oh I do this with my phone - stick the speaker side in your mouth and vocalise away.

I totally agree that you should vocalise your disapproval.

That said, a little physical reinforcement is entirely warranted IMHO. I'm not talking about crippling the guy or permanently injuring his genitals, but you can better believe that if someone did that to me a knee to the balls would be the least of their worries.

Besides, it might make him think twice about doing it to other people.

All that said, it was your situation to deal with and what you do is up to you. I just probably wouldn't have been so philosophical about it.

I too believe Neil puts too much emphasis on the 1% figure. It's true that this 1% has given us a reverse pelvis allowing us to walk on two legs, freeing our hands, and given us a relocated voice-box to allow us to vocalise language. But these are just biological tools, it's how we use them that is important. We are not born with a language built in or the ability to use our hands in a skilled way, these things must be taught and learned, which is what pushes us beyond this '1%'.


Actually, there has been an interview done with Chomsky in Discover magazine that would suggest that certain phonetic patterns similar to language are, in fact, inborn. There is evidence that there may be an instinct in humans to communicate through language with certain forms and rules common across all races and places. I thought that was a very interesting interview.

Poor form. At 10s you can see some poor person in the background outside, running for their life; the only reasonable conclusion to draw is that they are about to join one of the many tens of thousands killed.

Too soon to mock people for the way they vocalise their terror?

Fuckin-a it is.

{edit] Many people running for their lives outside.

i realise pretty much all people love these things but fucking hell, i'm sick of seeing these zero punctuation reviews. i realise i don't have to watch them but they're annoying me so much that i just had to vocalise my distaste. just seeing the video's title riles me. maybe it's something deep-rooted.

thanks.

you're such an angry little guy.. let the cool breeze blow through your hair, and repeat after me.. wooooooooooofrabbaaaaaaaa

and stop making such a big deal out of nothing

ignore list me and be free, i shouldn't have to tell you this

brilliant. as suspected, you're clearly an idiot. thanks for deleting my comments from your profile page too, it just clarifies the fact that you have no logical argument to put forward and realise that you'd be better off if the whole thing were buried.

i look forward to your next outburst.

pretty much the response i expected. nice to see the nazi defense thrown in too, even though it's completely irrelevant. i couldn't give 2 hoots about your opinion, you can dislike whatever you want, but i give a shit when people like you start being abusive towards others, either whilst hiding behind an internet connection or otherwise. so you disagree with someone. doesn't mean you need to vocalise the fact in what seems (according to the vast majority of people - 100% with regards to your latest outburst) to be an aggresive way.

and how is posting a response on your profile page 'stooping'? surely it's better than airing the problem in the middle of a video's comment thread? and who did i advise to read it? you do realise your profile is open to read by anyone?

In reply to this comment by dannym3141:
Hahahahaha! No problem boss hog. You've approached me all wrong. You're not interested in an answer or a reason, you just want to flame. I believe that makes us equal, in your eyes.

Are my opinions not allowed? I think that's how nazi germany started.

And you underestimate me sir, i do speak like that. I think you're being far too carebearesque in your judgement. Neither of those comments are particularly harsh nor insulting. One's steeped in sardony and the other is marinaded in hurt outrage for a quality comedy. However even i did not stoop to posting insults on a person's profile for their opinions. Nor advise someone else to read it and upvote it. But i'm ok with being the adult

So, judging by the up and down votes those comments have gotten (a degree of both), i shall ever remain willing to speak my mind when there is an outlet to do so!

I love you, you and people alike make this community diverse and give raise to many discussions that have expanded my mind for years.

In reply to this comment by deputydog:
what's your problem sweetcheeks? you can't get away with speaking like that in the real world so you release all that pent up anger on a fucking video aggregation website?

i'd suggest 4chan but i'm assuming you're already a regular.

...sorry issy, those fella's that lives where my vagina should be said I'm not allowed to vote for this.


They that insecure?

chance of being sifted = random number - how many starred users you've pissed off this week, plus lamda, where lamda equals (the number of times a cat vocalises in your clip / 10)

there ya go, simplified that for ya.

makes me feel sick, because women really are being coerced into altering their bodies from an early age. we think we're more advanced than feet-binding Chinese of the previous century. people complain that feminists have won equal rights, so have nothing more to vocalise about. this video is trying to be clever but doesn't really say enough about how we got to be in such a sick state of self-mutilation.
