Elaborate on why drinking or smoking marijuana would mean death?
Gin says that drinking or smoking marijuana would cause me to forsake my beliefs. This makes me die.
There's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.

You must not imagine that for beings like you and us there can be laughter. The low men laugh, and we envy them. But for us, the higher ones, there is no laughter, only an unending vigil, purely serious, stretching on into the night.

Are you arguing, then, that they effectively can't win the bet because any of them that would win can't collect, because you would be "Dead"?

The awkward moment when the explanation is more confusing that the original statement
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.

They can collect, but:

1) it won't happen anyway, they can't win the bet
2) even if they did, the person who ends up being forced to give them money is not me. That hypothetical person's beliefs are too different from mine.

It follows from this reasoning, combined with your own proposal for dealing with dissent, that you want everyone in the world who disagrees with you to be killed.

Hey, now, you make it sound like I'm a supervillain. I don't like it either.

Does it give you pause at all when a straightforward extrapolation of your ideas,
that you agree with,
phrased in simple, straightforward terms, "make
it sound like [you're] a supervillain"?

The tone of #2490 made it seem like you objected to my description.

The description is accurate, but you should use less loaded words. "You want to kill everyone" is technically true but might convey the wrong idea to people.

This is exactly what I mean by loaded language. If you think about it, I am killing a mere 7 billion people in order to save the universe, so it I am saving n lives, where n is the population of the universal utopia minus seven billion. That is the actions of a superhero.
