I know why the base was called that. :) Everyone on this base is some sort of social misfit. It all depends on your definition of "social". No one ever "fits" in anywhere anyway, at least not perfectly. that's what makes society so interesting...but now I'm getting existential..ah well. :) > Basically, we decided that we were really social misfits--relative > to this base at least. You see, what you expect here is a bunch of people > talking about hacking, drugs, lewd sex acts, and violence. Really? Hmmmm. I never expect to see that in the message bases as much as I would on the channels. :) >However, we're pretty normal *grin* Are we now? I don't think we are at all, not all of us anyway. > (SEX, DRUGS AND ROCK. FUCK THE POLICE! SID LIVES! HAND ME THAT BONG!!!) Sex blah, drugs are and interesting topic, never liked rock, would rather not fuck the police, who's sid, and bongs...hmmmm. Bongs are really cool, pass the magic mushrooms. ;)
