		<description>1: Why do tradesmen always have to start making shitloads of noise with their noise-accented concrete cutting, jack-hammering machines at seven a.m.? Why can’t they work the same hours as the rest of us? How would they feel if we sat outside their windows when they’re trying to sleep, yelling and sweary, with their horrid FM radios turned up so we’re forced to listen to Diggzy and Floppo or what-the-fuck-ever at Shite FM?

because they are manly, and feel the need to wake everyone else up, just because they are awake, its a constructors paradise... -.-


2: How come the women that empty the pad bins at work all look like they’ve been to prison?

because they went to prison. 

3: Why do I still have to warn my travelling friend about drink spiking when she’s going out? How is this even still a problem?

because the police dont do much.


4: How did a MASSIVE international security operation go on a few weeks back without anyone blinking? When a chillingly frightening situation is on the table, no-one blinks when something is done about it? (and I am NOT talking about the Chaser, or APEC..)

because there is a war, and no one wants to be in it.

5: Do you realise that every one you know, someday will die?

yes. but so will paris hilton and britney spears.

so im fine with it.</description>

		<description>Ask a death question, get a death answer, I guess. Good to see some discussion starting to cook up. Kudos to Angus and Jeffro.

1: The same reason why half the security guards around my work refuse to smile or respond to my greetings, preferring to simply remain stone-faced. An inflated sense of importance in regards to one&#039;s job results in a lack of courtesy to those around you. Of course, maybe they&#039;re just pricks.

2: I&#039;d say there&#039;s a distinct possibility they have been to prison. Imagine you have served time, and then give some thought to the type of job you&#039;d most likely be able to work.

3: Because a lot of people are shit (not exclusively men).

4: To be perfectly honest, I wouldn&#039;t even know what you&#039;re talking about. I must have missed it. I suppose this is the cost of trusting the media to inform us. If I were to make a wild guess, I&#039;d say that there was more screen time devoted to Idol advertisements last fortnight than there was to this security operation?

5: I realise. I don&#039;t comprehend, but I realise.

		<description>&lt;em&gt;andrew (not G)&lt;/em&gt;, Mr Packer&#039;s comments are not conclusive, as other people who have had so-called &#039;near death&#039; experiences &lt;em&gt;do&lt;/em&gt; claim that something does happen. Those experiences, however, can be explained by the uncontrolled release of various neurotransmitters, which are &#039;remembered&#039; as experiences that are reinterpreted later in a form influenced by their belief system.</description>

		<description>Kerry Packer has “actually come back and told us what happens”. He was clinically dead for a couple of minutes. He maintained that there was nothing post-mortem when he first died. Of course, he is now, once again dead.</description>

		<description>4. Ah... are we talking about Afghanistan?

Truth is - even if I&#039;m on the wrong topic - most people have simply lost interest. Once dramatic headlines fade, people return to their own mundane little existence, unless they&#039;re the people being affected.</description>

		<description>No. 4. - Does this just fully prove your point if I admit that I have actually no idea what you are referring to?</description>

		<description>Angus, yes it has (and Andrew, sorry for hijacking the topic).

There is probably a certain irony in the conclusion that there &lt;em&gt;could&lt;/em&gt; be life after death &lt;em&gt;because&lt;/em&gt; no one has &quot;actually come back and told us what happens&quot;. And I really hope that &quot;what lies for the soul ... is totally up in the air&quot; wasn&#039;t intended as as bad of a pun as it sounds.

Spending eternity with soggy biscuits in milk doesn&#039;t appeal to me, especially after the milk&#039;s gone off. But having no nerves, neurons, or neurotransmitters, and therefore no method of sensory perception, I guess it wouldn&#039;t be so bad - though not so good either.

Drawing on your reference to the &quot;pearly gates&quot;, derived from Revelation chapter 21, &#039;heaven&#039; is a square area with walls about 2400km long and 64m high, with 3 gates (each gate supposedly being a &lt;b&gt;single&lt;/b&gt; pearl) on each side. This gives heaven an area somewhere between that of India and Australia. That&#039;s a lot of room for milk and Oreos™, but not much room for everyone (at least all the good ones) who&#039;ve ever died. Though if &#039;souls&#039; have no mass - people don&#039;t lose weight at the exact moment they die - and hence no volume, I guess heaven would provide ample area for everyone. As would a teapot... possibly, the same &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell%27s_teapot&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;teapot that is orbiting Mars&lt;/a&gt;. (Incidentally, the bible says nothing at all about Peter waiting at any one of those &lt;em&gt;12&lt;/em&gt; &#039;pearly gates&#039;.)

Having not yet died, at least to the best of my knowledge (though there is the theory that I have died in countless parallel universes), I can&#039;t say with absolute certainty that there isn&#039;t something after death, but in all of human history, the only thing that has been &lt;em&gt;proven&lt;/em&gt; is that life after death is merely something hoped for.

So all that said, since no one really knows, I believe that people should follow the underlying principles of almost every religion, as echoed by Bill and Ted&#039;s Excellent Adventure: &quot;Be... excellent to each other. And... party on dudes.&quot;</description>

		<description>&quot;Bagging people cool? I don’t think so!&quot;

So you are saying you never bag anyone out?

Think of how boring life would be with out bagging people out there would be no woman&#039;s day, Perez Hilton, conversations would be come boring even some songs wouldn&#039;t exist. 

Bagging people is just another way for people to express themselves. Everyone is interested in what is going on in other peoples lives and want to have their say on things that have nothing to do with them. It is called being human, some people do it more then others.

Heck, I bag out a different person every hour.</description>
