"oh who cares. its not that big of a deal. its not like it can really hurt anything."
>:( )*(&IHP(*#*$^@&#^$!(*#&{)(@!#&$()&*()!@+)(&
somebody says another dumb ignorant piece of utter stupidity like that to me.....well...the universe has been warned.....
Ugh. I hate it when people are like that.
It seems like he's only talking that way because it isn't affecting him directly. If it was brought close to home, I'm sure he would react differently.
You only have to hope that his ideals will change eventually. Not much else you can do. :/
yeah me to think that self centered people like that are just stupid selfish idiots , but eh ,most people are like that anyway , even us or people who care about things, they are only concerned to some level ,especially if it affects their life directly or indirectly somehow
humans are selfish by nature . but that dude IS actually too stupid because one way or the other that will affect him
Don't blame BP. If you have a car out in your driveway, you're just as guilty as they are. IF NOT MORE SO.
it probably doesnt help that i work in an auto repair shop and happen to be the only anatomically female person there. I work with a bunch of macho cis super southern ARSES.
this is really more of a rant about how much I HATE THE PEOPLE I WORK WITH. i LOVE tinkering around with cars. i LOVE the fact i get to work on my car in off hourse and get discounts on parts. LOVE it.
HATE rednecked, sexist Lynard Skynard listening KFC eatin racist PIGS with about two neurons between the eight of them....*grrrrrrrrrrooooooooowwwwwwwllllsss*
scuse the prolific slandering. they just really tick me off...
eta
i do blame BP. I blame their lousy arses for submitting a rehashed piece of garbage proposal..ill see if i can find the article again...i also blame the eggheads in the G for approving that JOKE.

Yeah, folks who act all ignorant like that bug me out to...
I wonder how he'd like it if you poured the oil from an oil change in his bathtub >:-)
You fix cars? Why not just go out and pour in the oil in the gulf yourself?

im learning cars. the idea is to make a BETTER car. first though..i have to understand the flaws in the current situation.
and i have a hybrid...not the best it could be...but better than most.
working on MY car..hopefully once i get all the kinks figured out..ill have a car that needs no oil or gas. sometimes you have to dance on the devil's playground to be able to learn how to fly.
Most of the East coast of Scotland and England has been drenched in oil for several decades now. Fish stocks in the N Sea are at an all time low.
If we want to drive cars then we have to accept responsibility.
with oil spill...here's my deal....if someone doesnt come up with a way to make it so that we dont NEED to do stuff like drill for oil...and not only not need it...but have alternatives that make oil look so stupidly expensive and ridiculous from a financial standpoint...then its going to keep happening.
i send all the aid i can down there...but people arent going to go for alternatives unless they are easier AND less expensive than what we use right now
working at a car shop...i have the tools and access to parts that i need to be able to work on my car experiments. id never be able to do that in any other position i could currently get. Im a student in college..which is synonymous with poor as crap. not even mentioning the single parent thing.
but anyways...
this is BRILLIANT and totally made me laugh..
