Oddly for a SYB post, this one doesn’t have an actual quote in it. There’s one topic that doesn’t need a quote because essentially the exact same comment has been posted a billion times on every news forum, not to mention repeated a billion times by every tedious cunt in the pub. You can reconstruct it from first principles pretty easily. Just imagine you have the IQ of a shampoo bottle and you see white stuff falling out of the sky.

Coldest winter in a generation, eh? Bet all the global warmalists are feeling stupid now! Because it’s like, really cold, see, and they’re all saying the world’s getting warmer! But it’s not, because it’s cold! See how clever I am, noticing that a cold winter is the opposite of a warmer planet?

Some cunt, Swirling Around In The Shitting Bumwank

Now you could argue with these people – I mean, you could argue with a dachshund if you wanted to lose an equal amount of your precious life in a pointless, one-sided debate – but don’t. Just smile the smile of a man imagining his interlocutor smugly raising his finger to denounce Science from the middle of a fridge-sized ice cube. Maybe being used as a sledge by some Tongans.

    Supporters of the soldiers were also heard on the video shouting at the protesters: “Get out of the country if you don’t like it”, “Scum, scum, scum” and “No surrender to the Taliban”.

    “If you like it so much…” quote spot in news coverage, as well as a direct quote of spoken out loud word-action from one the public.

    @kukomanga You have to read between the lines and stuff.

    What made Diana’s car crash? Clearly the tunnel was filled with snow and black ice, probably by Prince Phillip working with the University of East Anglia climate change department. And what do you think the white Fiat Uno was made of? No doubt the snowman who drove it was built by the 5 year old son of an MI6 agent.

    On the plus side, the comments on those articles make HYS seem sane:

    SINCE WHEN DID HEROISM AND CLEVERNESS SAVE THE DIANSAURS?

    AND DO YOU THINK IT WILL SAVE THE PLANET.?

    NOW, i will say it again…..scientists are manmade.

    Unfortunately, the Express, as evidenced by its circulation figures, has becomes the newspaper equivalent of a bunch of HYS posters. The Mail, for all its shitting bumwank ( ;) ) at least manages to squeeze a fact or two in at the end of each story, after the inflammatory and misleading headline and standfirst. It’s only a short amount of time before the front page headline of the Express reads: “WOULD YOU LIKE FRIES WITH THAT?”

    It’s a combination of about five comments that have either been sent in on the submissions address, shown up in some of the regular twats’ recent histories, and Neil Craig. I think I’d better edit the post to make it more clear though.

    OK, I tried editing it but I couldn’t make it any clearer that it’s not a real quote than by saying so in the first fucking sentence so I guess it stands.

    For those of you who didn’t get Kelvin’s original post just pretend that this piece of loose stool water was quoted instead of Kelvin’s composite. From our local Daily Mail a-like the Western Morning News

    NOW that we are in the grip of one of the coldest winters for 25 years (according to reports) we seem to be spared further examples of polar ice caps melting, sea levels rising, etc.

    During this respite from providing such scare stories, presumably the likes of Al Gore, Maurice Strong and Dr Rajendra Pachauri – all key names behind the man-made global warming theory – can find time to assess how many billions they will each make from their vested interests in the vast carbon trading schemes they have helped to create.

    I think you’ll find the weather in Manchester is evidence enough for my friends, my paper and Sarah Palin. I will agree with you when my house is underwater and 2009 is shown to be one of the top 10 hottest years on record.

    I would rather listen to Top Gear presenters than so-called “sceintsits” anyday. They are honest, decent folks and review cars for the general populace every week. Are you saying these fine people are biased? Do they have “vesty” intersets? If anyone could prove James May wrong they would have broken his Meccano set by now.

Also, get rid of small sized spirit bottles, and the 500ml cans of beer and cider and only keep the 750ml spirits and 330ml beer bottles.

    I love it, absolutely love it, when people say ‘err yeah but evolution / climate change are just THEORIES,’ and then sit back all smug as if they’ve just said something ground breaking, and you know their opinion is because it’s called a ‘theory’ they think it was must have been invented by some bored scientists on their day off who wanted an extra pay check and just said ‘yeah, I reckon we come from monkeys, that’ll do, now let’s shove this theory down some Christian’s throat.

    I also agree with Chris Phillips that this may be a good year to plan for cooler temperatures.
