Seriously, everything about this can fuck right off.

I also wanna know what the financial motivation is here. How long before this gets uses to charge a fee for every unique player that uses a game? Or will this just help with targeting ads at specific kids?

Huh, I hadn’t considered that some of the stories would have pharmacological explanations like that. Some of the stories would make more sense if the person were blasted on opium or something like that.

Congrats on getting out, I hope it wasn’t too awful to extract yourself. Also, lol @ the ephedra thing, I haven’t heard that before so it made me chuckle and gave me a new perspective on how some of those unbelievable stories can be explained.

No such thing as too far.

It’s certainly possible but in my Catholic upbringing, virtually every martyr has some badass story that implied they were above pain and suffering of their execution (due to their absolute faith, of course). Some stories might be true but my money is on most being heavily embellished. This one in particular seems implausible because I would imagine that being grilled would send your body into shock pretty quickly. Plus the heat would likely damage your lungs when you breathed so I doubt someone could talk for very much of the process.

I’m certainly not saying it’s impossible but I think it’s more likely false (or embellished beyond recognition) than true.

Yeah, this looks like artwork of saint Lawrence, who was basically grilled to death. I remember being told that partway through the execution, he reported told the executioners, “You should probably flip me over, I think I’m done on this side.” I strongly doubt this actually happened since the mythology around martyrs is typically heavily embellished to make them look like badasses.
