I've been a lurker on videosift for at least 4 months. I only recently joined because I found this video on youtube and couldn't find it on videosift. In my state of shock I came up with a great idea to create an account and post it on the very website that I shared many joyous moments with.

After checking up on the video and seeing it got no hits yesterday, I lost all hope. I would just like to say thanks, alien_concept. I will definitely be staying around now

The Turkey Dictator

MilkmanDan says...

This dude is apparently fluent in Turkish! .../ducks and ignores the groans

I remember kicking a soccer ball (football) around at my house when we had turkeys. They'd respond with gobbles like that after every kick simply due to the sound it made. Normal behavior for their species as @chingalera said, although it seemed like groups of turkeys would respond like this with gusto whereas I never really noticed similar behavior from chickens or ducks.

I would possibly also disagree with the "never gets old" remark...

The Turkey Dictator

chingalera says...

This never gets old...

Turkeys and chickens and most avian species are call and response-It's communication-The louder the better with turkeys-They'll always defer to the louder gobble and respond immediately in mimicry. Don't know why this is, but it makes em fun to raise and hard to wanna eat.

Perhaps if your beloved so called "job creators" paid people a living wage rather than horde more and more of their profits for themselves there wouldn't be a war on poverty.


>>> You are your own boss, whether you work for someone else or not. You create the value and sell your time and labor to others, and can increase the value of both in many ways: providing solutions for others, inventing new products or boosting your own knowledge base. Yep, there are socialist countries that will pay you a living wage to push a broom, and those economies can't hope to compete with non-socialist economies.


I will go out on a limb and assume that you would shop exclusively at a Wal-mart-type store that paid their employees a living wage as opposed to the real Wal-mart? There aren't enough such "conscious consumers" to sustain such a business.


The problem with your narrative is you believe that the wealthy all won some type of lottery, that they did not provide any service or create an invention that yielded deserved financial rewards. This is a common sickness surrounding socialism: the game is rigged and those at the top are there by pure chance. This is what Obama was raised to believe.


The rich pay the lion's share of taxes in America, while the bottom half pay NOTHING in income tax yet get plenty of benefits. This model is nothing new, the ancient Athenians taxed the wealthy at a much higher rate than the poor. The difference is they didn't endlessly spend and create money out of thin air. I'm not against the social safety net, but what we have now is unsustainable and beyond ridiculous.


I agree that many of these CEOs are overcompensated turds, but they are a small part of the problem. In order for them to be paid, stockholders have to be happy, and for stockholders to be happy, a business has to be successful. Only in the fantasy world of government is anything too big to fail.


You're somewhat awakened in that you see that the ole government's robbing peter to pay paul routine doesn't work. Wonder where the trillions went? First and foremost, to con artists and bureaucrats, who gobble up so much of every dollar seized by government very little reaches the intended recipients, and that will NEVER change. "The state is that great fiction by which everyone tries to live at the expense of everyone else."


If you want to attack "greed", start with these Obama worshipers who nonetheless sheltered their own wealth when it came time to pay up.

Perhaps if your beloved so called "job creators" paid people a living wage rather than horde more and more of their profits for themselves there wouldn't be a war on poverty. They can't even pay their employees a rate that keeps up with inflation. Worker compensation goes up 5.7% since 1978, while CEO pay 726.7%. You right wing folks cry foul if the government taxes the rich about "spreading the wealth" but don't care that the rich are stealing the money earned by the hard work of the working class and keeping it at the top. Want to stop spending so much of your tax dollars helping the poor? How about your heroes paying everyone a living wage? How about they start hiring people again rather than fire people so they can have a jet? When the job creators start doing that then we can complain about how much tax money goes to helping the siftless who refuse to work and "want a handout". When some rich guy, <cough>Romney</cough> making $20 Million a year off investments actually spends $15 to $19 Million of that making businesses that just run off those investments rather than just holding it for their own greed, then we talk about a war on poverty... if I made that kind of money I wouldn't need even $1 Million a year, I'd stop around $150k (+/- cost of living adjustments from this area to whatever area I was in) and the rest I'd put into making stores or something, paying people living wages... $20 million a year would pay a lot of people a living wage.

