There will be no theft of my avatar. It's against old SG law.

There are many things that one could say in this thread, at this point. One could make a post containing a single character, perhaps an

a

and one would win. However, one might not feel wholly fulfilled if one were to make such a pointless post. So, then, what to post?

It could be "sup", as so many have posted before, or perhaps some variation thereof, but that begs the question (not in the linguistic fallacy sense, but rather in the sense that it suggests), does the RDM really care what is up? Not especially. It's not like the contents of "up" are going to have any significant bearing on his day. Besides that, if history is any indicator, asking what is up in this thread will not yield an answer, but instead a total non sequitur, usually in all caps.

Which leads the RDM to a third possibility of something to type, something totally random. We'll take, as an example,

I saw a turtle once.

The RDM has, indeed, seen a turtle, though probably not the same turtle as Cybernetic Empire, because that would be a bit too much of a coincidence. But he has seen a turtle more than once, so saying that he had seen one once would be a fabrication, and perhaps inherantly pointless. He could think of various reasons why he would not want to post any given random thing along the lines of

I saw a turtle once.

But really, what would be the point of that? Would he gain anything? No, the RDM doesn't think he would gain anything by arguing against posting it, though by posting it (which he shall not do) would grant him an ephemeral victory. We shall return to this concept later.

The RDM could do something that has been done in this thread many times before, and reply to something like

I saw a turtle once.

with something like

A ninja turtle?

And have some semblance of a conversation within this thread. The conversation would, most assuredly, die within five posts, however, in favor of continued non sequiturs. Would there be any point in having such a brief conversation? Perhaps, if it were meaningful, but most short conversations are something like

Hi, how are you?

Fine, you?

Not bad.

And that's it. No one has gained anything from that conversation. Presumably, there is a large chance that one or both of the participants in the conversation lied. Two lies in a conversation of only eight words. The RDM would surely not want to propogate such a flagrant disregard for honesty. Would you? Obviously, one should not make a post that leads one to a life of dishonesty.

On the other side of an argument raised a few moments ago, one could type something totally random such as "OMGWTFBBQ"...but that would be very difficult to pronounce out loud, and thus there would be no reason to post it. Everyone knows thast one should never type what one would not be willing to exclaim three times in a very loud voice in a public place. Why? The RDM doesn't know, but he totally decided that it is the case. You don't get to dispute it, because there's too much post remaining and you'll probably forget about it by the end.

So, then, what should one post? Well, that depends on what one would like to gain in posting. In this thread, whomever has posted last is the victor. Obviously, the most viable reason for anyone to make a post in this thread is to win. Who wouldn't want to win? Winning is good and good for you. The problem, however, is in how briefly one remains the winner. Sometimes it goes on for days, and that is admittedly sweet, but other times it lasts for mere minutes. Winning is such a way is still sweet, but far too ephemeral to be satisfying, even for the shortest of attention spans. If one were too competitive, one might be driven to madness by how easily victory could be ripped away from one's clutches.

The RDM is competitive...but he does not fear the looming threat of madness. He has had enough of only winning for a little while, and he wishes to win it all. So he thinks about it...and has come to a revelation.

Perhaps the transience of one's victory is directly proportional to one's post. Not, perhaps, in quantity of characters the post contains, but in the quality of the thought involved. So, if one is asking what is up without truly wanting to know what is up, one is being disingenuous in one's desires and thus one is exhibiting a very low level in quality of thought. You can't win for very long if that's all you have to devote to victory. Victory would never accept such a paltry sacrifice.

A simila argument could be made against having any of the tiny, lie-ridden conversations that pepper this thread, conversations the the RDM is ashamed to say he has participated in on more than one occasion. Because these conversations are, by their very nature, pepper with lies, deciet and other things with words that have negative connotations, Victory will not accept them as sacrifices either. Victory will spit upon such...crap.

There are various reasons why various other kinds of posts would not be suitable for actually winning, but the RDM has neither the patience nor the memory to deal with every single one of them. You know? That would be a little obscene. Basically, when it comes down to it, the only kind of post that has been posted in this thread thus far that could possibly be worthy of actually winning is a post in which the poster claims that they are doing the very thing that they are doing in posting the post that they post: winning. But that has been so many times...it's gotten old. And it hasn't gotten any one a permanent victory yet. Perhaps that is simply because those that were winning in posting posts that said that they were winning did not understand that the winning posts would be posted by a winning poster that understood the posting was winning and winning was posting only if the winning poster made the truly winning post, and claimed within that post that they won. And so...
