Ethics can mean something different to and one person. Ethics is not a set of rules that have to be followed in any way.
People make their own ethics by what they believe in. When arguing about ethics it is hard to change a persons view on
them. That is why in the lecture it seemed like Jason was pushing the statement agree to disagree. In discussing ethics this
must be part of the conversation. Everybody on the planet has their own thoughts on ethics and it is hard to find two people
that have the same ethical views on life. An example of this and what we read was the reading on Ted Bundy. This goes to
show that he thought it was ethical to kill those people and he was able to back it up in his mind but to the majority of the
world his ethical views were looked at like he was insane. To him it seemed like it was the right thing to do to kill all the
people he did. Probably if we take many of the big serial killers that have been caught over the years they will probably tell
us that what they did was ethically right to them if they aren’t actually insane and just went crazy. Even looking at the big
philosophers it seems to me that they have different views on this subject and that is where many big ideas have came
from. Jason’s lecture put into perspective for me that ethics is a hard subject to talk about to other people and that if you do
you have to be able to agree to disagree or the conversation isn’t going to go anywhere

True, true; ethics can be a very muddy thing.
Is it right to want to be a woman with a ding dong? Or to make a false
website about someone you know claiming to be a pansexual? What about
wanting to put a large, metal wall around Africa?
I promise you that you'll never get straight answers from anyone about
these subjects. Which goes to show that I was right about ethics being
muddy, sheyeah.

WHAT IN THE HELL
THANKS A LOT, NADIR
I was in a public computer lab and I don't think anyone saw it, but that could have been really bad

I opened the .swf file in a new tab. I'm on a slow internet connection, so it took a while to load, and I forgot about it. I'm looking at other stuff and listening to music at the same time (Black Rebel Motorcycle Club), when suddenly this eerie, oddly hypnotic loop starts blasting over my headphones. After a few seconds, I realized that the sound is coming from the Flash file. I switched tabs, but my computer isn't exactly top-of-the-line, and nothing showed up on the screen. After a moment or two of perplexity, the Flash plugin decides to finally repaint my browser window, and <b><i>OH</i> MY

Nadir, did you just find this, or do you keep a stockpile of media files for special occasions?
