Angry pedestrian gets instant karma

oritteropo says...

No, he stopped at the right place. From the gesturing I think the pedestrian thought he was coming in a bit hot and should slow down. Obviously that's not how the approach looked on the dashcam...

nanrod said:

So what was he angry about in the first place. The car drives up to a red light and stops at the stop line. Is there something about Australian traffic rules I don't understand?

How to Swear in French

Finally, some hope: http://www.politico.eu/pro/belgian-regional-government-set-to-block-eu-canada-trade-deal/

In a sign of increasing frustration on the Canadian side, the normally cheery Prime Minister Justin Trudeau warned Thursday that not signing CETA would issue a “deplorable” message that Europe is heading towards an “unproductive path” post-Brexit.

Deplorable, you say?
The fact that power over trade — one of the EU’s core negotiating competences — has shifted to Europe’s 38 national and regional parliaments is a major embarrassment for Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker. In July, he was pushed by French and German Socialists into designating CETA as a “mixed agreement” requiring ratification in national and regional assemblies.
(...)
The decision was highly controversial, because Juncker and his chief lawyers believed this wasn’t necessary from a legal point of view, but was a gesture of political goodwill.

A gesture of political goodwill. Or as we call it: a Hail-Mary attempt at keeping it alive, because both the French and the German government are facing serious domestic pressure on this issue. If they hadn't acknowledged parliament's vote on this, CETA might have been taken out back and shot in the head already, like it fucking should be.

One Million Orbeez in Girlfriend's Car

What's (shoulder roll) with (sticks elbows out) all (twists forearms) the (swings hands down towards crotch) weird (lifts arms to shoulder height) arm (makes devil horns with fingers while gesturing) movements (dab)?

THE BEST TRUMP AD EVER ☆☆☆☆☆彡

Drachen_Jager says...

Yes, the system sucks.

Yes, Clinton's a terrible candidate and won't make a very good president.

So your alternative is to hand things over to an egomaniac, so self-centered he said he'd go to war over a rude gesture? A guy who literally wants to nuke people who disagree with him just to show how 'strong' America is?

It's like the doctor tells you that cancer has invaded your body and you have two choices, you can take the chemotherapy and radiation (Clinton) which will make you sick and probably won't help much, or, he offers you an alternative, "Oh great," you say, blindly. "I'll take the alternative."

The doctor douses you in gasoline and lights a match. "All hail President Trump."

The Perfectionist Trap

oblio70 says...

Here's an example of a project we'd have 2-weeks to finish:

A Space for 2 people to live out their life-cycle together.
Site: Desert (Southwest US)
Requirements:
- mass-based passive heating/cooling w/ profound southern views
- brise-soleil with morning privacy
- compost privy as hearth of house


about 3 years of projects like this, fast-fast-fast, with our Senior Thesis being a year-long self-initiated/directed exercise. Fluidity and broad gestures were rewarded...but not as we were discover in the "real world".

"The Political News Media Lost Its Mind"

Januari says...

*promote

If American's are so easily wounded and their dignity so easily damaged, then they really didn't have a lot to begin with.

I don't believe most American's need to be protected from 'mean gestures'. Only extremely thin skinned narcissists and their weak minded supporters think this way. Its the childish mindset of the person who believes he can pull out his gun and fire at the individual who flicked him off in traffic. Its beneath a world leader and any legitimate nation. Not Drumph... or his supporters though, which is really sad.

Why We Explore

artician says...

I'm surprised his over-exaggerated gesturing didn't dislodge and fling an accidental "dude" onto the end of one of his sentences.



Also, was this filmed in front of a green screen? It looks like he's a studio.

How to point out bad guys to a policy helicopter

Cops beating African American until white guy steps in

artician says...

I'd actually downvote this too, but Ive never downvoted anything before so I need to read up on it first. That said...
Half the video is the text scrawl of someones personal opinion, and as @Januari already pointed out the thing is a complete mess otherwise. No context, obvious bias, hugely amateur presentation, etc.

