Roller coffin ?

Safety is overrated.
Look! No mirrors!

A scooter with a roof. Big deal. I’d rather get a proper motorbike.

@Annarchy: There is no such thing as “100km on 7kW”. You probably mean 100km on 7kWh - which is sweet, as it works out to maybe one buck for 30-50 miles. If you meant to say 7kW, you would be wrong, as this thing puts out 15kW (21 horsepowers) - puny but enough for a city scooter.

If it had air conditioning, I’d file it in the “maybe” section.

Do not want.

A Smera is what you would be if you were hit in one of these things.

as a general rule- people are stupid.

so, this “car” will sell…..

Even a smart would roll over this thing like a truck.

So called because you get “smera’d” all over the highway when you’re T-boned by a passenger car!

It says it uses “domestic plugs (230 V 16A)” to charge. I’m kinda blanking on my grade 10 science but isn’t that the voltage for Europe, where this is made? Wouldn’t that make charging over here difficult?

I have the overwhelming urge to tip this thing over. With one hand.

Because it has a roof every moron and their neighbor thinks it is a car. Fuck you, idiots. It’s a weatherproof motorcycle. When you see a motorcycle do you automatically reject it because it is unsafe in a collision? When you see a motorcycle do you automatically want to “tip it over?” What a fucking bullshit machismo.

This would probably be brilliant in Paris where people are pretty, traffic is a bitch and where it rains every now and then. One would be able to get from A to B in time with clean and dry clothes and a non-helmet hairdo.

motorcycles have 2 wheels

also, from the link:

“The use of electric motors with a group of batteries is the most earth friendly technology. Of course, there is no pollution, no C02 gas, no smoke, no noise.
Each motor weighs less 30Kg and is made up to 98 % of pure metals, aluminium, copper and iron. Its recycling is simple.
An electrical car also avoids all the pollution created by a thermal engine car: oils, catalytic exhausts, heavy metals.

The brushless motors offer the advantage to have no friction parts that makes it possible to have no maintenance and an excellent reliability.
Our electric motors are designed for a 200 000 km lifetime.
Only one moving piece: the inside rotor on its ball bearings.
“

@Marcika - you are absolutely right. Typo, sorry!

Sauce?

Wow! So I assume these degrade into the water?

i read the news today oh boy
400,000 balls in ivanhoe
and though the balls were rather small
they had to count them all
now they know how many holes it takes to fill the reservoir

I’m relieved that it’s not a crazy all male, all black naked parade like the title suggests.

And in a dramatic twist of irony, the plastic that the balls are formed from end up causing cancer to whomever uses the reservoir.

Thank you, Billy Manic. That made my day.

All that plastic leaching deadly plastic chemicals into the water is an improvement?

If these balls save people from cancer, why don’t they give them to people, instead of throwing them in a reservoir?

The black balls are black, they will heat up the water, degrade ever so fast and render the water undrinkable.
Bravo.

I read the Gizmondo link. I don’t think this guy has any idea what he’s doing and hasn’t considered all the ramifications. He writes like he’s 14 so I don’t think he’s smart enough to. Kids, when you’re about to do something that effects other people and you’re not sure it’s a 100% good idea, please consult a grown-up or a scientist before proceeding, kthxbye

yup- some people are REALLY stupid…..

They’re supposed to do what exactly? The city gov’t of LA are ok w/ this? The people of LA are ok w/ this? If I lived in LA, I’d start buying bottled water exclusively.

http://www.nelsonenvironmental.....system.htm

^ tl;dr: the balls provide shade to the reservoir, which prevents certain carcinogens from forming.

it’s gay… balls are touching. >_>

@ Peach : Ever hear of Tupperware? Same material. Ever hear of tin foil? Do you wear it as a hat?

What a coincidence … and I was just thinking the other day about making some improvements on my scrotum.

bebe sammiches

Mmm babies!

Only thing worse than a dead baby. Is a dead baby gone to waste .

placenta soup?

babies = delicious

The other, other white meat.

GET IN MAH BELLY!

the only thing that would make this more win would be if the top billboard started with WAT! instead of WHAT!

18 days and there is a heartbeat?

WAT

They almost had me, and then I saw the bit about “Heartbeat in 18 days”. I call shenanigans. Christians, over the life of their religion, have killed millions of innocents that had had heartbeats way longer than that. It’s like they really just want to make sure the babies make it into the world so they can get started oppressing them. It’s not like they help the babies they “save” for all the years after their born. Christians are so full of shit sometimes I wonder how they can still have white skin.

@ Aleck: Christians are not exactly the only fucking psycho jihadists the world have ever seen.

