First of all, if any mods/admins think that this topic is unnecessary, please delete it right away, as I am not trying to break any rules here. Secondly, for everyone that posts in this topic, please follow all of the guidelines in Hive and don't flame one another.

Now, my question for everyone here is: How would you leave your mark on this world? It can be anything: From being the first to invent something or do something, discover something, disprove something, prove something, anything you want. Be as fictional as you like. :) Personally, I would like to be the first person to discover how to teleport.

I'd like to publish an autobiography.

My roommate swears that if I were to ever actually do this, it would be put in the Fiction section, :p


Just to prove that someone who grew up like I did can come out of it FINE.

Spit in the eye of the man if you will.

I shall not elaborate anymore than that.

Make a huge explosion that would be reminded throughout the cosmos.
LOL......

No that would be silly.
Probably just make a good series of books, games, and be well known throughout history.

my mark would be a question mark, It's up to you to spread it.

?

If I'm gone, make sure this gets spread a lot!

Have people answer them.
I don't want recognition as long as we make this world a better place. I'm happy the way I live and you should too. I would like to die a anonymous death that still made a difference in this world. No need for a mark unless it's a question mark :)

mysteriousness on the highest level

now my question is: what did you just read?

I will return the notion of imperialism.

I shall generate enough income to purchase the direlect centre of Australia, creating a kingdom within a nation, called Ossis. In this Kingdom I will plant numerous military bases, which various mercenary contracters can use, and I will start to conquer African, Latino and Carribean states that no-one cares about. Slowly gaining territory, I will ensure my populace recieves above-current-middle class education, shelter and food. In 100 years, I will be known as "The One", "The Saviour", "The Great Hope", with my peoples dominating the socioeconomic heirachy.

By being forever remembered forever as dick joke writers and historians as "The Weapon Maker That Started WW3, and Build His Damn Fortune From Selling Weapons to Nations Involved"

Or as another average Joe. Sounds fine.

Good guys simply don't get as much credit.
Really? I think quite the opposite. It seems that in nearly every good vs. evil movie or story, the good guys end up winning no matter what, and the bad guys always end up losing. Why can't the bad guys win for a change?

True in fiction but not reality. Take WW2 for example, who is the most famous character? Hitler or anyone from the allied? Plus, fame for winning a bloody war; can anyone be good in that case? If we were to go into this deep, there are no good or bad sides, just different point of views. And how often do you hear about good deeds rather than murder and rape? But I see the hole in my earlier text as I wrote "fictionally", so you most definitely have a point.

I agree that the bad guys should win in movies! If I ever were to write a book I'd let them.

I completely agree. There really is no such thing as good or bad, its just different opinions of people.

There is no good or bad, and there is no true or false in war.

Who writes the records of battles? The winners. Who writes the happenings of wars? The winners.

Depending on your point-of-view, the good guys are the bad guys, and vice versa...

There is no good or bad, and there is no true or false in war.

Who writes the records of battles? The winners. Who writes the happenings of wars? The winners.

There is none because both exist simeltaneously. The writing of history is the reward winners get. It's always interesting viewing the story from the losers PoV, or that of another party's.

Discovery of the graviton. Hands down, if I discovered the graviton, I would be happy. It would prove string theory and consolidate all of the universes infinitely diverse behaviors into one equation. The unification of particle physics and astrophysics is pretty high on my list of priorities.

Then we could build ships and get off this planet. I'm sick of watching people kill each other over who's invisible man is real. Or, better yet, we ship them all to another planet. I don't know, leaving mother earth to those hummer driving warmongers seems kind of self centered...

Wow, my head went to a funny place there.

We shipped all our religious fanatics to America once upon a time, see what happened, over 5000 nuclear warheads :p

And about thrice that amount of bomb bunkers in redneck's basements around the same country!

Don't forget the 2012 Bunkers.

And who could forget the Y2K Bunkers? Which were the same as bomb bunkers, for a different reason?

(I have redneck friends, and yes, they have bomb shelters!)

Leave my mark by achieving everything I have always wanted to do with perseverance and strength!

And when I die my grave won't say 'R.I.P', it will say 'B.R.B' :)
