Questions That Don’t Get Asked Enough?

Today is Earth Day!

All the bad guys in the world are most certainly taking the day off from their various activities to celebrate. There will be no robberies or IED planting for the 24 hours or so while the celebrations go on.

How will YOU celebrate the day?

 

Me… I’m contemplating a world where where every plane, train, boat, automobile, and semi-truck are powered by electricity.  Every animal will stop trying to eat each other and just hug.

I DO love the smell of Unicorn Farts in the mornings…

Thanks for the reminder, Zero. Is it 8p.m. when I’m supposed to turn on every interior and exterior light and start all of my vehicles?

Instinct

UpNorth, I am doing the same thing.

I was also going to crank the stereo to 11 and play some death metal.

I plan to begin stripping the finish off my newly purchased Mosin Nagant rifle, using commercial stripper with just oodles of VOCs. Also, running the washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, and every television in the house, simultaneously.
If there’s any daylight left, maybe I can burn some tires in the backyard, too.

EARTH FIRST!

(We’ll strip-mine the other planets later.)

Weird. When’s Air Day? And Fire Day?

robertM

This what we all should be doing.

I am considering spraying some areas of my lawn with some roundup. Also I may do a little driving to find the new location of a harbor freight store they are locating in my area…

jack

I’m gonna fire up the grill with real charcoal, not that unicorn fart propane stuff. I’m gonna throw a couple of inch and a half thick ribeyes up there. Drink a couple icecold buds, while my kids play in the back, running the hose long enough to outrage a Californian. When we say grace before we eat, I’ll thank God for every day, including the ones where liberals pray to trees.

I just mowed the front yard. Poor grass.

Frank

I’ve got a gallon of Roundup to spray and this is a good day for it.

I’ve been idling my pickup and boat all day. First I changed the oil and poured the old back in the ground where it came from.

NHSparky

I figured I’d run the AC upstairs, the heater downstairs, and let them fight it out.

For dinner, I’m going to BBQ some spotted owl on a fire of used tires, then change the oil in the car that just got done last week and pour it down the culvert.

I don’t know if it matters or not, but it’s also National Jelly Bean Day.

DaveO

Jelly beans!

And there’s a forecast of snow. That should send the Global Warmists into shitfits explaining that to their kids.

UpNorth

DaveO, that’s easy. It’s global warming. Everyone knows that it causes snow, drought, rain, warming, cooling, and fat people.

SJ

I forgot to add that I chopped down a tree with a white stripe painted on it and grilled a Red-Cockaded Woodpecker….tasted just like chicken. Then, a desert tortoise for desert. Yum yum.

Nichevo

Sprayed a whole can of aqua net into thee sky then burned three sleeves of extra large styrofoam cups.

Must watch for Earth Day: George Carlin “We’re so self-important. So self-important! Everybody’s going to save something now. ’Save the trees; save the bees; save the whales; save those snails.’ And the greatest arrogance of all, “Save the planet.” WHAT? Are these fucking people kidding me? Save the planet? We don’t even know how to take care of ourselves yet. We haven’t learned how to care for one another, we’re gonna save the fucking planet? I’m getting tired of that shit. Tired of that shit. Tired! I’m tired of fucking Earth Day! I’m tired of these self-righteous environmentalists; these white, bourgeois liberals who think the only thing wrong with this country is there aren’t enough bicycle paths. People trying to make the world safe for their Volvos. Besides, environmentalists don’t give a shit about the planet. They don’t care about the planet. Not in the abstract they don’t. Not in the abstract they don’t. You know what they’re interested in? A clean place to live. Their own habitat. They’re worried that some day in the future, they might be personally inconvenienced. Narrow, unenlightened self-interest doesn’t impress me. Besides, there is nothing wrong with the planet. Nothing wrong with the planet. The planet is fine. The PEOPLE are fucked. Difference. Difference! The planet is fine. Compared to the people, the planet is doing great. Been here four and a half billion years. Did you ever think about the arithmetic? The planet has been here four and a half billion years. We’ve been here, what? A hundred thousand? Maybe two hundred thousand? And we’ve only been engaged in heavy industry for a little over two hundred years. Two hundred years versus four and a half billion. And we have the CONCEIT to think that somehow we’re a threat? That somehow we’re gonna put in jeopardy this beautiful little blue-green ball that’s just a-floatin’ around the sun? The planet has been through a lot worse than us. Been through all kinds of things worse than us. Been through earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, continental drift, solar flares, sun spots, magnetic storms, the magnetic reversal… Read more »

Earth Day? Sonofagunofabitch! I thought it was Lenin’s Birthday! Or is that a coincidence we’ree just supposed to ignore? Not bya chance, as the old bearded, bald-headed, Bolshie bitch liked to say!
I think I ought to go rev up my truck for a couple of minutes, just for the symbolism of course.

Rurik

Oh all right … Happy Urf Day fellow dirt lovers.

tangonine

I burn a tire every year to commemorate hippie day.

streetsweeper

Melony & me cranked up every light bulb we have in and out of the house, have the A/C and television turned on in a show of our non-support for brother Lenin’s Burfday…At work, we made sure we used up as much electricity as we could, servicing company vehicles, changing lots of brake shoes, drums and related hardware along with the usual electrical parts used by said vehicles. In all, I made one hell of a carbon foot print…

B Woodman

To all EnvironMENTALists, Alfs, ELFs, PETAns, vegans, and anyone else I may have thoughtlessly left out on this MOST important arbitrarily selected day. . . .
SAVE THE EARTH. Reduce your carbon “footprint”. Commit suicide.
Oh, . . . but then your decomposing body will release its (whatever) into the air and soil, further contaminating Gaia. Oh dear, what to do, what to do?

Besides, as a further take on what Michael in MI #19 said; Say we, as a human species, DO manage to exterminate ourselves in a blaze of super-toxic poisons and radioactivity. So what? The Earth will continue to spin and orbit, and will eventually, over many millennium, HEAL ITSELF.

UpNorth

Turned on all the lights, cranked up the furnace, burned my trash in the fire pit, waved at Algorithm’s satellite spying on us, and finished the evening off by pissing off the deck.

“How will you celebrate the day?”

Does murdering your girlfriend and storing her body in a trunk count as celebrating or does that just go towards reducing humanity’s collective carbon footprint?

valerie

I sprayed weed-killer on my tiff-grass lawn. I also fertilized my tomatoes. Killed a spider, too.
