TET: Riva of Dreams, Or What is a Bumple Anyway?

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

Gods, some posters... ''Communal'' doesn't mean ''Communist''. Who the fuck actually thinks that?

Well, doing things in a communal manner is sort of like communism.

Not necessarily, nor does community implies Communism as the idea.

So, basically, not do anything with even the slightest chance to make you better?

Suffer through it and strengthen your immune system. *nods*

There's a chance suffering through the disease actually compromises your immune system. Which means, basically, you'll prolly die the next time a disease rears its ugly head.

[Ordenburg]

Actually traditional medicine is quite a safe bet. Some medicine at least, I mean, not snake-oil, but all natural things are better than chemicals in my book

I don't think "garlic for bird flu" quite qualifies as "a safe bet."

But onion juice helps soothe a sore throat.

That's not a safe way to improve your immune system

[The United States of Arms]

Take some garlic.

But at some point in your life you'll likely need a doctor. Garlic is yummy, but no home remedy will do you much good if you break a bone, get cancer, etc.

If I break a bone, or get cancer, I'll go see a doctor. But if not, I'm staying home.

Well, in that case, sure, you're right. But generally speaking, I mean.

Neither is replacing traditional medicine with natural stuff. Even more if the disease is serious.

[Izandai]

So... witch-doctor woowoo remedies?

Actually traditional medicine is quite a safe bet. Some medicine at least, I mean, not snake-oil, but all natural things are better than chemicals in my book

EVERYTHING IS CHEMICALS! EVERYTHING THAT EXISTS IS MADE OF CHEMICALS! THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE CHEMICALS IN HERBAL REMEDIES AND THE CHEMICALS IN THE BOTTLE THAT YOUR DOCTOR GIVES YOU IS THAT THE ONES IN THE BOTTLE WILL HELP YOU NOT GET SICK!

Natural is always best. Take it from me, a student of witch-doctory

Oh well, then the earth will be rid of my horrid and annoying existence.

It's kind of like some people are all "I don't want chemicals in my water."

Hey. Silly face.

Water's a chemical.

[Izandai]

Wow. You're just a terrible person.

I thought you already knew that. I've said it a million times.

Yeah, but I thought you were just doing the self-deprecating low self-esteem thing. Turns out you were actually right.

>:3 I'm pretty sure people understand what "some people" mean.

Yeah, but there's definitely a connection. It all depends on context.

In the context I'm referring to, there is no connection.

If I break a bone, or get cancer, I'll go see a doctor. But if not, I'm staying home.

Keep in mind that not all diseases are as obvious as others. Someone who isn't a trained medical professional might not know how sick they are until it's too late.

Being apathetic and stubborn doesn't make her a terrible person.

Serous disease, go to the doctor. Other not so serious crap, stay home, go to an herbalist.

I expected better from you, Uri.

So you're going to always stay at home, further weakening your immune system by not exercising it against the multitude of low-grade pathogens that permeate our world? Yeah, great idea.

We hardly ever get sick anyways.

[The United States of Arms]

I'm goin' home, gonna load my shotgun
Wait by the door and light a cigarette
If he wants a fight well now he's got one
And he ain't seen me crazy yet
He slapped my face and he shook me like a rag doll
Don't that sound like a real man
I'm going to show him what a little girls are made of
Gunpowder and lead

Lol love that song.
