The SF created us to enjoy our suffering. … The sooner we die, the sooner we defy His plans.

Suppose aliens invade the earth and threaten to obliterate it in a year's time unless human beings can find the Ramsey number for red five and blue five. We could marshal the world's best minds and fastest computers, and within a year we could probably calculate the value. If the aliens demanded the Ramsey number for red six and blue six, however, we would have no choice but to launch a preemptive attack.

I recently read Hoffman's book about Erdos, it was such a fun read. What an amazing person this guy was. Also to anyone interested, google "N is a Number", it's a documentary about him and it's on youtube

If I really want to enjoy your suffering, an you're contemplating taking that away from me by killing yourself, then I will send you a delusion to make you think it is better for you to stay alive. Think you could kill yourself if you really wanted to? I call BS on you! Prove it, faggot.
