Justify Thyself

[Cephas]

Here's the deal: I'm bored, and my main app is down. I've recently had training which gives insight into how a C-Level executive thinks, and I will now apply it.

As the leader of the TAO Theocratic Party, I have decided to purge the world, and you may just be a part that is to be cleansed. You now have a chance to justify your existence, thereby not being purged from existence. You have only a single post to do so, and once you have been wiped from the board, you may no longer post here. If you are passed, you may give feedback as to whether or not someone else attempting to justify himself/herself should be passed, but if I find you to be un-just in your judgment, you may yet be purged.

I will say only this: I look to the future of this world as I consider your self-justification. Speak accordingly.

Begin justification!

[kegsworth]

I -Kegsworth Von Beerkeg- acknowledge the fact that I have sinned, and fallen short of a role model. I realize the error in my ways and am ready to make a change . . . for the better. I only make the mistakes I do, because I am ignorant to the truth. Please show me the light, oh Cephas, and I will forever change my ways. Justification never smelled so sweet.

I hereby justify myself with the following examples:


I am a keeper of the peace, wanting neither strife nor mal-content with fellow forumers.
I am a fair yet stern individual making a perfect candidate for Self-Justification.
I am kegsworth.


Make thy decision.

[uniquinous]

Thank you for the opportunity of presenting my claim before yourself, Lord Cephas, and this most august TAO audience. I would like to set before you three main points to justify my existance here.

Intellectualism and Maturity
First I must point out that I am of sound mind and judgement. Now while these qualities might initially appear to be a bare minimum expectation for any rational actor, my fellow forumers have clearly shown that such is not the case. This leads me directly to my second subpoint: I tend to use this judgement in a very stable manner. While it is indeed quite common to observe most forumers act a bit crazy from time to time, you can be assured my continued existance on this forum is bound to continue the same rational arguments and valid points.

Knowledgable
Clearly though this forum is used for more then simple banter, and this is directly where my extensive knowledge comes into play. Now you will be quick to note that there are many users here who happen to know a lot about this game. However, my skill set extends not only throughout the breath of TAO, but also the depth of computer science. As such, I am able to seamlessly integrate the two knowlege pools to provide insightful and otherwise unknown intellectual points, as described above. Outside of this game however, I have the beginning of an in depth medical training. This naturally leads me onto my last point.

Usefulness
Clearly having ownership of such information and ability to use it would be worthless unless it actually was utilized to its full extent; and I can assure you that is exactly my daily objective. This has come in the form of intellectual discussion, creating a moderator toolbar, helping other usres with a variety of problems, and even assisting with other people's coding needs. Despite the great capacity for dorkiness, I still somehow manage to remain a cute little ducky.

Clearly this justification comes from the enriched background and constructive additions I contribute to this forum. Now I use these forum examples as they are indicative of my greater personality, while allowing a known medium for you to truly ascertain my abilities. Due to this, and all of the above, I humbly ask for your approval.

Thank you for your time.

Satire is important in any democratic society. I provide lots of satirical commentary, a vital part of this free natio-- Oh, wait. yeah I guess I don't work well with this system.


Off with my head!

Sound judgment and geekiness could be useful. Grovelling is not. You have been passed, but we will tolerate no further simpering. Yes-men do not further the cause. :dry:

Indeed you are correct. Off with his head!

We have no use for someone who mocks the system.

Unfortunately, you are not yet cool enough. Stone cold would be better, and six feet under. You have been cleansed.

[DOCTOR DEVICE]

Oh Lord Chepas! Except thy peace offering to the Gods of this here thread! I feel I am worthy for your challenge!

I am humourous, yet know when to be serious. Most of my posts are jokes, but that is only because I play this game for fun . Yet in times in debate, I can hold my own.

I am loyal to thee clan, very active recruiter. I am fair to all the applicants, and rarely deny everyone. This is a virtue, I believe, that is worth it's salt; Tolerance and loyalty.

I do not back down, so if you challenge be ready for a fight! :bb:

I love you, and uniq! :kiss: (and I'm really good at foot massages :wink2:)

Accept me Lord Chephas! I feel I am raedy for your test! :worthy:

Calling me Chephas: Strike one! (you've ruined my name to the point of likening it to 'Cheap Ass', this goes beyond the redeemable!)
Grovelling (and especially voicing your love for me): Strike two! (didn't I cover the grovel bit just earlier?)
Bastardizing the English language: Strike three! (The TAOCPP will have your head for that one...)
Talking about a clan: Strike four! (honestly! Where did you get it in your head that this has anything to do with a clan?)
The foot massage thing: Strike five! (bribery will get you nowhere, it is the future at stake)
Stating that you rarely deny anyone: Strike six! (we must have our standards)

So, that is two outs in baseball terms. We need a fitting execution for you. You shall have all of your pubic hairs pulled out with a pair of rusty tweezers, then braided into a rope by Slovak orphans, then be hung with the rope of puberty.

