Comments for Internet Oddities and Eccentricity at Bunch of Nerds http://bunchofnerds.com A blog for nerds from nerds Mon, 22 Mar 2010 02:25:22 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 Comment on Travel Across An Ice-Free Arctic Sea By 2020 by Joe http://bunchofnerds.com/2009/10/travel/travel-across-an-ice-free-arctic-sea-by-2020/comment-page-1/#comment-29875 Joe Sun, 21 Mar 2010 17:12:01 +0000 http://bunchofnerds.com/?p=1656#comment-29875 We (humans) used to think the world was flat and were certain of that "fact". We also thought the atom was the smallest particle, that we were at the center of the universe; we still can't decide if the universe is expanding or contracting (consensus). Why would we whole-heartedly believe that the world is going to end, results are disastrous or whatever else you're puking out of your blog just because some guy went to go look at the ice? Yeah, so it's melting...so what? We put particles in the atmosphere during the industrial revolution which blocked out the sun and created a cooling trend. At the same time were damaging the ozone layer. Then we found out what we were doing was wrong so we scaled back polluting but didn't "fix" the ozone so now more heat can enter the earths atmosphere. Now it's getting warmer and melting all the ice. Either we, or the earth, will balance things out again but there's nothing you or I individually can do about it. YES we can recycle blah blah blah. Without everyone doing it an individuals effort is pointless. You need to sell people on the fact then they will follow directions. But you didn't do that, you merely reported on it without connecting the dots, without suggesting the personal impact. I'm already poor and have to fend for myself in the world. How does some melting ice matter at all if I'm already swimming up stream in life? We (humans) used to think the world was flat and were certain of that “fact”. We also thought the atom was the smallest particle, that we were at the center of the universe; we still can’t decide if the universe is expanding or contracting (consensus).

Why would we whole-heartedly believe that the world is going to end, results are disastrous or whatever else you’re puking out of your blog just because some guy went to go look at the ice?

I’m already poor and have to fend for myself in the world. How does some melting ice matter at all if I’m already swimming up stream in life?

Comment on Ahhhhhh! Real Dolls documentary creeps us out! by The KAT http://bunchofnerds.com/2007/07/video/ahhhhhh-real-dolls-documentary-creeps-us-out/comment-page-3/#comment-29867 The KAT Mon, 15 Mar 2010 17:16:15 +0000 http://bunchofnerds.com/2007/07/video/ahhhhhh-real-dolls-documentary-creeps-us-out/#comment-29867 I have read and digressed the comments on this page. SInce I am on dial up I was unable to view the video but have seen the guys on other websites. I can understand why guys feel they MUST have a doll as an alarming number of women are ONLY going out with the Johhny Depp/Brad Pitt lookalikes, and if you dont look like a pop star or film star you quite simply get ignored!!! I know that from personal experience. I have been advertising for a partner for over three years and have met only 2 women out of 5,000 [sic] who do not take looks as important. Persona first women (I am talking to one now) are in fast decline. This is a sick joke if you are average looking and then selfish "looks only" women are the first to bitch and moan when their Mr Handsome hurts them, I just say serves them right!!! Next time Mr Right often is only average looking!!! Of course if a man is average looking he gets ignored and goes into himself, and like myself starts considering a real doll. Is it any wonder why guys turn to dolls these days? I would have had one but even at quarter of the price they are far too expensive adding to the misery of loneliness. Ideally a REAL woman would take a guy WHATEVER he looks like, but unfortunately such women are increasingly rare. I say good to the guys, it makes me envious of them, but hopefully I will never own one if I get married. I have read and digressed the comments on this page.
