Not really what I meant...but you get top marks for enthusiasm! Now get ready to run into your anthill - I'm about to whip this sopping wet paper roll at you and it's gonna hurt...


Oh reallllyyyyy???? Is THAT why you're hiding out on YOUR profile instead of daring to come over to mine to say that????

So the land development, building and fueling/mining of a nuclear power plant is free of emissions? What about waste disposal and decommissioning? Bremnet speaks the truth, albeit in a markedly sarcastic way. Car emissions come from energy production. Electric cars simply have their energy production out-sourced. Things become interesting at a local level with electric transport because you can potentially choose how your energy is produced. But you'd better believe that coal and oil is still powering all things electric in the majority of households, including recharging batteries.
I am a huge proponent of nuclear power, though I really wish LFTR's would come into production especially considering it's organic safety features and relative fuel abundance.
Since we're on the subject of electric cars, don't forget that the production of batteries and electric motors is very expensive. I'm not necessarily talking about monetary costs, but rather cost in resources and energy. Again, I support the development and usage of electric vehicles but dare not ignore their true cost.
>It seems the only answer that comes up is carbon credits and absolute emission limits.
You have so much more power to control your resource usage than the government. Don't rely on them for a solution. You can choose what you eat (agriculture is a huge resource spender), how you travel (walk or take public transport), what and why you buy (industry is another big spender), and your home resource usage. Don't pass the buck and blindly empower the government when it's our responsibility.
Now if only the planet was run on pancake power. Then, surely, I would be the true master of Earth.

BTW, great video and awesome car. Would love to give it a go (as with all Audi Rx cars

Well, nuclear is there to make electricity and vehicles emission free. If the greens hadn't worked so hard to ensure that nuclear power was stopped the 41% for electricity and whatever chunk of transportation is vehicles would all be gone.
But fine, is you wanna be sarcastic how about you chime in with a better solution. You hear plenty of chicken little's running around crying it's time to panic. You hear plenty of talk about reducing our emissions. You don't hear nearly so much about how to do that. It seems the only answer that comes up is carbon credits and absolute emission limits. Without nuclear power for electricity production and switching large parts of transportation over to electricity, what is left? Are we just to stop using transportation and electricity all together I suppose?
>> ^bremnet:
Yes, so true. Just look at all of the countries signing up for new nuclear power plants. Oh, and of course, those who generate their electricity today with that peskily cheaper natural gas from shale gas will likely just shut that down. Forgot to ask, how do we generate the electricity to charge our batteries? If you say anything that involves rubbing balloons in ones hair, well that's just too clever! Let's see - in 2009, 41% of global CO2 emissions were from the generation of electricity and heat, and only 23% for transport per the IEA report (that's all transport - cars, trucks, buses, seagoing vessels, trains, planes) so let's call your 30% a rounding error. By 2015, it is estimated that the total CO2 emissions from seagoing vessels will surpass that for all land based automobiles, so can we get a video of an electric cargo ship instead of this car? Pretty sure they have those, right? If we have electric vehicles, and have to generate more electricity ummm... (head explodes). Top marks for enthusiasm, but I'm afraid we're going to have to keep you back for another year to re-teach math and energy balance.




But just how much can you realistically reduce your emissions by through changed behaviour? I doubt even 50% is realistic. Now, how about getting our entire society to do the same, are people gonna voluntarily give up everything they need to drop 50%? Not a chance.

If electric cars can be improved enough to be desirable over gas, then a switch over to nuclear for electricity production can drop emissions nearly 50%. More importantly, it happens by consumers buying something new because they simply want to, and government/corporations making money off selling nuclear energy to run everyone's new cars.

Short of putting guns to peoples heads and telling them what they can and can not eat, how far they are allowed to travel in a year, and enforcing that across the globe, emissions ARE NOT going to be lowered. Electric cars and nuclear power are the only viable options out there and they are either ready now(nuclear) or will be very, very soon(electric cars).

Wow, you guys are fricken awesome. Top marks Dag and Lucky! That is some ultra speedy action there.



Thanks a load. If I find the time (which is unfortunately unlikely at this current juncture as work just decided to get crazy busy I will definitely do some editing on there.

You guys rock a place not unlike the Casbah

Oh JAPR, you're the fucking worst, don't pretend you "forgot".

Jus esate visi blet debilai nachuj, ir man visishkai pochuj. Ciulpk bibi blet.

Anyway, here goes nothing.

Big thanks to jonny for hosting the roasting so well, having, as he does, a sense of humour and theatre. (gay)

Much love to dotdude for the prep work, you care so much about this shit, you make me want to cry.

Shouts out to choggie of course, I don't know why the fuck we bother with these morons. Seriously. Why. I mean, stop the roast a minute. Let's actually think about it. Why. The. Fuck.

Ok resume the roast.

