That is the only proper reply to someone doing 'the worm'.
..and now, it's been done, and so can never be done again.

Micro Robots Are Coming!

Aren't these just components of a much larger machine?
It's like calling each of your fingers a tiny finger-sized robot.

Colonel Sanders Explains Our Dire Overpopulation Problem

..also, who cares if humans survive to spread across the galaxy, if we are the assholes who burnt down our own home while our family was still inside?

Colonel Sanders Explains Our Dire Overpopulation Problem

grinter says...

First, calling David Suzuki "Colonel Sanders" is embarrassing to the entire human race.

Also, to the suggestion in the comments above that 'technology will save us', ..one of the major points of the video is that it buys us 'two minutes'. It has, and it won't keep buying us comparable time. Actually, part of 'science saving us' is this video itself. Population models, and everything we know about life on this planet tell us that we need to radically change how we do things, or widespread famine, war, and environmental and social destruction are inevitable. If you want science to save us, you need to start listening to it.

..and about colonizing other planets. There is no planet we could ever get to, EVER, that would, in its current condition, support a human colony. We can't seem to turn around a one degree change in Earth's global temperature. It is not rational to assume that we could make another planet suitable for human life.

Why do some cats not eat unless they are being pet? It leads to ridiculous scenes like this, where the cat has food, but is still desperate for its owner to feed it
..oh.. right, "sloppy artificial selection."

Singapore Tourism Board - See where the world is heading

grinter says...

"Surprise! I'm pregnant!"
"Oh... well, I'm sure that the white AND red wines you drank with lunch won't deform the baby..

..also, did you just hand me something you peed on? I'm glad we didn't open the box at lunch."

Guess they got down on National Night?
