Give me one good reason...

...why I should or should not do this thing.
 
 
Naked Flame

Because that tree's gonna fall to lumberjack or lightning / and it doesn't much matter which.

By your actions you define yourself.
 
 
Panda.
18:00 / 03.11.02
because you should meet up with me instead, dear! Where do you live exactly?
 
 
higuita
18:46 / 03.11.02
I was going to say because it's the right thing to do - hether the right thing for you, for humanity in general or even just for the good of little furry scrunchy things.

Given the topic abstract however, what the hell.
 
 
Solitaire Rose as Tom Servo
20:02 / 03.11.02
Because last night RUSH performed the song "Leave That Thing Alone."

Do it, if it makes you happy.

20:08 / 03.11.02
Because you should always be contrary to authority figures.

Hmmmmm, very interesting already. This is almost a divination, very cool.

Panda full stop, I live near a tree.
 
 
Eloi Tsabaoth

Because because because because because.
Because of the wonderful things he does.

21:32 / 03.11.02
do it because oranges are not the only fruit.
 
 
The Tower Always Falls

Because Thom Yorke is screaming that he "wishes something would happen" out of my stereo, and by doing something- that something will happen. Especially if you wish it.

Because sleeping *dogs* lie, and sleeping people are easily controlled. Are you a dog, or a fighting, breathing human being??
 
 
The Falcon
02:14 / 04.11.02
Because if you don't do it now, you might want to do it later - but the opportunity will have passed.

Better to do than not.

Side effect on yr. chaos exp. is that are not the only fruit is the exact same phrase that I just wrote in another thread. Although this may be connected by myself and d-l-s- looking at the same other thread.

Aye, well...

You should do it because you'll regret it if you don't and it'll be fun. Deep down inside you want to do it anyways.
 
 
Saint Keggers
02:29 / 04.11.02
because your momma don't dance and your daddy don't rock and roll?
 
 
invisible_al
11:22 / 04.11.02
You should.

Why?

Cos.
 
 
The Natural Way
11:28 / 04.11.02
You should not do it, because that way lies Battle Oxen and Decaying Steed.
 
 
Papess
12:04 / 04.11.02
Oooh, a Nay... and Runce takes the opposition.

General Concensus:
"Son, it is better to regret something you have done, than to regret something you haven't...and when you see your mom this weekend, tell her...Satan, Satan, Satan!" (Where does this come from? who am I quoting here? Buthole Surfers or someone?)

Maybe without the "Satan" part. Maybe Cthulhu, Cthulhu, Cthulhu!...?
 
 
pointless and uncalled for
12:11 / 04.11.02
By simple terms of inevitability it will happen at sometime whether you do it or not.

In light of this precondition you can either bite or dodge the bullet as you actions may be entirely inconsequential.

Inconsequnce is often, by my own perverse reckoning, as good a reason to do it as any.

It may not work for you though, only one way to find out.

Engage at Warp three for the chaos experiments... The world really does need more chaos mages.

As for the other things on your list, I don't know. Do you have a set of gamers' dice?

I'm not entirely sure, but I think your quote might be from Moby from about two years ago.
 
 
The Apple-Picker
14:32 / 04.11.02
Don't do it unless you have been educated about the consequences and are willing to suffer them.
 
 
William Sack
14:46 / 04.11.02
It is definitely the Butthole Surfers, though I can't remember the song title. Strangely enough I thought about posting that lyric, but decided against it. I regret that now.
 
 
Papess
15:21 / 04.11.02
Bwwaahaahaha!

I am Ironman.

grimace'll getcha.

Actually, it may have been sampled from Butthole Surfers, not sure- but I recognize it as a song by Orbital called "Satan". Their "In The Box" has a bonus CD with the industry standard and live version of that...

There's also a great live version of "Halcyon" mixed in with Bon Jovi's "Shot to the Heart" and the Bangle's "Heaven is A Place On Earth"

Okay, I'm done now.

And do it because it makes Shiva happy and Kali cry.
