Continuing on from the good news bad news forum which was locked, (As it was my fav forum on this site):
Good news: You like bad news when it's about other people! Evil cackle
Bad news: You aren't watching where you're going and trip on a rock, scraping your knee. I'unno...
Good news: while you're in the dirt you find a diamond. Btw sorry for the double post, I'm on an iPod>_>
Good news: while you're in the dirt you find a diamond. Btw sorry for the double post, I'm on an iPod>_>
Good news: there aren't any vampires nearby.
Eh, ignore mine.
Bad News: You found the diamond on Mafia turf and the 'collectors' are on their way.
Good news. Prepare for run-on.
Your long-lost brother from whom you have been estranged from birth turns out to have inherited the Mafia "Don" position from the late Mafia head who was killed in a turf war, so when they haul you in for the diamond and are about to be killed, your brother realizes it's you at the last possible second and knocks aside the gun, saving your life.
:D I love that cliche stuff
Bad news: You no longer have that diamond
Good News: Your estranged brother doesn't care an orders an italian feast in your honor.
Bad news: You're more partial to Russian food (AHAHAHA!) than Italian food...
Good News: The cook can make Russian food instead of Italian.
Bad news: this offends the Italian mafia guys, and they order your death because of it.
Bad news: He's kinda pissed as well and decided to support the hit- he never liked you anyway.
Good News: you have a remote detonators planted all over the place and you hold the switch which just so happens to be a 'dead man's' switch.
Bad News: One of the mob guys is a demolitions expert and knows it's fake.
Good News: You lit a stick of dynamite, dropped it and ran for it while he was checking.
Bad News: You're in unknown territory without any form of navigation, GPS or otherwise.
Good News: There's a police station right across the street.
Bad News: The police are all out getting doughnuts and the door is locked.
Good news: A squad car is pulling up after having finished their donuts.
Bad news: It's not being driven by the police, it's being driven by ghosts
Good News: The ghostbusters are here with working proton packs and are more than happy to help you.
Bad News: The ghosts turned into zombies and eat the Ghostbusters, proton packs included.
Good News: STARS send in their top team (minus traitors) to help you.
Bad News: They get sucked up into a suspiciously convenient pit of quicksand and now you're getting sucked in too.
Good News: The quicksand turns out to just be a collapse in the ground that leads to an underground civilization that welcomes you with open arms.
Bad News: They're cannibals.
Good news: They have a lick of you and decide that you taste horribe - It's all that bad luck, it's bad for your skin.
Bad News: The giant mutated lizards they use as slave laborers are too hungry to care.
good news: The STARS team is still here with you and they fight off the mutated lizards.
Bad news: Those STARS members are dropping like flies.
good news: The last guy is the star of the latest Resident Evil game and his luck form the game followed him and he just took down the last of the lizards.
bad news: you're still stuck in an underground locale, with no visible way of escaping.
Good news: You find a bottle labelled 'Drink me' so you do because, lets face it, what have you got to lose? Well, instead of shrinking, you float up up up, through the quicksand and to over ground! You land in a tree.
Bad news: The bottle was filled with hallucogenic drugs and you go on a psychedelic trip.
Good News: The trip was quick and lasted only a matter of less than five seconds.
Since it was all a trip, you didn't actually float up. You're still stuck underground.
Good News: You simply ask the cannibals who don't want to eat you, how to get out and they point you to the door leading back to above ground.
Bad news: The cannibals have a horrible sense of direction, and point you in the wrong one.
Good news: There's only one wrong door and it's just a brick wall behind said door. Process of elimination, and you find the way out.
Bad news: there are a helluva lot of stairs.
Good news: The cannibles installed a stannah stair lift for you to ride.
Bad news: it breaks down and there's still a helluva lot of stairs to go
Good News: You find a teleportation device and warp outside. (My first good news. Interesting.)
bad news: the warp to the outside? It lead to the rest of the tribe of the cannibals... and they're hungry.
(hehe this is fun)
Good news: The remaing STARS team member takes them all down in one go.
Good news: They don't think you look very tastey
(Wow- that's the first good news I've gotten since the middle of the last forum!)
Bad news: You trip and fall into some seasoning, so now they do think you look tasty.
