    What defines adult?

    I define age purely by one's mind. When a child realizes adults aren't perfect, he becomes a juvenile. He becomes an adult when he forgives them for it.

    Animal Morph!

    Let's say you can choose one animal, and one animal only. You will be able to morph into this animal at any time, for any reason. What animal do you choose? Why? I would pick a pterodactyl. Why? Because I can.

    Looking at yourself in the mirror

    I've always enjoyed looking in mirrors. Not because of my physical appearance (which I do not think of as particularly bad, or good), but because I find it helps me to reflect. (no pun intended) I find I can sometimes discover what I am thinking by reading my own eyes, even if I didn't know...

    Pain Tolerance

    That would be pain. Physical pain. Self-inflicted would be you thinking negative thoughts about yourself. This would occur often in people who are depressed. Coming from an outside source would be if someone said something nasty about you and it really got you down. Exactly. "Gratification...

    Why did you pick your name?

    I just made up a name. I use this profile name for just about everything where I wouldn't use my actual name. It's never taken, I guess.

    Pain Tolerance

    I would separate pain into the categories of "emotional" and "physical". To elaborate upon "emotional", there is self-inflicted and that which comes from an outside source. Earlier in the thread, it was said that "gratification is the absence of pain". I disagree. There are many times when I...

    Pain Tolerance

    @everyone who says "pain is needed to know when one is hurting oneself" You seem to be misunderstanding me. I don't mean this would completely eliminate pain. Everyone would still feel pain. It would, for lack of a better term, make pain not hurt. Imagine the feeling of your clothes on your...

    Pain Tolerance

    @Anthile I never intended for it to be practical. I would definitely use chemicals if I needed to be rid of pain. I just say all of this because I find it interesting that one may be able to avoid pain without outside aid

    Pain Tolerance

    No one likes being in pain. If it's something we could take out of our daily lives, I don't think many people would mind. Yes, I do realize it is impractical. I'm just theorizing.

    Pain Tolerance

    I was recently contemplating pain. Obviously in the earlier years as a species we learned that pain is "bad" and should be avoided. Pain tended to mean one was being brought closer to death. However, our current society is much less...primal. If one is pricked by a pin, we naturally jerk our...
