One of Penn's a capella groups did a great cover of an Anggun song by that title. One of my favorites years ago.

Yay! Another thread where we can have a laugh at the OP and the merry gang of armchair climatologists.

It snowed in (insert place) so there's no way global warming is real.

Aspen, CO is having it's worst snow season in a decade.

Swings and roundabouts.

I’m aware. My point is that at the same time conservatives on this board are crowing about record winter lows, there are places in the world registering record summer highs. When liberals (as few as there are) posted about record summer highs in the past, legions on this board rightly called them out for it. Stop being hypocrites.



I think that is the point of these threads.

Libs think record high temps during the summer means global warming. So when record cold temps hit people mock them by claiming it is evidence of global cooling or whatever.

I doubt most reasonable people think temperature fluctuations are an indication of anything, except seasonal weather.

And that's why you have to look at trends

Isn't it funny how 99.9% of their graphs only plot the change not the actual temps? They do this in order to display a sharp rise on the graph.

But when you plot the actual temps over a hundred+ years the graph line is almost perfectly horizontal

They are all pretending to be libertarians.


the only liberty conservatives really seem to care much about is the liberty to discriminate tbh

republicans want to tell people where they can use the bathroom, when and where they can buy liquor, what drugs they can take, comply or die, ad infinitum...

libs just want everyone to be treated equally without regard for race, creed, gender, etc. lots of them just go about it the wrong way.

it's more like they want the beneficial treatment to be equal over a long period of time tbh. to them.. shitting on white males for a decade makes up for years of white males using their position to abuse minorities and women.
i'm not a fan of feminazis or pretty much anyone who uses the word patriarchy in a sociological context

The minorities and women must love "abuse". If not why are they so attracted to a white male dominated society?

Why is Europe being obliterated by an influx of middle easterners.
Why are orientals and South Americans risking their lives to get to the USA and Canada.
Its so weird that they would choose a life of "abuse" when they could enjoy the freedom and safety of Africa, Iran, Venezuela.

Isn't the basis behind global warming erratic weather changes? By trying to mock the science OP has actually help provide proof.

I’ve heard too many conservatives make the exact argument made in the OP, in person and lacking sarcasm or irony, to buy that even the majority of people on threads like this are reflected in your post. But I hope I’m wrong. I would feel a lot better

It's not global warming. It has been rebranded climate change. Get your stuff together.

They also abhor free speech and want to eliminate the right to own a gun, freedom of religion, and freedom of expression.

And by "they", I mean 90% of the people that call themselves liberal today. They aren't actually liberal. They are little dipshit progressive totalitarians.

Real liberals don't have a party anymore.

I’ve enjoyed watching the upvote count for that post go up, as though noting that seasons are inverted in the Southern Hemisphere somehow contradicts the fact that it’s a hundred and fricking seventeen degrees in Sydney

It’s ridiculous. I’m pretty sure I’ve never been in 110 degree plus heat before, save for maybe on a carlot where there’s tons of asphalt.

The posters here are so fricking retarded. It wouldn’t shock me if the morons who upvoted that post didn’t know that beforehand. I guess I should inform many of them that we revolve around the Sun instead of the other way around.
