Person of the year

I know what happened to that, dude, it’s obvious. The wisdom of crowds, man, the collective spiritual power and raw intuition of the west happened. Clearly, we were on the edge of extinction, but all our peeps/tribe started buying trucks and SUVs for their commutes, along with 2 Starbucks lattes a day in paper cups with plastic lids. CAFE and cafes, to the rescue. By the time the ice age would have wiped out 19/20ths of humanity, we had Hummer H2s and Ford raptors as daily drivers, and all our food (and mobile entertainment/comms/data) came in plastic—the better for our oceans to trap all that desperately needed heat.

Humanity happened, as humanity always does when the chips are down. Humanity, and 707hp Dodge Chargers, and ipads, and man-made elastomer yoga pants, and Amazon delivering a 12-pack of surefire cr123 batteries or a single J.K. Rowling paperback in a 12" x 12" cardboard box packed with inflatable plastic millions of times a year, and Burgundy region escargot and Australian/Japanese wagyu beef overnighted on FedEx planes for dinner.

We saved ourselves, and had a big time doing it, I’d say.

Y’all are welcome.

Well, I’m doing my bit to help, and to increase my carbon footprint..I heat my house with a outside wood burner, and I drive a pickup..

Seen elsewhere, someone said it makes perfect sense - a petulant child railing against things they don't fully understand and can't control. That's President Trump in a nutshell.

FIFY.

Comrade of the Year 2019: Greta Thunberg



Edit to add: Petulant children who presume to lecture adults about things they don't understand deserve to be spanked.

Adults who manipulate and abuse children to further socio-political causes deserve to be spanked... with an axe.

I believe in the sterilization of idiots. Already I have started a list.

I wouldn't spank her, I would ignore her. She wants attention however she can get it.

It is entirely possible this whole racket is her parents’ idea. She wouldn’t be the first teenager used in that way, sadly.

If I did that I'd have nasty notes all over my windshield.

Because we have a lot of trees around here we have a lot of tree huggers.

She's a delight.