Next? :)

You will also have all of your limbs removed, and all who pass near you will be compelled to kick you. You are henceforth to be known as Matt Strike.

Your secret text is of no benefit to the regime; if we are to use it for code, we would need you on either end. Neither does your join date count for anything. If anything, it proves that you are old, and addled in the head.

While a desire to grow into maturity is laudable, it does not outweigh the flaws listed above. You will be purged by drakes on fire.

Looks like these two get answered together. Both have taken the approach of Cat in Red Dwarf (and if this is correct, and you can confirm it in some manner, I would be more than happy to rep you for it). Regardless of inference to British commedies, I must state that this is not a 'justify your existence' thread, but rather a 'justify whether you should continue to exist' thread.

You will be given the curse of the Spirit of the Age as shown in CS Lewis' 'Pilgrim's Regress', and will no longer think of yourselves as sexy or cool. Shiny, carry out the sentence!

An intersting tactic to employ, but as Danny Kaye sang it, 'you can never out-fox The Fox'. The symphony dubbed the 'Unfinished Symphony' written by Schubert was not in the true sense of the form a Symphony expressly on account of the fact that it was unfinished, therefore did not follow symphonic form. By the same token, an unfinished application is by definition not an application, therefore is void. All those who do not apply will be purged by default, therefore you are slated to be purged.

We will grant you 48 hours (perhaps too much time, but we allow for holidays) from the time stamp on this post to finish your application, or you will be purged (this gives us ample time to come up with a sufficiently dastardly end for you should you attempt to flee from our judgment).

[Serge]

You never accepted or rejected my previous application, Cephas.

However, if you would like me to spell it out for you, there are several reasons.

I am:

Readily available. I'm always online to help better the world.
Really nice. I'm a nice guy, I can always cheer people up when they're blue.
Awesome.
Arguably the best looking person on the planet.
Witty, oh so witty.
Willing to help you in any way. Well, almost any way.
Really good at most video games. You never know when that'll come in handy.
'Racking my brains for another thing about myself. Which shows effort!!

[ReTodd]

I bring nothing to the proverbial table, unlike Serge who I am still pissed at.

[Lonely Tylenol]

The symphony dubbed the 'Unfinished Symphony' written by Schubert was not in the true sense of the form a Symphony expressly on account of the fact that it was unfinished, therefore did not follow symphonic form. By the same token, an unfinished application is by definition not an application, therefore is void. All those who do not apply will be purged by default, therefore you are slated to be purged.

Conversely you could say the "Unfinished Symphony" was VERY finished, in the sense that any and all work that would be done to alter the symphony has been done--the work is set in stone. Since there is no potential for change in the future, it is "finished" in the literal sense.

From another perspective, the "Unfinished Symphony" may be considered finished because by being "unfinished", it has become a brilliant and notorious work of art in its own right--Schubert could have considered his first two movements flawless and never completed the second two. The benefits of this were twofold--first, the brilliance of the first two pieces captivated the audience and left them begging for more, as well as leaving the audience to finish it according to their own imagination; second, the first two movements were almost flawless, if not completely so--by altering the piece as a whole to extend it to a complete symphony he would have to alter his vision and sacrifice perfection.

My application will remain unchanged! You may judge accordingly, but the integrity of one's favourable attributes has already been compromised if one needs to explain himself to justify them!

EDIT: Oh yeah, try overdosing me on Tylenol or some other domestic drug. It's not particularly devious, but it is a fitting demise for someone such as myself.

Here's the deal: I'm bored, and my main app is down. I've recently had training which gives insight into how a C-Level executive thinks, and I will now apply it.

As the leader of the TAO Theocratic Party, I have decided to purge the world. You may just be a part that is to be cleansed. You now have a chance to justify your existence: thereby, not being purged. You have only a single post to do so. Once you have been wiped from the board, you may no longer post here. If you are passed, you may give feedback as to whether or not someone else attempting to justify himself/ herself should be passed. If I find you to be un-just in your judgment, you may yet be purged.

I will say only this, "I look to the future of this world as I consider your self-justification." Speak accordingly.

Begin justification!
I laugh at your judgment and mock the proceedings.

Only I can be the assessor of myself.
You also have too many run on sentences. You should note the changes above.

edit: I have further corrected your initial post as I have found more mistakes in it.

[T3km4n]

It's all Judas' fault.

