Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

true, but using a car has its own utility.

Would it be immoral to drive a car without utility? Maybe so, but only a little immoral, surely. You don't deserve to go to jail for taking a joyride around the block.

I can think of reasons to write a name in a Death Note, like trying to prove to someone that it doesn't work.

A joyride has its own value. If there were literally no utility -- you're driving a car for no reason, not even to have fun -- then yeah it's immoral, as it just puts people in danger and pollutes the planet.

As for uses for an impotent death note, fair enough, you're right.
