Lets talk about the governator.


that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard.

lets check the stats shall we?

In my lifetime, there have been three major earthquakes in southern california which combined caused billions of dollars of damage.

in that same lifetime, there have been nearly a DOZEN terribly destructive hurricanes in the gulf states, including several which practically destroyed WHOLE cities..

I think that the current tally is

California Earthquakes 3
Gulf State Hurricanes 12

so how bad are earthquakes really?
and also, didn't you know that building codes have become so well adjusted that your homes, buildings and roadways are much much much more likely to survive an earthquake than a hurricane..

you can build against earthquakes, but a fucking storm surge is another matter entirely...

but I take it by your response that you do not live here, or maybe even have never felt an earthquake before? If you had, you would laugh out loud.. we don't even get out of bed for those things unless it is above a 6.0 and those happen less then once a decade...

I think your paranoid tirade is thus unwarranted..

really? you didn't catch his post dissing cats, for fucks sakes? i don't mean the shitty musical, i mean the domestic animal. that was worse than this one.

i was in miami for hurricane andrew, and andrew was a stronger storm than Katrina. the only reason katrina did anything was because it hit a city that was 6 ft BELOW sea level.

florida has building codes as well. the worst thing about hurricanes these days are floods. they cause water damage to houses, and make soil loose enough for trees to fall over.

as for cats, my hatred for cats is simple. Im allergic. I dont care about any animal that can cause that much misery. Although, I dont think any animal deserves to be abused.

But seriously, how horrible could it be to be stuck inside of a bong? Other than the whole part about cats hating water, i bet the cat loved it.

Rob Instigator 03.06.2009 04:53 PM

katrina was categrory 3 storm with a ctegory 5 storm surge. the lowness of nawlins was not much factor. the shittyl;y maintained levees were.

Thinking contemporary America is dumb = wishing it was erased from history?

I think you are taking his exaggeration/piss taking too seriously.

It sounds like:
person 1: I don't really think the Beatles are as talented at songwriting as everyone else thinks
person 2: OMFG wut u tlkin baut with/t the beatles their wud b no musik at all, ur a hipokrit cuz u like muzik

Using black/white logic to blow a little thing into absolute war. Do we really need you to come in on a white stallion to save the fair maiden America from a ribbing?

I know all Americans arn't that stupid and actually no we don't have people calling 911 (or 000 as it is over here) over a fast food restaurant running out of food, and yes I know that they wouldn't give her money back but really how much are 10 chicken nuggets in America. It isn't gonna be enough to call emergency services about. She could've just reported it to local police and see what they could do. Know what I mean.

my next door neighbours called the cops at 10 30 on a friday night because I wouldnt let them go crawling under my house looking for their cat. I told them to wait until the morning.. Apart from the fact that there is no way the cat could have even gone under my house, just no. So he called the cops. wtf?! (this is the eternal bogan house.. family after family.)