You’re using the same excuse a black person would use for getting reparations today: You oppressed my ancestors, give me money. Just because they were fucking lunatics back then doesn’t mean they are now.

one does not have to be a christian or go to church to be pro life

people from anywhere on the planet are individuals who can have any number of different combinations of beliefs. even people of the same families often differ in their beliefs dramatically.

i am against abortion, but i am pro-choice. i think it is murder, but i dont think it is my place to tell someone else what to do or how to make their choices.

also i think the woman should have to have the father’s permission before being able to have the abortion. it’s his child too, right? and to anyone who thinks that last statement is bullshit, fuck you. L2takeresponibilityforwhereyouputyour cooter

Chicken Embryos VS Human Embryos

Which one has a soul, and which one makes a delicous chicken mcnugget?

I’m with natedog on this one… There are times when I’d agree with an abortion, like if the pregnancy has a high chance of killing the mother before she can bring it to term, or if a woman gets pregnant as a result of a rape, then yeah, an abortion should be an option.

But if you just don’t want the baby? Or “it was an accident”? Or, “I can’t take care of this baby for financial/medical/emotional/psychological issues”? Tough shit. There’s this little thing called responsibility which seems to be an anathema to the modern mindset. You don’t want a kid? Then maybe you shouldn’t have gone out, gotten drunk and opened your knees for some fella who seemed quite charming at the time. Our actions have consequences, sometimes unforeseen, that we have to be responsible for. And sometimes, those consequences suck; like having a nine-pound screaming larva tear it’s way out of your vagoo.

If you want to make absolutely sure you don’t get/get someone pregnant, don’t have sex. It’s not a difficult a concept. Because no one *needs* to have sex. There is (unfortunately) no terminal illness that can only be cured with sex. People *want* to have sex (not that I blame them ), but if they do, then they have to take responsibility for the fact that someone might get pregnant. Even if you use protection, a condom might break, the Pill might fail for some incredibly unlikely reason, or he might not quite pull out in time. But the main purpose of having sex is to get the woman pregnant, so even if you’re taking precautions, you still need to realize that doing so always carries a risk of winding up with a bun in the oven.

There’s plenty of infertile couples out there who would love the chance to adopt a kid, so if you really can’t take care of a kid, put it up for adoption. Having to squeeze one out, and having to hear about it for the rest of his life, would be a lovely lesson in personal responsibility for women and men respectively.

And while we’re at it, let’s get rid of the morning after pill for anything except an emergency measure in rape cases. That should probably cut down on the number of, “I wasn’t on the pill and went out to the club and met a guy and despite him not being clever enough to bring a condom with him when the only reason for going to the club is to try to get laid, I boinked him anyway because I knew I could just get the morning after pill the next day but then I got herpes” stories, and that’s a good thing.

Solid wall of text is solid, lolz.

There’s a pill in the last stages of production, or already out on the market that is a form of birth control for guys.

It can be taken a few hours before sex and work up to three days. No side effects either other than all the little guys die off for a bit.

HOWEVER, there’s no pressure or stress on this product and it’s use because there’s so much stress in our society that the woman has to packed and ready for the fucking, and if she gets pregnant it’s her fault, and the baby her’s responsibility.

And as a female, I do *groan and facepalm* when girls get knocked up because they’re responsible and want to slap, and for some, kick them in the stomach.

BUT, a sperm cell is equal to an egg cell, and it takes two to create a baby. The male is just as responsible as the female in the creation of the baby. But there’s so much fault put into the woman, that it’s pretty disgusting.

I’m pro-choice, especially in rape situations, and pro-choice to an extent. Partial birth abortions are fucking disgusting and the people who take part in them are murders.

Depending on the situation, A woman should have full control over what happens to her baby. Having an abortion to get back at your husband is disgusting, and if he wants to raise the child, let him. But not allowing your divorcing wife to have an abortion to remain in control and dominant over her is equally disgusting.

It’s a difficult problem, and varies on situations.

Don’t forget incest either as a reason to get an abortion.

*EDIT Because I suck when I type fast*

And as a femael I do want to groan and facepalm when girls get knocked up because they’re irresponsible and stupid. I want to slap them, and for some, kick them in the stomach.

@Thrella

Nice try, but your argument is basically if you kill someone, you don’t have to go to jail, if there are others that have killed. Yes the Islamists are fucking nuts, but they haven’t been around anywhere near as long as Christians. And it’s the Christians that put up the billboard in this case.

Oh and you lost me with the bit about reparations. I’m not saying Christians owe me money, I’m saying they’re full of shit. I wouldn’t want “free” handouts of money from a Christian anyway. There’s always strings attached.