Good news: They're all allergic to the very seasoning you fell into and just being in your prokimity causes them to go into anaphalectic shock (I hope I spelled that right).
Bad news: one of them wasn't allergic, and he was the hungriest of all.
Good News: Last STARS team member takes him down easily (I think I was overruled on 49 and 50 took it's place)
Bad news: So... You're with a STARS team member... And you haven't got a clue where the f*ck you are.
Good News: There's a map on the floor that someone conveniently dropped and now you know how to get out.
Bad news: The map is actually one of Middle Earth, and thus is useless to you.
Good News: The exit it turns out, is right in front of you and you finally leave the canabillistic dungeon world.
Bad News: You're now at the bottom of the ocean, the STARS team member has drowned already, and Aquaman is coming to get you.
Good news: Aquaman is coming to get you (to help you out).
Good NEws: Aquaman is straight and takes you to the surface.
Bad news: Jaws just happens to be lounging about the surface, and descides you look tastey.
Aquaman convinces Jaws to leave you alone and you safely arrive at a port in New York.
Bad news: This being New York, you're instantly mugged by some street punks.
Good News: This also being New Yokr means there's spider-man who's passing by and takes down the muggers before they can do any serious damage.
Bad News: Spiderman and Aquaman have a long-running unspoken rivalry and immediately get into an epic battle that you're stuck in the middle of.
Good news: You manage to get away before you're seriously hurt.
Bad news: You escape by jumping back into the water, where Jaws is still hanging out.
Good News: The heroes realize they need to stop the senseless fighting and get you out of the water to a safe part of New York.
Bad News: You are unfortunately run over by a randomly-generated double decker bus.
Good news: The money you get when you sue for damages makes you a millionare (wasn't this guy a millionaire at the beginning of the last thread?)
(yes he was actually. And no I'm not doing bad news, I strictly believe only in good news).
Bad news: it's put all over the newspapers that you're a millionnaire... so now your evil ninja daughter knows where you live.
Good News: Here twin brother is also a ninja but is the kind son who is more than willing to help you out of the goodness of his heart and love for his family.
Good News: It turns out he faked his death so his evil sister wouldn't know about him and he's very much alive.
Bad news Now the world thinks he's dead so he loses all his money and is now a broke, homeless person.
Okay, I'm totally lost here and have no idea what's going on since i haven't read the original thread.
(You don't really have to. Just start at the beginning of this one and you'll do fine. On a side note, doesn't this thread sorta read like a chapter of Axe Cop? Someone should get on putting this into a more aesthetically pleasing epic comic format.)
Good News: He doesn't need money to be a good ninja and kills his evil twin and gives you a big hug because you're his parent and he loves you.
(can we end this here, I like this ending...so sweet, so touching)
bad news: I'm his dad and never wanted him to be a ninja and I liked his twin better so I kicked him out of the house and told him to get a real career (not that being a ninja isn't awesome and all but as his father, I want him to be a lawyer or a doctor)
Good news: you were just in a bad mood and take him back in, because he's your son and you love him, admittedly more so than the other twin ever since the other twin turned evil.
Bad news: you hurt his feelings deeply, so he is now very, very angry at you.
(I find it amusing how our man is so unlike Dr McNinja's parents, wanting his son to be a doctor/lawyer instead of a ninja.)
Good News: You manage to make it up to him by buying him, his own personalized dojo.
Bad news: it is over-run with space monkeys.
Good news: He defeats the space monkeys and makes them his obedient minions for life. (and how the heck did I become the dad? I forfeit the title!)
Bad news: The Wicked Witch of the West likes the space monkeys better than her flying ones, and decides to steal them.
good news: The monkeys don't like the witch so they drop a house on her and go back to our main character (btw, what is his name?) and bring the flying monkeys along with them who also become life long minions to our yet-to-be-named-as-far-as-I-know main character
Bad news: His name is Edward. That means he is constantly harrassed by delusional Twilight fans.
Good News: He has a jetpack he uses whenever he needs to escape a Twihard.
Bad news: A particualrly intense Team Jacob fan has stolen a jetpack to chase after and kill him. With a butcher knife.