And to be clear, I believe in the right to start your own business, and to be compensated for the risk, but when over half of your workers need food stamps, and you are making $18.7 Million a year, most of that in very low tax capital gains, then I start having issues. Nobody needs that kind of money, nobody. I'm not saying that everyone should cut off at the $150k (+/- cost of living for a given area) that I'd stop at, but after $250-$500 or so it starts to get bad if they aren't paying everyone under them a living wage (and if they are all being paid a living wage, then start hiring more people rather than keeping minimum staffing).

But no, they hold it for themselves, they fire thousands of people and keep the rest an minimum wages for over 3 years so they can have and keep their jet, their incomes greatly increase year to year compared to the rate of inflation while the few people they keep aren't keeping pace, and you people on the right complain about the poor rather than looking at the people responsible. You complain about how the poor are all just lazy... stop your job, work with the poor, take a job in retail working minimum wage for 10 to 20 years of your life. Most of those people want better jobs, they don't want a hand out, they want something better for themselves and their kids. Most of the poor want out, not by a handout, they want good jobs, but the "job creators" care only about increasing their pockets rather than helping their employees. Every person I know who gets government assistance (and that is a very large percentage of the people I know) would love to make a living wage and be off government assistance, a great many of them are embarrassed to be on the government roles and take it only because the only other choice would be take their kids and live on the streets, while the business owner or CEO hired by the company they work for jets around from mansion to mansion.

Best/Worst Entertainment of 2012 Thread (Cinema Talk Post)

bareboards2 says...

I only have a TV for one reason.... So You Think You Can Dance. Eliana Girard won this year -- probably the best dancer they have ever had.

I can't put my finger on anything else -- my passions are big passions, and push all else from my head. I know I have gobbled up some books, and laughed and cried at the movies... but I can't remember any titles at present.

Except the documentaries Trash Dance and Chasing Ice. Yep.

Sticker shock: Why are glasses so expensive?

renatojj says...

Being a monopoly or a near monopoly is not something that automatically makes a company detrimental to society.

What matters is if that monopoly was established with some kind of violence, or by pulling strings in Washington for political favors.

I don't see Luxottica doing any of that.

America is destroying its own business environment, I'm not surprised when american companies are gobbled up by foreign multinationals.

@RedSky if anti-competitive behaviour automatically equals market failure, are you saying worker unions are bad for the market? Because I wouldn't, I think unions are quite useful.

TV Anchor Responds To Viewer's Attack On Her Weight -- TYT

charliem says...

Guy writes constructive letter to a woman to try and get her fat ass on the treadmill, in a way that doesnt make her feel like shit by outright calling her a fatass.....and she jumps on him (crushing him perhaps...), and proceeds to justify why her ass is still fat.

He said hes seen her not change weight in 3 years (?)...cmon...youve all the time in the world to address something like that, I didnt feel the letter was mean spirited at ALL. If someone wrote me a letter like that it would inspire me to join a gym and watch what I shovel in my mouth, not justify my sedentary food gobbling lifestyle.

I wonder if she went home and ate a bucket of ice cream that night.....

Please dont mistake my bluntness for a lack of empathy, ive got fatass close family members that I care dearly about...that I too have tried so much to try to get them to change their lifestyle.

Doesnt happen. Too set in on drinking a 40 of coke a day, and doritos, deep fried foods, ZERO excercise etc.

Its just so fucking frustrating to see the ones you love and care about, shitting away a decade+ of healthy extended life because they are too lazy to do anything about it.

"You dont know me!"

No....youre right....but I know plenty of people very very well who have your exact body type. And I can see patterns lady.
