The Cult of UberNinja

[Psyche]

Computers save people from loneliness.

Is that enough of a reason?

If you have to ask...

[Psyche]

psyche whats the final decision between for colleges

Princeton really cheap vs Duke with full scholarship with two funded summers of service. Hence my interest in saving the world.

I got into a number of other schools, but those are the two in the top ten.

...I feel too remote from the problems that face humanity. This damned American bubble.

Removed some posts.

This is GD, keep it clean.

[Lurker]

I want to join this cult.

[Lurker]

Eh, I need to change to a non-flowchartisn image first, then change that into a black silloutlette, then put that on the background.

Any suggestions?

[Majiffy]

Yeah. The flowchart crest and replace the center bit with white so that the orange of the background shines through.

[Majiffy]

Have Uber re-make the crest so it looks better.

Holy shit, congrats

Princeton will have better opportunities but fuck Princeton

>Considering an Ivy League school

Take a year off and live in the ghetto, you'll feel plenty close to the problems of humanity, mate.

most people in poorer areas are actually way friendlier anyway, I've noticed.

[Majiffy]

Unless there's a gang war going on.

[UberNinja]

Turf wars ensue regularly over who gets to bring cookies to the new neighbors... at least, that's the way it is in my hood

[Majiffy]

Nothing is scarier than feuding suburban mothers.

[Who]

Can you give me an example where computer science actually saved the world in a way as substantial as, say, medicine has?

Without actually being medicine, I mean?

Well, computers were invented to crack the German code in WWII, which really helped at defeating the Nazis. Does that count?

Ignoring that, computers enable everything else to save the world.

[JacobSavage]

Why worry about saving the world.

Do what you enjoy first and foremost, if you save the world whilst doing it then that's a bonus.

Psyche, it sounds like you are in a bit of a spiritual and existential funk.

You know what I always do in times like that?






BUY A NEW SUIT

[Majiffy]

Typically I just read Sartre at those times.

How does one go about leaving this cult?

By leaving MS, for this cult IS mafiascum. It's in the spelling, even. U-b-e-r-n-i-n-j-a.-c-u-l-t. Mafiascum. See?

I'm a ninja. (badumtish)

But seriously, Uberninja and Mafiascum are synonymous. They have the same number of letters (9) and syllables (4). It couldn't be any clear than that.

[Human Destroyer]

I'm a ninja.

I believe we should have an Easy Spoken Ninja's fortress as well, but unless created by our Dear Leader, I doubt it would hold any authoritative position among the membership.
