    Got the book for my birthday.Its a pretty funny book and sadly, I've seen a lot of the topics mentioned in forum discussions around here. Its definetly a fun read at least and I'm surprised what parts of the series it talks about (Spirits Within anyone? ).

    Perhaps. After all, if she succeeded, there would be only one person left. She probably wouldn't have a job, but still, having only one person unemployed would be a huge milestone, even if it was 100% of the population.
    Actually, if she were to make herself self employed, she could give herself any job title she wanted, thus completely eradicating any form of unemployment.
    Doesn't employment necessitate some form of renumeration? She couldn't pay herself, as she already owns anything she has, and there are no clients to provide outside wealth. Depends on your definition, I guess.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    According to Dissidia, people will not vanish in Time Compression, they are just frozen in time. So she could offer a service to them if she created some bizarre financial scheme with a unique currency like time or something...

    It sounds like it would be funny. I wonder why I haven't heard of this from any of the other forums I post on.

    Well when she's the only one left, who's going to argue the definition with her?

    She could make up her own currency, too. Blades of grass are the new gil -- she's rich!

    Woah... I had not heard of it!

    I didn't know these series... Interesting... xd... they have a Legend Of Zelda book too :B

    Do game characters fear death?
    I think this depends on how are you playing... I think characters on emulators fear death less than characters on the console itself... cause they know about the useful save state functions of emulators ...

    actualy when i play my characters do fear death, i try to keep my death count at 0... if a character dies i reset and start back at the last save and power lvl untill they can beat whatever killed them with ease...

    She could if she destroyed Galactus — which, if she were the only being left alive, she would have.