And another thing, christians are always going on about how the crusades and inquisition and other embarrassments are a product of a bygone era. They’re passed that now. They no longer go into other countries, with lies and deceit as an excuse, and kill millions of innocents in the name of Jesus… wait, isn’t that exactly what President Dumbass did?

Good book and okay movie.

Never read the book, but I loved the movie as a kid.

FUCK YES GOLD WIN

I wish I had been recruited by the Star League to defend the Frontier against Xur and the Kodan Armada…

Loved the movie as a teenager, but saw it recently and wow…awful. Good 80s flick in the same way Buckaroo Banzai was a good 80s flick.

Oh wow, what a movie.

you fucks go back and watch it; i guarantee it is not as cool as you remember.

Good movie. I remember it from when I was young.

Had to ask, what is this site age demographic? tiki?

judging by some of the comments, the site demographic is the 10-14 range…

but I’m 27 so what do I know

For anyone who’s watched the movie recently, when Alex returns to earth he’s attacked by a space merc. While being chased, he’s creeping around with a 2X4 with a nail in it.

Any Simpons fan should remember Treehouse of Horror II. Homer screaming “Oh my god, they have boards, WITH NAILS IN THEM!”

Coincidence?

This would not have to be, if this machine dispensed condoms instead.

In a children play area!?!?

As seen on Mtv cribs: micheal jackson edition ?

It makes sense?
They’d have them in like.. a mcdonalds.
Because the kids are REQUIRED to have socks on, so if they came in like, sandals or something, and they needed socks so they wouldn’t feel outcast or something.

BAM.
Fiddy cent socks.

At the McDonalds around here with playrooms, the staff sell pairs of socks for 50c for exactly that reason. A vending machine would work perfectly well.

i was eating at a local mexican restaurant this past weekend, and since i have 4 underage b&’s living in my house, i am a frequenter of these coin operated bandits.

so check it: i put my 50 cents in one the other day, and you know what popped out?

a fucking New Kids On The Block sticker. it was Donnie Wahlberg. no shit. i had like a 1987 date or some shit on it too.

i should have kept it, but i let one of the kids eat it.

Sweet, I’m looking forward to that. I love Holland. Greetings from Austria.

You live in Holland right?
Here’s your first assignment: 420
Looking forward to it.

betsy, the trick is to keep your camera ON course, not OFF course.

Actually that is a DamselFly a close relative to the Dragon Fly…..

In Holland we call it a little lantarn, because of the blue tailend. Ischnura elegans in latin

It really worries me that the best they can say about this movie is that it’s his “first rated R movie”. Come on, guys! It’s not scary, it’s not suspenseful, it’s not thought provoking or action packed. No. It’s rated R. I guess that means someone says Fuck in it.

Unfortunately, you’re prolly right. #1 son is going to see it over the weekend and I don’t know yet if I’m gonna go too.

I just got in from watching it.
Worst piece of crap ever. M Night needs to An Hero. What is really sad is there are good acters in this but all in shitty roles that don’t fit their styles.

@ Ironzombie

a good actor doesn’t have a style.

Shyamalan has failed to make a decent film yet, everything he touches gets over hyped by the hollywood set. This is no different.

@Cargen
No a great actor doesn’t have a style, good actors tend to fit certain characters better. As for bad actors, well they end up in B movies or porn

This movie sucked. The plot was alright but the dialouge was HORRID, and it was funny in some parts where it shouldn’t have been.

If this movie had come in art houses and no had ever heard of it, I might (when I come to watch it) find it enjoyable. As it is now, Hollywood, the internet, and even the fucking newspaper have spoiled and ruined this movie for me. I don’t even know if I’ll watch it, now. Me and the GF were both hoping for something spookier than the ant/protaganist here.

hey RSIxidor, show her your dick ants

What happened to the second “P”?

I went to this movie to see some awesome people-killing-themselves action. What I got was a series of mild PG-13 deaths and scenes with people shooting themselves off camera.

I knew it was going to be shitty, but it cant even deliver on the not so aesthetic of people’s desires.

I really don’t understand why people this this director is any good. He has yet to make a movie that I would recommend to anybody.

Remember that scene in The Village where the ‘tard stabbed that dude to death?

Yeah. Laughed my ass off…then restarted that scene so I could watch and laugh again.

As I’ve said to many people many times before, I could take a shit in the palm of my hand while filming the event with a disposable camera and make a stop-motion movie better than anything Shyalalaladingdong has ever filmed.

Replica? What do you mean?

I just purchased one of these in San Francisco. Nice ol’ chap gave me 50% off the regular price, I only paid $750!

Well, either it’s ten to two or Mickey’s got a hard-on.