K0MMIE, do vegetables have eyes and a heart? You're the retard. Anyway thanks for playing.

blankfist, i just knocked over the wiskey bottle when i lunged to hug you. All over the carpet. But we don't care. nnnnnobody underssscchhtandz uzzzzz

Fjnbk, top marks for like, googling Lithuania and reading the first 3 lines. I know how hard that was for you... Like the time you tried to register on videosift as "Fred" but you just couldn't spell it. Anyway, know this: best girls and beer in the world. Less men than girls. And the men are ugly. Sleep well, so many miles away.

my15minutes, oh you're another of those who exploded onto the scene and got a frickin gold star in 2 weeks and it's supposed to mean something. Your ironic name is the only thing that saves me from completely despising you. But your hard drive was probably seized for child porn... so i'm back to despising you again.

karaidl, i was beginning to worry about your tardiness, quite honestly the only point of getting roasted is to be immortalised in a classic karaidl composition. But then, to my disappointment, I had to read scraps of wikipedia you knocked together in five minutes. 4 upvotes, wow, not your best work i guess. Still i gotta give respect for the majority of your output in this godforsaken talentless wasteland.

smibbo, thou dost pretend ignorance too much. nobody has an avatar that good without also having the wit to appreciate a bit of a MINKing. If you must know, it was PETA's propaganda that made me consider vegetarianism, but guess what, I read more and realised they are a bunch of cunts. But so are people that pay supermarkets to imprison animals. Your history awakening is interesting. Do read more, it's a great story. But steer clear of the neo-nazi shit that claims absolutely every significant event in history was down to Baltic blood sweat and tears. The wikipedia article was written by Lithuanians, you can tell by the grammar mistakes and need to convince everyone that the alliance with Poland did not include relinquishing sovereignty.

darkrowan, you escape my wrath, because the bit about American Idol was so close to the bone, i nearly wet myself. Get out of jail free.

ditto Zifnab, another sifter who isn't a total fucktard. I salute your 20 seconds of google image sweat.

rottenseed, another Sifter whose avatar is the only thing worth looking at. Oh, I see you donated to the Sift, you have the golden cup of Sifturbation by your username. Well, you know what they say, a fool and his money, fool me apart, your money isn't going to get fooled again.

gorgonheap, i see you went for the hilarious "lithuania is imaginary" strategy. But at least you characterised me accurately... oh except for the fact that I have a beautiful baltic girlfriend who tidies all the shit up for me. sux 2 b u.

kronosposeidon, a true gentleman, and vote whore. he knows what i mean. dontcha. yeeeeees.

arsenault185: awwww, you used a "tongue out" smiley, i guess that will make it easier for you to suck my freaking dick

berticus, you too shall be praised, not insulted, because your post, with its tremendously profound use of white space, and bleak postpostmodern outlook, plucked the strings of my heart and the loins of my laughbox.

MycroftHomlz... oh just get over there under the big sign that says "I WENT ON VIDEOSIFT AND THE ONLY WORTHWHILE THING I DID WAS UPLOAD THIS STOLEN AVATAR THAT'S A BIT FUNNY"

Marine: I salute you, because you're harder than I am. And you're not a total Siftard.

Notable by their absence were:

Lucky: the Siftard for whom I have most respect, not only for his technical skills and dedication, but for being the only person who hates me AND just ignores me without being a fucking twat about it. Saluteyousah.

Dag: You know better than to say what you think here, what with your reputation for wisdom and evenhandedness and all that. Well, keep sailing the ship straight down the middle, as an optimist you will always be happy, regardless of... well.. .anything at all.

That girl(s) that thinks we should all just get along, and who enjoys attacking me spitefully while complaining about my spiteful attacks: Awwww. You're cute.

kulpims: My east european fellow procrastinator. i know what you were doing when you should have been posting.

Farhad: my idol. The fact that he doesn't really show himself much around here any more is proof of my every theory about Siftegredation.

So there. If i missed anyone, it's because you're not fucking important enough

I feel the need to finish by saying that where there is safety, there is danger. Where there is peace, there will be war. Where everyone agrees, brains turn to cheese. He who reads someone's posts properly understands more than he who looks for his own opinions in other people's posts so he can upvote in a splurdge of masturbatory mouse operation and self congratulation.

I can't stand it that everyone thinks we should be nice and agree. I try to be civil. I just don't flower up my words with all sorts of passive aggressive pseudopsychological bullshit. That's why i like Lithuanians. They just say what they think. Normally negative. It's the only way to get to the truth.

So, I promised to uncloak myself a little, if I enjoyed the roast.

Well I kinda did enjoy parts of it, I guess. So I will send an mp3 link in a private message to all roasters here who actually have a brain large enough to comprehend its contents. It is from my NATO parody music project. I don't really want to link my real life to my Siftlife out here in the googlesphere too much, because me and MINK are not the same thing.

Try to understand, this is not the real me on screen, it's MINK. I don't actually care if you like it or not. Does that insult you? I share some beliefs with MINK, but i would NEVER be as much of an asshole as MINK in real life. Try to wrap your head around this. It's theatre. (gay). I am on the internet, not under oath in court. I know only about 4% of the SIft actually think this way. But it's true, some people have an imagination and they use it.

I am kinda sorry that my own entertainment annoys other people. But it also entertains people I really care about, so....

LOL. Fucking retards. Go look up "nom de plume" in a dictionary. No no no... a french dictionary, retards.

So, in summary, I am sorry if I actually was insulting to someone personally at any time in Siftistory, I really do try to stick to only insulting your lame ideas about the way the world works. I don't want to be meaner than you deserve.

In the words of the Great Chog, and Jesus of Nazareth:
"Look in the fucking mirror you fucking fucktards!"

top marks.. clever dog...weren't you all just willing him over towards the end?

The real problem is culture. As an Asian in America I can totally feel this. In Asia the top of society are excellent in academics. The people that other students look up to are the ones who excel at school and score top marks. In America it's the opposite. If you're smart you're a dweeb or a nerd or a dork, attention and rewards are given for being stupid, but able to catch a ball.

Schools are not making American kids dumb. American culture and its obsession with stupidity is making American kids dumb. That much should be obvious.