[andalite]

Um...
I'm a girl and you need more girls to balance out the guy-girl ratio.
Plus I'll bake you cookies :)

If they have those mini m&m's in it, I'll follow you anywhere for them ;)

[Cephas]

You never accepted or rejected my previous application, Cephas.

However, if you would like me to spell it out for you, there are several reasons.

I am:

Readily available. I'm always online to help better the world.
Really nice. I'm a nice guy, I can always cheer people up when they're blue.
Awesome.
Arguably the best looking person on the planet.
Witty, oh so witty.
Willing to help you in any way. Well, almost any way.
Really good at most video games. You never know when that'll come in handy.
'Racking my brains for another thing about myself. Which shows effort!!
You are:

Really in for it.
Rearin' for a beating
Awful.
Arrogant.
Wise in your own estimation (read, a wise guy).
Whoring yourself.
Rectal pain.
Reaching, as in, really stretching the acronym.
!!

Fortunately, we happen to have an opening for someone who wants to work toward improving the world. You are passed. RRAAWWRR!!

[Cephas]

I bring nothing to the proverbial table, unlike Serge who I am still pissed at.
Speaking of proverbial tables, you will be strapped down to one, and given unto lusty ewoks. When they are done having their way with you, should you survive, you will receive the same treatment at the hands of wookies. You will surely meet your end there.

Conversely you could say the "Unfinished Symphony" was VERY finished, in the sense that any and all work that would be done to alter the symphony has been done--the work is set in stone. Since there is no potential for change in the future, it is "finished" in the literal sense.

From another perspective, the "Unfinished Symphony" may be considered finished because by being "unfinished", it has become a brilliant and notorious work of art in its own right--Schubert could have considered his first two movements flawless and never completed the second two. The benefits of this were twofold--first, the brilliance of the first two pieces captivated the audience and left them begging for more, as well as leaving the audience to finish it according to their own imagination; second, the first two movements were almost flawless, if not completely so--by altering the piece as a whole to extend it to a complete symphony he would have to alter his vision and sacrifice perfection.

Still, in the technical sense, the unfinished symphony is NOT a symphony. You do not have an application. As you have stated that this will not change, I must judge accordingly.

You have expressed disinterest in changing, and we will not tolerate individuals who are unable or unwilling to change for the sake of the new world. I will give you up to the Grand inquisitor for a suitable punishment.

I accept your changes at present. You would do well to note that I will re-write the English language to suit my nefarious purposes, and your changes will be wrong then.

Your mockery of the proceedings indicates that you must be assessed by us. You will be forced to sit in a room and correct essays written by Grade 7 students using thesauri for the first time. You will have a red pen with nearly dry ink. Eventually, we imaging that you will find a way to commit seppuku with either the pen or the papers.

A girl? You are passed for the furtherance of the human race. We need breeding stock... :eek:

Pass me a cookie, will ya?

Overdosing with Tylenol would be a blessing, Advil would be a much better choice but still too lenient.

Instead you will be cut in half so you can no longer be called a palindrome in any way. You will then be filled with lead and sewed back together to live out your days unpalindromic and unfinished just as your application was.

If you are lucky lead poisoning will kick in quickly.

[Shiny Flors]

Every set of last people on earth needs a sexy man to repopulate :rolleyes:

I'm cool.


Fortunately for the new human race neither of you are sexy, cool nor passed.

Judgement together means punishment together. Since sexiness and coolness go hand in hand, you two will be purged as one. You will both be dismembered and then formed as one. From now on the two headed, 4 armed, 4 legged creature of Draquist and Realist shall be known as Requistein.

[MokoToko]

A girl? You are passed for the furtherance of the human race. We need breeding stock... :eek:

I came out of your closet. Is that close enough?

[Swartzstrom]

Sucks that I got purged, Cephas. *shrug* Oh well. I'm done with TAO.

[ko71991]

Stop that, you're staying.

[Swartzstrom]

What's the point? My time here is over. I mean, seriously, the Forums have become boring to me.

[ko71991]

Heh. Aiight, see you some time in the future then.

[Swartzstrom]

That and using proxy websites just to get on the Forums because Realist still hasn't responded to my request to get me un-IPbanned despite the fact that he said he'd do it if I could get that guy to stop spamming TAO Forums.

So g'bye.

[mushroom_girl]

I can't be purged.

After all, you need girls around.

[ko71991]

She speaks the truth. And I can't be purged... You need more numbers around.

Why am I excited at the prospect of soaking a bunch of essays in red ink and dashing the hopes and dreams of a passing mark to a bunch of 7th graders? :rtfm: :butcher:
Just so you know, I will sneak in a carton of red pens to do the job it's belligerent due: even if it means an uncomfortable few moments. :shocked: :eek:
