If you are not going to talk to me, then don't bother adding me as a friend... If I don't know you - expect me to be cautious about adding you as a friend, if you are trying to recruit me to your religion.. don't bother when u send a friend request, please say something about why we would get along... because if you don't, i'll think u r a friend whore, or i'll think u didn't read my profile at all and that you are not really a genuine person who wants to be my friend! ok.. the magic number is 666 .. ppl need to tell me the magic number when they send a friend request...

"Each must for himself alone decide what is right and what is wrong, and which course is patriotic and which isn't. You cannot shirk this and be a man.

"She used a poison in his tea, Then (she) kissed him goodbye" That's my kind of story It's no fun til someone dies. Don't look at me like I am a monster Frown out your one face, but with the other (you) Stare like a junkie into the TV Stare like a zombie while the mother holds her child, Watches him die, Hands to the sky cryin "why, oh why?" Cause I need to watch things die from a distance Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies You all need it too - don't lie. Why can't we just admit it? Why can't we just admit it? We won't give pause until the blood is flowin' Neither the brave nor bold Nor brightest of stories told We won't give pause until the blood is flowin' I need to watch things die from a good safe distance Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies You all feel the same so why can't we just admit it? Blood like rain fallin' down Drum on grave and ground Part vampire, part warrior, Carnivore and voyeur Stare at the transmittal. Sing to the death rattle. La, la, la, la, la, la, la-lie (x4) Credulous at best Your desire to believe in Angels in the hearts of men. But pull your head on out (of) your hippie haze And give a listen Shouldn't have to say it all again The universe is hostile So impersonal Devour to survive So it is, so it's always been ... We all feed on tragedy. It's like blood to a vampire. Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies Much better you than I.

my ally is the Force. And a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. It's energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we... not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you. Here, between you... me... the tree... the rock... everywhere! Yes, even between this land and that ship!--[Yoda]
The Jedi are selfless . . . they only care about others.--[Anakin Skywalker]
In the end, cowards are those who follow the Dark Side...--[Yoda]
Smaller in number are we, but larger in mind...--[Yoda]
To answer power with power, the Jedi way this is not.--[Yoda]
Long is the war, Only by surviving it, will you prevail.--[Yoda]
Death is a natural part of life. Rejoice for those around you who transform into the Force. Mourn them, do not. Miss them, do not. Attachment leads to jealousy. The shadow of greed, that is.--[Yoda]