Good News: Being only fangirls of twilight, they have no capability of using jetpacks and end up either blowing up on takeoff, or running into each other and stabbing themselves.
Bad news: He's a blonde and his voice is similar to Vic Minyana's so he's also chased by delusional and crazed Fullmetal Alchemist fans (including my sister)
Bad news continued: He's also chased by Ouran Host Club fans, Tsubasa fans, and the occasional Vampire Knight fan. Am I forgetting any?
Good News: Being fullmetal alchemist fans, they actually have no knowledge of real science and still end up either blwoing up or stabbing themselves (only responding to the first one).
Bad news: they blow themselves up right next to you
Good News: you're wearing super padding protective gear, protecting you from the explosion.
Bad news: in true cartoon style, because you were near an explosion, you are now covered in black dust.
Good News: It's magical black dust that can change villains into all around good guys.
Bad news: But it turns good guys into bad guys. Really, really bad guys.
Good News: It's only a temporary side affect that lasts for two seconds.
Bad news: In those two seconds Spiderman and Aquaman just happen to be there and they attack. It was super effective.
Good News: Again, it was only two seconds and now that the effects have worn off, they go about their seperate ways again
Bad news: Not only was their attack super effective, it also Paralyzed and Confused you.
Good news: some kindly person takes you to the hospital.
Good News: The pharmacy across the street has plenty and sending some over.
Bad news: The person carrying the antidote and paralyze heal is eaten by zombies before they get the stuff to you.
Good News: The hospital staff has training in dealing with zombies and manages to fight them off and goes to retrieve the medicine.
Bad news: the medicine has all been chewed by zombies.
Good News: An old man who waas eaten by the zombies dropped some of the very medicine you need and the medical team defeats all the zombies and retrieves the medicine.
Bad news: The medicine was infected, you take it and POOF you're now a zombie.
Good News: A priest blesses you and you turn back to regular human, no side affects.
Bad News: You find out the priest was a sham and he ran away with your million dollars. Now you're broke and infected.
Good News: The cops caught him before he got too far and brought a real priest who cured you.
Bad News: He was an inexperienced priest and accidentally mutated your T-virus infection into a G-virus one and there's no priest who knows how to cure that.
Good News: There are SCIENTISTS that can cure it and one of the happens to be right next to you.
Bad News: They are Umbrella scientists. They decide to lock you up and study the side effects of the G-virus in you.
Good NEws: The good gusy come in to save you and even give you a working cure, free of side effects.
Bad news: they now want you to work with them, giving the cure to all zombies. There is a 1 in 3,720 chance you won't get killed by angry zombies.
Good News: Even though you're completely cured with no side effects, a rare strand of G-virus still exists within you. Albert Wesker wants that strand so he kills all of the good scientists. You won't have to cure the zombies anymore.
(I guess this is both good AND bad news? hahaha...)
Bad News: Thanks to you not curing the zombies, the world becomes overrun with them and ends. Also, Albert Wesker is after your head since he found out you're useless to him.
Good News: The whole thing turns out to be a nightmare you had after fainting from winning the lottery that you wake up from, finding the winning lottery ticket in your hand.
(seriously, the zombies and Resident evil things were annoying the crap out of me).
(really? i thought it was pretty amusing lol)
Bad News: You were being incepted. You never won the lottery.
Good News: You forcibly kick them out and find yourself awake in your bed in your normal home.
Bad News: Captain Hook kidnaps you. Now you're stuck in an indestructable trash bag on a ship full of pirates.
Good news: Peter Pan rescues you from Captain Hook and his ship full of pirates.
Bad News: He drops you while you're flying back to your house over a Sharp Objects factory.
Good news: the Sharp Objects Factory is much accustomed to this sort of occurence, so they re-made their roof out of 6 feet deep mattresses.
Bad News: You bounce off the mattresses and go flying into the tar pit that's conveniently next door. You are moments away from becoming a fossil.
Good news: there's a guy with a hook on a long pole, hired by the tar pit owners for such an occasion, and he pulls you out.
Bad News: You're still covered in tar.
Good news: Lady Gaga sees you, and is inspired for her next outfit. She pays you a million dollars for the help.
bad news: That evil ninja daughter that hasn't been mentioned in awhile comes and steals that million dollars (like she has many, many times before).
