22 Apr 08 - 05:38 PM (#2323015) Subject: BS: The Best - the CLEANEST- World Ever From: Ebbie Another thread made me realize how much better our surroundings could be. If we just made a few little adjustments. · We don't want bugs in our ideal world. So they've got to go, eradicated by any means necessary. · We certainly don't want the nuisance droppings of companion pets. We've all had the experience of picking up something on our shoes- or even worse- on our toes and we certainly wouldn't wish that on our children or grandchildren. And the hair. And the dander. There would be far fewer allergens in our homes with those animals gone. · Which, of course, means that in our ideal world we don't want those animals that through no fault of their own have been sharing our world. For that matter, who says we need companion animals in the first place? What, aren't fellow humans good enough? Let us solve the problem. Let us banish them. · Birds too. They too have droppings (shudder; most of us have had the unhappy experience of ruined clothes, not even to mention the trauma that is part of it. · Almost as displeasing as the presence of animal droppings are the odors attendant to the presence of other animals. Have you ever lived upwind of a pig farm? Or a chicken growing operation? Or a cattle barn? Or a horse barn, for that matter. These are smells that are not meant for the sophisticated nose of today's homo sapien.. It is far past time for us to resolve this problem. · If we don't want those smells – and we most certainly do not- there is no choice on the matter. Those animals have to go. · With those animals gone we will, ipso facto, be vegetarian, or more properly speaking, vegan. And that's OK. Especially if we are willing to pay someone else to do the grubbing for us. Because it is true that there is a lot of mud and mess that comes with the vegetable world (and dirt under our finger nails yuck) but if we buy the clean, sanitized, shrink-wrapped packs that miraculously show up on our store shelves we can avoid the worst of it. Do you have any further improvements that come to mind? This is do-able, folks. |

22 Apr 08 - 06:16 PM (#2323076) Subject: RE: BS: The Best - the CLEANEST- World Ever From: Sorcha I think we should ban plants. After all, a 'weed' is just a plant where you don't want it, and aren't we ALL just sooo tired of pullng weeds? Let's just pave over everything and give up plants! Surely Science will come up with a way for us to survive on just air? Espcially if it has all that carbon in it from the vehicle exhausts! Gee, what a bunch of sissies we are. |

They cause drinking interuptus, bonking carefulus, money shortus, and similar afflictions. Noise coming out of one end, shit out of the other, and they are delivered without the plumbing completed, whick means nappies(diapers to Americans)to wash, or worse, trees cut down to make paper ones to fill landfill or leave in beauty spots. Then they grow into children!!! Useless for about 15 years. Bah, Humbug. |

23 Apr 08 - 06:15 PM (#2323639) Subject: RE: BS: The Best - the CLEANEST- World Ever From: Little Hawk Foreigners! They're a threat to our way of life. They enter our country illegally and they launch suicide attacks. They threaten our jobs. Some of them don't speak English, and many of the men have facial hair (unhygeinice, primitive, and disgusting!). They hate people who aren't like them and who don't share their cultural values. Such people simply cannot be tolerated. We should find a way of getting rid of all such people ASAP...preferably a way that causes us as little inconvenience and unpleasantness as possible. Long range high tech weapons are clearly the way to go on this. Either that or genetic or biological warfare of some kind. What you don't see and don't hear because it happens too far away can't inconvenience you, right? Then too, we could just build a giant dome around US, the good people, and shut the rest of the world out forever, along with all those nasty bugs, animals, plants, bad weather, and bad smells...but...that would mean that we might miss out on something the rest of the world could still offer us which we could then make more money on. That would not be good. To not exploit the exploitable when it's sitting out there in plain sight just waiting to be exploited would be unpatriotic and in denial of our highest and most noble purpose: an ever-expanding economy. So let's just kill them all. The bad people, I mean. You know, the ones who aren't like us? |

23 Apr 08 - 06:23 PM (#2323643) Subject: RE: BS: The Best - the CLEANEST- World Ever From: Little Hawk There's also dirt. Dirt is dirty. Matter of fact, it's filthy. This was touched on previously in someone's comments about vegetables. We need to get rid of all dirt and replace it with hydroponic tanks in completely dirt-free installations. Or...maybe we could avoid all that and instead come up with concentrated food pills that are nice and clean and require no cooking...courtesy of a multi-billion dollar "instant food" business. Fast food will be replaced by instant food...just one pill a day! No cooking, no waiting, no dirty dishes (yuck!), and almost no excrement afterward either! Definitely the way to go. Make it one concentrated pill a day with a glass of artificially sweetened diet soft drink and think of the TIME you will save...time which can be devoted to working harder and becoming even more SUCCESSFUL!!! Wow, eh? |

23 Apr 08 - 06:31 PM (#2323647) Subject: RE: BS: The Best - the CLEANEST- World Ever From: Sorcha I really like the last one, Hawkster! Just ONE pill a day!!! And of course it will be individually programmed to have all our Personal Needs in it....antibiotics, antacids, anti depressants, ALL our prescriptions in just ONE pill with our daily caloric food intake! And a LOT less POOP! I like it! I really really like it!!!! (but do i really have to use the saved time to make more pizza? shouldn't even NEED pizza with the One Pill Program) Maybe I could switch jobs and pour concrete instead. That really seems like a Comer in the Job Field. Pave the World! |

23 Apr 08 - 07:04 PM (#2323671) Subject: RE: BS: The Best - the CLEANEST- World Ever From: Ebbie You're so right, Sorcha. Paving the world or at least our share of it is the way to go. I've seen yards like that and the homeowners save SO much time. |

Nothing looks greener in the morning than a lawn made out of green cement, and you never have to mow it or fertilize it. You don't even have to drench it in costly weedkilling poisons.

Using concrete - and green concrete is a nice touch - we are sparing the world the weedkillers and fertilizers and other noxiousnesses that are currently getting into people's lungs and noses and/or seeping into our drinking water and our streams and oceans. We are brilliant, brilliant, I tell you. |
