Sunscreen. Problem solved.

 

Sunscreen isn't fool-proof. You can't put sunscreen absolutely everywhere. Sunscreen costs money. Sunscreen is annoying to put on/wear/take off.

Staying inside > putting on sunscreen and going outside. 

Plus if you stay inside you don't get hit with 500 billion degree weather.

That's 500 billion degrees celsius, not farenheit BTW. Just to be clear that we're using AD measurements as opposed to the ones we used BC.

Or you could be like me and get deliciously tanned whenever you spend any time outside
But yeah, I'm with you girlfriend. **** the outdoors. I keep my blinds shut. **** THE SUN.

I spent so much time in the sun at one point in my life people thought I was Half-Indian for a while when I'm actually Chinese

Me being photophobic also doesn't help the outside's cause just FTR. 

Why/How can you play the GI so much then? Isn't hunter mode annoying?

That article is from 2008, and considering how far research has progressed in the last 4 years since then, it's a load of crap.

I am well aware of the dangers of it, both my mother and grandmother have had serious surgery done to remove melanomas. Use a DECENT sunscreen, not a heap of **** tube that you buy from coles for 80c. I've been in the sun and spending time at the beach since I was born, I haven't had any issues at all.

Alas, if you really wish to not go outside, then whatever works for you. I enjoy the outdoors, and you saying "You're going to get cancer and die" isn't going to do anything.

My apologies, I didn't look at the date on that.

My main point is that while sunscreen will protect you from getting sunburnt, it is not effectively protecting you from skin cancer, which is the result of UVA rays and not UVB. I'm also not saying don't go outside, because one of my favorite activities, swimming, I much prefer to do outside because I like to enjoy the warmth from the sun. And I have used the heap of **** tube because people love to steal sunscreen around a pool deck, and I have to say that thing is worse than a placebo. It doesn't even give the illusion that it's working, it just gives you the illusion that you are actually rubbing **** all over yourself.

Asians generally dont get sun burnt as much as *cough* Ang Mo / Qui Lo's / white people. We just turn really dark

Every time I see this photo I'm reminded of something. Today I clicked what.

DR, you look just like Meryl Streep there.

Now I demand that you go on an "attention whoring" spree because I said that. That way some ****s can point it out and I can point back. They can forum gang-bang me, correct my grammar, and call me a knight. I can swear, have the forum censor **** me over, swear some more at that and call them ****s. People who like them can white knight them, and people that like me can defend my dubious honour. And the world burners can sit back and enjoy the flames. In the end we can all hate each other a little more.

**** me, but the last ten pages of this thread has been a ****en disgrace. On all sides! While it may not mean a lot, I've lost respect for a lot of people I previously thought were cool.

You humans are all racist.

Also I disagree. I know plenty of Asians who will consistently get burned more than some of my more pastey friends.

Wow. I see there were some disagreements while I was gone. I'm going to post a few more photos to keep the thread on track.

Here are some light-up trees when I went to the Sea World Amusement Park:



Here are some penguins in an exhibit at the same park:



And I was surprised one time when I came across Jalapeno Chocolate:



When I also heard there was such a thing as Bacon Chocolate, I was like, "WHAAA??!!"

Ooh Sea World! Now that's a place I haven't seen in a very, very long time. I should go again.

I've tried bacon chocolate at a fair before. It was so hard I thought I had broken a tooth but it was good. I think that jalapeño one would be too spicy for me

I haven't been there in a while myself. It's not too far from where I live. There's also a Fiesta Texas across from it. I had a 2012 Season Pass for that place, so I went there every now and then.

Hopefully, soon enough, I can taste bacon chocolate for myself.

 I check this thread from time to time
...and +10 pages overnight is a bad sign
Here's helping it back on track

Well this was me in 2010 braving the outside world, without sunscreen!

Some people have lot of pictures of themselves.

I have like 10 of me from my entire life. And only about 5 recent ones. >_>

That's cause nobody wants to take photos of you Sirian, and you don't get out of the house enough anyway... 

 

Meaning I don't constantly take photos of myself.  

And you're right about the second part. Why the hell would I go outside? Summer is too hot to go outside, winter too cold. Autumn/Spring I have games to play.

Summer can be spent at the beach getting skin cancer so that you die at age 30, Winter can be spent doing fun physical stuff, because you won't melt into a puddle of goo before 9am. 

Oh wait, we're gamers, so the sunlight burns our skin... Well, your skin anyway, I like the outdoors... 

 

And I exercise.

I just do it inside where I'm not going to get cancer.

Sunscreen. Problem solved.

Too bad sunscreen doesn't work. Sunscreen protects (for the most part) from UVB, while the UVA rays are the ones that are going to give you cancer. And before anyone says I'm a liar I have plenty of experience with sunscreen. I played water polo for 4 years in high school so I used my fair share of sunscreen.

Also here's an article.

Whatevs, my derm says differently. And I've spend considerable time in a lightbox for my illness and sunscreen worked just fine with 14,000 megajoules up my ass.

I actually AM Half-Indian and I end up looking full Indian when a tan. Well, not really actually but I get pretty ****ing dark. I never burn! :innocent:

[razrblack]

Wow, I had to skip many messages. What the hell guys. Anyway, back on topic (whatever the topic actually is ), does anybody play Airsoft? I do. (second from the right)




I also truly like to explore abandoned places (buildings, factories, etc). This was a huge abandoned quarry near my house. This photo unfortunately doesn't make it justice, it's way bigger than it looks.

Are you an Albino or allergic to light?

Old places are interesting, there's a history there, it's just waiting to be found.

Definitely, there's so much you can tell just by looking at how things were left. We recently found a relatively new factory abandoned back in 2004. Since there are other active factories with surveillance around it I take thieves weren't very interested. I went inside with a friend, we found an easy access directly from the place where we play Airsoft, and inside we found intact machinery (witch is still scary, and being both employed by companies before we knew the safety rule n.1 of staying the **** away from anything that can move), lab equipement in perfect condition (although left on the floor in a big pile), notes, printouts and lab results. There was a lot to read and know about both the people whom worked there and what they did.

There's also and entire village in northen Italy where I used to go when I was little. It was full of life up until the mid '90s, then it's population fell drastically. From the original population of 1000 in the '20s it came down to 20-30 (mayor included) of today. The whole place looks like this:



It's eerie, completely silent both in the winter and during summer. Nobody goes there anymore and all the old people I remember from my youth are now deceased. Still every corner tells a story of it's own. While entering the buildings themselves is quite difficult and dangerous you can still find old stuff lying around the streets and imagine what it was like living there back then. The whole place itself was built to accomodate the working force of nearby mines witch I actually never found. Those were abandoned in the mid '50s and are now probably gone, submerged by mud and rock.

Up until recently I always tought I had to travel far to actually find interesting places to explore and photograph, but I was very wrong. Thanks to the economic boom and later collapse we now live in a world full of huge abandoned places right under our nose, and it's both exciting and saddening to see all this stuff rust and crumble.
