think i'll go back to my tau next week though.


well, thats my offtopic talking done for today :P
nice comic, loving that even when BM trys to be nice (even for his own reasons) he's still screwed over :P

From what I know of Hindu mythology;

The creator (WM)= Brahman
The preserver (RM)= Vishnu (Krishna was one of several representations of him on Earth)
The destroyer (BM)= Shiva
Pretty sure it's Brahma. Brahman was something else... universal life force or something? And doesn't that mean Rm was Ghandi at one point?

My mistake;

Brahma = creator god
Brahman = The god (considered inconceivable to a human being)
Bramin = A member of the Hindu priest/teacher class

How does that mean RM was Ghandi? That would make him subordonate ot everyone else.

According to the religion, Vishnu had several avatars on earth all throughout history, each one working to maintain balance between good and evil. Krishna's the only one I can recall.

Some people attributed Ghandi as being an avatar, mostly after his death. A few think Martin Luther King jr. could have been one. A lot of people argue against these notions too. I don't think anyone really knows since they're not in any holy books.

Either way, we're likening an 8-bit guy with a pimp hat to Vishnu. The way I see it, we're either creepily right, or going to get slapped when the Deity decides stupidity and intellect need balancing too.


...and what kind of insult is fudgemuffins!? Fudge brownies are inconceivably good. I don't see how muffins of the stuff could be possibly used with a negative connotation.

There is a finite amount of evil. It's because there's a finite amount of horror people can tolerate. Save your Oblivion game, and go on a temporary town killing spree. I guarantee you, it takes a great deal more creativity to make people suffer than you'd think. After a while, killing them just isn't enough. My solution is to cheat for every spell in the game (I mean it when I say every. hit ` and type psb) and reanimate their corpses as a mindless obedient army of my own. Plus reality-bending mods. It is beautiful mayhem, but there always comes a point where you want to revert back to the innocent save.

Maybe fudge muffins don't work?

Nope, they do. I even found a recipe! I love Google, it's just as great as magipedia.

You guys are great too. Questioning me about desserts and happily ignoring my detailed blabbing about in-game killing sprees... It's like a home away from home, and I don't even have to leave my house!
