As usual Westy knows all, so I'll refrain from commenting.

This is bloody old. And the major hole in this theory is that if one were immortal they would, presumably, eventually learn to act.

Maybe bad timing considering the baby who was attacked and killed by Huskies a couple of days ago in Quebec.

Great show Little Britain, which was unfortunately tarnished beyond repair by the atrocious American version.

Is there a darwin_award_candidate tag?

Missing apostrophe in title is driving me nuts: Unbelievable ... that kid's back on the escalator!!!!

Against my better judgement I will vote this up because I saw it on tv and it was fecking brilliant. My complaint has to do with the fucking asinine requirement of comedy central that one somehow must be in the US to watch these videos online. Fuckers.

Fuck all religions, with Islam and Catholicism at the top of the pile of assholery.

Here's the funny thing about gun nuts, some of them will eventually snap and kill themselves and their colleagues and family, not necessarily in that order. Oh sorry, that's not really very funny, but it is true.

Does this mean that videosift has jumped the shark into the pool with the likes of America's Funniest Home Videos?

Pretty good, except for the fact that you don't have to go to "My Documents" to open your word file.

It certainly fit the definition of a complaint in my book. Anyway, the sad thing about these people you mention is that they are the ones who could most benefit from the kind of observation of Mr David is making; religion is ridiculous, it's pretty obvious once one is unshackled by the indoctrination of one's upbringing.

>> ^Heartspark:
It was not a complaint, it was the general view of lots of people who I talk to when i send them a link to something i saw on this site. Random my ass, at least once a month or sometimes a week you see something anti-religion. It really turns off lots of people off when a site views seem to be pushed in is all i'm saying.
I like the site, turns me onto some neat videos and such. Just making a observation is all.

Fuck Comedy Central's censorship.

Shit, I thought it said "stoned". I guess I'm still living in the 70s.

I remember modelling these types of systems in University using Calculus of Variations. The technique involves considering the energy (kinetic, potential) of the various components. It's really very powerful, and was a ton of fun to model, but this was way back in the early 80s so the details are a bit fuzzy. Anyway, go lookup Calculus of Variations if you want to grok more.