I am 100% behind the gesture though.

This Is Why You Don't Go Close to the Ocean During a Storm

poolcleaner says...

It's amusing how cruel people can unwittingly be (on YouTube) making fun of the elderly man being sucked into the sea to die and their misplaced vitriol at the disabled person who is unable to help. It's not so much that an old guy almost died and a crippled person couldn't do anything; it's the the irony in the comments due to people not knowing the truth. Then again, maybe it could also be a skit like the disabled fat guy from Little Britain?

Certainly, it is funny, despite the cruelty in laughing at other people's misery. It could be a gag in an Adam Sandler movie, except the old guy would be Bob Barker and he'd be pulled out to sea and heard cursing as he drifts and blinks out in the sunset. *Plink!*

Everyone would laugh and then Adam Sandler would kiss a blond woman, probably Drew Barrymore, while the sun sets and we do the Looney Tunes fade out, with Porky Pig interrupting with a hand gesture, "A bi-di-a-bi-di-a-bi-di-abi-di-that's all folks!"

Slavoj Zizek: PC is a more dangerous form of totalitarianism

00Scud00 says...

I think I can see where he's coming from with this, and the more open forms of racism there is an honesty that does seem less insidious. Open racism, like a fire in your house is not something you want, but at least you can see the problem right away and begin to address it (get the fuck out of the house!). But that more subtle form of racism is more like radon gas, can't see it, can't smell it, but it's slowly killing your ass (I feel terrible, I think I'll lie down and take a nap).

In America I think we've been living under the delusion that racism is a thing of the past, especially after electing a black President, but then we see how most of the racism has simply gone underground. And so, all that outwardly PC behavior is just for show, you can change how people act on the outside, but they're still the same on the inside and quietly act on those impulses, the rot is still there.

His examples of dirty jokes weren't even really genuine racism, amongst certain groups (guys in particular) razzing, busting your balls and such is usually a sign of acceptance and sometimes it takes on racial or ethnic tones, but with no real malice.

The decision not to show Carmen at the Sydney Opera House sounds like a classic case of PC overreach, how does not showing Carmen actually serve the anti-smoking cause? Let's ask how many kids started smoking because they saw that scene in Carmen? It's an absolutely useless and pointless gesture.

ChaosEngine said:

He hasn't really presented any kind of decent argument here. Ok, the Carmen thing is stupid, but if you actually read the story behind that, it's because the Opera house was sponsored by a health company. Essentially they bowed to commercial pressure. Nothing to do with PC.

Even if WAS a "PC" decision, on what planet is that "a more dangerous form of totalitarianism"?

Someone decided they didn't want to stage an opera because there's smoking in it... oh no! Save us from opera-hitler!

Did the government step in and force them to do this? Nope, they made the decision themselves.

Independence Day 2 Resurgence: Trailer

00Scud00 says...

I can see the aliens pulling up into orbit now.
Alien Captain: Let's just fire the main gun and we call all be home in time for dinner.
Alien Gunnery Sergent: I'm sorry Captain, but I can't fire the main gun, I keep getting this message that says I can only fire the main gun after I pay these people from a place called Russia a million Bitcoins, sir, what's a Bitcoin?
Alien Captain: Throws his face into his hands in a gesture eerily similar to that of a Captain from that earth television show, and groans like a an alien named Kyp, from an Earthling cartoon show.

Seriously, these poor fuckers don't stand a chance.

Archers Comic-Con Message

BoneRemake says...

It is just silver spray paint, they make themselves shiny and chrome for their enter into Valhalla. It is nothing more than a gesture using silver/chrome spray paint. They warboys worship the V8 and use the term shiny as well as chrome repeatedly throughout the movie to signify something positive. I have watched it literally over 15 times so I sort of know what I am talking about, a little.
