This is a bit disturbing...

guyjin · 07/16/2008, 05:33 PM

I don't believe it.

Nazi NecroPhile · 07/16/2008, 06:25 PM

Neither do I. For what they describe to happen, there would have to be collusion from all ISPs, which is highly unlikely considering that it's illegal and would require cooperation between thousands of for-profit companies in countries all over the globe.

Joe Redifer · 07/16/2008, 06:32 PM

Last time I clicked on something about "net neutrality" it was just a bunch of twenty-somethings who thought they were smart but weren't. They provided no evidence and just said that "information has leaked" and just expected everyone to take their word. Ah, the young and the naive. Is this the same link?

OldRover · 07/16/2008, 07:30 PM

This is little more than FUD. The whole net neutrality problem collapsed about two years ago. This looks like just another ploy to get the scare going again.

I didn't watch the whole video, just the part with the girl and her boobies

I immediately clicked on the link when I read this!

lol- kind of interesting though.

THAT'S THE VIDEO! It starts with her boobies and then it pans around to a bunch of male twenty-something dorks who think they are smart but are not. I hate people like these guys. They are losers.

But,

they have accents.

That means something!

Rainbow_Bright · 07/24/2008, 09:17 AM

everyone has an accent.....

Only the net ends? too bad, tell me when the world ends. That will be something for true celebration, now the net ending. Wouldn't bother me, if it did happen.

Roll on the end...

Ceti Alpha · 07/24/2008, 09:39 AM

hahaha

I guess I should say bye to everyone now since the end of the internet is going to happen begin in Canada. Well, I actually have a mobile phone package with TELUS and I do have to pay for any sites I visit that aren't included in my internet package. But so what? TELUS is not an ISP - TELUS is a mobile phone company. The information they cite from TELUS is the truth, but it has absolutely nothing to do with what they are talking about.

Tatsujin · 07/24/2008, 10:26 AM

those are the fockers of teh century!

why the internet, which doesn't really belongs to anyone, should end like that? muahaha!

Sinistron · 07/24/2008, 10:41 AM

Who cares? If you buy into the whole Mayan Calendar thing- the world will end December 21st 2012 anyway!

good luck i don't believe in the mayo calendar^^

Nor do I. If they were that wise and prescient, they'd still be around today. They were smart enough to make chocolate though.

That, or people start turning into elves and trolls, and dragons come out of mountains, and native americans take over nuke silos and try to destroy us all (after we put 'em in concentration camps, of course).

Nah, the Swiss just perfected the use of the South American native crop. Chocosuisse for the win!

Dammit, now I'm hungry for some chocolate.

quoth09 · 07/31/2008, 06:57 PM

I found that whole thing to be a bit fishy from the start of watching it. Namely because a certain You Tube celebrity is in it...Athene.

It's all of him and his little friends, which are all a joke. What's even funnier is that some of you thought it was serious.

Just more stupid internet viral crap. Go watch his videos, which some are funny, if you don't believe me:

Joe Redifer · 07/31/2008, 06:57 PM

Who or what is an Athene? Please, descriptions only. I don't want to be subjected to rotten Youtube videos by this individual.

oh did some of us really believed in that?

so those where teh poors

Dark Fact · 08/10/2008, 08:07 PM

A lot of people say that things are gonna end in the year 2012. The world, the Internet, television.

Please. This is just the same old tired crap spouted by fanatics who also gave us memorable doomsday prophecies like the world ending in the year 2000. I'm sick and tired of these individuals who insist on making our lives sound absolutely meaningless.

Sinistron · 08/13/2008, 11:21 AM

Doesn't a small part of anyone here kinda wish the Mayans are right? Wouldn't you want to be here for the end of the world- to be here when the shit goes down? Call your best local caterer and secure the date for the endtimes orgy!

Of course- if the world continues the next day- you may be stuck with a severe hangover and some std's.

On the last day I plan on repenting my sins and accepting Jesus as my savior. Until then, screw it.

Joe Redifer · 08/13/2008, 07:47 PM

What if you accidentally accept the wrong savior? I guess it is HELL for eternity for you!

guyjin · 08/13/2008, 08:24 PM

exactly. it's the inverse pascal's wager - the possibility that you will pick the one right church of the one right god when there are litterally thousands of the former and dozens of the latter, is so small that you may as well not pick and be happy now.

Turbo D · 08/13/2008, 08:30 PM

Guyjin is right! Now, everyone enjoy sex, drugs and TurboGrafx-16!!!

Joe Redifer · 08/13/2008, 09:00 PM

Sex and TurboGrafx are good. Drugs are nasty. If you can't have fun while sober, then you fail at life.

What about some Tylenol to dull the pain?

Tatsujin · 08/14/2008, 10:05 AM

so we will probably never been able to see this scene in real?

I love that scene in BTTF2

! Another good kid celebrity moment is toward the end of The Wizard when you can see Toby Maguire hanging in Lucas' posse.

I'm not a fan of the movie, but I'll bet he's wearing Spiderman underoos.

Dark Fact · 08/14/2008, 11:21 PM

God, I wanted to smack that kid. How dare he talk to Michael J. Fox in such a condescending tone!
