Here is a thought experiment
Supposed you could create a system that was less than amenable to the following groups:
(1) Cancer patients (since the only treatment options going were "CUT, POISON or BURN, IRRADIATE OR NUKE')
(2) Gay people (since being gay was forbidden)
(3) Cats or dogs that were animal shelter inmates (since the shelters were "kill" shelters and it was "survival and increased chance of getting adopted of the youngest and cutest." )
(4) Religious minorities in countries like Iran (since they're religiously oppressed)
(5) Women in countries like Saudi Arabia (since they're gender oppressed)
(6) People in wretchedly poor or politically oppressive countries (since they endure wretched poverty and / or political oppression)
You then found yourself coming back as a member of one of those groups and would you in that case "retool" the system to make it more amenable?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

If I came back as anything, I'd scream and blow the planet up. Getting stuck with you shits again would just be too much for me.

You would first need to build a bomb big enough, good luck with that.Dalek Prime wrote:If I came back as anything, I'd scream and blow the planet up. Getting stuck with you shits again would just be too much for me.
I assume you're not a Vogon.
