It is time for desperate actions.
It is finally time to end the Age of Reason.

What a fascinating thread
I have been doing entirely too much earnest posting about deep things recently, I need to do a proper thread about hippo testicles or something just to keep myself sane.
Oh by the way hippos have migratory testicles.

I think the spirit of "Evil Games" demands of me to be as bold and declarative as possible.
