No, you meant "drivel"

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/drivel
n.
1. Saliva flowing from the mouth.
2. Stupid or senseless talk.

The noun form of the word "dribble" isn't actually saliva:
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/dribble
n.
1. A weak, unsteady stream; a trickle.
2. A small quantity; a bit.
3. Sports The act of dribbling a ball.

Don't worry @rottenseed , I got yo' Bach.
And if you're wondering, sometimes in English we say things we don't mean; but here I mean I literally have rottenseed's Johann Sebastian Bach sex doll. I don't have his back and I'm not some ignorant/smart ass who is pretending to know that I actually mean "back" and not his "Bach." So sometimes we say things we actually mean too.

See, in English we sometimes we say things we don't literally mean. I want you to imagine some slack jaw, shirt stained with drool, covering their screen with their indignant "drivel".

People actually read youtube comments? HAHAHAHA. You post something on a video with 1000+ views and it doesn't matter how insightful or eloquent you are, its already lost in a sea of dribble. At least now if you comment through g+ somebody might actually see it.

Journalism, the New Terrorism

bobknight33 says...

Big corporations are not to be blamed for this. We the people are to blame.
People would rather watch American got talent or other such dribble rather that see what is truly going on. Low information voters should start paying attention or better yet, don't vote.

It's a shame that we are loosing our rights by leaps and bounds and no one really cares.

>implying this is significant
>implying this is only pertaining to THIS particular date

protip: no one cares

at least my post wasn't some dribble you hacked up between youtube videos. I actually watched the video and applied basic knowledge. Hell I don't even watch CSI and I figured this shit out.

please walk into traffic sir

Tony Parker Dishes Out an INCREDIBLE 18 Assists

aaronfr says...

Impressive. Not sure what the rule is on assists vs a pass, but there were at least two of those highlights where the person receiving the ball made two or three moves before shooting.

For example, the last one with Duncan: Parker drives underneath drawing two defenders out of position. He then passes it to Duncan at the top of the key. The center steps up to defend Duncan, one of the guards stops under the basket to defend the player there and the forward stays with Parker who has run out of bounds. The defense is pretty much reset at that point. Duncan fakes a shot which pulls the center into the air, dribbles twice as a guard and forward move towards him and then floats it up and makes the basket.

Sure, Parker's move and pass was initially disruptive, but the defense was re-set. If someone else does 80-90% of the work to make the basket, did you really help that much?

Downvotes For Adverts (Eia Talk Post)

chingalera says...

Ads are for squares, sorry if a drunken rant on the doldrums of life in the big city wrinkle yer crinkle, I do other things here as well as foment banal dribble for your perusal. I am at this moment considering your frustration with a human response.

I honestly think you are a mental case as well, though find no time in my current schedule to address the needs of humanity at large. Maybe we could start a blog, together?

speechless said:

This is what you're contribution to sift talk is here:
"shit Fuck fucking Fuckazoids cunts fuck-off dick fuck off fuck"

Are you sure your mommy and daddy have allowed you to use the computer? Maybe it's past your bedtime.

And what are you even freaking out about? Ads? You understand ads pay for the site? Is there a particular ad you have a problem with? Are you so smart that you can complain about it but not figure out how to block it?

None of this matters, does it honey? Baby just needs attention. Here you go sweetie --- *hugs*.

Very Rare Triple Play

Chaucer says...

I'm trying to think of an analogy for this in another sport like football. Basically, the likelihood of this happening would look like this.

Messi blocks a goal in his own penalty box. He takes the ball and dribbles the entire length of the dodging all the defenders until he gets to the last defender. The defender slides, hits the ball and knocks it up in the air. Messi then heads the ball past the goalkeeper and the ball then ricochets off all 3 posts on the goal and goes in.

The Five Giveaway (Updated) (Sift Talk Post)

I'm so excited to drink my sometimes thrice daily cup of coffee out of that divine mug! I'll be sure to dribble coffee all over my fancy VideoSift shirt which I won in another contest. SWAG!

You Had One Simple Job

Payback says...

Personally I would prefer a water fountain like in the slideshow above. Most of them barely dribble out of the faucet.

Also, I'm pretty sure that's how they're supposed to work. The drain is for water dripping off your mouth.

New Zealand Same Sex Marriage Bill passes first reading

Jinx says...

>> ^kymbos:

Yeah! This is happening in New Zealand?!? Then it doesn't belong on the internet, because 'people have nothing to do with it'. Thanks, Jinx.

tbh, it doesn't really matter where it is. I appreciate the news, it just grinds my gears when there is a request for dribble in the comments. I know its just a youtube vid, but doesn't it ire you when they start reading out twitters comments on TV? No, I don't give a fuck what the vox pop think, least of all when its a civil rights issue.

Well they're depressive individuals.
Really, what was the point of that? I got bored with it I'm afraid as it was harping on its same point 'people in power are bad' over and over... quite tedious.
And yup, when you browse their gallery of shots from the movie with their wanky descriptions of them, it only further enforces what a load of largely pointless dribble this is.
Quite pretty, nicely animated, to be sure, but what is the POINT?

i think the point a lot of art is to open the door to your interpretation.

Hmm, not really here. They're pretty fricken blatent with their symbolism. Problem is, they just keep on with the symbolism for 7 minutes after they've made the point. And there's no story to interest over the top of it, it's just a bunch of symbolism, and that's it... doesn't make for interesting viewing. Show the 'evil' government and 'evil' society and 'evil' religion and then show how to rise against it, or rise above it, or protect yourself from it... OR SOMETHING.
But all this does is go
"Hey, the government is crap"
"So's religion"
"Society as a whole sucks arse and is over sexualised"
...
...
"Nope, that's it, I've got nothing else, just thought I'd say that"
That's such shallow rubbish. You could either show some way to combat the crap, OR, maybe show the deeper root cause of these things, show the simple core problem that feeds those things, and so maybe offer a way to combat them that way.
All this does is say 'We're really depressed about shit'
Art that leaves it up to your interpretation can actually be taken a number of ways... this not so much.
