So what's up with...

[CaramelAppleClock]

no seriously who are you and why are you fagging up my clockcrew?

[DoxosopherClock]

I'm actually probably an older member than you are. I mean, I'm not saying that for sure, but I've been around since Olskoo's site.

ok seriously that last post intrigued me

You're still fagging it up.

You're a fucking idiot.

Now hold on a minute. I can't say I agree with everything this guy says, but when you consider that each of our intelligences is infinitely small compared to the maximum amount of knowledge discoverable in the world, we're all equal. I don't necessarily agree with that either, but I see where he was coming from.

As a counter-point, may I add that intelligence is relative. When we think about it, we compare the intelligence of one person to another, not to the total amount of knowledge learanable as a whole. However, intelligence is a very abstract and subjective concept. Generally, however, we measure it by one's ability to remember things that even smarter people found out about the world beforehand, plus using their mental abilities to add to what we know.

Mind you, the human sense are very limited in nature. Humans have weak ears, weak sense of smell, have a very small wavelength range that can be detected by the eyes (although humans have pretty decent eyesight as animals). Not to mention a fairly weak sense of taste. Snakes, for one, are much better at that. And touch, of course, is somewhat irrelevant in terms of comparing it with other things, but our sense of touch works.

The thing I find interesting about humans in particular, though, is their superior mental capacity. It makes us better off than regular animals.

Examples of human superiority:

• The capacity to help each other with no reward or benefit. I'd add religion in here, but seeing as about 90% of the Clock Crew is atheist and rather straightforward and "logical" in their thinking, not so much abstract. This advances the species as a whole by providing a ridiculously large unity.
• Philosophy and discovery. Particularly testing things, or using an abstract system based off of counting objects to define general trends around us, or recording what has happened to check for patterns in choices and ways of living in people, or interpreting written marks and uttered sounds to gain meaning and allow advanced communication between a species, even over ridiculous distances (i.e. from here to Britain, Australia, the Netherlands, or Canada). By these four things, I mean science, mathematics, social studies, and language, explained in very generic terms.
• Logic. While it is sometimes known to fail, human logic goes lightyears beyond what animals are capable of, even if it can be fooled on occasion. If you don't think that it can be fooled, search YouTube for Derren Brown.

Also, here's a NON-TL;DR STATEMENT for Philosopher:

If there is no science, how would regular human beings have created the very Internet you are using right now? If you'd like, you can test the patterns that science has found to hold true. Don't trust that pure, distilled water boils near 212 Fahrenheit (100 celsius, of course) degrees at standard pressure (about the air pressure at sea level)? Try it! If you think you've found an error in such findings, tell others about it, the exact conditions you performed it in, and see if they get the same result.

Science can and will be wrong at times, thus making it not 100% reliable. However, there are general patterns in life that cannot be ignored if you want to live as you likely do now.

To the rest of the Clock Crew:

Remember that some people don't understand the world where politeness gets thrown out the window, and people actually talk about what they don't like about you. I didn't get it either when I first went on the Internet and the Clock Crew. You may want to step it down a notch so that Philosopher doesn't throw all sensible thought out the window in exchange for a perceived need of self-defense. Real life in places like where I live compared to the Internet is like Japan compared to America. They think we're rude, we think they're too polite.

For some reason, I can't tell whether this is a good or bad thing.

I was PyramidHustler. I guess you could say that I was relatively obscure. I was quite friendly with HawaiianPunchClock and BananaClock.

There was a "duck day" on the Clock Crew. Dwarfinator made a series of epic threads using this silly animated doodle of a crude duck, dubbed "duck.fla." The Clock Crew scheduled a day where we would flood the portal with duck.fla spinoffs.

The original version didn't contain the song that goes with it, but it was later added in by Dwarfinator. Have a look:

It's not the original thread or version of duck.fla, but that particular version of duck.fla is what became popular (minus the shocked face).

Anyways, the little dancing duck is an award given to everyone who participated in Duck Day.

Do you really?! Perhaps I wasn't as obscure as I thought. Awesome man.


That duck thing cracks me up. I would've loved to participate in that.

The portal was flooded with them, and wade deleted them all because it got his panties in a knot. Then everyone was either like "WADE SUCKS DICK WIFE JOKES" or "GUYS DON'T BE MAD AT WADE GIVE IT A REST". It was hilarious but a lot of snotty drama.