Good News: Lady Gaga has a part time job as a ninja. She steals the money back.
Bads news: And then decides to keep it for herself, since she's Lady Gaga and crazy that way.
Good News: Lady Gaga gets hit by car and killed because she's a whore and you get the money back.
Bad News: A freak tornado blows through and there goes the money in your hands.
Good news: the house travelling in the tornado doesn't land on you.
Bad News: But a naked sumo wrestler does.
Goods news: By some freak occurence, the tornado backtracks and lifts the naked sumo wrestler back into the air just before he smooshes you.
Bad news: The backtracking causes the house to hit you anyway.
Good News: You have Kitty powers (from X-Men) and the house goes straight through you.
Bad news: the woman standing next to you wasn't so lucky, and you take a liking to her ruby slippers. Being the kelpto you are (or that I just decided to make you), you take the shoes, and now have to deal with the warth of the Wicked Witch of the West, who is pissed you stole her dead sister's shoes.
Good news: CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow steals the shoes away from you, so now her wrath is his problem.
Bad news: CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow manages to convince the Wicked Witch that you are the one who has the shoes, and she comes back after you, and this works because he's freakin' CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow.
Good News: The witch realizes that it was CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow that told her this and as we all know to never trust him, he most likely lied to save himself and now resumes chasing him.
Bad news: he's rather good at running away from people, and gets to the Pearl before they leave without him. The witch, deprived of her revenge on CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow, turns to you.
Good News: A storm happens to blow the Pearl off course. Thanks to that and CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow's mad ship sailing skills, the Pearl crushes the witch in the process.
Bad News: Glinda the Good Witch turns up and starts talking incessantly in your ear about trivial matters
Good News: You're deaf.
Good news: Glinda cures your deafness and loses her voice at the same time.
Good News: You learn how to earth bend from the nearby badger moles who feel sorry for you. You're just as good as Toph now.
Bad news: you become a short, prepubescent girl too. You're just as good as Toph now.
Good news: Toph kicks some serious ass, so being a short, prepubscent isn't all that bad.
Bad news: Now I have to say something bad about Toph and I don't want to.
Good News: Your fairy godmother turns you back into your regular old self.
Bad News: Turns out the fairy godmother wasn't so good (because she's the one from Shrek) and put a spell on you. By day a princess, by night an ogre.
Good news: you also get a pet dog!
Bad news: The dog is reabid and you need to put it down like Old Yeller.
Good news: The send off was peaceful and un-eventful.
Bad news: the dog came back to haunt you.
Good news: it's a really cute ghost puppy.
Bad News: Hiding a set of teeth like jaws. And he needs to practice using them.
Goods news: thankfully, he is more than willing to pratice on that red bouncy ball that you bought him.
Bad News: The red bouncy ball is in your hand.
Bad News: Envy (huge dinosaur form) brings it back and wants to add you to his collection of people/souls.
Good news: Ed and Al show up, and you hide inside Al.
Bad News: Wrath is suspicious of what's inside Al's armor and stabs his sword through it. Unfortunately, you're not as short as Mei.
Good news: You're flexible and manage to dodge the blade while still maintaining the image that Al's empty.
Bad news, Wrath just doesn't give up and ends up impaling your arm.
Forever Signed in Blood,
Slayer End
Good News: You have an automail arm.
Bad News: Your automail arm is now completely wrecked.
Good News: You're best friends with Winry and she agrees to repair your automail for you WITHOUT harming/murdering you.
Bad News: Ed doesn't like sharing Winry and goes all out on you. Full Metal badass genius style.
Just ran across this and thought I might as well post it up since it's a "good news, bad news" thing.
http://www.slightlywarped.com/crapfactory/curiosities/2010/train_burns_bridge.htm
Good News: You have a philosopher's stone that you can give him.
Bad News: Voldemort stole it from you and now you've forgotten where he has put it
Good news: he hasn't forgotten where he put it, and you exchange it for the location of Harry Potter.
