    To paraphrase Tom Scott: Warning! Humans are immune to most halting-problem paradoxes!

    "...when you stare into the abyss, the abyss doesn't just stare back. It begins to whisper." Damn, that's a good line!
    Somebody needs to write a creepy pasta around that idea.

    1st story related.
    Emperor Krazek: We do not fear the human attack. Our more powerful ships, our superior troops, our superior technology...
    Advisor: Will be useless. The humans will strike here. (points to the emperors head)
    Advisor: They'll manipulate emotions. Get people to act contrary to their nature. *You wont be able to trust your senses, your friends, your memories.*
    (Emperor seems to be looking as something the others cant see)
    ???: After all, what is real, when our perceptions, cannot be trusted.
    Advisor: Emperor?
    EMPEROR!
    (emperor snaps out some sort of vision)
    Advisor: Don't you see your majesty? It's already begun.

    I do love the poems of HFY.
    Particularly “we responded in kind”

    The second one is, ,somewhat, reminiscent of some of Kipling's work.

    If you don't accept the peace that they offer in one and then you'll receive the war that they hold in the other

    • @wrath2501

      We have love in us the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If we cannot satisfy the one, we will indulge the other.

    When you stare into the abyss, you may realize the abyss is a mirror, or you may not. That doesn't change the fact, we are the dark, we are the monster we fight. When we walk throught the valley, of the shadow of death, we fear no evil, because this is our home, and the only peace we know, is the one the end us all.

    They can take the peace of plenty, or that of the unburied dead.

    We come in hope of peace because we have become bored with conquest.

    I got a minute and a half video on the Spanish inquisition before this video and is the most I've ever been taught about it
    So we began good even before the video XD
    That first story did get a laugh out of me XD
