went to class, only to find that classes were cancelled for the day. Why does no one tell me?

So, how are you people doing? How was the XCX Direct?

Not interested in the game so I didn't watch it. And I'm bored doing good!

 

[FalKoopa]

There was an earthquake in Nepal just now. Very minor tremors were felt here too.

I didn't really notice it, but some friends were freaked out.

It's decent, but don't come in expecting a boatload of new information.

Was it a really strong one at that? Talking about Nepal, of course.

7.9 on the Richter Scale. Apparently a few buildings have collapsed.

200cc is so fun. This has improved MK8 DRAMATICALLY.

Sonic amiibo will only make it so much better.

Wow. That stinks...

 

[Radical Bones]

I got 5 amiibos today. I have an addiction.

I got 5 amiibos today. I have an addiction.

My most wanted amiibos are Lucario and Rosalina.
For some reason, I always find a way to get screwed over when it comes to my favorite characters. >.>

 

[Saikyoshi]

I'm... not well today.

[collapse="Hidden for being disturbing and depressing"]I've been spending the whole day yesterday freaking out and crying over my own mortality.
Specifically, I've been thinking about the likes of Brandon Lee and Vic Morrow a lot, and how sudden and horrible the things that happened to them are.
I'm scared to death that something like that will happen to me. I'm almost certain that something like that will happen to me.

I impulse buy them when I see them. I'm still missing heaps of my favourites, but got Wario and Diddy today!

I can't find Rosa anywhere. Never even seen a lot of them in stores.

I want to say there's one guy to blame for that, but...I don't know if he actually received as many amiibo as he preordered.

You mean Mariotehplumber? Pretty sure he got blackmailed by Rosalina-fans to not do that.

Oh dear.

Take a sound rest if it's possible. Try to keep those kind of thoughts away -they will wreck your daily life you let them take over your mind.
Learn to relax. Take things are they come. Don't worry too much about the future. You can talk to any of the mods anytime, time zones aside. We'll try to help.

Really? That's funny.
But I thought it was already done.

 

[FlappyFalco]

Well, I've decided to change my name and begin a new life on these here boards. Today is my last day as @ FlappyFalco .

Don't get me wrong, Tyrogue are still cool Pokémon, and Hyrule would be a nice place to live, but it's time for me to be reborn a new man.


P.S If you can guess what I'm changing it to, you get a Prank. Hint: It's a reference to the first Social Thread, and anyone who's fought me online might have an idea.

Something to do with Miles Edgeworth?

 

[Luggy]

I'm putting the theme of a badass cyborg nazi here to say that I'm still alive.
And now I must go, my storyboards needs me.

 

[FlappyFalco]

Nope, good guess though.

 

[Saikyoshi]

Sometimes I just sit down and think, "who was that ****ing imbecile that shot the last dodo?"

I have no idea. I didn't join these boards until around the Second social thread.

 

[Kenith]

It's a lot more complicated than that I'm afraid, It's tragic and overhunting is horrible but there's no way they could have known...
At least back then.

 

[FalKoopa]

Well, environment wasn't really a concern back then. People did whatever they wanted.

Hunting was an extremely common sport among the higher classes.

 

[Silvera]

You wouldn't mind if I borrow one, would you?

 

[TheLastLugia]

23 Amiibo and counting for me, with the latest being Charizard. I need Ness, then I might take a brake. Might.

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

This just made my day.

I just hope someone pushes the de-extinction process to start already. There are ethical arguments against it, yes, but I believe it's far less ethical to let those beautiful birds be forgotten because of our stupidity.

Anyone who's talked to me for a significant amount of time knows how strongly I'm concerned with legacy and preservation. I hate seeing things get destroyed or lost. Since it's scientifically possible to reverse some of the damage we've caused, why haven't we done it already?!

De-extinction is a very slow process, and isn't easy either. I mean, it's like 10x harder than cloning, because we don't have a live sample to go off. Normally, a DNA contains millions of chains and a single mistake somewhere can deform the resultant creature. <Insert technical rambling here.>

I'm pretty sure it will become much more feasible in the future, but I don't think it will any time soon.

 

[Kenith]

I don't support de-extinction.
You all know why.

 

[TheLastLugia]

Could anyone here kindly provide me with a link or an explanation on how I would go about transferring my New 3DS' data on its 4GB micro-SD card onto a 32GB one I'm going to get soon? I don't think I'll struggle to much to do that, but I still have a problem as I have a 3DS game (Layton V Wright) stored on a separate SD card that I can't access, because whenever I try to transfer it onto my current 4GB one, it says I have to delete all data in order to do so. I can't play it on my old 3DS either, as I erased the data on that when I did the save data transfer. I haven't been able to find anything that helps me, so is there anyone here who's had the same problem?

I'm well aware of the sheer difficulty. However, it doesn't even seem like anyone's even started work on it, and on top of that, there's a time limit; the remaining nonliving specimens we have are undoubtably going to deteriorate into unusability if we wait too long.

So yeah... This is kind of important to me, and I want it to happen while I'm still young enough to be able to tell that it happened.

Clever girls...

De-Extinction? I think we should worry more about genociding mosquitoes and see how THEY like being extinct.

I'm bad at telling if people are joking or not. You're probably joking, but just in case you're not;
I wasn't kidding about the time limit. They've looked in amber before; even the DNA preserved as thoroughly as that is simply GONE.

It's a miracle that we still have a usably preserved specimen of wooly mammoth, since they vanished thousands of years ago... And dodos don't even have the benefits of amber or ice, so the timeframe we have with them is far, far shorter.

They ARE the #1 deadliest animal on Earth. I'm willing to be a hypocrite against them.

Of course I'm joking.
Having velociraptors roaming the Earth would be glorious.

Can we add cockroaches to that list of exceptions please?
Everything else is fine. But seriously **** them.

 

[Radical Bones]

So weird, I literally just finished Jurassic Park. Best fricken movie.

Contemplating whether or not I should now watch Lost World. The 12-year-old me loved it. I've watched it since... only to be somewhat disappointed. I don't mind JP3 though.

 

[Mr Snakey]

Extinction makes me sad... It frightens me that probably soon in the future, rhinos, pandas, and tigers may be gone. Just a memory for the future generations.

I like the Lost World, couldn't stand the third movie.

 

[FalKoopa]

Cockroaches are like relics. They appeared before the dinosaurs and even the worst extinctions haven't killed then. If nature itself couldn't get rid of them multiple times, I don't we puny humans can.

Mosquitoes can go extinct for all I care though.
