Someone thinks you are an idiot because you were too stupid to check Google before asking a question. They gave you a link to this site as a joke. The fact that you followed it pretty much proves the point.



Hope that helps.



Have a nice day.




After working a few years in IT all I can say is that it's about time this site exist. Also go check out Booble.com.

The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement

AthensDrain writes, ""May we live long and die out"



Yeah thats their slogan. Come read about this group who wants the human race to be no more.



Here is a clip from the site.



"VHEMT (pronounced vehement) is a movement not an organization. It's a movement advanced by people who care about life on planet Earth. We're not just a bunch of misanthropes and anti-social, Malthusian misfits, taking morbid delight whenever disaster strikes humans. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Voluntary human extinction is the humanitarian alternative to human disasters.



We don't carry on about how the human race has shown itself to be a greedy, amoral parasite on the once-healthy face of this planet. That type of negativity offers no solution to the inexorable horrors which human activity is causing.



Rather, The Movement presents an encouraging alternative to the callous exploitation and wholesale destruction of the Earth's ecology.



As VHEMT Volunteers know, the hopeful alternative to the extinction of millions of species of plants and animals is the voluntary extinction of one species: Homo sapiens... us.



Each time another one of us decides to not add another one of us to the burgeoning billions already squatting on this ravaged planet, another ray of hope shines through the gloom.



When every human chooses to stop breeding, Earth's biosphere will be allowed to return to its former glory, and all remaining creatures will be free to live, die, evolve (if they believe in evolution), and will perhaps pass away, as so many of Mother Nature's "experiments" have done throughout the eons. Good health will be restored to the Earth's ecology... to the "life form" known by many as Gaia."



Now thats good stuff. Go check it out for yourself HERE VHEMT

Michael Moore should be President

AthensDrain writes, "Posted by rupertJFK over at OnlineAthens Forums



Now I ran across this while surfing but give me a damn BREAK who really likes this Fk-up?



Aside from this brilliant man's devilishly, inescapable, rugged good looks, he is a man of principal, and a man of honor. He possesses the foresight and knowledge that would be best suited to lead a nation that is currently lost, and walking in the darkness of the night. No one else is wise enough to realize that if you ban the sell of all handguns and ammunition that only the criminals, terrorist, murders and rapists would be left with these machines of malicious and evil. You MAY say "that would mean society would be helpless in defending themselves from these hooligans that still have their guns," but contrair. They would THEN in-turn make themselves assessable by committing heinous acts with these instruments of Satan and make themselves known. That way our THEN gunless police officers and military would be able to identify them and kindly ask them to stop. There is no other man with this type of ingenuity that President Moore would orchestrate. Why seek out those who may or MAY NOT want to commit crimes against us before the acts are even committed? Where is the sense in this? President Moore would be patient enough to wait for the crimes to actually be committed and THEN kindly ask them why they did it and beg them to stop. See, no stooping to their level. He has every ingredient a great President requires. How he sneaks around, lurking about, waiting to ambush unsuspecting interviewee's as he brilliantly recites his rehearsed and practiced scripts in attempts to exploit and embarrass these people. What the Right calls cowardly and crude, we Liberals call ingenious. Why have a fair debate when you know you can't defend your points when the opponent is prepared and aware of questioning, when you're smart of enough to avoid such wastes of time? A true politician dances around facts and accusations. Why bother? Moore simply cuts and edits interviews, or what the Right would call "ambushing slander," to suit what he really wanted them to say, or not to say. What MOORE could you ask for in a man? He is the very essence of what being a real Liberal is truly supposed to be. He even is the ideal physical specimen. Fat, ugly, unkempt, doesn't shave, this is what being a man and a Liberal is all about. The Right claim that his physical beauty is why he is so angry with the world and takes his frustrations out on conservatives when they should be directed towards his parents. What do they know? They say he couldn't make it in Hollywood as a real director so decided to devote his talent, or what they would call "lack there of," on creating fictional interviews and accusations to a particular target audience that he knows cares nothing for facts. Pure stroke of genius. Who better to lead our great country MOORE than the very people that loath it the most, the Liberals lead by Michael Moore. I know I cannot speak for anyone on this forum, but I know whom I am going to pencil in come November as my President. That's President Michael Moore.

On line Dating does it work?

Terra writes, "Hello! I would like to know if anyone at Athens101 has tried on line dating? So far I have had nothing that comes close to luck. Why do people lie so much on their profiles? Don't they know you plan to meet them in person!



I would like to know if anyone here has suggestions about doing on line dating the right way?

Lunch Paper Review

AthensDrain writes, "Posted in our forums here bt Technoblake



Monty and the gang have done an excellent job cleaning up the old ER space. One of the most amazing things is the Gulf sign...it's mildly clean. The old LP sign is above the bar seating area and lends a good dose of atmosphere to what is a rather sparsely decorated room.



The booths from ER have been painted black. There is one pool table in the back with a really cool pool light. The bathrooms are black and useable, which I found to be a real good improvement.



The sound was full of echo. Monty stated that they were going to have to tweak the sound for the next couple of weeks. It's tough to EQ an empty hall, so adjustments will be needed to make it more conversation friendly.



The gargoyles have found their way on to many of the surfaces. The dart lanes, the top of the bar area, above the jukebox (which looks awsome in its new home), and various window sills have the little critters peering from all direction.



The bar will boast 18 draft beers on tap and a far better chance of getting cold bottles of beer. One of the drawbacks of the old place was a total lack of cooler space. This is not a problem now.



All in all, it was the same crew with more space. I have been told that the next year or so will be a process of addition. More artwork, posters, and nick-knacks will come as time goes on.

Homewood Hills had gas this morning

venn writes, "About 10 AM I noted that there was a odd LOUD hissing noise. I walked outside to see if I had honestly went crazy but low and behold the construction crew had found a gas main all by them selfs. Cops, Firemen, Gas company, etc... Nothing fun came out of it but blocked traffic. I was tempted to light up my pipe and walk over to the scene and ask whats up?"

Hey guys make shure!

I don't want to name names but someone submitted a news article that was not there own. If you did a copy and past you MUST post both where the article came from and a link back to original article.



I will spend tonight hunting down anything that looks odd.



I would also like to thank Mr. David for pointing this out.
