  • Man... I'm disappointed.. go watch trainspotting. Its one of those films that gives perspective in life. btw.. the last sentence in that quote I left out cause it radically changes the entire point, the full quote is as this:

Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?

  • If you have it, you don't need it.
    If you need it, you don't have it.
    If you have it, you need more of it.
    If you have more of it, you don't need less of it.
    You need it to get it.
    And you certainly need it to get more of it.
    But if you don't already have any of it to begin with, you can't get any of it to get started, which means you really have no idea how to get it in the first place, do you?
    You can share it, sure, you can even stockpile it if you'd like, but you can't fake it.
    Wanting it, needing it, wishing for it.
    The point is, if you've never had any of it, ever, people just seem to know.

    1. Open Notepad
    2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
    3. Save
    4. Open the file in Notepad again

    You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

    Who else finds it weird to write down [OK, it's the nineties, copy-paste] such a long string of 'words of wisdom', then only to leave out the last sentence because it does not fit your point ? :D

    Sorry, thread hijacking completed. I don't have a quote of my own, I hate quotes, and you can quote me on that.

    Best quote yet! ;)


    :lol: This reminds me of a famous last words quote:

    Go on, get out! Last words are for fools who haven't said enough!
    Who: Karl Marx, asked by his housekeeper what his last words were
