OR, like for support even though they don't agree and then take the like back so all of history won't judge them on that one like.

I've noticed some people like my posts, then immediately withdraw their likes. Is it my avatar?

It's cause they like what you post, then realize who you are.

Or maybe they're on mobile? I can't count how many times I've accidentally liked a post while trying to scroll down on my phone. Stupid touch screens.

Hey, remember that time I actually had a conversation with you?

 

Me neither.

I may be a violent hoodlum with a funny haircut, but I'm not middle-aged.

I never had a conversation with Adolf Hitler either, and I don't think he's such a good guy.

Did Aby really just compare me to Hitler?

I just read the ending, finally completed the book 1984, for some reason quotes aren't working properly on my phone so I'm replying to whoever was in discussion.

 

 

I believe Winston died in both respects, the bullet through the brain (right at the end) and the party won, very disappointing.

However, did Winston ever get released from the ministry of love? Or had he simply hallucinated the whole period after his release? Like the white chess pieces always won.

 

 

I'll quote the last few paragraphs from the book.

 

A shrill trumpet call had pierced the air. It was the bulletin! Victory! It always meant victory when a trumpet call preceded the news. A sort of electric thrill ran through the cafe. Even the waiters had started and pricked up their ears

The trumpet-call had let loose an enormous volume of noise. Already an excited voice was gabbling from the telescreen, but even as it started it was almost drowned by a roar of cheering from outside. The news had run round the streets like magic. He could hear just enough of what was issuing from the telescreen to realize that it had all happened, as he had foreseen; a vast seaborne armada had secretly assembled a sudden blow in the enemy's rear, the white arrow tearing across the tail of the black. Fragments of triumphant phrases pushed themselves through the din: 'Vast strategic manoeuvre -- perfect co-ordination -- utter rout -- half a million prisoners -- complete demoralization -- control of the whole of Africa -- bring the war within measurable distance of its end victory -- greatest victory in human history -- victory, victory, victory!'

 

Under the table Winston's feet made convulsive movements. He had not stirred from his seat, but in his mind he was running, swiftly running, he was with the crowds outside, cheering himself deaf. He looked up again at the portrait of Big Brother. The colossus that bestrode the world! The rock against which the hordes of Asia dashed themselves in vain! He thought how ten minutes ago -- yes, only ten minutes -- there had still been equivocation in his heart as he wondered whether the news from the front would be of victory or defeat. Ah, it was more than a Eurasian army that had perished! Much had changed in him since that first day in the Ministry of Love, but the final, indispensable, healing change had never happened, until this moment.

 

The voice from the telescreen was still pouring forth its tale of prisoners and booty and slaughter, but the shouting outside had died down a little. The waiters were turning back to their work. One of them approached with the gin bottle. Winston, sitting in a blissful dream, paid no attention as his glass was filled up. He was not running or cheering any longer. He was back in the Ministry of Love, with everything forgiven, his soul white as snow. He was in the public dock, confessing everything, implicating everybody. He was walking down the white-tiled corridor, with the feeling of walking in sunlight, and an armed guard at his back. The longhoped-for bullet was entering his brain.

 

He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.

 

Hmm, I am pretty sure that

his release is real and that the only fantasy in those paragraphs is that of his execution. He even meets Julia on the street and we are told of their physical scars and such, remember? Also, take notice of the phrase "gin-scented tears", meaning that he really was at the café drinking.

 

Ah I see

 

 

So Winston dies spiritually, and the bullet through the brain is simply the metaphor. Winston Smith dies, and the physical shell remains.

Yes, I have. And when I have posted something, it's always in a private forum and never anything too serious. So, no, I regret nothing.

Many times. Once, I made a tasteless comment in a debate thread just because I wanted to call Ziggy "soggy".

Seriously though, rerail this train.

I would like to rerail the train by asking my question that was skipped over on the last page which was.... what would happen if you ran someone over in a combine harvester?

[mr quick]

The blades would probably lacerate the individual's skin badly, but I believe it wouldn't be impossible to survive.

I think they demonstrated it pretty well in San Andreas. Also the remake of "War of the Worlds," hume-chum.

For how long do we have these little buttons?

 

I'm amazed, never saw this option to hide sections.

 

[Edmachine]

Since the beginning. (of V2)

It's awesome, all I have showing is Community and Gangs (OGA). And I don't have to scroll down anymore to get to my favourite forums; can skip the sh*tholes.

[mr quick]

I only use the sidebar. I tried removing all the forums but it just looked weird.

[GTA_stu]

Wait what. I swear I don't have that button. I'm getting shafted. Where is it??

 

Edit: Oh it was somehow obscured because of the cookie policy thing, it's there now. Doesn't do all that much though anyways.

It took me more than a year to find it..

 

I've hidden the sidebar here, feels better for me.