Technically, what does one mean when we say 'life'. Isn't it just a chance, a random amalgam of certain proteins that we call the first 'living' thing? I know that I am not very clear (how can i be clear when the issue itself is too complex?) but what I am trying to say 'lets just see both the living and non living together'. Aren't both living and non living made up of atoms and molecules? Aren't living beings just a complex mix of random molecules, all of which function (undergo chemical reactions and stuff) in such a way that this cluster of the molecules (or the being) fulfills our criterion for a 'living body'? So from a broader perspective, if there is something 'living' out there, would we still call it 'life' even though it may not fit our definition of 'life'?
Water flows due to gravity. We can explain it through physics. We know the process of how it happens and why it happens. And since gravity is helping water to flow we say water wouldn't move by itself. Hence water doesn't fullfil an important criterion for a living body which is 'growth and movement'. But lets say we do not know what gravity is....then what? Doesn't water fullfil the 'movement' criterion at least?
Lets take another ridiculous example...Do you call the transformers 'living' or simply 'high tech robots'? Since we do not know the why's and how's of their origin, we conclude that they are 'living', the key point being 'since we do not know'. It might be quite true that due to our lack of knowledge of things today, we may not even know if life somewhere out there is really life.
Even if we follow our existing definition of life, what are the odds of finding something that fits this definition? Simple argument says the universe is too vast for life away from earth not to occur. But even if there are lots of suitable stars with a suitable planets (assuming life exists in planets from our existing definition), what are the odds of those certain proteins to form the right mixture to sustain that first single cell? What are odds that it would survive after that? What are the odds that it will form multiple cells? Even if that happens, what are the odds that they may generate the required technology? Would they even 'think' (assuming they can think) to contact us out of curiousity (assuming they are curious)? Would they not think of themselves first, and about the better survival of their species? What are the odds that we can contact them or observe their existence? Currently the moon is the farthest place that man has sent a manned mission to. According to Einstien we cannot physically overcome the speed of light. And the nearest star itself is light years away... And even if we send information through radio waves (which we have already done) it again comes back to "do they have the technology?".
There are so many things we do not know now. We have questions but not answers. When I look up at night sky, i wonder what is beyond all of these. We have theories which we accept to be the truth but no one is sure. Which is why, because we have no answers, i believe people 'believe'. And sometimes it takes a lot for some lunatic like me to believe.
Goods news: Who needs a car anyway? Not when you can fly your nifty Charizard home
Bad news: your charizar'd has the flu and has taken your bed to sleep.

Good news: After the failure of the Yugioh cards, you realize you're next door to a pokemone centre. Nurse Joy makes your Charizard all better
Bad news: charizard is lazy, and decides he wants to stay in your bed anyway.
Bad news: your bed is now on fire.
Bad News: Your Charizard suddenly wanted roasted turtoise for dinner, proceeded to seismec toss Blastoise on a rock to crack its shell, and then roasted it over your bed fire.
Good news: Having eaten Charizard feels guilty and buys you a new bed. He does this by consuming the owner of the bed shop.
Bad news: The family of the owner of the bed shop sues the hell out of you
Good news: Bram Moskovicz is your lawyer and he demands a change of jury. (This won't mean jack shit if you're not from Holland, I suppose, so here's a bit more info: Bram Moskovicz is Geert Wilders's lawyer and a very well known guy anyway)
(I leave for half a year and this thread is still going strong? Sniff I'm so proud! ... Wait, I haven't a clue what you just refered to there. >.<)
Good news: The owner has somehow gotten himself killed and you're no longer needed in court:D
Bad News: Now you're the primary suspect for the owner's death.
Good News: You and the real murderer meet up in jail and you manage to convince the police that it was that dude so they let you out.
Bad news: The actual murderer is part of a gang, and has friends on the outside. He sicks those friends after you/

Good news: Davy Jones also got a bid on your soul, so he and Crowley are too busy fighting over you to pay attention as you slip away.
Good news: you used to be a track star in college, so you can outrun the hell hounds.
Bad news: But you can't outrun the Balrog that just happens to be blocking your path.
Good news: Gandalf appears and rugby-tackles it out of your way.

Bad news: Suddenly, Ryu and Ken appear, and they're pissed....
Mostly Naruto!!! (I'm Naruto-obssessed, well not really but I just like to write and sketch and ya you get the point... =.=)
