Conspiracy theories


i know you must think I'm some sort of nerd who sits at his computer all day and talks about how the government is trying to suck our minds out (I think this is a pretty good description).------------>

but hear me out for a few minutes and let me start with my first theory. Ok........... You know those television shows where the kids in it are somehow more clever than the adults? It goes something like this. The adult victim doesn't like kids and does something that is unmoralish. Like try to replace a park these kids play in with a some sorta factory, or he just wants to have it shut down. In the second senario, the child hater does something to a kid, like because he found some sorta radio-active dinosaur egg that if rubbed 11 times counter clock-wise can predict the weather and give you a cookie....I'm getting a bit too unrealistic here am I?.... Well.... The guy steals a item a kid found that can make you rich and famous and claims he was the one that found it. Moving back to senario #1 the kids are probably bummed out, and the owner, who is probably a poor, charity giving, kid lover, is having a hard time trying to let go of this place because it was his home, or the only thing he has left after his wife died, or seeing the children happy was the thing that kept him going in his fight for aids (a very unlikely senario but I'm trying to make make the guy look like a saint here). So the kids team up to save the park. So they magically get around his security systems (using their kid instincts and resources), find out something about him (like some criminal record he managed to keep hidden for years), tell the cops about it, have him go to jail, and the park is safe from destruction. ICE CREAM FOR EVERY ONE!!! Moving on to the second senario you can pretty much know what's going to happen. He plays tricks on him to ruin his career and has everyone know that he was the one who found the item. Then the guy gets thrown in jail, the kid gets rich and famous, and everyone lives happily ever after while the elves, dwarves, and gnomes, dance around singing jolly good ol' day. The thing is, it is so unlikely for these senarios to come out in real life situations if a park was to be closed down, and the kids tried to get the guy to go away, they go into the house and BAM! EURROOOO! EURROOOO! EURROOOO! Kid #1: what happened?! Kid #2: the security systems gone off!! Kid#3: how?! You used your spoon and glasses to relocate the lasers so that we could get in just like that movie we saw!! Kid #2: I know!! I don't know why it isn't working!! *SLAM* guy who's ganna tear down the park: who are you?! What are you doing here?! Kids: RUN FOR IT!!! Security guards come in and grab the kids. Then the kids get sued for trespassing and become poor on the streets while the park is being torn down. That is a more realistic story and in the second one.... Same thing. And do you know why people broadcast this? Because this was what happened to them. They got a huge logic slap in the cranium because they were copying T.V and found out in Hollywood, anything can happen, even the magic leprechaun can fly down the rainbow and give their gold to the poor children in Zimbabwe. So the cycle gets repeated because the children copy the T.V as well and do the exact same thing.

that was conspiracy theory #1, #2 is just as bad, this concerns video games. Why do you think there are no revolutions in Japan? Just tell me...... I'll tell you why.... They have video games. Now I love video games don't get me wrong. What I don't like are repetitive games (games where you do the samething over and over for either a really short or long while). You see the Japanese government is smart they know that it's worthless trying to win the hearts of the old people, there old, they'll end up kicking the bucket in about 5 more years any way. The adults? o.k choice, but all they do is work and raise kids all day, they're just the worker ants, pack mules, pawns in a chess game. Nope in a government, you have to focus on the kids. Think about it, the kids are the future, control the kids, you control the future control the future you have a get out of jail free card in your pocket. So to brain wash them into doing whatever they want, they have them play video games. No I'm not meaning that they want them to rot their brains and have them be dipwads, they no use as brainless zombies. It's repetitive video games that are the key. If a kid does the exact same thing over and over and over and over and over and over he'll be a single minded person who finds joy in doing things over and over like factory working. He'll be a guy who gets up, eats breakfast, goes to work, eats lunch, gets back to work, goes home, enjoys a few things on his spare time, goes to bed, repeat. Never questioning what his government is doing or why his life is like this. That's it, you've created your own mindless pack mule who does work out of pure choice and doesn't even care. That's why the U.S.A is translating games that are repetitive. Their trying to do the same thing. And it's working.

in conclusion... Don't play repetitive video games and don't watch baby cartoons. It'll help you, your family, and your friends. This is must signing out

