I dont believe in "in the real world"
you are already using a virtual world to try and substantiate something "in the real world" without visual proof. Try something else.(listens to screams of where's the peektures?!?!)
---> But i must say that you have pretty good language skills. Put it to better use in the real world!

It is just different for everybody
Like impossible for some people to grow tall,it is not a certain definition or for someone to deem so -
If everything is possible, can u tell me how do i get travel time to the future?Originally posted by Cystaire:Only small minded people throw this word around like it means anything.
In the real world, one Rambo standing with a M60 handheld can defeat an army of enemies. All standing in the open and attacking one by one.
In the real world, when the odds are bad, somehow a hero always beats the odds, everytime.
In the real world, all astronauts are trained biologist, oil drillers are trained astronauts and doctors are necessarily scientists.
In the real world, any downtrodden fellow with a surname "Chow" suddenly has hidden martial arts power (or learns how to talk like a shrewd lawyer from prostitutes) and can redeem himself to become the king of the world.
In the real world, you only need "membership" to transform three poor Singaporeans into three rich Singaporeans.
Impossible is meaningless. Everything is actually possible. -
will i ever get the chance to hug MyPillowTalks's pillow ?
is it possible ? -
I think thread starter is telling moderation.
"ImPossible to be ban" -
Hmm, those sound more like something out of a 'common movie clichés" list.
Anyway, pertaining to the topic, I was pondering: if there is no such thing as 'impossib'e' in this world, then impossible = impossible.
But if impossibility is impossible, then there exists one impossibility, which is impossibility itself. Now if this impossibility exists, it means impossibility is a possibility, and thus it exists... paradoxical stuff... Or Something Like That. Haha.
Speaking of paradoxes, try answering this question: "Can an omnipotent being create something he cannot lift?"

right..its getting rather irritating to see people abusing the phrase 'Nothing is Impossible'
try jumping down from 1000 feet with no equipments at all and survive..
or if you want a simpler task, try jumping down from 12 storeys, land on your feet, and carry on walking after that normally, right now..
im not implying that we should have a negative mindset and think that everything is impossible; im just saying that its high time people stop abusing this phrase.. -
really, stop trying to use words to confuse everyoneOriginally posted by Cystaire:But even impossible is not impossible, so confusion is nowhere near as confusing.
There is no unknown. Only small minded people say there is something we don't know. For people who believe that the impossible is not impossible, unknown is not unknown.
There is no weakness. If you believe in weakness, you are weak. Once you disbelieve in weakness you will be unsuccessful if you try to not become unstrong.
there is no unknown? perhaps some time in the future, but certainly not now. its a fact that we all know..
regarding the weakness part, i beg to differ. its the fact that we know that we're weak in something that makes us strive to improve, to turn our weaknesses into strength, or at least prevent it from becomming our achilles heel.. -
looking at the TS's posts...
i think he's confused regarding whats the real world and whats the virtual world -
Well, like I said, that looked more like a listing of common movie/drama series clichés, done in a different, likely sarcastic, way. Ignore the 'real world' part of those sentences and you'll realise that they are quite true... in the reel world.
'Impossible is nothing' (and its permutations) is quite cliched now, ja? -
You are the sort of people who would agree that impossible is not impossible. Of course you will never understand this thread!Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Wah lao... I said so clear in my first post for this thread...
Haizz.... misunderstood. Waste my brain cells!
It's all right, everyone is different. Now be the best that you can be because the sky is the limit! -
Precisely.Originally posted by the Bear:Nothing is Impossible?
That is usually said by the people who do not have to do it.
Of course nothing is technically impossible. But some things are so very very very very difficult that their resolution is no longer meaningful. Once you actually do it, you will feel the pain.
People who don't know or don't care throw around the catchphrase "nothing is impossible" casually as if it means anything.
Great observation! -

Every one of those "real world" scenarios actually come from a specific movie.
As for my dig about "nothing is impossible", I was making fun of how people play word games to make themselves sound more profound, so as to appear smart or sell more consumer products.
Word games are horrible because they confuse concepts and mask the ignorance of the person using them. In this current world of already very noisy information, word games should be strictly frowned upon.
Other often abused catchphrases include "change is the only constant" and "not making a choice is also a choice." -
some pple are too smart for their own gd..
or at least they think tt they're smart.. ha.. -
Believe it or not, there was this incident happens decades ago when a passenger plane explodes (by a terrorist bomb inside the cabin) while mid-air and this air steward was propelled out of the exploding plane and fell more than 10 000m all the way to the ground, she hit the ground suffering serious injuries, but survive to receive the Guiness world record for the surviving the highest fall without any equipment human being!Originally posted by mystiv:right..its getting rather irritating to see people abusing the phrase 'Nothing is Impossible'

God prob cushioned her fall.Originally posted by Texcoco II:Believe it or not, there was this incident happens years ago when the a passenger plane explodes (by a terrorist bomb inside the cabin) while mid-air and this stewardess was propelled out of the exploding plane and fell more than 10 000m all the way to the ground, she hit the ground suffering only serious injuries, but survive to receive the Guiness world record for the surviving the highest fall without any equipment human being! -
But did not cushion the fall of the hundreds of other passengers.Originally posted by VivId CrItiQuE:God prob cushioned her fall.

Not really.Originally posted by VivId CrItiQuE:some pple are too smart for their own gd..

I will never tell anyone that they are too smart for their own good, because I am not smart enough to make that judgment.
Only people who think that other people are too smart for their own good are too smart for their own good. By their own opinion, of course. -
oh yeah btw she's the only survivior from that doomed planeOriginally posted by Cystaire:But did not cushion the fall of the hundreds of other passengers.