Who lives in the east 'neath the willow tree? Sexual Harassment Panda. Who explains sexual harassment to you and me? Sexual Harassment Panda. "Don't say that! Don't touch there! Don't be nasty!" says the silly bear. He's come to tell you what's right and wrong. Sexual Harassment Panda.--[Petey, The Sexual Harassment Panda]
Well, Tom, I'm here live in Las Vegas in what is quickly becoming known as "the gayest party ever." Everyone is so outraged that they are building a large cross in which to once again crucify our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. --[reporter talking about Jesus' millennium party]
Tom, I'm standing in New York City, but it could just as well be any town on Earth right now. The desolation, the damage is exactly the same in every city the whole world over. It's been just under 20 hours since everyone on Earth pooped their pants, and people still roam their damaged homes with disbelief, and loss. Rick?--[reporter talking about everyone crapping themselves]
Tom, I am standing just outside of Chicago, where the panic of global warming has already caused countless deaths. Already we're reporting that the death toll here in Chicago is over 600 billion people--[reporter talking about global warming "Two Days Before The Day After Tomorrow."]
Yeah. You know, we believe in equality for everybody, and tolerance, and all that gay stuff, but dude, fuck you.--[Stan]
Hey, you guys, you wanna know what my favorite psalm is? "It's a man's obligation to stick his boneration in a woman's separation. This sort of penetration will increase the population of the younger generation."--[Cartman]
Hello, everyone. Today, we're going to talk about hell. Hell is not a very nice place. Burning, searing, flames. Screaming, torture. For eternity. Once you are in hell, you cannot escape. You live forever in horrible pain, in burning agony. All sinners are there in misery, dying over and over and over. If you be cast down into this black bog of stench, then woe is thou, for Satan has made it the most miserable place in the universe! And he will be your ruler! Your ruler of pain and agony!--[Father Maxi]
Kyle, it's all about being a good person now! You see, Christians use hell as a way to scare people into believing what they believe. But to believe in something just because you're afraid of the consequences if you don't believe in something is no reason to believe in something. Understand?--[Gerald Brofloski]
Well, young man, you can rest assured that according to Matthew 25, when you die you will stand before God and he will will say, "Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels." Yes! As a Jew, your home will be the lake of fire.--[Father Maxi]
Sister, the Jews crucified our Savior. I mean, if you don't go to hell for crucifying the Savior, then what the hell do you go to hell for?!--[Father Maxi]
Hello, newcomers, and welcome. Can everybody hear me? Hello? Can everybuh-? Okay. Uh, I'm the hell director. Uh, it looks like we have about 8,615 of you newbies today, and for those of you who are a little confused, uh, you are dead, and this is hell, so, abandon all hope and uh yada yada yada.--[Hell Director]
Okay children, so what other sexual positions have we talked about? Yeah, the wrap-around butt grab. Sure, can't forget that. Uh huh, reverse cowgirl. Good, Kevin. Hot Lunch, sure, she likes that. Donkey Punch, uh huh. Glass-bottom boat. Good one, yes. Fish-eye. Good, Jenny. Chili dog. Mm-hm.--[Mr Garrison]
Skier: All right, little dudes, great to see you out here. My name is Thumper, and I'm gonna be your cool ski instructor.
Cartman: His name is Thumper?
Thumper: We're gonna take it slow, take it easy, make sure everybody has a goood time. 'Cause what is skiing about? Having a good...? Tiime, that's right. Now, just a few safety things to keep in mind: First of all, look straight ahead when you ski. You look down, you're gonna fall, you're gonna have a bad time. Also, be aware of skiers around you. You run into another skier, your skis are gonna cross, gonna have a bad time.
Butters: So where's the part where we have a good time?
Thumper: Hey, little dude, you got some crap right here.
Butters: Wuh that's my face, sir.
Thumper: Alright, we're gonna do this without any poles until we know our two primary feet positions. To go slow, we wedge our skis together, in the shape of a slice... of pizza. Then to go faster, we put 'em parallel, like... French fries. You see that? Pizza, French fries, Pizza, French fries.
Butters: Ah hey, this is gonna be just like eatin' at Shakey's, huh fellas?
Thumper: Okay, let's have the little dude at the end try first! What's your name?
Ike: Iiiiike!
Thumper: Okay, Mike, ski down to me!
Kyle: Go on, Ike.
Ike: Pee-za, Fron fries. Pee-za, Fron fries. Fron friiiies. Peeee-zaaa
Thumper: Okay, you see what he did? He French-fried when he should've piiza'd. You French-fry when you should pizza, you're gonna have a bad time.--[South Park - "Asspen" ]

The Sony PSP was built by God, to determine who on Earth had the best skills to defeat the armies of Satan. You... are the best. YOU, are the only hope for the universe--[Saint Peter on South Park - "Best Friends Forever"]
Shut your fucking face, uncle fucker. You're a cock-sucking, ass-licking uncle fucker. You're an uncle fucker, yes it's true. NOBODY fucks uncles quite like you!--[Terrence & Philip]
[Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy]
There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
The last time anybody made a list of the top hundred character attributes of New Yorkers, common sense snuck in at number 79.
Anything that happens, happens. Anything that, in happening, causes something else to happen, causes something else to happen. Anything that, in happening, causes itself to happen again, happens again. It doesn't necessarily do it in chronological order, though.
Zaphod knocked one of his heads against the inside wall. He didn't need this, he thought to himself, this of all things he had no need of. He hadn't asked to be here. If he was asked at this moment where he would like to be he would probably have said he would like to be lying on the beach with at least fifty beautiful women and a small team of experts working out new ways they could be nice to him, which was his usual reply./span>