Spore

There have been a few games that I truly have been waiting to come out while drooling over the things that it has. Black and white 2 was one of them, the game was some-what of a disappointment since it took like 3 years to make and they managed to create a game that could take an experienced gamer about a week to finish, i.e a bench warmer for other big R.T.S (real-time-strategy) games. Spore is another big one, it's basically evolution in game form. You go from the single-cell organism pac-man like 2D game, to the creature-adventurer 3D game, to the tribal game, to the city-builder game, to the conquest game (take over the world), to the civ game (take over the solar system and interact with other civilizations from other worlds from other solar systems). Now the release date on this game is still unknown, the developer said it will come out this fall, and some say it will come out as late as June 2007. However, I can take a gander that it will come out either late (I mean pretty late, like December) 2006, or early (between march and may) 2007 so I'm guessing between December 2006, and may 2007. I just hope spore does a good job on the game on not on the advertisement like black and white 2.

A Comic Finished

I am finally done with the Black and White: The origin of Tyke comic. All in all, I'm pretty proud of it and think I did a pretty good job. When Vahid and I went through it, he jumped with excitement (especially at the part where Nemesis, an evil god, laughed maliciously). Believe it or not, this is based off a true story with a few twists in it. For those of you unfamiliar with black and white, it is a strategy game where you are a god trying to survive the most powerful of god's onslaught to become the only god, nemesis. While doing this you have a choice of being a good or evil god. You also raise a creature (vahid chose an ape I chose a cow) which look like their animal counter parts except they grow to be very tall, are bipedal and perform these miracle spells (they can be good or evil too). This came with an expansion pack called creature isle. In this, you and your creature raise this creature called tyke (cue the lightning strike and evil laughter). Now vahid and I choose a good life-style all the way around (good creatures and good alignments), and inorder to do that you pretty much have to watch a bunch of 5 year-olds (creature included). I mean really, all you do is cater to a bunch of babies who don't know how to take care of themselves. You have give them food or else you're evil, you have to give them wood or else you're evil, you have to give them homes or else you're evil, you even have to make them, I kid you not MAKE THEM breed. Really, you have to put a guy over girl (or visa versa) and he/she will breed. Your creature is just as bad. If you don't watch him every single second of his life, he will eat a villager (this counts as an act of evil). I of course wanted a good creature so I was stuck watching my creature, and when he got hungry I would give him grain (the good food). The biggest problem was, when he ate a human he would some how think of them as a food source (even though he only ate like 3 people) and when ever he would get hungry, he would eat a human, this attributes more to the fact that it is like watching a 5 year-old. In fact it's almost like a real human you get tired of eating the same thing (grain) and love to eat the things that you aren't aloud to (human). But once they reach a certain age they become what you've wanted them to be. Now in black and white creature isle your creature's fathering abilities are put to the test (my creature gets a f-). That's pretty much what tyke is, a son for your creature and only he can punish or reward him. So tyke naturally ate humans (nearest food source) this only added to his evil points. While I was doing a quest in the game a evil gorilla was burning a house (part of the mission) he use a lightening and fire miracle. Now tyke was smart, infect he was the smartest creature in the game, this meant that he could learn miracles faster than any other creature (he ended up getting to about 75% which was just enough for him to learn the miracle completely). To be honest it didn't upset me that much. What did upset me was when I was trying to augment my creature's power through fighting other creatures. And as I was half way done I heard the game whisper deaaaaaaattttthhhhhh I knew something was but I didn't know what, not even looking at Satan in the eyes could have prepared me for the utter shock was awaiting me. There was tyke burning my temple with a fire ball miracle and killing my worshipers with a lighting miracle. ME: HOLY CRAP! WHAT IN THE HECK IS HE DOING?! (click creature to tyke so that he can punish him) ME: this'll get tyke in trouble. (cow looks at damage...... Looks at tyke....... And dances with him) ME:WHAAAAAAAAAAAT???!!! I couldn't believe this, my creature was reenactment the emperor Nero episode. (everything is in fire, and I'm stuck watching my creature dance with tyke). So I did what every player would do in a time like this. I reset it. And I never played that game again. Now of course vahid was watching in the same awe and amazement that I went through. Because he was playing this game and what would probably become of his tyke, he never played creature isle. Now vahid has a arch nemesis list like kip form a cartoon called fosters home for imaginary friends or a game like sigma from the megaman X series. He also had nemesis on there. Tyke then eventually moved his way to that list. And I though it would be cool/funny if tyke joined nemesis betrayed me and so that is what this comic is for, a salute to the evilness and utter disgust that is tyke. This is mustafa ghassemi, signing out.
