Not necessarily.All the rich kids would be getting genetic enhancements in the womb and brain implants for their birthdays, like Brazilian butt jobs or Stanford entries. Their parents worked for it tho. Yeah but eventually down the line inheriting big bucks and companies and power becomes free wealth for those kids. As for augmentations, I would not mind a few body mods as long as they make sense and aren't just fashion fads. Artificial spine, bionic muscles and joints for that 1000kg deadlift! Zoomable eyes with infrared mode! And the giant robo dick implant naturally.

I'd want to be augmented to breathe underwater and be cold temperature resistant so I can go skinny dipping and ice fishing with the penguins at the beach in Antarctica.

Sports car racing, whether GT or Prototypes, has never been less interesting or more irrelevant than it is right now. And that is entirely down to the rule sets now in fashion, which strive to make the racing as "even" and low cost as possible.

And that is entirely down to the rule sets now in fashion, which strive to make the racing as "even" and low cost as possible. I partially agree, but trying to keep the costs down is really important, if you have teams spend nearly as much as a Formula 1 team on sportscar racing they go do F1 racing instead or - as in the case of Porsche, Audi (LMGTP) or Peugeot, they simply throw in the towel. Lots of car manufacturers are already struggling financially and as technology gets more complex the costs keep rising. Also if you include DTM and Super GT into sports car racing its not so bad, those are basically modern GT1 cars with 600HP and tons of downforce. I'm eager to see how the new endurance GT series that replaces the LM prototypes will turn out tho, I am prepared for anything!

A lot of people like to shit on folks who whip out their phones at concerts and record rather than just sit and watch, which I can empathize with -- I'm certainly no fan of the cancers that are social-media and smartphones on human interaction --, but I feel like we've now gone too much in the other direction and gotten overly anal about it.
I was at a concert yesterday and some woman annoyed me over this, but it's something that I've been thinking for a little while now, not just something I'm saying because of a bad experience recently.
First of all, I don't record THAT much of the show. I watch most of it, at like a 90/10 split.
Second, I really do go back and watch those videos every now and again, not just post it to social-media for some likes and then forget all about it. Between mental recall and watching footage from there and then, there's no contest as to which one allows me to relive the experience better.
Said woman was walking by me as I was recording, made a shadow puppet in front of my camera -- which I just kind of ignored as a joke -- then stood nearby and did the "I'm watching you" gesture -- which again I shrugged off -- then said "YOU'RE NOT WATCHING!" to which I acquiesced and just got rid of it so she'd get out of my hair. That whole thing just kind of annoyed me for the next 15 minutes.
Even if I was ruining the experience for myself by recording the whole thing rather than watching, well... that's my business. Let me ruin it for myself.
And no, I wasn't ruining anyone else's view while doing so; I was standing the back -- against a wall. =|

Mayonnaise is disgusting af (same goes for mustard). What about Japanese mayonnaise ? I guess you dislike it due to the flavour ? Also... ketchup on fries is heresy Second also Arijon van Goyen why Ramzan Kadyrov ? xD Yeah, something like that and I was 1 month banned. It seems most people couldn't see the beauty of the pet-master relation... instead got b-hurt. And when did nopers deleted account? Am I that scary when I reappear people just decide to vanish?!

I dislike seafood too due to it's texture. Ugh. As a Muslim, I can't drink alcohol anyway. I do like to at least try and get a virgin drink if possible, but either way, they're pretty dull and not worth drinking. Here's my unpopular food opinion: I'm one of the idiots who LIKES pineapple on pizza!

That's a very good point actually. It's one of the reasons why in RPG's I generally try to choose character builds that are generally weaker and don't rely exclusively on magic or something to stay alive. I think one way I've found certain media counter this idea of Eugenics is to make the Eugenic a horrible thing to be. In Dragon Age for example, being born with magical abilities puts you in immediate danger. You have a super high chance of getting possessed by a demon and you have to essentially be locked away in a tower isolated from society. I've always viewed the mages in DA as more like scientists, with all the studying they do and the things they can create and manipulate. I also see the Chantry as the church during medieval times, when they kept science on a short leash and made sure that scientific knowledge only followed the religious narrative. Western science is based on Western religion and early Western soul of 900 AD till 1500 AD, plus borrowed stuff from the ancient Greeks and medieval middle easterns. Economics, Protestantism, Rationalism & Empiricism, focus on nature to grasp its secrets, become god and create technology are pure Western products tho. Only the Chinese and ancient Egyptians come close in some aspects.

Actresses and models should be advised to do sexy and nude pictures when they're in their 20's and early 30's. Because when they eventually do them anyway, in wishful desperation, in their 40's, it's actually too late.

And Never Let the Almighty Tom Cruise see into Your Soul. Ham? Think I've tried it sometime long ago. It's fine enough. I prefer Pineapple with salami and green, hot chili. It's important that it's hot. Experiment with adding black pepper, onion and garlic to taste, but not necessary.

I have been accused of being a misanthropist on more than one occasion, and I suppose that is true to a certain extent. Just for clarification though I don't hate humans, just human nature... and all the stupidity that implies.

Sometimes I do wonder though if a cataclysmic natural disaster or alien invasion, something that forces us to all work together or die, wouldn't be a way to subdue human nature; at least for a little while.

It would. War, for example, resets a whole lot of things. Takes care of over-population, teaches people modesty and if you survive there's more upward mobility again.
Poverty in general also forces people to be nice to each other and share. Out of necessity, not because we want to. The moment people have enough money to be truly independent they don't much care about their neighbors anymore. Or anybody else really. They even lose interest in having children because they no longer rely on them to care for them when tehy're old. They have money now. Money does everythig for you.
Sharing is so much cheaper but that would require keeping in touch with people and that's bothersome. Much easier to just get your own stuff, pay a professional to fix all your shit or just replace it. No need to play nice with others so you can borrow their high pressure cleaner or whatever.
I too resent much of human nature but find it easy enough to get along with people and like them for their individual traits.
